I bought an LG W2361V TFT-display and connected it to my laptop via HDMI. My laptop has a NVidia 9600 GT graphics card which is used to work fine with the nouveau driver. Also the display is properly recognized in the display-manager of gnome and enabled. However, there's no output on the TFT-display so I think that's a bug in the nouveau driver because it works fine under Windows 7. If you need more information I'll happily do my best!

Created attachment 373203 [details] dmesg output for the following files I booted the pc as usual, after that connected the external display. this didn't show any log messages, so I started gnome's display manager.
Created attachment 373204 [details] xorg log 0 oh, forgot this. If you need me to plug the external display in while booting just say so :)
Created attachment 373205 [details] xorg log 1
Created attachment 373206 [details] xorg log 9
it would be good to have a log from a boot with the external display connected, yeah. thanks! -- Fedora Bugzappers volunteer triage team https://fedoraproject.org/wiki/BugZappers
Created attachment 373847 [details] dmesg from boot Here are the logs from a boot with hdmi cable plugged in. Boot works fine till gdm. The background is shown properly but the gdm ui is invisible. However I can login by pressing 'enter' (then hearing the password input sound), entering password and pressing enter again. Then after a while the desktop shows up and I can use the pc just as normal but the external display isn't enabled and doesn't show anything.

Created attachment 373850 [details] xorg log 9 from boot
Can I get the same dmesg log again please, this time with "nouveau.reg_debug=0x200 3" appended. Thanks!
Actually, ignore the "3".. If the issue occurs as X starts I'll want to see that too :)
Created attachment 373877 [details] dmesg output with debug mode dmesg output wasn't long enough (or my terminal setting are to bad) so I pulled it from syslog. Hope I got everything which is interesting to you. However, much fun with this logfile ;)
Do you have any news or information regarding this?
The problem with gdm not showing up after booting is the same with vga, but when I plug in the vda-cable after logging in I can use the monitor just fine.
Can you update to the kernel at http://koji.fedoraproject.org/koji/buildinfo?buildID=157041 and retry please? If things are still bad, fresh X and kernel logs would be great! Thank you.
It works fine with VGA plug now. However there's still the same problem with HDMI. Do you want logs for the HDMI boot? Another thing I noticed is the switch from boot screen to gdm. There are some strange things shown on the screen, including parts from my desktop which shouldn't be visible before I logged in. See some photos from this here: http://palango.fedorapeople.org/nouveau/ Thanks for the great work!
This message is a reminder that Fedora 12 is nearing its end of life. Approximately 30 (thirty) days from now Fedora will stop maintaining and issuing updates for Fedora 12. It is Fedora's policy to close all bug reports from releases that are no longer maintained. At that time this bug will be closed as WONTFIX if it remains open with a Fedora 'version' of '12'. Package Maintainer: If you wish for this bug to remain open because you plan to fix it in a currently maintained version, simply change the 'version' to a later Fedora version prior to Fedora 12's end of life. Bug Reporter: Thank you for reporting this issue and we are sorry that we may not be able to fix it before Fedora 12 is end of life. If you would still like to see this bug fixed and are able to reproduce it against a later version of Fedora please change the 'version' of this bug to the applicable version. If you are unable to change the version, please add a comment here and someone will do it for you. Although we aim to fix as many bugs as possible during every release's lifetime, sometimes those efforts are overtaken by events. Often a more recent Fedora release includes newer upstream software that fixes bugs or makes them obsolete.
