Tested models: Macbook Pro 4,1 has UGA graphics NVIDIA Corporation G84M [GeForce 8600M GT] [10de:0407] (rev a1) (prog-if 00 [VGA controller]) Macbook Pro 8,2 has GOP graphics Intel Corporation 2nd Generation Core Processor Family Integrated Graphics Controller [8086:0126] (rev 09) (prog-if 00 [VGA controller]) Advanced Micro Devices, Inc. [AMD/ATI] Whistler [Radeon HD 6630M/6650M/6750M/7670M/7690M] [1002:6741] (prog-if 00 [VGA controller]) Proposed as a Blocker for 20-final by Fedora user chrismurphy using the blocker tracking app because: Alpha Release Criterion: "The boot menu for all supported installer and live images should include an entry which causes both installation and the installed system to use a generic, highly compatible video driver (such as 'vesa'). This mechanism should work correctly, launching the installer or desktop and attempting to use the generic driver." Could be a Mac EFI edge case, but considering it was working with an earlier version, I suspect other UEFI hardware will be affected. *** Bug 1030454 has been marked as a duplicate of this bug. *** This does not affect only Macs, see bug 1030454. Ajax should have a fix soon: <ajax> building a fix now <ajax> explaining only delays that :-) This build should fix the problem: http://koji.fedoraproject.org/koji/taskinfo?taskID=6194121 xorg-x11-server-Xorg-1.14.4-4.fc20.x86_64 fixes the problem on Macbook Pro 4,1. Also fixes the problem on Macbook Pro 8,2. So at least one case each of UGA and GOP graphics fixed. xorg-x11-server-1.14.4-4.fc20 has been submitted as an update for Fedora 20. https://admin.fedoraproject.org/updates/xorg-x11-server-1.14.4-4.fc20 xorg-x11-server-1.14.4-4.fc20 has been pushed to the Fedora 20 stable repository. If problems still persist, please make note of it in this bug report. |
