Description Christian Casteyde 2014-10-21 16:54:29 UTC
Kernel 3.16
Slackware 14.37 32 bits
GCC 4.8.2

Since kernel 3.16 my laptop doesn't doesn't boot anymore. Just after boot, the console is filled with strange colored and blinking console characters, and the boot process stops there.
This bug is still present in 3.17.1.

I bisected the bug and give lspci and dmesg output (see attachments).

Seems to be fixed in 3.18.0, closing it.
