Description far jump 2011-02-28 17:37:53 UTC
After emerge --world  and upgrade of nvidia-drivers, xorg-server and kernel kdm hangs at black screen (after showing nvidia logo splash-screen)

Reproducible: Always

Steps to Reproduce:
1. emerge -DNup world
2. reboot
3.

Actual Results:  
System is working in all other respects, but kdm greet does not show and hangs at black screen

Expected Results:  
kdm greet should present login screen

if I ssh in to this laptop and run:
/etc/init.d/xdm restart
then it reloads X and kdm and everything works perfectly, nvidia logo appears, login screen is presented and I can login normally w/o any further problems.  If I put laptop to sleep, it returns perfect to where it was.  If I reboot or turn it off.  then the black screen (w/ cursor blinking in upper right cornor) appears and GUI is hung.

no I don't think so. It has to do with KMS enabled for the radeon (ATI).  I have an nvidia card and there is no option to enbable KMS for nvidia

Any better luck with kde-4.6.2?

KDE 4.6 is still masked as of my last emerge --sync (two days ago)
Comment 7 far jump 2011-04-09 21:44:52 UTC
I have noticed that each time it hangs this is entered into kdm.log

[dix] couldn't enable device 8

just emerge -DNu world and desktop was upgraded to 4.6.2 and this seems to have solved the problem
Comment 9 Andreas K. Hüttel archtester gentoo-dev 2011-05-17 07:23:51 UTC
OK, resolving then. Thanks!
