Just a note. The "early" mkinitcpio way of Intel KMS is broken on my gf's system resulting in an instant reboot. "Late" kms way is still working. I had to use a rescue disc.

Maybe more user will be affected.

That is confusing, as it does exactly the same, just a bit earlier (and it works here, obviously).

Although early KMS is only useful for people who enter passphrases during boot - and people who care about how pretty their screen is - this is definitely a bug and a weird one. If we can narrow it down that would be nice.

To me it happened with the .30-3 or .30-4 kernel from _testing_ and btw my laptop has an nvidia card. Seems i had updated and hadnt rebooted for about a week to check if it actually works. I revented back to .29, along with a downgrade of klibc, mkinitcpio etc, booted and updated to -5 from core this morning. This one works OK. -- Greg
