I compiled a custom kernel in F14 using the Fedora source RPM, and created a custom initramfs for it using dracut. It boots, and X tries to load nouveau, but it fails and falls back to VESA. Here is the pertinent section from Xorg.0.log while it was booting. 44.002] (II) NOUVEAU driver [ 44.002] (II) NOUVEAU driver for NVIDIA chipset families : [ 44.002] RIVA TNT (NV04) [ 44.002] RIVA TNT2 (NV05) [ 44.002] GeForce 256 (NV10) [ 44.002] GeForce 2 (NV11, NV15) [ 44.002] GeForce 4MX (NV17, NV18) [ 44.002] GeForce 3 (NV20) [ 44.002] GeForce 4Ti (NV25, NV28) [ 44.002] GeForce FX (NV3x) [ 44.002] GeForce 6 (NV4x) [ 44.002] GeForce 7 (G7x) [ 44.002] GeForce 8 (G8x) [ 44.002] (II) VESA: driver for VESA chipsets: vesa [ 44.002] (II) FBDEV: driver for framebuffer: fbdev [ 44.002] (++) using VT number 1 [ 44.008] drmOpenDevice: node name is /dev/dri/card0 [ 44.082] [drm] failed to load kernel module "nouveau" [ 44.082] (EE) [drm] failed to open device It isn't clear to me why it failed. Can anyone clarify for me what is wrong here and how I should fix it? I think my device is a 4MX in the list above.
