Description:
With early KMS no framebuffer appears at all. With late KMS framebuffer crashes to black screen when handing over to nouveaufb. Booting, allowing crash, produced attached edited dmesg. Downgrade to linux 3.16.4-1 fixes crash. Could be related to https://bugs.freedesktop.org/show_bug.cgi?id=85160 Additional info: * x86_64 * linux-3.17.1-1, xf86-video-nouveau 1.0.11-2 * dmesg for late KMS attached Steps to reproduce: Guess it might be card specific: 01:00.0 VGA compatible controller [0300]: NVIDIA Corporation GK104 [GeForce GTX 660 Ti] [10de:1183] (rev a1) |

/EDIT: it didn't matter if I used early or late KMS: in both setups, the system froze completely at the handover between nouveaufb and EFI VGA. I could only boot into bash using the 'nomodeset' kernel parameter. I'm back on nvidia-340xx which is working correctly.
01:00.0 VGA compatible controller: NVIDIA Corporation GK104 [GeForce GTX 770] (rev a1)
I'm using late KMS and BIOS boot (I have an EFI motherboard but use BIOS emulation because it's easier.)
