Description of problem: Kernel version is 2.6.30.5-43.fc11.i686.PAE How reproducible: Just Boot system Actual results: The system hangs when the blue screen with "F" in the middle. Expected results: Show login dialog soon Additional info: When I click the power button, the system will shutdown normally. It seems that the problem is about X driver. Both my thinkpad and hp laptops use Intel 4500 video card and have the same symptom.
The bug also affects me. To give more details: * system = Lenovo X200T with 4 GB RAM (with the 32-bit PAE kernel) * the X11 driver is "intel" (Mobile Intel GM45 Express Chipset) (so I also have an Intel 4500 video card). When pressing Esc to see the startup sequence, the hangup occurs just after starting Avahi (which is the last item in /etc/rc.d/rc5.d/, excluding S99local which does nothing on my system) -- but starting Avahi manually from single-user mode doesn't hang, so presumably the hangup occurs when the X server is about to start and show the login manager. I'm enclosing the last few lines of the Xorg.0.log, which seems to be complaining about a memory allocation issue or a mode setting issue, not sure.

The log file for successful X startup with 2.6.29.6-217.2.16.fc11.i686.PAE starts exactly the same way, except the max_gtt_map_size is 48104kb (so just 1 kb more), and instead of stopping with "failed to set mode" it goes on to load all sorts of X server extensions.

Same thing here. Have a X3100 2.6.29.6-217.2.16.fc11.i686.PAE back in the mean time Using ------------ 00:02.0 VGA compatible controller: Intel Corporation Mobile GM965/GL960 Integrated Graphics Controller (rev 0c)
Same on Dell Inspiron 1525: lspci -nn 00:00.0 Host bridge [0600]: Intel Corporation Mobile PM965/GM965/GL960 Memory Controller Hub [8086:2a00] (rev 0c) 00:02.0 VGA compatible controller [0300]: Intel Corporation Mobile GM965/GL960 Integrated Graphics Controller [8086:2a02] (rev 0c)
Guys, another Bug similiar to this has been logged. I think we should close this & assign our votes there. Bug 521574 - X Failed to Start with kernel-PAE-2.6.30.5-43.fc11.i686 during Boot
I also have the same problem in my Dell Inspiron 1525 . It all started after installing fedora 11, I have seen this problem in 32 bit and 64 bit fedora both. You can find the details of my problem in http://is.gd/3oKDs , I also have intel x3100 graphic accelerator & 00:02.0 VGA compatible controller: Intel Corporation Mobile GM965/GL960 Integrated Graphics Controller (rev 0c)
