The 130 x86_64 is having problem on my Intel Z170 with advanced video cards
from Nvidia.  These are from the latest Maxwell family chipset. Problem
does not exist when using an Intel i915 video as the primary video.   The
problem is with nouveau driver.  Somehow the BIOS detection is not working
correctly as the kernel loads the Intel i915 when it is disabled in BIOS.
It also loads a second driver for nouveau, and if Nvidia is configured it
gets loaded as well.


On the Z170 platform, the 130 image boots if the Intel i915 is the primary
video.  I need to test with BIOS disable and enable.  Enable works on the
i915 as a primary display.  I am going to test when it is disabled in BIOS
on the i915.

I will report soon.
Regards,

Efrem
