Created attachment 358356 [details] /var/log/Xorg.0.log Description of problem: X-server 1.6.3-4 freezes during startx with kernel 2.6.30.5-32.fc11.i686.PAE. With kernel 2.6.30.5-32.fc11.i586 the x server works fine. Version-Release number of selected component (if applicable): x-Server: xorg-x11-server-Xorg-1.6.3-4.fc11.i586 intel driver: xorg-x11-drv-intel-2.7.0-7.fc11.i586 kernel: 2.6.30.5-32.fc11.i686.PAE How reproducible: start server with kernel 2.6.30.5-32.fc11.i686.PAE and X-Server freezes during startup without any possible interaction by keybord or mouse. Have to connect by ssh and reboot the server. Actual results: same behavior with kernel parameter "nomodeset" and adding Option "AccelMethod" "EXA" or or Option "AccelMethod" "XAA" to xorg.conf. Starting of x-server with kernel 2.6.30.5-32.fc11.i586 works without problems. Attached the Xorg.0.log.old file for x-server starting.
This is almost certainly a duplicate of https://bugzilla.redhat.com/show_bug.cgi?id=521574
Yes, I think so. And certainly difference between PAE and non-PAE kernels is matter for kernel component. Closing as duplicate, but I am willing to consider reassigning to kernel component. *** This bug has been marked as a duplicate of bug 521574 ***
