Hi!
Like it's precursor, on my Sabertooth FX990 it keeps halting the boot
process with various hub status messages of either --108 or --113:
However, the list of those journal entries has become a bit shorter, and
I could isolate the bug to the kernel's recognizing some of the numerous
USB ports of my board. I've tried out a lot of various alternative
settings inside that fucking "UEFI compliant" AMI-BIOS held by ASUS,
switching devices off and on again, finally running into the conclusion
the main problem is within the USB 3.0 ports, but my card reader
connected by USB 2 and showing four devices in BIOS also seems to be
part. Be it as ever is, no configuration (including disabling all) could
have me get over, so I had to boot the final kernel 4.8 again, and this
one works fine with all other recent updates.
I should remind you, however, I use to boot the legacy way by bios_grub
partitions. So may be, a contemporary UEFI system (!not my one!) might
success with the new kernel, but me, I prefer avoiding UEFI mode because
I have many a piece of hardware (as first of all there is my PCIe SAS
RAID controller Promise SuperTrak EX8760T) individually attached to my
machine that seems to lack any adequate entry in that relatively old
UEFI NVRAM now. Yet, I think any good Linux kernel should run on legacy
mode as well.
Good news to report is my graphics adapter R7 260X is fully accepted,
and even KDE Plasma continues working excellently on Rawhide.
Never give up, and be the Ancients with ye,
Geri Goetzhaber
