Maybe - but squeeze kernel is 2.6.32, and i am reluctant to go backwards. At some stage between lenny and squeeze, there is this whole rigmarole of grub -> grub2, and changes in udev, and dependency based booting etc. Downgrading the kernel may or may not lead there, but i would not go down that path, if i can help it. Disabling KMS solves the problem, as i wrote in another mail. Thanks for your help. arvind -- Quidquid latine dictum sit, altum sonatur. -- This message has been scanned for viruses and dangerous content by MailScanner, and is believed to be clean. -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to [email protected] with a subject of "unsubscribe".
