[Bug 533594] New: 2nd stage of installation fails (due to Xorg crash?)
http://bugzilla.novell.com/show_bug.cgi?id=533594 Summary: 2nd stage of installation fails (due to Xorg crash?) Classification: openSUSE Product: openSUSE 11.2 Version: Milestone 4 Platform: Other OS/Version: Other Status: NEW Severity: Major Priority: P5 - None Component: Installation AssignedTo: bnc-team-screening@forge.provo.novell.com ReportedBy: zajec5@gmail.com QAContact: jsrain@novell.com Found By: --- User-Agent: Opera/9.64 (X11; Linux x86_64; U; pl) Presto/2.1.1 I try to install 11.2 M4 from: openSUSE-DVD-Build0233-x86_64.iso First stage has gone fine, but second (after automatic reboot) actually didn't start. Instead of second stage I saw KDE's login screen without any user to log on. After one more reboot I was told installation somehow failed and I was asked if I want to continue (all that was displayed in graphics mode, not text mode). I responded "Yes". Then picture flickered and I saw KDE's log in screen again. Interesting thing may be what I see on ALT+CTRL+F8. It's part of Xorg.0.log with Xorg crash logged. So my guessing is following: 1) Second stage decided to test some X configuration 2) That configuration failed (Xorg crash) 3) Something started X after crash, and that X displayed KDE 4) Installator couldn't handle situations where X crashes Reproducible: Always -- Configure bugmail: http://bugzilla.novell.com/userprefs.cgi?tab=email ------- You are receiving this mail because: ------- You are on the CC list for the bug.

vboxvideo module is missing. Reassigning to maintainer.
Do you really believe it's source of my problem? I don't try to install openSUSE 11.2 Milestone 6 in VBox, so this error shouldn't be critical. -- Configure bugmail: http://bugzilla.novell.com/userprefs.cgi?tab=email ------- You are receiving this mail because: ------- You are on the CC list for the bug.

Rafal: could you reproduce this crash on installed system ?
I tried. About 50 X starts and not a one caused crash. I've also installed milestone 8 and problem is gone now. I'm not sure if I've seen machine reboot while installation... did we remove reboot routine? Just for sure I've rebooted machine few times and restarted X 10 times. Not a one X crash. fixed/resolved? -- Configure bugmail: http://bugzilla.novell.com/userprefs.cgi?tab=email ------- You are receiving this mail because: ------- You are on the CC list for the bug.
