Description of problem: If I start xen kernel 18-8.el5xen or 18-8-1-14.el5xen, the X-server won't start. With the non xen kernel there is no problem. I have this problem with both the vesa drivers as with the nvidia ones. With the vesa X11 drivers the screen goes blank, but the system remains responsive. With the nvidia X11 drivers gdm is unable to start and I'm left with a message that X server is reverting to a default config. At that time the Xserver seems able to start. My videocard is a Gforce 8600GTS. Version-Release number of selected component (if applicable): nvidia driver 100.14.19 (latest) How reproducible: Steps to Reproduce: 1. 2. 3. Actual results: Expected results: Additional info:
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 attach your X server config file (/etc/X11/xorg.conf; note, that we are interested only in free drivers) and X server log file (/var/log/Xorg.*.log) to the bug report as individual uncompressed file attachments using the bugzilla file attachment link below. Could you please also try to run without any /etc/X11/xorg.conf whatsoever and let X11 autodetect your display and video card? Attach to this bug /var/log/Xorg.0.log from this attempt as well, please. We will review this issue again once you've had a chance to attach this information. Thanks in advance.
a) don't talk about nvidia driver to me; clear your computer from files it left you (http://fedoraproject.org/wiki/Xorg/3rdPartyVideoDrivers; especially if you didn't use packaged drivers, but the ones from nvidia.com website) and retest with vesa drivers. b) could we get these files I asked for in the previous comment, please?
