Description Marja Van Waes 2014-08-09 23:21:35 CEST
Created attachment 5335 [details]
journalctl -b

booting the pre-Mageia 5 alpha 2 Gnome CD (32bits) on this system
https://wiki.mageia.org/en/User:Marja/QA/Hardware#IBM_ThinkPad_R50e
ends with

"Oh no! Something has gone wrong." etc.

rebooted and added "systemd.unitâmulti-user.target" to the kernel options, and then started prefdm.service from the konsole, but that gave the same error.

I then switched to tty2 or 3 and tried to (re)start (pref)dm.service a few times, but other than in bug 13687, that didn't work here.

I'll attach the "journalctl -b" output from the "systemd.unitâmulti-user.target" boot

There are some segfaults like this one:

for the record, the KDELiveCD did not get those crashes in Live mode on the same laptop
Comment 2 Marja Van Waes 2014-08-09 23:30:16 CEST
s/those/similar/
doesn't KDE use i915_dri.so?
Comment 3 Samuel Verschelde 2015-05-16 18:40:41 CEST
Is it still valid Marja? If so, is it a duplicate of the other "Oh no" bug that has had lots of activity recently?

Closing as old, I'm not sure whether I tried a GnomeLiveCD again on that system.

Will test if I find time, and reopen when needed (and not already covered by another open bug)

Status: NEW => RESOLVED
Resolution: (none) => OLD
