Bug Description

Binary package hint: xserver-xorg-video-nouveau

When a displayport cable is in, attached to a monitor, Ubuntu will boot only partially, ending up a in a black screen. The familiar Ubuntu sound is heard only partially, switching to consoles doesn't show anything except when coming back to console 7 where a corrupt frozen text login screen is shown.
