--- Comment #34 from Felix Miata
With "graphical boot" I mean the boot menu is in high-resolution. You can switch to textmode in Yast -> system -> bootloader -> tab: kernel parameter -> box: [] Use graphical console / Graphik-Konsole benutzen UnSelecting the bootloader "graphical console" is a sufficient workaround on my side.
I'm still not sure what you want from me here. Ever since Grub as an option was terminated, the only time I see a YaST Bootloader screen on my own hardware is during installation, where, except on UEFI systems, I customarily select to install no bootloader. With the exception of UEFI, all Gnu Linux operating systems here are booted using an openSUSE Grub 0.97 version, usually 0.97.194.
To check if PTI is enabled on your fedora installation you have to look for a line Kernel/User page tables isolation: enabled in dmesg output.
dmesg | grep -i 'page table' and dmesg | grep -i isola both return null with 4.20.6-100.fc28.i686
According your description your CPU supports 64bit, too. Did you try a 64bit operating system?
I don't know how to answer this. I have hundreds of bootable operating system installations. Whether half or more are using 64bit kernels I have no idea. I didn't do my first 64bit installation on any of my own PCs until around the time openSUSE announced there would be no 32bit Leap. I think I have at most 4 PCs with both 32bit and 64bit installed, more than I care to have already, so I intend to create no more purposely. Comment #29 & #32 host gx280 was selected for the test that resulted in comment #29 because it has the fastest CPU clock on hardware on which I have running 32bit versions of openSUSE and Fedora and Debian, along with a gfxchip supported by a KMS Xorg driver, not because of its CPU's optimal arch. None of my 64bit installations exhibit this bug. -- You are receiving this mail because: You are on the CC list for the bug.
