Re: [Bug 83151] Re: Kubuntu Herd 3 fails to start X on Inspiron 5100
Thanks for the additional information. I gather that the wireless card is a PCMCIA card is that correct? If so please add the output of 'dmesg', 'pccardctl ident' and 'lspci -vvn' to your bug report. Additionally, have you used this card with prior versions of Ubuntu / Kubuntu? If so which ones?

Yes, I meant PCMCIA when I typed in PC card. I've used this card with Ubuntu 5.10 and Kubuntu 5.10, 6.06 and 6.10 and all of them worked properly (the last two, their Live/Desktop CDs booted to X with no problem with my wireless adapter plugged in). -- Kubuntu Herd 3 fails to start X on Inspiron 5100 https://launchpad.net/bugs/83151 -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs

Comment to say that the daily Feisty build from February 6 boots properly from the CD with my network card plugged in. Looks like this bug is limited to the Herd 3 CDs themselves. -- Kubuntu Herd 3 fails to start X on Inspiron 5100 https://launchpad.net/bugs/83151 -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs

Thanks for your bug report. Could you try booting the kernel off of the Herd 3 CD without splash and quiet so we can get some more information about the bug?

[Bug 83151] Re: Kubuntu Herd 3 fails to start X on Inspiron 5100
When I start the live CD without the splash and quiet options, there does not appears to be any errors that come up on boot up. After the hardware detection, the screen goes black for a second, then returns to normal and starts the normal startup scripts. While those are being executed, nothing out of the ordinary comes up. After the scripts are finished running, I am dumped to a terminal prompt. The only way I can start the X server is by running startx from the prompt. -- Kubuntu Herd 3 fails to start X on Inspiron 5100 https://launchpad.net/bugs/83151 -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
[Bug 83151] Re: Kubuntu Herd 3 fails to start X on Inspiron 5100
Okay, after further hardware testing, I think I've isolated the problem to my wireless card, a D-Link GWL-G630 PC card with an Atheros chipset. When I tried booting the Kubuntu CD with the wireless card not inserted, it went through the whole boot process properly, including starting X. When I tried inserting the card in during the live environment, the device was not picked up by the system and checking /dev found no new nodes that would indicate a wireless device. I'd have to find if the other person over on the forums that was having this problem has an Atheros wireless card, or if it's something else about the hardware. -- Kubuntu Herd 3 fails to start X on Inspiron 5100 https://launchpad.net/bugs/83151 -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
