Hi,
I have just tested F11 Beta KDE Live CD.
Good news: for the first time I had X start without any proprietary
drivers on my NVidia GeFore 6600! Thanks to everybody who made this
possible.
I run test cases as described for Nouveau Test Day:
BASIC: PASS
VIDEO: PASS (used KDE Dragon player)
RESTART X: PASS
RENDERCHECK: PASS (I will send result to Adam Williamson)
MULTIHEAD: MIXED RESULT (*)
(*) Clone works fine, I was even able to set 1600x1200 on 1st monitor
(DELL P1110) and 1920x1200 on the 2nd (NEC LCD2690WUXi) "independently"
for each display. I didn't find a way to try Xinerama/TwinView using
standard KDE config tool.
Unfortunately since I need TwinView, I will most likely still need
proprietary driver :( I'm tracking
https://bugzilla.redhat.com/show_bug.cgi?id=487356 so hopefully when
it's fixed I'll be able to switch to nouveau.
Bad news:
1. Selecting "rotate screen" in KDE display properties kills X
immediately. Anybody else seeing this on nouveau?
2. I had X hang up on me once with two (out of three) blinking diodes on
the keyboard. The only way out was reboot :(
