Package: cdebconf-gtk-udeb
Version: 0.110
Severity: important
Tags: d-i
On my laptop the graphical installer freezes the machine, probably
during initialization of directfb. When it freezes, it shows a
completely grey screen with only a mouse cursor. This only happens since
the switch to 2.6.18 kernels.
I've finally been able to trace the problem to a config change in the
kernel:
-CONFIG_INPUT_MOUSEDEV=m
+CONFIG_INPUT_MOUSEDEV=y
A 2.6.18 kernel compiled without that option works fine.
I would guess the bug is in directfb as I'd say that having MOUSEDEV
compiled in is completely valid. However, it is strange that the same
issue has not yet been reported for other systems. I guess it could also
be a bug in some hardware specific code for my hardware.
Some help from directfb developers how to further trace this issue would
be very welcome.
