Comment 12 for bug 1609436

I have tried this Fedora live system - same bug, system won't boot, no video:
1b410e9889132274ed256d9966cd6538 Media/F24-x86_64-KDE-20160808.iso

Unlike Ubuntu (tested: ubuntu-16.04.1-desktop-amd64.iso), where the "nomodeset" boot option seems to be a good workaround, switching to another tty does not work (black screen, system frozen, including keyboard leds) on Fedora when using this option.
But using this option (Fedora live system boot menu, TAB, append "nomodeset", Enter), the system will at least boot and the login screen shows up. Apart from other issues that might arise because of this option, it seems to fix the boot process and the monitor won't go black until Ctrl + Alt + FX is pressed.

I feel like this bug should receive a bit more attention. After all, one of the most commonly used Linux distributions has stopped working (on this particular hardware) almost half a year ago.

In other words: Fedora Linux does not work on this computer anymore.
