Just did a dnf update which (among other things) got the new kernel 5.8.12-200.fc32.x86_64.
Rebooted after installing everything (and letting akmods finish building and installing). Got a totally black screen with a mouse cursor in the middle that wouldn't move. After staring at it for a bit, I started trying to login via ssh from my phone, but about half way through typing my password, the black screen suddenly showed the sddm login screen. However, neither the keyboard or mouse were functioning. I unplugged the wireless dongles for both of them and plugged them back in, and now the mouse works, but the keyboard still doesn't work. I used the mouse and the onscreen button to completely shutdown the system, gave it a few seconds to cool off, then hit the power button to boot again, and everything worked perfectly fine on the power up boot. What was that? Can a reboot leave USB in some weird state that the new kernel doesn't recognize and only a complete power cycle works? What was it doing during the five minutes or so it was showing a blank screen on the first boot (was graphics also in a weird state from the old to new kernel transition?) Hopefully it will remain happy now. _______________________________________________ users mailing list -- users@lists.fedoraproject.org To unsubscribe send an email to users-le...@lists.fedoraproject.org Fedora Code of Conduct: https://docs.fedoraproject.org/en-US/project/code-of-conduct/ List Guidelines: https://fedoraproject.org/wiki/Mailing_list_guidelines List Archives: https://lists.fedoraproject.org/archives/list/users@lists.fedoraproject.org
