I installed yoper v2.1.0, but didn't ask to boot in either graphic nor text mode, so i recognized, on my first boot, that yoper crashes when tries to boot the X server. The last messages i get are something similar to "agp aperture size @ 128 MB" and something about pci slots.

Then nothing... monitor gets black, it seems to be off, or in stand-by mode.
Nothing happens if i press a button.

Is there a way to get to console mode and fix the problem ? It may be concerning my hercules 3dprophet kyroII videocard, so i imagine i could workaround the issue by selecting vesafb driver on XF86Config-4

Help please, bye

Have you tried to switch to console using ctrl+alt+F1?

If that works, try to login as root and check the /var/log/XFree86.0.log file to get some info on the problem.

Otherwise, you may be having a fb problem as you suggest. You can try to boot without framebuffer passing the parameter vga=normal to the kernel at boot time. The exact way to do this is boot loader dependent (LILO or GRUB).

Good luck!

UPDATE:

...nothing to do: with knoppix I:
1- modified inittab making 3 instead of 5 the initdefault
2- modified XF86Config-4 making fbdev the default driver

the result hasn't changed.
It seems to be a hardware issue, but on yoper's forum there's a user with my same videocard, and it worked.
I could esclude an incompatibility.

Precisely, system hangs upon the message, perhaps, of the pci irq probing.
It there a way to bypass this?

ps: the system completely freezes, there is no way to input, not from keyboard nor from mouse, there is no way to switch to another console, because it can't even arrive to the login!

BTW, do you whether /var/log/XFree86.0.log mantain its contents even after a shutdown or not?

bye

Have you tried changing your AGP apature size in the BIOS?

should it help?
That is maybe the only thing that never gave me problems in the past..... it's been set to 128MB for ages, never a single problem, and the message where the system hangs is concerning the pci irq probing... the agp aperture size probe was the previous one, do you think those things are connected?

bye

Maybe you're having some resource conflict with another PCI card. You could try booting with the bare minimum peripherals attached (ie: just the VGA, mouse and keyboard).

If that works, then try putting back the peripherals one at a time to see if/when the problem happens again.

that could be an idea, thank you

Problems seem to have no end...

The runlevel 3 gave exactly the same behaviour.
So i switched to runlevel 1 by pressing Ctrl-x and typing at the lilo prompt "YOS 1".
Finally i could arrive to a root login, and set temporally the default runlevel to 1, to make it easier for me to deal with the problem.

Now i'm trying to post some logs and other infos, but here other problems arise.
I wanted to show you i.e. the "messages" file in /var/log (it contains the very last message appeared), but to do so i must copy that file to my fully working windows partition, but:

/dev/hda1 (where win2000 resides) isn't mounted by default, and there is no entry in fstab
So i tried to create an experimental line in fstab (never done before), doing "mkdir /mnt/win" and adding to fstab

"/dev/hda1 /mnt/win auto rw,noauto,users 0 0"

then, typing "mount /mnt/win" it got mounted, but when i try to copy "messages" in /mnt/win it says "permission denied".
Maybe the NTFS fs doesn't permit me to write on it.
So am i obliged to create a fat32 partition to share data between linux and win2000 or there are some tools to write to ntfs? Arghh...

Trying to use the floppy then...but
there is no way to mount /dev/fd0 using a fat-formatted floppy, even if it's shown in fstab. Typing "mount -t fat /dev/fd0" i got "fat fs not supported by kernel"
I understood that I had to create a linux fs in the floppy, but i can't find the command to format it (also using the man pages).
And maybe the resulting disc won't be read by win2000. I remember that some tools existed to write on dos fs like the one used in common floppies, but i couldn't even find them.

So.... no logs.

But i noticed one thing that may help:
runlevel 3 and 5 don't work, instead 1 yes.
Looking at the rc1.d, rc3.d and rc5.d in /etc, i found that the "faulty" command is perhaps "hotplug", but i'm not sure, as the logging deamon doesn't run in runlevel 1.

Very last thing:
I suppose there also was another problem with "XF86Config-4" in /etc/X11.
From knoppix i created the XF86Config-4.manu suitable for my videocard, than renamed to XF86Config-4 to test if the problem was there (no).
There are other files starting with XF86Config:
XF86Config-4.presax
XF86Config-4 (the original one, I suppose)
XF86Config.

Well, the 2 above are linking to XF86Config, but also XF86Config links to itself!!

So, giving "startx" from root, it obviosly says it couldn't find the config file and tries to autoconfigure itself, with no result.
The X server found a framebuffer device (i suppose is my videocard) but it needs the busID of each one, and even if it's by default PCI:1:0:0 and my videocard is in the agp slot, it couldn't find it.

Trying the custom XFConfig-4.manu, it simply says "no screen found", even if everything is ok and is specified precisely "busID "PCI:1:0:"".

I would post the XF86Config-4.0.log, but obviously, i can't.

I apologize for the post's lenght, any suggestion?

To check if hotplug is the problem cause, you can quickly disable it by unsetting its execute permission. The script should be located in /etc/init.d or /etc/rc.d (I don't know yoper).

You can also try redirecting X's standard error when launching from command line like this:

startx 2> errorlog.txt

And you can also try making X auto-configure itself and write a config file with this:

xfree86 -configure

good luck!

i'll try, thank you

Just a thought :-)
I have seen this sort of thing in some distros with Nvidia cards I have used,
The machine seems to boot - but you get a black screen.
The cure was to turn off acpi if I remember correctly. That would also seem to tie in with the hotplug error too I think. Try simply adding "acpi=off" to your boot loader. Hopefully that will work :-)

I i well remember ACPI if off by default. In fact the kernel sets it off saying my BIOS is too old.

I dumped XFree86.0.log into /etc/X11/Xf86Config-4, erasing the lines with comments, keeping the autoconfiguration ones and adding to the device section relating the framebuffer device the entry
"BusID "PCI:1:0:0""

Finally X started with minor problem, not so cool to look at, and with no sound (i still have to arrange the last things in XF86Config-4)
And finally i found "Kformatter", that permitted me to format the floppy in dos fs (while NTFS is still saying "permission denied"), and then i mounted with
"mount -t msdos /dev/fd0 /floppy"

Now i can show you the logs with firefox via win2000 (no internet is in yoper yet):
