Fortunately for legacy GPUs like GeForce 2 MX

So, you're saying (PCIe) 8600GT is also legacy, and thus requires nv instead of nouveau? 11.4 & 12.1 both claim to use server 1.9.3. Is that really true? If so, why does 11.4 work as expected but 12.1 not? -- 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 guess it might be a regression in Kernel DRM.

I booted M3 on comment 3's host gx26b running nv 8600GT to 11.4's kernel-desktop-2.6.37.6-6, and got the same failure. -- 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.
