RHEL Engineering is moving the tracking of its product development work on RHEL 6 through RHEL 9 to Red Hat Jira (issues.redhat.com). If you're a Red Hat customer, please continue to file support cases via the Red Hat customer portal. If you're not, please head to the "RHEL project" in Red Hat Jira and file new tickets here. Individual Bugzilla bugs in the statuses "NEW", "ASSIGNED", and "POST" are being migrated throughout September 2023. Bugs of Red Hat partners with an assigned Engineering Partner Manager (EPM) are migrated in late September as per pre-agreed dates. Bugs against components "kernel", "kernel-rt", and "kpatch" are only migrated if still in "NEW" or "ASSIGNED". If you cannot log in to RH Jira, please consult article #7032570. That failing, please send an e-mail to the RH Jira admins at rh-issues@redhat.com to troubleshoot your issue as a user management inquiry. The email creates a ServiceNow ticket with Red Hat. Individual Bugzilla bugs that are migrated will be moved to status "CLOSED", resolution "MIGRATED", and set with "MigratedToJIRA" in "Keywords". The link to the successor Jira issue will be found under "Links", have a little "two-footprint" icon next to it, and direct you to the "RHEL project" in Red Hat Jira (issue links are of type "https://issues.redhat.com/browse/RHEL-XXXX", where "X" is a digit). This same link will be available in a blue banner at the top of the page informing you that that bug has been migrated.

Two major issues have recently been identified, and fixed upstream, in the nouveau vbios parser.

The first is that it's possible for nouveau to execute some of the init tables in the VBIOS when it's not supposed to, causing us to disable the panel on some systems (as in Fedora bug #582621), and potentially worse depending on how the video BIOS was written.

The second problem is in the handling of i2c-related opcodes in the VBIOS init tables.  The code could address the wrong slave device, with unpredictable and potentially severe consequences.

Both of these issues should be fixed before the RHEL6 release.

Patch(es) available on kernel-2.6.32-32.el6

the fixes from 32-32 kernel are causing hard lockups to my T410 as soon as I select user in gdm.. can't get any logs via ssh.. the box is dead

nVidia Qudaro NVS3100

x86_64

moving back to ON_QA as we've finally realized that it's not video but audio issue. Big kudos to Ben Skeggs :)

I can confirm patches inclusion in kernel build, sanity testing performed, no problems found
-> VERIFIED

Red Hat Enterprise Linux 6.0 is now available and should resolve
the problem described in this bug report. This report is therefore being closed
with a resolution of CURRENTRELEASE. You may reopen this bug report if the
solution does not work for you.
