Hi All, Xorg doesn't start anymore since the RC1 of kernel 6.10. We tested it with the VirtIO GPU and with some Radeon cards. Another error message: Failed to start Setup Virtual Console. Maybe this is the issue: + CONFIG_ARCH_HAS_KERNEL_FPU_SUPPORT=y Tested with FSL P5040, FSL P5020, and PASEMI boards. Could you please test Xorg on your PowerPC machines? Thanks, ChristianI tested the RC1 in a virtual e5500 QEMU PowerPC machine with Bochs VGA (-device VGA,vgamem_mb=256) and Xorg doesn't start either. Error message: xf86OpenConsole: KDSETMODE KD_GRAPHICS failed Inappropriate ioctl for device.
That is presumably because of this: https://lore.kernel.org/all/0da9785e-ba44-4718-9d08-4e96c1ba7ab2@kernel.org/ (local) cheers
