Description Joseph D. Wagner 2016-04-08 18:19:31 UTC
Since updating to the latest rawhide, xorg initializes to a black screen at boot in  QEMU/KVM.

I can reboot the machine from the VM menu, so it is responding, just a blank screen.

I didn't see any errors when trying "startx" or when looking at Xorg.0.log.

The only thing about the package upgrades that stuck out to me was that it didn't upgrade anaconda due to broken dependencies.  Maybe it expected anaconda to be updated, and that's why it won't start?

Please forgive me for not being more helpful.  I'm a newbie at this.  I'd be happy to help if someone could walk me through it, but I'm also hoping someone else with more experience has this problem.

Otherwise, it's only a VM for testing, and I can always start fresh.

I reinstalled rawhide, and I it works now.
