http://qa.mandrakesoft.com/show_bug.cgi?id=2523 --- Additional Comments From [EMAIL PROTECTED] 2003-03-27 14:29 --- I think I have another instance of this bug. Installed 9.1 final this morning, configured X, with the savage_s3 with sw_cursor against a sgi gdm5411 on dockingstation for my ibm thinkpad T21 with savage/mx. X would not start correctly upon test or reboot, same error as post #12 in X log file; SAVAGE(0) Failed to Fetch an BIOS modes. Disable BIOS. I can get a graphical login by keeping the laptop lid open but X crashes and locks up after 10 mins or so. Never had this problem with any mandrake (8.0 - 9.0 inc).

http://qa.mandrakesoft.com/show_bug.cgi?id=2523 --- Additional Comments From [EMAIL PROTECTED] 2003-03-26 22:30 --- I guess the problem still exists in the released version of Mandrake 9.1 I'm using an ASUS L8400 notebook, which has the Savage/Mx well. When installing from scratch, I'm getting the black screen mentioned above when testing the X configuration. Besides this the XF86 log returns an error: (EE) SAVAGE(0) Failed to Fetch an BIOS modes. Disable BIOS. When upgrading from a 9.0 installation I've got is to work ... at least for a limited time. So far it worked until I switched to the KDE login manager (this would not be the root cause). Switching back to the Mandrake login manager gave me at least some icons back (non X login (runlevel 3) and startx) home, CD and floppy on a total black background. Haven't seen this with previous versions of Mandrake (switched from SuSE to Mandrake 7.2).

I don't know if this is needed. This is on an updated cooker as of 3/6/2003. I have a repeatable pattern that happens when I get invisible windows. (as per my previous comment) 1.) go to tty1 run Drakconf and setup the Xserver to use 3.3.6 2.) Reboot 3.) The Xserver tries to start up but it keeps dying. It does this about 5-6 times then drops down to a console. 4.) Run Drakconf again and set the Xserver up to use 4.3. 5.)Reboot 6.) I now get a working Xserver. 7.) Reboot. 8.) I am now back to invisable windows. The XF86config doesn't change between the working Xserver boots and the not working Xserver boots. --- You are receiving this mail because: --- You are on the CC list for the bug, or are watching someone who is. --- Reminder: --- assigned_to: [EMAIL PROTECTED] status: UNCONFIRMED creation_date: description: I have a serious problem on my ASUS laptop, here is its configuration : ASUS L8400 PIII 850Mhz on i440BX mother board chipset 192Mo SDRAM S3 SavageMX 8Mo AGP 2X 20Go HDD I'm running Mandrake Linux on it since 8.1 and without any problem with the 9.0. here is the problem: when I select S3 SavageMX during the installation and try to test it, the graphical window begins to appear, first a black empty window with just the littre cross cursor, then the cursor change to an arrow and... nothing else, the window stay black.

I had the Same Issue but I might have more information.
I am on a Toshiba Tecra 8100 with the Savage mx
I got the same black screen in the test when I setup Xfree during instalation. I
thought since I saw the cursor that I was good and proceded witht the installation.
On boot up I got the background and the cursor, nothing else. One thing of note is
that the cursor did change to the pointing hand when it was above where the
usernames are listed to click. so I clicked and it seemed to work. The cursor now
changed to the text insert cursor when I was above where the password should be
entered. I tried to login but I don't know if I was successful because it seems all
windows are transparent.
It seems that the windows are not being drawn. I do seem to have 4 white dots
outlining something but I can't get this to do anything.
This was with Xfree86 4.2.99 (The latest on the RC1 CD). The black test screen
showed up al all bitdepths and screen resolutions as well as using the
savage(generic) as well as the savage/mx drivers.
I found that using Xfree86 3.3.6 does work (I'm using this laptop right now)
Now if I can urpmi --auto-select successfully to the latest cooker I can try the
latest,
but alas: I get Installation failed:
libsasl%{major} is needed by cyrus-sasl-2.1.10-3mdk
but that is another bug..
Happy Hunting
