First this stupid bug crops up in 4.2 kernels and pulls a
gauze film over my screen at home where I use Intel
graphics and a Samsung TV as a display:
https://bugs.freedesktop.org/show_bug.cgi?id=92206
Not sure is this is the same or different issue. With my old Lenovo R60 laptop
with Fedora 22, it has been working with the 4.2.3 kernel, but the new 4.2.5
has the boot menu come up, but after selecting it, a couple of lines flash on
the screen, and then the screen goes out completely black. Can select the
previous kernel. Currently in PI, was suppose to be in Bali for Harley
Davidson conventions but got on plane, and had to get off after volcano, so
stuck in an unplanned hotel with 10 others from Guam making the trip.
Internet is ok, but just haven't had time to read all the fedora list messages,
Not getting updates on what status is, but latest is the airport will be opned
today finally, and we will get out tonight to get the last day of convention.
I can work around this by using the old 4.1 kernel
in fedora 22, but there is no 4.1 kernel for
fedora 23.
Then in Fedora 23 at work, I can't use the nvidia
binary drivers because fedora shipped a beta
version of the X server, and I can't use nouveau
because it will only work on maxwell cards when
nvidia gives nouveau some way to distribute and
load the firmware required. So I have to force
vesa mode (which is not very useful on a UHD monitor :-).
It is looking like it will be a long time before
I can actually run fedora 23 by default both at
home and at work...
