There are no errors or mention of nouveau in dmesg. With “nomodeset”, the system boots to X11 and the display manager, and I can log in to a window manager or desktop environment. I can ssh in and do anything that’s not X11-related, but while shutdown -r or shutdown -P do kill the system, the laptop remains frozen until hardware power is turned off. dmesg shows crashes and the laptop’s keyboard does nothing, including no response to ALT-F1, CTRL-ALT-F1, or CTRL-ALT-DEL. Using nouveau, unless “nomodeset” is in the kernel parameters, the system hangs during boot. I added several EXTRA_CFLAGS += entries which fixed that problem but the build still fails with fatal errors, including a problem with varargs (it’s getting a C++ include file with a “namespace” line that isn’t guarded by #ifdef _cplusplus so it of course fails when compiling C source code). Even with the “devel_C_C++” and “devel_kernel” patterns installed the Makefile can’t find many basic “ #include” files. That gives no errors but doesn’t bring up X11. I installed and tried to run the “nvidia…G03…” packages from because the main repos don’t provide them. Infinitely more details available upon request. The following summarizes where I stand after a week of hacking before coming back asking again for help. As per a previous post, have an older laptop with NVIDIA graphics that runs Leap 15.1 without problems but requires “nomodeset” on the kernel commandline to boot Tumbleweed.
