Update 4.0 to 4.1 and not working

[ezeras]

Hello. I updated my sabayon from 4.0 to 4.1 and now when it booted show just black screen. I can't log in sabayon. I think that kernel changes graphical driver. Need help.

Graphic card ATI 2900.

You will need to reinstall your graphics drivers.

Code: Select all

equo update && equo install x11-drivers/ati-drivers-8.593-r11#(ouptut of "uname -r" here)

e.g.
x11-drivers/ati-drivers-8.593-r11#2.6.29-sabayon

you could try

Code: Select all

equo update && equo install x11-drivers/ati-drivers-8.593-r11#${uname -r }

but not sure if my bash is right there LOL

Then reset your opengl options

Code: Select all

eselect opengl set ati

Then reboot

press <alt> <F1> during the boot screen, so that you get the bootup messages. Then press I for interactive boot. Let the system start most of the services, but not the graphical interface -- skip gdm -- then exit at some point. You should be able to log in at this point and fix things. You could also boot to runlevel 3, or once you have the locked up black screen, you could possibly get out of it with part of Magic SysRq sequence -- just don't press <alt> <Sys-Rq> B for reboot.
