Description Erik Kubec 2004-11-12 08:31:26 UTC

Hello,

I installed FC3 on November 8th.  I used nvidia's newest install script
(November 5th) and followed the instructions (www.fedora.redhat.com/docs/udev)
related to the 'Configuring Kernel Parameters' hang bug that has been very
prevelant.  This is not that bug, as the nvidia module gets loaded.  I followed
all instructions on nvidia website and fedora, and then when starting X, the
nvidia splash screen comes up, the mouse comes up and moves around normally, and
then the mouse starts leaving a trail of where it has been.  X stops there. 
Then I control-alt-bckspc to get out of X into a term, and the following is what
is on the screen:

mass component shift / reassign for proprietary nVidia driver bugs.

Comment 2 Andy Ritger 2005-02-21 16:32:09 UTC

Erik: could you please provide more information about your configuration?  (GPU,
etc).  Generating an nvidia-bug-report.log (by running the command
`nvidia-bug-report.sh`) and attaching it to this bug report would be useful.

Thanks.

Ping to the bug submitter! Are you still experiencing this using a more current
version of xorg and the nvidia drivers?

Comment 4 Erik Andren 2006-06-16 02:06:00 UTC

Closing due to the lack of activity from the bug poster. If the problem still
persists with a current version of the nvidia driver and a xorg please reopen.
