Description of problem:Wehn I heard of using nouveau.modset in the Fedora forum,I'd thoguht I would try it out. Version-Release number of selected component (if applicable): How reproducible:very Steps to Reproduce: 1.parameters in /boot/grub/menu.list are set to nouveau.modeset=1 just before VGA= 2.Save and re-boot(make sure one can see the graphical boot process) 3. Actual results:Instead of getting me to KDM,the boot process freezes at atd: I have to do a hard reset before the machine responds. Expected results: Additional info:I did a bit of experimenting at the time,and when I setted my nouveau.modeset=2, the kernel boots fine,so this is a bit of a strange one really.
booty only processes bootloader configuration. It doesn't have anything to do with those parameters actually working or not.
Hi there, I'm sorry if I'm confusing people.I didn't mean to select booty. The problem is real though,if I set the nouveau.modeset=1 in the kernel paramters, it definetly will stop booting at adt,and will not go on to KDM. If I set the parameter to =2, the boot process will will work normally. I hope that celars that up. Regards, STEVE555

To all, I think you can close this bug,as I think I no longer have a problem with K.M.S.I do get the light blue background with the Fedora symbol appearing as the system is booting.(I read somewhere that is how you know K.M.S is working). I'm currently on the latest Rawhide(Fedora 13),and also compile the git code from D.R.M,Linux-2.6/Nouveau,Mesa,and xf86-video-nouveau. The current problem I'm having I've posted in the Rawhide section of Fedora Forum. Here is the output from lspci -vvv: 01:00.0 VGA compatible controller: nVidia Corporation NV40 [GeForce 6800 GT] (rev a1) (prog-if 00 [VGA controller]) Control: I/O+ Mem+ BusMaster+ SpecCycle- MemWINV- VGASnoop- ParErr- Stepping- SERR+ FastB2B- DisINTx- Status: Cap+ 66MHz+ UDF- FastB2B+ ParErr- DEVSEL=medium >TAbort- <TAbort- <MAbort- >SERR- <PERR- INTx- Latency: 32 (1250ns min, 250ns max) Interrupt: pin A routed to IRQ 16 Region 0: Memory at ce000000 (32-bit, non-prefetchable) [size=16M] Region 1: Memory at b0000000 (32-bit, prefetchable) [size=256M] Region 2: Memory at cd000000 (32-bit, non-prefetchable) [size=16M] Expansion ROM at cfee0000 [disabled] [size=128K] Capabilities: [60] Power Management version 2 Flags: PMEClk- DSI- D1- D2- AuxCurrent=0mA PME(D0-,D1-,D2-,D3hot-,D3cold-) Status: D0 NoSoftRst- PME-Enable- DSel=0 DScale=0 PME- Capabilities: [44] AGP version 3.0 Status: RQ=256 Iso- ArqSz=0 Cal=3 SBA+ ITACoh- GART64- HTrans- 64bit- FW+ AGP3+ Rate=x4,x8 Command: RQ=32 ArqSz=2 Cal=0 SBA+ AGP+ GART64- 64bit- FW+ Rate=x8 Kernel driver in use: nouveau Kernel modules: nouveau, nvidiafb Regards, STEVE555
I would also like to add that I'm sorry for not replying earlier,I think at the time I first reported the bug,I found a solution(I can't remember what the solution was back then).And my latest Xorg.0.log is attached at the top of the bug report. Regards, STEVE555
Well, if it's somehow not fixed in Fedora yet it certainly will be in time for Fedora 13, when rawhide picks up all the relevant stuff that got it fixed for you. Thanks for reporting back.
