This change was made by a bot.

[Maarten Lankhorst (mlankhorst)]

Does booting with nouveau.runpm=0 work? If not can you attach a dmesg + Xorg.0.log ?

[Maarten Lankhorst (mlankhorst)]

Never mind, found the cause. can you try the lp1313986 packages from http://people.canonical.com/~mlankhorst/lp1313986 ?

[Hayden James (hayden-james)]

Yes the driver works as expected with those packages at that URL.

This bug is awaiting verification that the kernel in -proposed solves the problem. Please test the kernel and update this bug with the results. If the problem is solved, change the tag 'verification-needed-trusty' to 'verification-done-trusty'.

If verification is not done by 5 working days from today, this fix will be dropped from the source code, and this bug will be closed.

See https://wiki.ubuntu.com/Testing/EnableProposed for documentation how to enable and use -proposed. Thank you!

[Hayden James (hayden-james)]

Sorry if I wasn't clear, but the packages provided by Maarten 100% fix the issue with me. I'll attempt to label this bug as "verification done"
