compiled and booted 6.17.11-rc1 on my laptop (typical usual machine)
no typical errors and  typical warnings .
so the error has something to do with my Desktop
one thing i want to say is that  my onboard graphics is connected to a vga port
which is converted to hdmi using a converter. video=VGA-1:1366x768@144.
