[Bug 531554] New: My current hardware configuration does not boot SuSE Linux 11.2 M5 (ditto 11.1)
http://bugzilla.novell.com/show_bug.cgi?id=531554 Summary: My current hardware configuration does not boot SuSE Linux 11.2 M5 (ditto 11.1) Classification: openSUSE Product: openSUSE 11.2 Version: Milestone 5 Platform: i386 OS/Version: SuSE Other Status: NEW Severity: Normal Priority: P5 - None Component: Live Medium AssignedTo: coolo@novell.com ReportedBy: majewskibr@gmail.com QAContact: qa@suse.de Found By: --- User-Agent: Mozilla/5.0 (X11; U; Linux i686; en-US; rv:1.9.0.13) Gecko/2009080315 Ubuntu/9.04 (jaunty) Firefox/3.0.13 For SuSE Linux 11.2 M5 (live CD): the live CD seems to boot ok... until I loose the screen. It's still 'active' (live, whatever), but it is blank. And no way to <ctrl><alt><Fx> to another virtual console. I have to reset the system (the TFS does not work). For SuSE Linux 11.1, the kernel (?) crashes quite early during the install process. I get to the 1st menu (ie. 'what do you want to do?') and it flips to text mode, scrolling a bit until it says ~ 'sorry, linux crashed'. My configuration is as follows: * Athlon 64 3000 (socket 754); * ASUS K8N motherboard * 2GB PC-400 DDR2 RAM * XFX AGP GeForce 6200 * WD 80GB IDE drive * LG DVD Burner * USB LCD display (LCD2USB interface, HD44780 20x4 display) * TP-Link TG-3269C (Realtek gigabit) NIC for my gigabit segment; I use the built-in nVIDIA fast Ethernet NIC for my 'normal' segment (2 NICs in total) * Adaptec 2940 SCSI interface I could provide more details if requested. Reproducible: Always Steps to Reproduce: 1. 2. 3. Actual Results: in both cases (SuSE 11.2 M5 and 11.1), the system crashes. I would love to switch to SuSE 11.2, but cannot because of whatever is incompatible in my H/W config with SuSE Linux prevents me from installing it, or even running a live CD! -- 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.
