[REQUEST] nouveau module
Jason W:
Hi. A few days ago I bought an Evga Geforce 210, quite an upgrade from my onboard i915. Without nouveau it would only do 1024x768 which was my standard with the old squarish monitors but it's not ideal with the new wide ones. I also booted the Ubuntu live desktop, and nouveau was in use and working fine.
When rebuilding the kernel for dCore-bionic64 I built the nouveau module. I have been using it today without any issues, works nicely. It allows my setup to have a resoultion of up to 1920x1080, and at my preferred 1440x900 glxgears reports 950 frames per second.
The package is nouveau-4.14.10-tinycore64. Be sure to use a new copy of dCore-bionic64.gz and vmlinuz-bionic64, as well as re-import any SCEs that contain kernel modules. It is working well enough for me to upload it for testing purposes.

Hi Jason
Thank you very much for this.
Would have been nice if you have announced the intention of building it, it had saved half of this afternoon try to build the proprietary Nvidia.
I'll try later the module when I'll be back home
Jason W:
Hi. I was going to build it and test on my own before making a mention of it, in the case it was not going to be stable or usable enough to post it.

Hi. That is an earlier build of dCore-bionic64 than the one you reported an error with in the other thread. Hold off testing until I can verify the latest RC. Thanks.
