f12 updates kernel nomodeset option breaks radeon

[Date Prev][Date Next][Thread Prev][Thread Next][Date Index][Thread Index]

 



After updates today my radeon driver does not start properly if the kernel nomodeset option is used.

The X log has a message :

"Couldn't find valid PLL dividers"

Good news though in other areas :

--I can shell into the machine with ssh, it's not a hard crash.

--If I set up the kernel with "rhgb quiet" and do not use the "nomodeset" option X starts up normally.

--I no longer need an xorg.conf with "XAA" accel enabled to prevent X crashes. EXA seems to be working reliably now. (I previously reported that www.newegg.com and wiki.centos.org were crashing X with EXA enabled.)

EXA seems stable with kernel modesetting though...great!
