Hi,

this is similar to #464667 but I am using the stock Debian 2.6.26-1-amd64 
kernel. DRI init fails and the screen is corrupted when X starts. The screen 
appears to lock and pressing CTRL-ALT-F1 (for a terminal) reboots the machine. 
This is running on an HP 6735s laptop and everything worked prior to 8-12-4.

Xorg log file attached.

My Googling found this thread on the phoronix forums:
http://www.phoronix.com/forums/showpost.php?p=57969

which seemed to suggest the issue was connected to CONFIG_PCI_LEGACY being 
enabled in the kernel. To eliminate this I compiled my own kernel with that 
disabled (it's enabled in the default kernel) but the new kernel bugs out on 
this machine. I guess another piece of hardware needs the legacy PCI stuff.

Anyway AFAICS the 8-12-4 driver does not work with the standard amd64 2.6.26 
kernel but I am open to ideas.

thanks
Ryan

Hello,

no it is working with the Lenny amd64 Kernel, I also have two machines
with the same constelation.

Which card are you using? Which kernel module is loaded?
What says dmesg, modinfo fglrx and dpkg -l|grep fglrx?

Anyway this is not a RC bug, if just 3D accerlation does not work, so on
I am downgrading first.

Okay with the downgrading - especially if it works for some.

This is an onboard chip on a laptop...

My machine locks up if I enable the fglrx-driver so I can't give you the response of modinfo.

hope this helps
Ryan
