I see.

I looked at it and the symptoms from comment 17 and comment 19
(blank screen with only the cursor visible) looks like it's very similar
to my case. Only when removing the "quiet" kernel command line option,
more is left visible on the screen, not just the cursor.

Do you mean mean with Mesa 9.2.5 and Xorg server 1.14.4 in
Fedora 20 at this time, it's not possible unless I compile my own
llvm-3.5 SVN, Mesa 10.1 or 10.2 GIT and Xorg 1.15 GIT?

I tried to upgrade to rawhide at least in part:

[zozo@localhost ~]$ rpm -q kernel mesa-libGL xorg-x11-server-Xorg llvm-libs
kernel-3.13.3-201.fc20.x86_64
mesa-libGL-10.1-0.rc1.20140208.fc21.x86_64
mesa-libGL-10.1-0.rc1.20140208.fc21.i686
xorg-x11-server-Xorg-1.15.0-3.fc21.x86_64
llvm-libs-3.4-4.fc21.x86_64
llvm-libs-3.4-4.fc21.i686

I still get the same problem. Attached is the log from both 1.14.4 (FC20)
and 1.15.0 (rawhide), with this change so the timing info is cut off from
the beginning of each line to make it easier to produce a diff between
the two files:

[zozo@localhost ~]$ cat Xorg.0.log.hainan-active | cut -d ']' -f 2- 
 >Xorg.0.log.hainan-active-no-timing
[zozo@localhost ~]$ cat /var/log/Xorg.0.log | cut -d ']' -f 2- 
 >Xorg.0.log.hainan-active-no-timing-1.15

Best regards,
