gentoo-sources-2.6.39 or vanilla with manually applied fbcondecor patch will hang during booting if there's an initrd present that contains the bootsplash theme. The last thing printed during boot is "Switching to clocksource tsc" and it hangs there. Reboot by SysRq doesn't work at that point. Reproducible: Always Steps to Reproduce: 1. Install gentoo-sources-2.6.39, make sure "framebuffer console decorations" is enabled, and build it. 2. Generate an initrd using the splash_geninitramfs tool. I used: "splash_geninitramfs --verbose --res 1920x1080 --generate /boot/initrd.splash1920x1080 livecd-2007.0" 3. Edit your grub.conf to contain an initrd line for the 2.6.39 kernel. Mine is: title=Linux root (hd0,3) kernel /boot/vmlinuz-2.6.39-gentoo root=/dev/sda2 rootfstype=ext4 quiet radeon.dynpm=1 splash=theme:livecd-2007.0 console=tty1 usbhid.mousepoll=4 saa7134.card=29

I have the exact same issue with the exact same configuration
Created attachment 276229 [details] Test Case Kernel Configuration - gentoo-sources-x86_64-2.6.39-gentoo I am attaching the kernel configuration file of a kernel affected by this bug.
Created attachment 276231 [details] Test Case Genkernel Configuration - Genkernel 3.4.15 I am attaching the genkernel configuration file used to build the affected kernel. The build command line was: "genkernel all"
I have two computers (netbook and desktop) that use a fbcondecor + initrd configuration. They both hang when booting a 2.6.39-gentoo version kernel. They have previously never had a problem booting the kernel. Attempts to change the clocksource by using "clocksource=hpet" or "clocksource=acpi_pm" failed to resolve the problem.
do not add arch team by yourself. Thanks
