11.07RC LEB no gui

This is because the SGX PVR module is fails to build with this kernel and Xorg can't find load the pvr driver (forced because of a xorg config file).

I updated xorg-server to try to load the pvr driver automatically, so we can remove the xorg config and make it work again (without hw acceleration, but at least working).

Patch at xorg-server_1.10.1-1ubuntu1.1linaro1:

does this also affect lt-panda-x11 hwpack? or just the mainline one?

tom said in qatracker that its for both panda hwpacks.

I believe I am also getting this bug on my A1 Pandaboard.

I am able to boot normally the first time I boot the image. I get an error saying pvr-module could not be compile/installed.

Then it I try a reboot I get a black screen with the terminal prompt (non flashing) but it is not responsive to keyboard input.

Which image/hwpack combination are you using with your Pandaboard?

Can you also paste your boot and xorg log?

Thanks.

It seems to be fixed in the repositories, and just needs a apt-get update && apt-get upgrade.

Therefore it is critically important to do this before rebooting for the first time or you will only have serial input and have to do it via serial.
