Description of problem: X server fails to start, see the attached logs for the error messages. Adding "nomodeset" to kernel line in grub does not help. Version-Release number of selected component (if applicable): xorg-x11-drv-intel-2.7.0-7.fc11.i586 How reproducible: always Steps to Reproduce: 1. try to start X on Asus EEE ... Actual results: I'm back to text console, X does not start Expected results: X starts without any problem Additional info:
Created attachment 348657 [details] log with using "nomodeset" option
Created attachment 348658 [details] log WITHOUT "nomodeset" option
... note this bug is somehow similar to older i810 bugs, but it does not seem to me that it is exact duplicate
well, interesting observation ... the problem is bound only to "startx" command, I'm able to get the graphical login screen using "init 5"

sorry for late reaction I observe very similar problem, but looking into the log, the root cause is for sure different and it happens also using another machine the problem from this bugreport cannot be reproduced exactly, thus I'd say it is fixed in F12 => closing for the current problem, I've filed a new bug #570764
