hi starting x or gdm on my new kernel image hangs the system... no response to any stimulus... reboot needed.
the XF86config-4 file works perfectly with 2.2.20 custom or kernel-image. startx 2>xlog leaves no trace. /var/log/XFree86.0.log is created. it runs to the end. the only error reported is: (==) MGA(0): Write-combining range (0xe3000000,0x1000000) (--) MGA(0): 64 DWORD fifo (==) MGA(0): Default visual is TrueColor (II) MGA(0): [drm] bpp: 32 depth: 24 (II) MGA(0): [drm] Sarea 2200+664: 2864 [drm] failed to load kernel module "mga" (II) MGA(0): [drm] drmOpen failed (EE) MGA(0): [drm] DRIScreenInit failed. Disabling DRI. (II) MGA(0): Using 2252 lines for offscreen memory. (II) MGA(0): Using XFree86 Acceleration Architecture (XAA) i believe that this is ok, since mga is already loaded. this same error occurs under 2.2.20 and everything works ok. visually, after startx, you see a flash of startup go by and then the screen goes to black. both mga and agpgart are installed. any clues or suggestion would be most welcome. thank you dave -- Dave Mallery, K5EN (r/h 7.2 krud; debian woody) PO Box 520 Ramah, NM 87321 no gates .~. no windows... /V\ /( )\ running GNU/Linux ^^-^^ (Linux TM Linus Torvalds) free at last! -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to [EMAIL PROTECTED] with a subject of "unsubscribe".
