Michael also asked this question, and there was nothing after that then! That is where the messages ended. (This was upon a boot last night). And I hibernated after that, but it did not come back up (rather came back up with a non-working mouse -- clicks that would not do anything), so I had to reboot.

Here is the dmesg output (now):

$ dmesg | fpaste
Uploading (91.9KiB)...
http://ur1.ca/idldg -> http://paste.fedoraproject.org/142121/38568514

And here are lsmod:

$ lsmod | fpaste
Uploading (5.3KiB)...
http://ur1.ca/idlde -> http://paste.fedoraproject.org/142120/13385650
maitra at bhagirathi 10:07:35~$ 

and 

$ lspci -v | fpaste
Uploading (8.6KiB)...
http://ur1.ca/idldm -> http://paste.fedoraproject.org/142123/85718141

I have had a very good run with Fedora (from circa 2003, the days of FC1) but this is the first time I am unable to get a machine working to my satisfaction. (And it is not at all clear to me that the distribution has much to do with it. These may be kernel issues, and I have submitted to bugzilla both on Fedora and kernel.org but so far no resolution/workaround.) This is a Dell Precision M3800.

Thanks again!
Ranjan
