Description of problem: When booting kernel-2.6.27-0.186.rc0.git15.fc10.x86_64 I get a garbled ascii display instead of gdm when booting without rhgb on the cmdline (I get the same garbled ascii with rhgb on the cmdline). Version-Release number of selected component (if applicable): kernel-2.6.27-0.186.rc0.git15.fc10.x86_64 How reproducible: Always Steps to Reproduce: 1. Boot amd64 system with ati X1950pro and kernel-2.6.27-0.186.rc0.git15.fc10.x86_64 Actual results: garbled ascii Expected results: gdm Additional info: The ascii always show the same "pattern"
Note, the latest rawhide kernel (from today) does work when I remove rhgb from the cmdline, I haven't tried yet with rhgb, I'll do that tomorrow and if that works too, I'll close this.

Yes and no, Yes: the system no boots fine with rhgb parameter present on the kernel cmdline No: plymouth still runs in ascii mode As the no is not what this bug was about, I'm going to close this.
