Hey, we have a respository for that! http://fedoraproject.org/wiki/RawhideKernelNodebug This should get you builds of the rawhide kernel without all of those debugging options turned on. >> If you boot with nomodeset does it work (all be it slowly) ? >> Does it work if you switch to say lightdm? >> dnf -y install lightdm >> sudo systemctl enable lightdm --force > > I haven't try neither nomodeset nor other DMs, because no > maintainer asked for such test.

The fact that this is limited to debug kernels has made it pretty low priority. It's not that we don't want to see it fixed, just that there are unfortunately more bugs which do impact releases. Asking upstream might be more fruitful here. _______________________________________________ devel mailing list -- devel@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx To unsubscribe send an email to devel-leave@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx
