Hang after "BIOS data check successful" with DVI
When I have a DVI display plugged into my Matrox G550 video card the boot process hangs at "BIOS data check successful". I am running Linux kernel 2.6.6. This problem does not affect Linux kernel 2.4.26. If I boot without the DVI display plugged in, I can plug it in after the boot process and the display works.
Please cc me in your reply. Thanks,
Shaun

Shaun,
#kernel on freenode recommends that users running the 2.6.x tree to stay at 2.6.7+, so try upgrading your kernel, stay above 2.6.7 and see what happens.
