#7619: Hang on rocket icon: Toshiba Satellite 2615DVD ----------------------------------+---------------------------- Reporter: umccullough | Owner: axeld Type: bug | Status: new Priority: normal | Milestone: R1 Component: Servers/app_server | Version: R1/Development Resolution: | Keywords: Blocked By: | Blocking: Has a Patch: 0 | Platform: All ----------------------------------+---------------------------- Comment (by umccullough): Replying to [comment:5 axeld]: > Since you only see the message once, it looks like the second call succeeds. I take it also does not work with failsafe video mode of 800x600x16 on the internal screen? Oh :) - it does actually boot to a desktop when forced to either 800x600x16 or 800x600x32. The latter seems to take several minutes from the rocket icon before it shows a blue background. (probably why I assumed it had failed before) If I don't specify a mode manually, it never seems to get to a desktop at all, even after sitting overnight. > Does the machine really hang, or can you talk to it via the network? Yeah, I believe it is still technically running, just without a desktop - I see the activity light on my USB ethernet adapter blinking (no built-in ethernet on this one). On a side note, there is something fundamentally wrong with Haiku on this machine - it runs amazingly slow (only 430mhz P3 Celeron, but it's still not running properly). Haiku doesn't seem to keep proper time on this machine either. I timed how long it took for 10 seconds to tick off the system clock with Haiku running, and it was ~72 seconds wall time. I'm guessing there's some kind of timer issue at work here. -- Ticket URL: <http://dev.haiku-os.org/ticket/7619#comment:6> Haiku <http://dev.haiku-os.org> Haiku - the operating system.
