This bug appears to have been reported against 'rawhide' during the Fedora 12 development cycle. Changing version to '12'. More information and reason for this action is here: http://fedoraproject.org/wiki/BugZappers/HouseKeeping This has been a long standing problem, one which we just can't fix right now. During a crash there is currently no safe way to return a video card to text mode so that the kdump boot process is visible, or to put up a banner indicating that a kdump is in progress. The KMS changes make some of this more possible, but only on certain hardware, and under certain conditions. Its simply to haphazzard a solution to truly be reasonable at this point. |
