Hello:
I upgraded to the latest rawhide (10/20) and now am facing multitude of
issues.
I think I have narrowed down the culprit to some display problem or udev
problem.
When I booted up and choose the newest kernel (2.6.9), the boot process
got stuck after
it initialized hardware, with the statement "configuring kernel parameters".
I *could* get it to boot after removing the word "rhgb" from the
relevant line in the grub screen
(hence my suspicion that this is a display problem). Ok, the system now
gets going,
however fails to start and X server, with old conf file, tries to make a
new one and still fails
(I believe it tries to load either the VESA or the nv driver).
Does udev manage the display adapters as well ? So it could be a udev
problem as well.
An inspection of log files provides the error message
glxGetActiveScreen from .../libdri.a is unresolved
(it also warns that this may not be the cause of the failure to start).
Someone know how to fix this ?
