[Bug 906045] Re: installer crashed grub-efi

2012-02-22 Thread Vincent Caron
I confirm the bug on the very same hardware. However I think this bug should be triaged against the latest kernel, since : 1/ it's actually crashing in the kernel while trying to write an EFI var (to setup the GRUB boot entry I think); I only traced it to grub- install calling 'efibootmgr -c

Once the bug is worked around (via BIOS Video Expansion On), xdpyinfo and xrandr output are identical. Xorg.log and ddcprobe are different I think (did not have old versions locally to run diff), I'm attaching them just in case. ** Attachment added: Xorg.0.log_nobug.txt
