Mageia 5 alpha 1 LiveDVD Gnome/KDE i586 X fails to start on machine which usually would use nvidia-current. This happens before setting keyboard etc so X actually fails quite early in the boot. The journal shows gdm-Xorg tries various methods, including nouveau and then fails with No Screens Found. KDE creates Xorg.0.log which shows the same error. https://dl.dropboxusercontent.com/u/4147101/mga5a1/DSC02540.JPG https://dl.dropboxusercontent.com/u/4147101/mga5a1/journal.txt https://dl.dropboxusercontent.com/u/4147101/mga5a1/lsmod.txt https://dl.dropboxusercontent.com/u/4147101/mga5a1/Xorg.0.log xdriver=nouveau kernel option doesn't help nvidia-current-kernel-3.152-desktop-2.mga5 appears to be on the ISO which is probably confusing it as it doesn't work with new Xorg IIUC. Reproducible: Steps to Reproduce:
Whiteboard: (none) => 5alpha1
Created attachment 5239 [details] journal2.txt Still failing with 2nd build Thomas, sorry. The symptoms and error look the same. Attaching a new journal. lsmod shows nouveua module as being loaded again though and the tty resolution is large enough (lots of lines) to make me think it is in use but X still finding no screens.
This sounds not related to nvidia direiver as I have the same problem with Intel i915. Hitting [ESC] shortly after boot starts, seems to hang after displaying "Reached target Graphical Interface". Hitting <Ctrl><Alt><F2> it is possible to login as live user. startx fails with "No screen found". Running, as root XFdrake there are no possibility to install any generic driver. /rene91

You don't seem to have any driver installed... What's the output of the following command? rpm -qa x11-driver"*"|sort

Crap, how could I have missed that ... all free video drivers besides vboxvideo (wich I tested on) are missing...

Can you add some check? Such as: for i in x11-driver-{input-{wacom,evdev},video-{ati,intel,nouveau}} basesystem; do grep $i *.lst || exit 1;done or in perl sg like: my @needed = (map { "x11-driver-$_" input-wacom input-evdev video-ati video-intel video-nouveau) qw(basesystem); my @have = map { cat_($_) } glob("*.lst") # unlike shell version, report all missing pkgs at once: my @missing = difference2(\@needed, \@have); die "missing packages\n" . join(", ", sort(@missing)) if @missing; Feel free to extend the list of needed packages according to recent issues when building mga[34]

My own version of rpm-qa x11-driver is: x11-driver-input-void-1.4.0-14.mga5 x11-driver-input-wacom-0.25.0-1.mga5 x11-driver-input-acecad-1.5.0-14.mga5 x11-driver-video-nvidia-current-337.25-3.mga5.nonfree x11-driver-input-mouse-1.9.0-8.mga5 x11-driver-input-evdev-2.9.0-4.mga5 x11-driver-input-keyboard-1.8.0-5.mga5 x11-driver-input-fpit-1.4.0-14.mga5 x11-driver-input-aiptek-1.4.1-12.mga5 x11-driver-video-vboxvideo-4.3.12-4.mga5 x11-driver-input-penmount-1.5.0-14.mga5 x11-driver-input-mutouch-1.3.0-14.mga5 x11-driver-input-synaptics-1.8.0-4.mga5 x11-driver-input-1.0.0-18.mga4 x11-driver-input-evtouch-0.8.8-20.mga5 x11-driver-input-hyperpen-1.4.1-18.mga5 x11-driver-input-joystick-1.6.2-7.mga5 where no Intel driver is found. I have not tested this version on my "GeForce 640 machine" because I need it until around 4pm CEST
That was for Thomas :-) (in order to find such issues when building the ISOs not later when people test them)
Actually a second check shows that the drivers are there on x86_64, but not on i586 isos as x11-driver-video requires x11-driver-video-geode wich is not supported with x11-server 1.16 So I pushed a new x11-driver-video with the requires removed
I've edited your SVN log as to include this bug ID
