[Bug 709863] New: [i845G] KDE hangs before startup completes without compositing disabled
https://bugzilla.novell.com/show_bug.cgi?id=709863 https://bugzilla.novell.com/show_bug.cgi?id=709863#c0 Summary: [i845G] KDE hangs before startup completes without compositing disabled Classification: openSUSE Product: openSUSE 12.1 Version: Factory Platform: x86 OS/Version: Other Status: NEW Severity: Major Priority: P5 - None Component: X.Org AssignedTo: bnc-team-xorg-bugs@forge.provo.novell.com ReportedBy: mrmazda@earthlink.net QAContact: xorg-maintainer-bugs@forge.provo.novell.com Found By: --- Blocker: --- KDE was working apparently fine with M3's 4.6.x and upstream workspace, session, etc theming, even after updating to 4.7. Then I decided to start fresh by removing most content from ~/, leaving .mc, .fonts, .mozilla, .bashrc, etc. so that for X purposes only the user would be brand new. After that, neither login from KDM nor startx would open KDE all the way up, hanging with a black screen after the default KDE splash got about half way through. The hang disables the keyboard entirely, forcing fixup via ssh login or power switch. Eventually I thought to try creating /etc/X11/xorg.conf.d/70-composite.conf containing: Section "Extensions" Option "Composite" "Disable" EndSection Now KDE 4.7 works. -- 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.

If you get it to not lock up by disabling composite you are lucky. I've seen issues even with only 2D.

If this also an Intel 845G, yes. Thanks.
Dell gx260's motherboard and BIOS is by Dell (P4 2.6GHz). t2240's motherboard is made by Intel and BIOS by AMI. t2240 (Celeron 2.4GHz) also no longer requires /etc/X11/xorg.conf.d/70-composite.conf, although with composite enabled, the desktop is unacceptably slow. -- 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.

Let's close this one as fixed with regard to KDE startup. As Egbert said more issues on i845 are to be expected. These should be addressed upstream by Intel developers. -- 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.
