Xorg 1.4.99.* will start to load but hangs at a black screen. At this point, I can not switch to another tty. When I try pressing ctrl+alt+del the kernel ooopses and the caps lock led starts to blink. This happens using the nv, radeon and radeonhd drivers (the nv was tested on another box obviously). I have also tried to unselect HAVE_GET_USER_PAGES_FAST in my kernel config but this does not help. I can not figure out where or what the bug is. I can provide any other info you guys need to figure this out. Let me know what I can do. -Ryan -- To unsubscribe from this list: send the line "unsubscribe linux-kernel" in the body of a message to majordomo@vger.kernel.org More majordomo info at http://vger.kernel.org/majordomo-info.html Please read the FAQ at http://www.tux.org/lkml/
