Maybe it's blacklisted for some reason? Check for a blacklist entry in /etc/modprobe.d. nvidia driver installed before? Is it added to initrd (verify by running 'mkinitrd'). -- Configure bugmail: https://bugzilla.novell.com/userprefs.cgi?tab=email ------- You are receiving this mail because: ------- You are on the CC list for the bug.

Either automatically for unsupported cards or by some checkbox. The list of cards supported by nouveau should be known. On nouveau wiki I see in matrix: NV94 (G94) GeForce 9600 (GSO 512, GT, S), 9700M GTS, 9800M GTS So looks like 9800M GT is not supported well for example. -- Configure bugmail: https://bugzilla.novell.com/userprefs.cgi?tab=email ------- You are receiving this mail because: ------- You are on the CC list for the bug.

I didn't have to go to manual nvidia install as last time in 12.2b2 (where it didn't even went to the post-installation setup due to unable to setup graphics mode). So at least in RC1 it works for my NV 9800M GT But in any case, some kind of 'safe graphics' option would be nice (either in installator, or directly as grub menu entry) -- Configure bugmail: https://bugzilla.novell.com/userprefs.cgi?tab=email ------- You are receiving this mail because: ------- You are on the CC list for the bug.
