If this is with the new kernel maybe try with the one in LHP. Have you tried deleting xorg.conf when running xorgwizard? When X dumps back to CL, type mp /tmp/root/xerrs.log and mp /var/log/Xorg.0.log. There should be a clue in one of those logs, unless kms is stuffing things up.Q5sys wrote:No matter what WM I try it just kicks me back out to the prompt the same was as if I shut down X manually.
Any ideas?
I've tried running xorgwizard and going back through that process but then the system hangs and I have to do a hard reboot. However... all I need to do is load my backup of my save file and it works fine.
I've added the fbcon (frame buffer console) kernel modules to the initrd so that I can run CL at 800x600 (vga=788) and I'm going to test it with nouveau kms to see if it is compatible. I read somewhere that kms may require fbcon and I'm thinking maybe? that is why we get a blank screen when booting Intel graphics without kms. If not, and fbcon causes any difficulty, I'll take it out again.
