Agreed. There are some bus level errors (low 16 bits of STATUS 0x0800) and some timeout (low bits 0x0400) > You say, this happens when gnome starts.

My best guess is graphics? driver making wild access to some i/o regs that never respond. If booting without graphics works, then that adds some weight to the theory. Other useful tests would be to check upstream kernels 3.12, 3.13 to see if something is odd in the Fedora additions. And 3.14-rc7 to see if it is already fixed upstream. If upstream 3.12 works and 3.13 breaks (and not fixed in 3.14-rc7) ... then bisecting between 3.12 and 3.13 would be helpful. -Tony -- To unsubscribe from this list: send the line "unsubscribe linux-kernel" in the body of a message to majord...@vger.kernel.org More majordomo info at http://vger.kernel.org/majordomo-info.html Please read the FAQ at http://www.tux.org/lkml/
