Appeared after trying to fix #246269 Acer Aspire 5520, nVidia GeForce 8400M G, 32 bit Ubuntu Intrepid (current): Even when no kernel parameters are passed, the screen becomes blank after passing GRUB until GDM starts. v86d is installed and present in initramfs.
dmesg: [ 3.282132] v86d[1018]: segfault at 0 ip 08049cd1 sp bfb630c0 error 4 in v86d[8048000+17000] ... [ 7.657022] uvesafb: Getting VBE info block failed (eax=0x4f00, err=1) [ 7.657030] uvesafb: vbe_init() failed with -22 [ 7.657040] uvesafb: probe of uvesafb.0 failed with error -22 v86d is the only segfaulted application during startup. After switching back to ttys from X i get extremely stretched terminal font in 40x24 mode. Any idea how to emulate v86d kernel call after the boot process? -- v86d crashed with SIGSEGV https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/258031 You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
