When Fedora updated the Kernel package from 3.12 to 3.13 my notebook stopped booting (Kernel freezes) when a 2560 x 1440 high res monitor is attached. I have tried using 3.13.6 from kernel.org and the problem persists. The problem can be partially solved by passing nomodeset to Kernel which will make the Kernel to boot, but the screens never comes to life. When using 3.14-rc7 it boots again, the screen works, but with some oops messages.
How can I help fixing this issue?
I've reported te bug at: https://bugzilla.redhat.com/show_bug.cgi?id=1072557
