Thanks for the bug report. We have reviewed the information you have provided above, and there is some additional information we require that will be helpful in our diagnosis of this issue. Please add drm.debug=0x04 to the kernel command line, restart computer, and attach * your X server config file (/etc/X11/xorg.conf, if available), * X server log file (/var/log/Xorg.*.log) * output of the dmesg command, and * system log (/var/log/messages) to the bug report as individual uncompressed file attachments using the bugzilla file attachment link above. Now, to get to these logs, we may need to be a bit creative: it could be possible you may get to your computer via ssh from another computer and collect the information this way. Also it could be possible to create LiveUSB (https://fedoraproject.org/wiki/How_to_create_and_use_Live_USB) instead of LiveCD and have some logs stored on USB (and next time you can 3 to the kernel command line and start without X). Or it could be possible to switch to the console via Ctrl-Alt-F2 (root should have no password). We will review this issue again once you've had a chance to attach this information. Thanks in advance. Created attachment 483451 [details]

dmesg output
Didn't know that root could have access without password ! From the logs seems that gdm has problems to start gnome-desktop, look at that abrt[2295]: saved core dump of pid 2209 (/usr/libexec/gnome-settings-daemon) to /var/spool/abrt/ccpp-1299782808-2209.new/coredump (42913792 bytes) For the record: I've a VGA monitor attached and by default, on boot, the gdm login is showed on the LDVS screen (i.e. the laptop lcd) and the display spans both monitors. This is a wrong default IMO, but maybe another bug should be filed for that(?). Passing to developers, but also you can try new ISO image from http://alt.fedoraproject.org/pub/alt/nightly-composes/desktop/ ... there was unhealthy amount of fixes getting itself into F15 lately. As of desktop-x86_64-20110317.14.iso I can now log-in with the external monitor attached. thanks |
