[Bug 688714] New: openSUSE 11.4 often crashing during boot (i915 driver, probably)
https://bugzilla.novell.com/show_bug.cgi?id=688714 https://bugzilla.novell.com/show_bug.cgi?id=688714#c0 Summary: openSUSE 11.4 often crashing during boot (i915 driver, probably) Classification: openSUSE Product: openSUSE 11.4 Version: Final Platform: i686 OS/Version: openSUSE 11.4 Status: NEW Severity: Major Priority: P5 - None Component: Kernel AssignedTo: kernel-maintainers@forge.provo.novell.com ReportedBy: rwhittaker@novell.com QAContact: qa@suse.de Found By: Other Blocker: --- On Samsung N-310 netbook, 11.4 often (but not always) crashes when booting. This looks similar to what I reported with m6 in https://bugzilla.novell.com/show_bug.cgi?id=669556 I suspect i915 because: - with m6 it always happened just as that driver was loaded and at the point in the boot where the console text size is about to change as a result of mode setting - it does not happen if I pass the kernel parameter nomodeset. # uname -a Linux dinah.disruptive.org.uk 2.6.37.1-1.2-default #1 SMP 2011-02-21 10:34:10 +0100 i686 i686 i386 GNU/Linux # hwinfo --gfxcard 09: PCI 02.0: 0300 VGA compatible controller (VGA) [Created at pci.318] Unique ID: _Znp.m6RtaS4MHK5 SysFS ID: /devices/pci0000:00/0000:00:02.0 SysFS BusID: 0000:00:02.0 Hardware Class: graphics card Model: "Intel 945 GME" Vendor: pci 0x8086 "Intel Corporation" Device: pci 0x27ae "945 GME" SubVendor: pci 0x144d "Samsung Electronics Co Ltd" SubDevice: pci 0xc052 Revision: 0x03 Driver: "i915" Driver Modules: "drm" Memory Range: 0xf0000000-0xf007ffff (rw,non-prefetchable) I/O Ports: 0x1800-0x1807 (rw) Memory Range: 0xd0000000-0xdfffffff (ro,non-prefetchable) Memory Range: 0xf0300000-0xf033ffff (rw,non-prefetchable) IRQ: 16 (9671 events) I/O Ports: 0x3c0-0x3df (rw) Module Alias: "pci:v00008086d000027AEsv0000144Dsd0000C052bc03sc00i00" Driver Info #0: XFree86 v4 Server Module: intel Driver Info #1: XFree86 v4 Server Module: intel 3D Support: yes Extensions: dri Config Status: cfg=no, avail=yes, need=no, active=unknown 10: PCI 02.1: 0380 Display controller [Created at pci.318] Unique ID: ruGf.eqIm9AJgpU7 SysFS ID: /devices/pci0000:00/0000:00:02.1 SysFS BusID: 0000:00:02.1 Hardware Class: graphics card Model: "Intel Mobile 945GM/GMS/GME, 943/940GML Express Integrated Graphics Controller" Vendor: pci 0x8086 "Intel Corporation" Device: pci 0x27a6 "Mobile 945GM/GMS/GME, 943/940GML Express Integrated Graphics Controller" SubVendor: pci 0x144d "Samsung Electronics Co Ltd" SubDevice: pci 0xc052 Revision: 0x03 Memory Range: 0xf0080000-0xf00fffff (rw,non-prefetchable) Module Alias: "pci:v00008086d000027A6sv0000144Dsd0000C052bc03sc80i00" Config Status: cfg=no, avail=yes, need=no, active=unknown Primary display adapter: #9 -- Configure bugmail: https://bugzilla.novell.com/userprefs.cgi?tab=email ------- You are receiving this mail because: ------- You are on the CC list for the bug.

Same problem. Nomodeset appears to prevent the problem, as does nosmp, which appears to be why the failsafe option works. I'm working on a dual process, hyperthreaded Atom 330 1.66 GHz processor with I915.
only a hint:. to work around you can use the desktop kernel for the moment untill they fix the problem. See workaround in Bug 686451. -- Configure bugmail: https://bugzilla.novell.com/userprefs.cgi?tab=email ------- You are receiving this mail because: ------- You are on the CC list for the bug.
