Hello, I'm trying to update a notebook, to run 5.2. The beast is an oldish Vaio PC-F707 (Pent-III + Neomagic). When booting with ACPI enabled, X-Windows just stays "frozen" : the screen is blanked, then there is no more progress (and no log in /var/log/XFree.log). When booting without ACPI, X-Windows runs happily. How do I help debugging this problem ? When the screen is frozen, I can't escape to the kernel debugger. TfH PS : the machine also runs flawlessly with a recent 4.9-Stable and the straight X-4.3.0 server. As the machine used to run 4.x, I do not know when the X11 server stopped running alongside with ACPI PS2 : a successful X11 start log (under 5.2, without ACPI) is accessible at http://thierry.herbelot.free.fr/XFree86.0.log PS3 : an ACPI dump is accessible at http://thierry.herbelot.free.fr/foo.asl
