There is a bug for this on Launchpad, details are here: https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/xserver-xorg-video-nouveau/+bug/538501 Several months late on the reply to this comment but if your issue is the same as on my Revo 3600, the solution is to install Ubuntu 9.4, install the Nvidia Ion driver using “hardware drivers” in Ubuntu, then dist-upgrade up to the latest release.

They arrived in promptly in blister packs (so new) and worked very nicely. I got it on ebay off this person http://stores.shop.ebay.co.uk/Net-Super-Outlet and recently bought a second.

I noticed that you posted in one of your replies you were using an "Ortek infra red remote now, which works a treat" and was wondering if you would post something on how you managed to get that working? I don't currently have a PS3 Remote and was trying to get Boxee/Ubuntu 9.10 to work with either my Creative RM-1800 or RM-1500 remotes but am having a dreadful time getting LIRC configured and the remote functional in Boxee. Any suggestions? (Any help, posting or reply is much appreciated). Thanks again. Thanks for the great instructions popey!
