I have two systems with RC1 and this video chip, one with an Dell BIOS, for
which I filed https://bugzilla.novell.com/show_bug.cgi?id=671140 . The other
has an Intel BIOS. Unlike the other, it loads the Intel driver, but KDM/KDE
only partly work.
Regardless whether I use an xorg.conf or not, KDM & startx give little more
than black screens. .xsession-errors excerpts:
(EE) intel(0): Detected a hung GPU, disabling acceleration
(EE) intel(0): failed to set cursor: Input/output error
(EE) intel(0): [DRI2] DRI2SwapBuffers: drawable has no back or front?

Segmentation fault at address 0xbababad2

t2240 was a minimal install experiment last time, so I installed fresh from
RC1 iso, but it didn't change anything. The KDE splash came up for a while
from startx (at least once), then the screen went black except for mouse
pointer. Ctrl-Alt-BS Ctrl-Alt-BS escapes the GUI, but startx fails to exit,
requiring Ctrl-C to get a prompt back. Init 5 won't even bring up a mouse
pointer from KDM.
I've not found a bug that looks like this in Novell's bugzilla, at least not
yet. Anyone have any insight?
