OK, it would be nice to know.
Yep :-)
My monitor is 1920x1080p and when I used "nomodeset" in the past recent weeks installing MS #1 and #2 my screen defaulted to 1240xsomething and not to anythink like 640x480 - but that was for me so others' experiences will no doubt be different.
That's it. Even for you a drop to 1240 is a loss, you would notice that something was amiss. I understood that not enabling nomedeset was a compromise - as almost everything in engineering. It is an unfortunate situation. If nouveau worked always or mostly, and better, it would be a wonderful world. No more recompiling drivers on kernel change, no problems of sudden black screens, no more downloading drivers on install. But it is not so and many need the proprietary driver. If I'm not mistaken (I haven checked lately) I can use both, I'm fortunate. Almost, because the nouveau did not hibernate well for me, and did not have hardware accel. And it is not easy to test once you are using the proprietary driver, no bootup switch to choose one or the other at full power, to check on their improvements. - -- Cheers / Saludos, Carlos E. R.
