Okay so I guess I lied.. But on the plus side, my method did work and this email is not related to that... I was actually writing again because after looking at the debug info in whisperback, I thought to ask this... I only did the live-config parameter, I didn't do modesetting via nouveau or blacklisting nouveau. Was this perhaps detrimental to the experiment?22.08.2018, 12:16, "intrigeri" <intrigeri@???>:Soul Null: Okay, set modest as 0, logged in and set a password, killed x, removed and reloaded nouveau driver with modeset=1. Dmesg spits out a lot of related data (I can pipe it to a text file and send it if you wantYes, please give me more data about the various failure modes on3.9~rc1. But preferably by setting the modeset parameter on thekernel command line rather than killing X etc. :) Nouveau loads with modeset 1, the terminal fonts/resolution changes so fb clearly loads as intended, but x fails to load. The only errors of note in the xorg log relates to "failed to open drm device for pci:0000:07:00.0: -19" and /Dev/dri/card0 not found.I see exactly the same error message on your logs from Tails 3.8.But on Tails 3.8 I see that X.Org falls back to the modesettingdriver and I think that's why it kind of works there.What if you add this option on the kernel command line on 3.9~rc1: live-config.xorg-driver=modesetting? this unfortunately looks more and more like a nouveau bug and probably not something that's going to be fixed on your end.Agreed.Cheers,-- intrigeri
