From Bugzilla Helper: User-Agent: Mozilla/5.0 (X11; U; Linux i686; en-US; rv:1.6) Gecko/20040510 Description of problem: If I boot my machine with kernel 2.6.6-1.435 rhgb doesn't show anything at all and the monitor doesn't get any signal at all. The signal comes back when starting gdm. I don't have this problem with the SMP version and 2.6.5-1.358 SMP. Version-Release number of selected component (if applicable): rhgb-0.11.2-6 How reproducible: Always Steps to Reproduce: 1. boot kernel 2.6.6-1.435 2. 3. Actual Results: Screen went blank when rhgb was started Expected Results: I expected to see graphical goodness! Additional info: The machine is a Medion Titanium MD 8080, the monitor is a Iiyama Vision Master 403. Switching between virtual terminals (i.e. pressing ctrl-alt-f1, etc.) does give a signal back on the monitor, pressing ctrl-alt-f8 makes it the signal go away gain. Nothing interesting is showing up in /var/log/messages and I have no clue what to do or how to fix it.
ARGH. The problem turned out to be that for some unknown reason /dev/pts/1 wasn't created during startup and the X server didn't like it. I tried it some more, it does work. Sorry for wasting your time :(
