Can't upgrade f10 to f11: X startup failed, detected GPU lockup

[Date Prev][Date Next][Thread Prev][Thread Next][Date Index][Thread Index]

 



I'm trying to install/upgrade a system currently running F10 to F11
(64-bit AMD, 4MB ram).

The anaconda graphical install fails, and it always falls back to
the text mode install.  I have to use the graphical mode, because
I need partitioning/LVM/LUKS options that the text mode
does not support.

This system worked fine with both F9 and F10.  I'm using the
on-board graphics chip on the motherboard (ASUS M2NBP-VM CSM)
which is supposedly an nVidia GeForce 6150LE.


Anyway during the early F11 anaconda install it always outputs:
  WARNING :  X startup failed, falling back to text mode

Looking at the X.log file, I have these excerpts:

Does anybody have any idea what may have changed in F11, and how
I can get the graphical installer to run like it did in previous releases?
