nouveau feedback

[Colin Darie <colindarie@gmail.com>]

I'm coming with a (great!) feedback for nouveau package.

Here is my config, on a MacBook Pro 5.5 :

Card : C79 GeForce 9400M  (rev b1)
kernel 2.6.32-4-amd64
xserver-xorg-video-nouveau        1:0.0.15+git20100219+9b4118d-1
xserver-xorg                      1:7.5+5
libdrm-nouveau1                   2.4.18-4
libdrm2                           2.4.18-3


Boot :                OK
VT Switch :           OK, but the text *before* the login prompt is not displayed http://farm3.static.flickr.com/2718/4476564506_b340db9ffa_o.jpg
Resolution :          OK (1280x800)
xrandr                Resolutions OK, Invert NOT OK (xrandr -o 2 restart X)
Video in fullscreen : OK
Flash :               OK
Glxinfo :             OK
Glxgears :            OK but slow (around 650 FPS, I guess it's "normal")
Suspend to RAM :      OK
Hibernate :           OK
Dual screen :         I can't test
Adjusting brightness: OK, including in the VT


I noticed if the nvidia proprietary driver is installed, nouveau is broken so I think you should build the xserver-xorg-video-nouveau package with a conflict with the nvidia-glx and/or nvidia-kernel-2.6.x.y-z-{arch} packages.


Let me know if I can help in an other way, and congrats for your amazing work !
