@mhcabi - re comment #17 - there is a nouveau driver feature matrix at http://nouveau.freedesktop.org/wiki/FeatureMatrix
To know which column heading includes your card, you will need to refer to the NVIDIA chip code names table at http://nouveau.freedesktop.org/wiki/CodeNames
There is a similar page for the open-source radeon driver for ATI/AMD Radeon cards at http://www.x.org/wiki/RadeonFeature
The date of the last edit for each of these pages is displayed at the bottom of the pages.

The nouveau wiki page at http://nouveau.freedesktop.org/wiki/MesaDrivers states that at least Mesa 7.11 is needed for 3D support on the GeForce GT220, GT240 and GT320. This means Ubuntu 11.10 "Oneiric Ocelot" or later.

@tenertener - as you have different hardware please create a separate bug report.

@everyone - Does this still occur on Ubuntu 12.04 "Precise Pangolin"?
