[opensuse] openSUSE 11.3 2.6.34.7-0.2-xen no boot possible
Hi, I have done a fresh openSUSE 11.3 (32bit) install on a Lenovo ThinkCentre M58p 6234-1AG (C2D E8400, Q45 Express, GMA 4500, 82567LM-3). First problem was, that the network card was not recognized, I had to build in a second one. Fortunately after updating the system and a reboot, also the 82567LM-3 was working. With the normal Kernel 2.6.34.7-0.2-desktop the system works, but if I try to but with the Xen-Kernel 2.6.34.7-0.2-xen, the boot begins, but suddenly stops in a very early state. The last messages I see are: Doing fast boot Creating ... Then the screen goes blank and finaly in sleep mode. To reboot I have to power off and then power on again the system :-( In the Grub-menu.lst originally I had: ###Don't change this comment - YaST2 identifier: Original name: xen### title Xen -- openSUSE 11.3 - 2.6.34.7-0.2 root (hd0,0) kernel /xen.gz vgamode=0x317 vgamode=0x317 module /vmlinuz-2.6.34.7-0.2-xen root=/dev/...part6 resume=/dev /...part2 splash=silent quiet showopts vga=0x317 module /initrd-2.6.34.7-0.2-xen I already tried to remove the second "vgamode"-entry, finaly all "vgamode" and "vga"-options and set "splash=0" but this did not helped, "nomodeset" is not doing anything too (I think it's only for Nvidia). Any other idea? Thanks a lot. -- Chau y hasta luego, tg -- To unsubscribe, e-mail: opensuse+unsubscribe@opensuse.org For additional commands, e-mail: opensuse+help@opensuse.org
Hi, a short update: I made a "zypper up" and a new kernel (2.6.34.7-0.3) was installed, unfortunately nothing had changed. I have the same problem on my ThinkPad X60s, it tries to boot, says "Doing fast boot" and "Creating ..." and finaly I got a kernel panic :-( On both systems I use XFCE4 as desktop, but normaly I only boot to runlevel 3. -- Chau y hasta luego, tg -- To unsubscribe, e-mail: opensuse+unsubscribe@opensuse.org For additional commands, e-mail: opensuse+help@opensuse.org
Hi, finaly I found a solution with help of this bugreport: https://bugzilla.novell.com/show_bug.cgi?id=632730 After changing kernel /xen.gz vgamode=0x317 to kernel /xen.gz vga=mode-0x317 booting the xen-kernel worked! -- Chau y hasta luego, Thorolf -- To unsubscribe, e-mail: opensuse+unsubscribe@opensuse.org For additional commands, e-mail: opensuse+help@opensuse.org
Hi, I still have problems with the following issue, with the latest updates on 11.3 (at least since kernel 2.6.34.7-0.4) and with 11.4 MS5:
I have done a fresh openSUSE 11.3 (32bit) install on a Lenovo ThinkCentre M58p 6234-1AG (C2D E8400, Q45 Express, GMA 4500, 82567LM-3). ...

With this old installation, after changing in the menu.lst from "kernel /xen.gz vgamode=0x317" to "kernel /xen.gz vga=mode-0x317" it worked, but finaly I made a "zypper up" and I was not able to get running this system with the Xen-kernel again. Is there nobody who has an idea why this problem occurs and how to fix it? I can't believe that this problem exists in the SuSE-kernel (or where ever) since some updates of 11.3 and still is not fixed in the 11.4 alpha version :-( I'm quite sure that the problem is the Intel onboard graphic, because I have the same problem on my ThinkPad X60s with Intel onboard graphic, while it works on all other ThinkPads with ATI graphic card. And if I plug a PCI VGA-card in my ThinkCentre M58p, the Xen-kernel also works out of the box without any problems.
