Description of problem:


Hello ,
If I try to run the update 4. 7. 0-desktop-0. RC7. 6. mga6 (after choosing -4. 7. 0-desktop-0. RC7. 6. mga6) MGA shows me a gray screen with in the center three question marks and then I have a message that says there was a graphic display problem. After several attempts to regain control, I finally access the console. The screen displayed a message asking  to type drakx11, and  choose a mode and then type systemconfigctl default;
I then arrived on the login screen, but with US keyboard ,. . etc.
I returned to the previous version 7. 7. 0-desktop. rc 7. 5 it works well on the 1 shot!
but if it can help here. . . . .

Thanks, yes you can help :-)

Please attach journal-rc7.5.txt that is the result of running, as root,

    journalctl -ab > rc7.5.txt

and then reboot into the new kernel again, redo what you did before, and run (switch to a VT with ctrl+alt+F3 if needed), as root:

    journalctl -ab > rc7.6.txt

and attach rc7.6.txt to this report, too.

Oh, and I forget: there is a chance that you only got part of a set of kernel-related updates. Please try first whether updating again solves the problem.

i am sorry but now it's impossible to access to konsole during startup of kernel rc7.6 
i have the identification windows but it's impossible to enter  username or password (no keyboard , no mouse)
i must shutdown the computer manually.
