BUT my nouveau problems stay the same, so here more details about the current behaviour: after ~4.5 seconds (some udev and nouveau msgs) there is first some red/brown thick horizontal bar/distortion at the top 1/3 of the screen, then a smaller black bar with some few color pixels -- and then the screen goes black. if I'm not too impatiend, console comes back after loooong time (60+ seconds) and frame buffer console works (only runlevel 3, Xserver will hang). the first msgs in boot.msg with desktop kernel are: klogd 1.4.1, log source = ksyslog started. 00000010 - Ch 1 <6>[ 48.186771] [drm] nouveau 0000:01:00.0: PFIFO_INTR 0x00000010 - Ch 1 <6>[ 48.186771] [drm] nouveau 0000:01:00.0: PFIFO_INTR 0x00000010 - Ch 1 <6>[ 48.186771] [drm] nouveau 0000:01:00.0: PFIFO_INTR 0x00000010 - Ch 1 <6>[ 48.186771] [drm] nouveau 0000:01:00.0: PFIFO_INTR 0x00000010 - Ch 1 [ ... 1400 lines removed !! ] <6>[ 60.402144] [drm] nouveau 0000:01:00.0: PFIFO_INTR 0x00000010 - Ch 1 <6>[ 60.402174] [drm] nouveau 0000:01:00.0: PFIFO_INTR 0x00000010 - Ch 1 <6>[ 60.402408] input: PS/2 Generic Mouse as /devices/platform/i8042/serio1/serio2/input/i nput5 <6>[ 60.418339] [drm] nouveau 0000:01:00.0: PFIFO_INTR 0x00000010 - Ch 1 <6>[ 60.418914] [drm] nouveau 0000:01:00.0: PFIFO_INTR 0x00000010 - Ch 1 [ ... another ~2900 lines removed ... ] <6>[ 75.242400] [drm] nouveau 0000:01:00.0: PFIFO_INTR 0x00000010 - Ch 1 <6>[ 75.242400] [drm] nouveau 0000:01:00.0: PFIFO still angry after 101 spins, halt <4>[ 76.503052] Console: switching to colour dummy device 80x25 <4>[ 76.532506] Console: switching to colour frame buffer device 236x71 <6>[ 76.563220] fb0: nouveaufb frame buffer device <6>[ 76.563334] registered panic notifier with default kernel that "timeout" is much worse - from the start of boot.msg: klogd 1.4.1, log source = ksyslog started. 0000:01:00.0: PFIFO_INTR 0x00000010 - Ch 1 <6>[ 256.237820] [drm] nouveau 0000:01:00.0: PFIFO_INTR 0x00000010 - Ch 1 <6>[ 256.237850] [drm] nouveau 0000:01:00.0: PFIFO_INTR 0x00000010 - Ch 1 [ .. ~3300 lines removed ] <6>[ 287.019502] [drm] nouveau 0000:01:00.0: PFIFO_INTR 0x00000010 - Ch 1 <6>[ 287.019533] [drm] nouveau 0000:01:00.0: PFIFO_INTR 0x00000010 - Ch 1 <6>[ 287.019545] [drm] nouveau 0000:01:00.0: PFIFO still angry after 101 spins, halt <4>[ 287.905728] Console: switching to colour dummy device 80x25 <4>[ 287.934540] Console: switching to colour frame buffer device 236x71 <6>[ 287.961403] fb0: nouveaufb frame buffer device .. right now I have to boot with "nomodeset" to get around those problems. I'm not really sure if that udev update/downgrade messed up something in the system which is now persistent and which got copied into the new initrd (of course I do not have backups of old/working initrd :-(( or if this is some "mkinitrd-only" thing and that udev stuff isn't involved at all. any idea what I should look for to get more information ? e.g. I checked time stamps in /etc/udev/... for new (persistent) files but the only one is /etc/udev/rules.d/70-persistent-net.rules -- 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.
