Hi all, I have installed F11 on an Asus Eee PC 1101HA which has the GMA 500 chipset. After running yum for updates, I now have two kernels installed: kernel-2.6.29.4-167.fc11.i586 kernel-2.6.30.9-90.fc11.i586 For the GMA 500, I installed the following: Oct 28 00:28:57 Installed: psb-firmware-0.30-4.fc11.noarch Oct 28 00:28:58 Installed: xpsb-glx-0.18-5.fc11.i686 Oct 28 00:28:58 Installed: libdrm-poulsbo-2.3.0-10.fc11.i586 Oct 28 00:29:46 Installed: rhpxl-1.12-2.fc11.i586 Oct 28 00:29:48 Installed: system-config-display-1.1.3-2.fc11.noarch Oct 28 00:29:48 Installed: livna-config-display-0.0.23-1.fc11.noarch Oct 28 00:29:48 Installed: kmod-psb-4.41.1-10.fc11.2.i586 Oct 28 00:29:51 Installed: kmod-psb-2.6.30.9-90.fc11.i586-4.41.1-10.fc11.2.i586 Oct 28 00:29:58 Installed: xorg-x11-drv-psb-0.31.0-15.fc11.i586 If I boot the original kernel, X boots OK, only the startup complains about not finding "psb.ko". Ok, that makes sense; I only have the 2.6.30 version installed. But if I boot the latest kernel, the boot process hangs at some point after "Starting UDEV..." (no error message is displayed). There are a few lines in the system log but they don't tell me much: Oct 28 01:13:05 pollux kernel: psb 0000:00:02.0: PCI INT A -> GSI 22 (level, low) -> IRQ 22 Oct 28 01:13:05 pollux kernel: [drm] psb - 5.0.1.0046 Oct 28 01:13:05 pollux kernel: [drm:psb_do_init] *ERROR* Debug is 0x00000000 Oct 28 01:13:05 pollux kernel: psb 0000:00:02.0: firmware: requesting msvdx_fw.bin Oct 28 01:13:05 pollux kernel: fbcon: psbfb (fb0) is primary device Oct 28 01:13:05 pollux kernel: [drm] fb0: psbfb frame buffer device Oct 28 01:13:05 pollux kernel: [drm] Initialized psb 4.41.1 20090416 on minor 0 Can anyone give me some pointers on how to determine what is going wrong here? The Xorg log isn't much help. Also, is there a way of forcing the boot process to stick with text-only? Booting at run level 3 doesn't seem to do the trick. Thanks. ----- Colin Brace Amsterdam http://lim.nl -- View this message in context: http://www.nabble.com/Intel-GMA-500-problems-on-Eee-tp26087610p26087610.html Sent from the Fedora List mailing list archive at Nabble.com. -- fedora-list mailing list fedora-list@xxxxxxxxxx To unsubscribe: https://www.redhat.com/mailman/listinfo/fedora-list Guidelines: http://fedoraproject.org/wiki/Communicate/MailingListGuidelines
