Re: [Bug 528026] Re: [gm45] Often freezes before GDM login screen appears

 

Hello Chris,

I agree that this is not a showstopper. 
I think that the problem is not only the memory copying from Plymouth to X but also the correct X init.
I do not understand why it really ignores the xorg.conf settings.

For the present situation, that is better, I believe that the kernel upgrades have done part of the job.
I am also considering a compile/install of 2.6.33.2 

Thanks for your support!

Regards, 
 Daniel

Thanks for that video; I've now got a much better idea of what's
happening.

So, it looks like there's a problem with copying the framebuffer from
plymouth to X. That looks ugly, but isn't particularly concerning.
Thanks.

I probably won't look into this in the next week, given the priority,
but it's on my todo list.
