After installing the same kernel from updates-testing along with all the other 'testing updates, I have run into a similar issue. First, I noticed that unlike with 2.6.27, KMS is now enabled on my hardware. However, booting seemed to get stuck in the same place as on your machine. After getting stuck, only the ACPI event from the power button seemed to do anything meaningful (The system shut down cleanly, though without any output to the screen). After adding the nomodeset word to the kernel boot parameters, the system acts as it used to. No KMS, no getting stuck at the end of boot. Try doing the same if you suspect it has anything to do with KMS. The hardware where this happens is an IBM Thinkpad T41, with the following graphics card: 01:00.0 VGA compatible controller: ATI Technologies Inc Radeon Mobility M7 LW [Radeon Mobility 7500] -- Joonas Sarajärvi muepsj@xxxxxxxxx -- fedora-list mailing list fedora-list@xxxxxxxxxx To unsubscribe: https://www.redhat.com/mailman/listinfo/fedora-list Guidelines: http://fedoraproject.org/wiki/Communicate/MailingListGuidelines
