Description Jiri Slaby 2010-04-20 14:00:23 UTC

Somehow the firmware is not loaded in the 1 minute period:
[    2.269754] generic-usb 0003:046D:C019.0001: input,hidraw0: USB HID v1.11 Mouse [Logitech Logitech USB Optical Mouse] on usb-0000:00:1d.3-2/input0

It is requested in initrd, probably there is nobody to feed it into the kernel?

$ zcat /boot/initrd|cpio -t|grep R520
lib/firmware/radeon/R520_cp.bin
lib/firmware/2.6.34-rc4-4-desktop/radeon/R520_cp.bin

$ zcat /boot/initrd|cpio -t|grep firmware
<lib/firmware stuff snipped>
lib/udev/firmware
lib/udev/rules.d/50-firmware.rules

I see only black screen, while it waits for the firmware.

$ rpm -q kernel-desktop udev kernel-firmware|sort
kernel-desktop-2.6.34-4.1.x86_64
kernel-firmware-20100227-2.2.noarch
udev-151-5.5.x86_64

Already reported, the problem is that the kms script is started before the udev script.
