Description Armijn Hemel 2007-03-04 10:44:35 UTC
Description of problem:

When I boot my system with 2.6.19-1.2911.6.4.fc6 in graphical mode the machine
freezes. If I disable rhgb, it boots, but as soon as X starts, the machine
completely freezes. Reverting to 2.6.19-1.2911.fc6 "fixes" it.

Version-Release number of selected component (if applicable):

2.6.19-1.2911.6.4.fc6

How reproducible:

Always

Steps to Reproduce:
1. boot either with rhgb, or start X
2.
3.
  
Actual results:

System freeze

Expected results:

Normal boot

Comment 1 Armijn Hemel 2007-03-06 10:33:49 UTC
It seems to be solved with 2.6.19-1.2911.6.5.fc5, so I close it.

Comment 2 Armijn Hemel 2007-03-07 09:10:05 UTC
I had it again with 2.6.19-1.2911.6.5.fc6, reopening.

Comment 3 Armijn Hemel 2007-03-07 10:45:50 UTC
There is a difference between the output of X when I boot with different
kernels, which might explain the freezes:

-       BytesPerScanline: 594
+       BytesPerScanline: 528

The former is with 2.6.19-1.2911, the latter with 2.6.19-1.2911.6.5. I will
attach the log files from X as well.

This bug is open for a Fedora version that is no longer maintained and
will not be fixed by Fedora. Therefore we are closing this bug.

If you can reproduce this bug against a currently maintained version of
Fedora please feel free to reopen thus bug against that version.

Thank you for reporting this bug and we are sorry it could not be fixed.
