[Bug 1041851] Re: [drm] nouveau :0000:00:0d.0 GPU-lockup switching to software fbcon

[YAFU]

Same problem in Kubuntu 12.10 beta 1
01:00.0 VGA compatible controller: NVIDIA Corporation GF108 [GeForce GT 430] (rev a1)
The messages I get are similar to those reported here:
https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/xserver-xorg-video-nouveau/+bug/1048701

Also it is not possible to start the LiveCD. Must start with "nomodeset"
for installing.
