Public bug reported: Release is Ubuntu 11.04 beta 1
I have a Dell E6500 latitude laptop with two monitors connected via Display Port. When KMS is enabled, plymouthd aborts during init. The segfault appears to be in the i915 kernel drm module and there is a printk regarding display port. If I boot with nomodeset, then X will start but then xrandr does not work and I can only use one monitor. I have tried both the ubuntu 11.04 beta1 64-bit desktop and lubuntu 110.4 32-bit beta1 LIVE discs with the same results. I am currently running ubuntu 10.10 64-bit on the same machine with no problems. I would like to upgrade but this is obviously not possible as long as this bug persists. ** Affects: ubuntu Importance: Undecided Status: New ** Tags: drm i915 kernel kms xorg -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/747685 Title: Cannot boot: plymouthd segfaults when i915 uses kms -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
