Description jon scsi 2012-04-19 08:08:19 CEST

Firstly I will state that the i586 installs have gone without problems on 5 individual test boxes. Mainly Acer brand but different models and configurations, I have also tested a ATI Video card I have, but not nividea as I don't have any at present.

However the sixth a x86_64 hasn't!

Description of problem:
Many error messages during config and install, I had hoped that a set of logs would be kept and it looked onscreen that it was happening, however a mentioned /var/log/Xorg.0.log was found empty upon rebooting into another linux and searching on the installed partition.

Version-Release number of selected component (if applicable):
Mageia 2 Beta 3 - Dual CD ( MD5SUM: db066cebcac52a162a9ac9c0f5c84714 (17/04)

Machine
Acer V3700GX / Hp p1120 Monitor

How reproducible:
Tried it twice, took some notes as far as I could the second time

I have attached the 4 logs that seem relevant

Install quick error notes:

1- Failed to load module dbe: module does not exist
ditto for glx, record, dri, dri2

2- (EE) FBDEV(0):FBIOBLANK:INVALID ARGUMENT
[div] Could not init font pathe element /etc/X11/fontpath.d removing from list
(EE)FBDEV(0):INVALID ARGUMENT
(EE)FBDEV(0):INVALID ARGUMENT
Gtk-Warning **Locale not supported by C library
  using the fallback C......

and on it went, some things were ok, others errored

Let me know if you want me to try further and if you have better commandline I could use when starting the install.

(since the report.bug.tar contains other log you send it attachment, it was useless to add them in other post ;) )

sorry, hadn't realized

Comment 7 Marja Van Waes 2012-05-26 13:01:57 CEST

Hi,

This bug was filed against cauldron, but we do not have cauldron at the moment.

Please report whether this bug is still valid for Mageia 2.

Thanks :)

Cheers,
marja

thought it was in hand by Thomas or Manuel, my note at the end of the origonal description is still awaiting an answer so I suspect it should now be in mageia 2 against x86_64.

thanks
scsijon

Please test again with final dual iso

closing, seems to be working right, although warnings still appear, however it's apparently not just mageia they are now appearing against.

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