The F17 kernel doesn't have the AST module enabled. Still an issue with F20. Installer needs nomodeset in order to actually be able to install a machine. This message is a reminder that Fedora 20 is nearing its end of life. Approximately 4 (four) weeks from now Fedora will stop maintaining and issuing updates for Fedora 20. It is Fedora's policy to close all bug reports from releases that are no longer maintained. At that time this bug will be closed as EOL if it remains open with a Fedora 'version' of '20'. Package Maintainer: If you wish for this bug to remain open because you plan to fix it in a currently maintained version, simply change the 'version' to a later Fedora version. Thank you for reporting this issue and we are sorry that we were not able to fix it before Fedora 20 is end of life. If you would still like to see this bug fixed and are able to reproduce it against a later version of Fedora, you are encouraged change the 'version' to a later Fedora version prior this bug is closed as described in the policy above. Although we aim to fix as many bugs as possible during every release's lifetime, sometimes those efforts are overtaken by events. Often a more recent Fedora release includes newer upstream software that fixes bugs or makes them obsolete. Fedora 20 changed to end-of-life (EOL) status on 2015-06-23. Fedora 20 is no longer maintained, which means that it will not receive any further security or bug fix updates. As a result we are closing this bug. If you can reproduce this bug against a currently maintained version of Fedora please feel free to reopen this bug against that version. If you are unable to reopen this bug, please file a new report against the current release. If you experience problems, please add a comment to this bug. Thank you for reporting this bug and we are sorry it could not be fixed. |
Created attachment 715111 [details] Last console messages before "out of range" Description of problem: After upgrading my HP ProLiant MicroServer (with the HP Remote Access Card, based on AST1100) from Fedora 17 (kernel-3.8.3-103.fc17) to Fedora 18 (kernel-3.8.3-203.fc18) the console via KVM viewer and via RAC VGA stopped to work with "Out of range" signal. To fix I had to add ast.modeset=0 as kernel boot parameter. I also created a file in /etc/modprobe.d/ast.conf with options ast modeset=0 Version-Release number of selected component (if applicable): Kernel-3.8.3-203.fc18 Fedora 18 How reproducible: Have a HP MicroServer with a Remote Access Card Install Fedora 18 with latest kernel as writing Steps to Reproduce: 1. Activate HP RAC KVM console 2. Boot the kernel Actual results: The KVM console goes out of range after Mar 23 16:14:47 microserver kernel: [ 4.104785] [TTM] Zone kernel: Available graphics memory: 2024944 kiB Mar 23 16:14:47 microserver kernel: [ 4.104913] [TTM] Initializing pool allocator Mar 23 16:14:47 microserver kernel: [ 4.105035] [TTM] Initializing DMA pool allocator Mar 23 16:14:47 microserver kernel: [ 10.522147] [sched_delayed] sched: RT throttling activated Expected results: To see the console and login prompt Additional info: To fix ast.modeset=0 is needed modinfo: filename: /lib/modules/3.8.3-203.fc18.x86_64/kernel/drivers/gpu/drm/ast/ast.ko license: GPL and additional rights description: AST author: Dave Airlie alias: pci:v00001A03d00002010sv*sd*bc03sc*i* alias: pci:v00001A03d00002000sv*sd*bc03sc*i* depends: drm,drm_kms_helper,ttm,i2c-core,i2c-algo-bit intree: Y vermagic: 3.8.3-203.fc18.x86_64 SMP mod_unload parm: modeset:Disable/Enable modesetting (int) Everything was woking fine on Fedora 17 with kernel-3.8.2-103.fc17
