Using the standard boot line, there is a total freeze few seconds after gdm starts. I have enough time to type 3 or 4 letters to login then - total freeze (CTL-ALT-F1 or CTRL-ALT-DEL do not work).
If I shift back fast enough to console (CTL-ALT-F1) once gdm has started, then I can observe the same freeze. I repeated this 2 or 3 times and instead of the complete freeze, I finally got a panic (no oops, the kernel has been modified twice since I got the oops last time, may be this explains it). double fault, gdt at C1C07000 [255 bytes] double fault, tss at c1c0d280 eip = c04ed5cb esp = 00000027 eax = c0686b80 ebx = ffffff00 ecx = 00010246 edx = 00000000 esi = f5d4cd34 edi = f5d4cd00 The machine is an old AMD athlon 2Ghz Barton with a Radeon 9800 pro. (using fglrx). It works flawlessly under Ibex or under 2.6.27.7 (jaunty). If I can do more sensible "testing" if needed: I take advices.
