2) You didn't give what the failure mode is for kernels such
as 2.6.14.2, which should work, and certainly don't print out
that bug message
It's the same as for 2.6.13 and 2.6.15rc, did build a 2.6.14.3 as had
removed the 14.2 when I started to use 15rc.
You're still not answering my question, what is this failure
mode? Xorg doesn't start? The kernel crashes when Xorg starts?
Xorg starts but you get a blank screen? You did not mention
this critical information anywhere. Mentioning a list of other
kernels that "it's the same" for doesn't describe the failure
mode. :)
Sorry, thought the log from Xorg was quite selfexplaining
Xorg jumps to VT7, you see a console cursor, "_", at the top left corner
and thats it. It's impossible to change back to VT1 (or any other), the
only thing that works is to press [stop]-[a] so that you get back to the
OBP from where I can reset the machine (resetting by the reset button
don't work). It's still possible to ssh to the machine, more and dmesg is
possible, but running ps causes the machine to completly lock up, change
init mode don't give any affects att all and trying to turn off or kill X
results in the same as ps.
When running in plain console (without trying to run X) everything works
fine (just telling that so I won't get people to ask if ps segfaults in
other cases or claims that my init is broke and so on).
