Bug Description
Binary package hint: xserver-
Description: Ubuntu 10.04 LTS
Release: 10.04
Expected behavior :
System should start up without any screen flickering with nouveau driver
What is actually happening :
First during the boot process, i'm able to see the ubuntu logo, but it is displayed only on the half of the screen. Furthermore, weird horizontal lines appears randomly
When gdm comes, the screen is set to the right resolution, but the weird flickering continues
When i'm logged in, the screen is set to the right resolution, but the weird flickering continues. Furthermore, the bottom panel is not entirely displayed, and there is an extra area above the top panel. Endly, the mouse pointer is "misplaced" : for example, if I want to close an application, i need to point the cursor a few pixels above the close button.
All of this makes my desktop unusable
Proprietary nvidia driver works fine
I have exactly the same problem with another computer (nForce2 chipset, but with an lcd screen). But on this one, i can't have the right resolution (1024*768 instead of 1280*1024)
PS : This is a all new up-to-date install from final lucid live-cd
