Description David Tonhofer 2008-12-31 14:54:30 UTC
Description of problem:

An integrated graphics engine "Nvidia GeForce 7025 (C86S)"
(comes with the nForce 630a chipset on an "Asus M2N-CM/DVI nF630a" motherboard)  
is not currently supported by Fedora 10. Ao attempt to use the "nv" driver can be seen in the log but this sadly fails.

How reproducible:

Always

Workaround:

Install a nonfree driver from the fusion RPM repository? Not tried yet.

See also bug#465634 which applies to the 7050, which is in the same ballpark according to

Thanks for the bug report.  We have reviewed the information you have provided above, and there is some additional information we require that will be helpful in our diagnosis of this issue.

Please attach your X server config file (/etc/X11/xorg.conf, if available) and X server log file (/var/log/Xorg.*.log) to the bug report as individual uncompressed file attachments using the bugzilla file attachment link below.

Could you please also try to run without any /etc/X11/xorg.conf (if you have one) whatsoever and let X11 autodetect your display and video card? Attach to this bug /var/log/Xorg.0.log from this attempt as well, please.

We will review this issue again once you've had a chance to attach this information.

Thanks in advance.

Using Fedora Live CD:

Created "xorg.conf.new" by calling "Xorg -configure" from the command line

The other Xorg.[1-5].log are exactly alike except for the dates, so I won't attach these.

Comment 7 Luke Ross 2009-01-17 11:28:45 UTC
Having had this problem recently, it seems that the autoconfigure is picking the nv driver which doesn't yet support 7025/7050. One can get installation going by passing "xdriver=vesa" to the installer on the command line (hit tab on the initial boot screen). The vesa driver will get you a graphical install, and then once installed you get an xorg.conf that uses vesa written to the new installation. From there you can either stick with vesa (slow, but open-source) or grab xorg-x11-drv-nvidia from rpmfusion-nonfree. I opted for the latter.
