Recently I've upgraded 2 my PC's from 4.1.27-5.g4f5158a-default to 4.1.28-2.1.gae3ccbc (default)
Why are you not using 13.1's kernel in 13.1 and 13.2's kernel in 13.2?
Hm, the best answer seems to be "just for fun".
and got tons of Xorg failures.
My laptop has intel video card and uses openSUSE 13.1 x32, 4.1.28-default introduced there kdm start-up stuck, 4.1.28-vanilla introduces kernel panic (photo attached). My PC has nvidia card with proprietary driver and uses openSUSE 13.2 x64, 4.1.28-default introduced there oom errors (log attached) and kde4 start-up failures, vanilla wasn't tested.
Any tips please?
1-provide us output from 'lspci | grep VGA' from both machines. There is an abundance of different Intel video with different responses to different driver and kernel versions.
PC: 04:00.0 VGA compatible controller: NVIDIA Corporation G92 [GeForce GTS 250] (rev a2) Laptop: 00:02.0 VGA compatible controller: Intel Corporation Mobile GM965/GL960 Integrated Graphics Controller (primary) (rev 03)
2-Try latest kernels from update channels, 3.12.59 for 13.1, 3.17.7 for 13.2.
All kernells ≤ 4.1.27-5 are fine, kernels from update channels are fine too.
3-'zypper rm xf86-video-intel' on the laptop, but only if you are also using an xserver newer than that shipped in 13.1, at least 17.0.x. Removing the intel X driver along with using 17.0.x or newer server results in Xorg using the built-in modeset driver, which can solve problems that are only experienced in the intel driver.
Nope, xserver is default one (7.6_1.14.3.901-34.2).
4-force reinstall of KDE, QT, Xorg and drivers, after forcing filesystem checks on the / partitions.
Boot with 4.1.27-5 resolves all issues, should I force filesystem check etc? -- Best regards, Dmitriy Perlow R&D chemical engineer Lekpharm JLLC -- To unsubscribe, e-mail: opensuse-kernel+unsubscribe@opensuse.org To contact the owner, e-mail: opensuse-kernel+owner@opensuse.org
