Hi, I just updated my gentoo-sources kernel from 5.15.52 to 5.15.59. It hangs on boot, just saying "Loading Linux Kernel gentoo-5.15.59." (or something very similar to that, I don't have it in front of me), and nothing else.
My .config is: https://pastebin.com/nRZ6a4ZY
To get my system to work, I have temporarily rolled back to 5.15.52.
I am using a UEFI system.
Any suggestions?

robert1234,

Turn off
Code:
CONFIG_DRM_SIMPLEDRM=y
It sounds like it all works, your just can't see it.
Don't even think of using a text editor.
Rebuild and reinstall your kernel. Reeboot to test.

Loading Linux Kernel gentoo-5.15.59 is a message from grub, or you boot loader.

After these changes, it still hangs in exactly the same way... :(
Any other ideas?

robert1234,

I assume you had enabled the simple FB driver before (I can see FB_EFI is already enabled). With enabling of "CONFIG_DRM_SIMPLEDRM=y" you killed old Simple FB, because "CONFIG_FB_SIMPLE" has these dependencies:
Code:
Depends on: HAS_IOMEM [=y] && FB [=y] && !DRM_SIMPLEDRM [=y]

I suggest to disable DRM_SIMPLEDRM and THEN you can/should enable FB_SIMPLE again. Keep in mind: There is a "little" mismatch between TEXT and Option ... SIMPLEDRM is here:
Code:
Device Drivers  --->
    Graphics support  --->
        [*] Simple framebuffer driver

(You will see the name of this option when selecting <Help>)
FB_SIMPLE is here:
Code:
Device Drivers  --->
    Graphics support  --->
        Frame buffer Devices  --->
            [*] Support for frame buffer devices  --->
                [*]   Simple framebuffer support

Can you paste again your recent 5.15.59 kernel config ?

Edit: before you can also try to disable this:
Code:
Device Drivers  --->
    Firmware Drivers  --->
        [ ] Mark VGA/VBE/EFI FB as generic system framebuffer

Here is the latest config. Sorry for the delay.
It hangs in the same way with this config too.

Please disable these:
Code:
CONFIG_AGP_SIS=y
CONFIG_AGP_VIA=y

and enable:
Code:
# CONFIG_FB_VESA is not set
