I believe after modifying 50-blacklist.conf you also need to regenerate initrd via 'mkinitrd'. Otherwise the nouveau kernel module is still loaded in initrd.

Will that take care of the systemctl error when starting the display-manager service? Because I believe the nouveau driver is not being loaded w/o having to do mkinitrd, as I have observed the nvidia kernel module has been loaded successfully. The problem is with the X system that does not want to load. Any help will be greatly appreciated. -- You are receiving this mail because: You are on the CC list for the bug.

Hello....massive failure. I installed RC1 and did the same steps to find out that the Kernel is panicking. At boot I edited the resume line to remove the splash and added "3". Tty1 at some point it says: [FAILED] Failed to start Load Kernel Modules. See "systemctl status systemd-modules-load.service" for details. But I cannot even come to a login. It gets hung in: [ OK ] Started Show Plymouth Reboot Screen. and nothing happens. On tty7 it says: Started Dracut Emergency Shell ... Warning: /dev/disk/by-uuid/<bla blah blah> does not exist Warning: Boot has failed. To debug this issue add "rd.shell rd.debug" to the kernel command line. and nothing else happens. On tty10 it says: [ <number> ] dracut-initqueue[244]: Warning: Cancelling resume operation. Device not found Warning: Could not boot. Warning /dev/disk/by-uuid/<uuid of disk> does not exist Job for dracut-emergency.service failed. See " systemctl status dracut-emergency.serive" and "journalctl -xn" for details. Warning: Not all disks have been found. Warning: You might want to regenerate your initramfs. I am writing all of this from the screen to another computer, so it is not a copy - paste. Any advice? Should I reinstall everything? -- You are receiving this mail because: You are on the CC list for the bug.

First try with kernel boot option 'nomodeset' to boot this new RC1 system. If this also fails the regression is somewhere else to find.

Modified the resume= line at grub to include nomodeset after the 'showopts'. Tried it but got me to the same place, it failed to boot. -- You are receiving this mail because: You are on the CC list for the bug.

Ok. This looks like a completely different issue. I suggest to open a fresh bug against RC1. Then I can depend that bug on the new one. Since the new one needs to be fixed first.

Well, I got frustrated with this and re-installed the OS, this time with XFCE as DE. Before doing that I followed some instructions on the net, mainly to recreate initrd. For that I booted from the USB with system rescue. I mounted the / system on /mnt and chroot'ed to /mnt. I also mounted /proc and /sys. Went into the /etc/sysconfig/ and found out that kernel was in there but totally empty. I then ran mkinitrd and many failed attempts to load kernel modules showed up. I rebooted after this and it got hung at the Splash screen (Leap logo with the three moving dots). I had to hard reset it to boot once again from the rescue system and then found out that kernel file was missing from /etc/sysconfig/. At this point I got fed with it and re-installed the OS. XFCE is working fantastically. It was stable the entire night. It is using nouveau and it is not flickering or anything, so I suspect KDE plasma is a bomb on my machine, plus the problem with the insufficiency of the nouveau driver to become at par with the video card when used on an accelerated environment. My machine's built-in VGA card seems to have died, and I only got the PCI GEFORCE video card to work with. It is too bad that I was not able to successfully use the nvidia driver with Leap and KDE. -- You are receiving this mail because: You are on the CC list for the bug.

In any case, the original reporter has found a workaround that works for him, and it was back in pre-release days. Then the bug has been hijacked. Rashmi, if a new version of the NVIDIA driver doesn't solve the problem, please open a new bug. -- You are receiving this mail because: You are on the CC list for the bug.
