As far as I remember I have tried a bit newer kernel but not very recent ones, since there were way too much time wasted on all kind of new components went into the machine (since it's been struck by lightning and got replaced, which primarily resulted my adventures with i915) and the machine had to be stabilised for working. The stalls were causing all kind of problems in other parts of the system so with all my apologies I had to give up debugging this and went on working on my tasks. Testing unfortunately requires plenty of reboots and the mainboard doesn't quite like to init dual monitors at startup (DVI works, HDMI doesn't, which makes quite hard to follow boot problems or modeset related stuff), the kernel had to be forced to always-present due to a detection bug, and the various hacks required to keep the system running (albeit pretty slowly) piled up too high for my tastes. Therefore I am terribly sorry that I cannot provide more input and testing on this bug (I would say "when time permits", since the card is still present, but my estimation of the probability of this to happen are rather low). Feel free to do whatever you deem appropriate to this poor bug.</pre> </div> <hr> You are receiving this mail because: <ul> <li>You are the QA Contact for the bug.</li> </ul> </body> </html>
