[Gutsy Tribe 2] nv not working on MacBook Pro rev.3 (santa rosa)

Thank you for your bug report. (This might be a duplicate of Bug #125916).

Punting to xorg because this happens with the open source nv driver.

Mike:
Could you please post the output of
lspci -nnv | grep -A 3 -i nv
along with the
/var/log/Xorg.0.log
from a run with the nv driver?

I can't get to my laptop atm, but I'll send everything you need tonight when I get home. Thanks!

Mike:
additionally does booting with the
pci=nommconf
grub option make any difference?

(as found in http://www.nvnews.net/vbulletin/showthread.php?t=92980 )

This might be fixed in git for nv - http://lists.freedesktop.org/archives/xorg-announce/2007-July/000324.html .

So it seems that it doesn't give a black screen all the time. Output from lspci is as follows:

01:00.0 VGA compatible controller [0300]: nVidia Corporation Unknown device [10de:0407] (rev a1) (prog-if 00 [VGA])
        Subsystem: Apple Computer Inc. Unknown device [106b:00a0]
        Flags: bus master, fast devsel, latency 0, IRQ 11
        Memory at 92000000 (32-bit, non-prefetchable) [size=16M]

I've included three logs. the first *.nv is from the first attempt where X actually started. The sencond, *nv2 is from my next reboot, where it did show a black screen. The last log is from an attempt at installing the Binary nvidia driver from their site. (which also failed)

Confirmed in Gutsy Tribe 3; solution may be that git link in the comment above.

Just to head off another issue, there is no xv video support on the 2D side of new NVIDIA 8xxx chips (see https://bugs.freedesktop.org/show_bug.cgi?id=11586 ) and thus no nv support for this feature.

I confirm that the last version of nv works.

This issue seems to be fixed in the current version of Gutsy, isn't it?!
