Description Luke Hutchison 2005-01-27 05:51:06 UTC

Description of problem:
I have a Shuttle XPC SN95G5 desktop system which boots fine in FC3,
and booted fine with fedora-development kernels until the 2.6.10-...
series.  With the new kernels, my boot process stops after "Starting
udev: storage network audio done", before the rhgb changes screen mode.

I have a USB Microsoft Natural Keyboard Pro.  Unplugging it at boot
fixes the problem.

There is no indication that this is a USB problem, so finding the
problem was very tricky.

kernel-2.6.8-1.624  ** All these OK **
kernel-2.6.9-1.639
kernel-2.6.9-1.640
kernel-2.6.9-1.649
kernel-2.6.9-1.667
kernel-2.6.9-1.1008_FC4

kernel-2.6.9-1.1020_FC4
kernel-2.6.9-1.1021_FC4
kernel-2.6.9-1.1032_FC4
kernel-2.6.9-1.1037_FC4
kernel-2.6.9-1.1047_FC4
kernel-2.6.10-1.1089_FC4  ** Stopped working here **
kernel-2.6.10-1.1105_FC4
kernel-2.6.10-1.1107_FC4
kernel-2.6.10-1.1109_FC4
kernel-2.6.10-1.1110_FC4

Would lshal or lspci output help?


Version-Release number of selected component (if applicable):


How reproducible:
Always

Steps to Reproduce:
Boot with MS Nat KB Pro plugged in.

[I saw this briefly in one kernel release in the 2.6.9 development
series, but I don't know which one.  It was fixed quickly.  This time
it has made it through several builds without getting fixed, so
perhaps it hasn't been noticed by anyone else.]

Booting works again in kernel-2.6.10-1.1115_FC4 -- closing.  Thanks.
