I have this problem with linux 2.6 (2.4 was ok). I hope this is the right place to report this, i think it is related with "drm" mga module.. The problem is: framebuffer (matroxfb) works fine, X (xfree 4.3 or Xorg 6.7) works fine, but sometimes when i hit "ctrl alt F1" for switching on the console, the system freeze. It's not only a xfree freeze: no SysRq reboot and no working network (sshd is not responding). hard freeze. This happen *sometimes* : i switch between X and console many times during the day, the box freeze only 2-3 times a day. I don't known where to go to find the problem, the only interesting element i have is: 2.4: kernel: [drm] AGP 0.99 Aperture @ 0xe0000000 64MB kernel: [drm] Initialized mga 3.0.2 20010321 on minor 0 2.6: kernel: [drm] Initialized mga 3.1.0 20021029 on minor 0 kernel: agpgart: Found an AGP 2.0 compliant device at 0000:00:00.0. kernel: agpgart: Putting AGP V2 device at 0000:00:00.0 into 1x mode kernel: agpgart: Putting AGP V2 device at 0000:02:00.0 into 1x mode seems related with the module version.. my stuffs: video card: Matrox G400 DH on nvidia nforce2 motherboard kernel: vanilla 2.6.3/5 (nforce2 agp/matrox drm/matroxfb support) X server: Xfree 4.3.0 or Xorg r6.7 using "mga" driver now i'm using dri CVS.. seems more stable, but i'v just got an hard freeze while using mozilla.. i've posted this on the LKML there are other people with this problem, replies: - It also happens with Matrox G550 on VIA board. All 2.6.x kernels. XFree86 4.3 and 4.4. And [EMAIL PROTECTED] do not work (in fb, X is fine) :-( - Same thing here with Asus P4-PE board. No matroxfb here, so this doesn't seem to be the problem. I guess it's more an issue with agpart/drm. - Add me to the list... Matrox G400, AMD Irongate chipset. It never seems to happen when X shuts down on it's own or when it just startet up, that is, when I switch from the login screen. - helpppppp !! -- Configure bugmail: http://freedesktop.org/bugzilla/userprefs.cgi?tab=email ------- You are receiving this mail because: ------- You are the assignee for the bug, or are watching the assignee. ------------------------------------------------------- This SF.Net email is sponsored by: GNOME Foundation Hackers Unite!
