0.211 generates a "black screen of death" for me
with gdm boot
(runlevel 5). Checking the logs, there is a repeatable
kernel Oops in
the drm code that seems to savage X
(https://bugzilla.redhat.com/show_bug.cgi?id=457598, kernel
BUG at
drivers/gpu/drm/drm_fops.c:144! invalid opcode: 0000).
However, booting 0.211 to runlevel 3 and then issuing a
'startx' works
for me (Thinkpad X60, Intel 945 graphics) without the Oops.
The error you get is the same as in the kernel oops that I got:
http://www.kerneloops.org/submitresult.php?number=47213
0.211 works for me, except that I cannot connect to internet with it. wvdial bails out
with error 1. This happens with 186,205,208 and 211 2.6.27rc kernels :(
