Hi folks,
I have an ASUS N550JK laptop running Fedora XFCE. I didn't use it for
some months. It was running Fedora 39 XFCE. Today I did an update. After
the update it hangs on boot. Because I removed "rhgb quiet" from
GRUB_CMDLINE_LINUX I can see messages while the system boots. It seems
that it hangs after a message like
... nouveau ... Enabling HDA controller
As "nouveau" seems to be a driver for the graphic card and I can also
see that the update probably installed a newer kernel
6.8.9-200.fc39.x86_64 I did a reboot with choosing an older kernel
6.6.9-200.fc39.x86_64 from boot menu. With this older kernel the system
is able to boot without problems.
Then I did an upgrade to Fedora 40 XFCE because I hoped that this could
fix the problem. But with Fedora 40 I have the same problem. On starting
with the now very new kernel 6.8.9-300.fc40.x86_64 it hangs on boot with
the same message
... nouveau ... Enabling HDA controller
If I start Fedora 40 with the older kernel 6.6.9-200.fc39.x86_64 from
boot menu then the system boots without problems.
For providing you some information about the hardware, I did run
sudo dmidecode
but this gives very very much information. Here is only a short snippet
with some basic information:
System Information
Manufacturer: ASUSTeK COMPUTER INC.
Product Name: N550JK
Version: 1.0
SKU Number: ASUS-NotebookSKU
Family: N
To find something about the graphic card I did run
dmesg | grep nouveau
and in the very first line I can see that it seems to be a NVIDIA GM107
(117110a2):

I do not want to manually choose the kernel each time when I boot the
computer. What can I do?
Regards,
Meikel
