Description of problem: xorg multi-display will not start Version-Release number of selected component (if applicable): kernel-3.12.6-300 How reproducible: yum update packages: kernel-3.12.6-300.fc20.x86_64 kernel-modules-extra-3.12.6-300.fc20.x86_64 kexec-tools-2.0.4-18.fc20.x86_64 libevdev-0.6-1.fc20.x86_64 kernel-headers-3.12.6-300.fc20.x86_64 kernel-debug-devel-3.12.6-300.fc20.x86_64 Steps to Reproduce: 1. 2. 3. Actual results: xorg multi-display will not start Expected results: multi-display, multi-monitor output Additional info:
There is zero information in this BZ to be able to help. What graphic cards? What is the output of /var/log/Xorg.0.log and /var/log/messages Did this work before? Is this a new setup?
Configuration works with prior kernel versions. Solved problem by using yum history undo. Currently using 3.11.10-301.fc20.x86_64. Cards Intel i915 and Nvidia 9500GT. No complaints found in Xorg.0.log or messages. Do not reach greeting or login screen. I can reinstall and capture any info you find helpful.
This is not caused by the kernel update. I ran into the same issue earlier today, namely: 1) update using yum update -y, here is what was updated Packages Altered: Install kernel-3.12.6-300.fc20.x86_64 @updates-testing Install kernel-debug-3.12.6-300.fc20.x86_64 @updates-testing Install kernel-devel-3.12.6-300.fc20.x86_64 @updates-testing Updated kernel-headers-3.12.5-302.fc21.x86_64 @fedora-rawhide-kernel-nodebug Update 3.12.6-300.fc20.x86_64 @updates-testing Updated kexec-tools-2.0.4-14.fc20.x86_64 @updates Update 2.0.4-18.fc20.x86_64 @updates-testing Updated libevdev-0.5-1.fc20.x86_64 @updates Update 0.6-1.fc20.x86_64 @updates-testing Updated wireshark-1.10.4-2.fc20.x86_64 @updates-testing Update 1.10.5-1.fc20.x86_64 @updates-testing 2) reboot 3) gnome will not start, no error message is printed to the console The most likely culprit seemed to be libevdev, so I rolled back the update and updated everything except libevdev and voila everyting works. After an update of libevdev gnome is broken again. I will check logfiles now.

I can confirm libevdev is culprit, however, messages from gnome in /var/log/messages is different: "Dec 26 07:31:53 blackheart gnome-session[2287]: WARNING: App 'gnome-shell.desktop' exited with code 127 Dec 26 07:31:53 blackheart gnome-session[2287]: WARNING: App 'gnome-shell.desktop' exited with code 127 Dec 26 07:31:53 blackheart gnome-session[2287]: WARNING: App 'gnome-shell.desktop' respawning too quickly"
If downgrading libevdev to 0.5-1.fc20 fixes it can you close this BZ as duplicate of 1046426 please? Thanks, Michele
