Description
This test case tests whether basic X initialization is successful with the Intel video driver, with kernel mode setting enabled. You must be using a video adapter supported by the driver, and Fedora 11 or later (or Rawhide from any time after mid-February 2009).
How to test
- Ensure the 'nomodeset' kernel parameter is not enabled in your bootloader configuration
- Ensure the file /etc/X11/xorg.conf does not exist, or is a known-good configuration file that uses the 'intel' driver
- Shut your system down entirely, then start it up again
Expected Results
- (KMS) The boot process should be in graphical mode as soon as initrd has loaded (very shortly after the bootloader)
- (KMS) The boot process (and, later, X) should use the correct native resolution for your monitor
- (Plymouth) Progress animations should be displayed throughout boot, then cross-fade into the GDM login screen. If using the special live CD for the Test Day on this topic, Plymouth will not work, you will see a text-mode progress bar at the bottom of the screen, but it should be in native resolution
- (Plymouth) No flickering or mode changes should occur from initrd right through to GDM
- The system should boot successfully to the normal graphical login screen
