Bug#353494: xserver-xorg: fails to start on Cyrix 6x86L CPU (SIGILL)
Brice Goglin wrote: Hi, About 2 years ago, you reported (or replied to) a bug in the Debian BTS regarding the X server not starting on a Cyrix 6x86 processor. Did any of you guys reproduce this problem recently? With Xorg/Etch? With latest xserver-xorg-core in unstable? Thanks, Brice I haven't checked recently because I decided to upgrade the machine in question from a Cyrix 486DX2 (which, I've since found out, doesn't support CPUID at all and should be excluded from any CPUID-based checks...) to a Pentium OverDrive, which works with no problems (aside from being slow, of course). -lee -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to [EMAIL PROTECTED] with a subject of "unsubscribe".

If not, I can try to hurry-up the things I need to do to get the machine out of storage and available for experiments. But if it's convenient for you, I can take it at a more sedate pace. So we can (perhaps) do a better job of tracking down the problem. Debian cares much more about non-x86 architectures than many other distributions. However, since few people have powerpc, it takes time to debug when you need to find somebody with knowledge to reproduce the problem first :( Exactly. And I'm very glad you are willing to take the time to help me figure out this bug. Many thanks! Rick -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to [EMAIL PROTECTED] with a subject of "unsubscribe". Trouble?

It will take a little while for me to get to this. I put the machine in storage when Etch went "live". If there's still interest in the issue, I'll get it back out and we can do any experiments you want to do. Unfortunately, "real" life is taking a bit more time than usual recently (my boss got promoted and I'm down and dirty with getting his replacement installed...) so it may be a week or two before I can get to it. Is that OK? Rick PS: I'd sort of assumed that there was almost no interest in Debian for OldWorld PowerMacs, and not much more for PowerPC in general. Am I wrong?

Could the problem be related to switching to a VT console and then back to X? Or related to some applications? Could you send the output of /usr/share/bug/xserver-xorg-core/script 3>&1 so that we see your config and log (reportbug should have included this output automatically in your first report).

Bug#426286: Erratic Caps lock and Ctrl key behavior
Package: xserver-xorg-input-kbd Version: 1:1.1.0-4 On a Thinkpad X40 keyboard - tried with both a standard american English keyboard and german Deutsch one - there is something extremely bizarre going on that seem to involve Caps Lock and Ctrl keys. Intermittently the Caps lock seems to get activated even though the Caps Lock LCD indicator light is off. Normally to fix it, shift + a character must be pressed, after which releasing the Shift key will return keys to lowercase. More troubling is that from time to time somehow the Ctrl key seems to get stuck on. This can be extremely dangerous as subsequent keypresses are now Ctrl-key combinations and have the potential to kill processes, shut down terminals, etc. I still do not know how Ctrl key gets untoggled in this state, but it is not by pressing the Ctrl key. When this problem initially occurred I thought perhaps there was some severe problem with the keyboard. But changing the keyboard made no difference. I also completely re-installed Debian but the problem persisted. The problem does not, however, occur under non-Debian. -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to [EMAIL PROTECTED] with a subject of "unsubscribe".

Bug#375553: xserver-xorg: Server freezes switching to console and back
Hi Nicola, Thanks a lot for building and testing the latest release of the sis driver. I found a bug report upstream about problems when switching to console and back to X, see [1]. It's not a freeze like your problem, but at least it confirms that the driver has problem in this area. We'll see what happen (and hope the driver will get good maintenance in the future).

Debian bug tracking system administrator (administrator, Debian Bugs database) --- Begin Message --- Package: xserver-xfree86 Version: 4.1.0-6 Hi, I recently upgraded XFree86 on an older machine, which includes a Diamond Stealth II S220 video card, which has been flashed to Diamond Multimedia's version 1.36 BIOS. This is a 4MB PCI video card with a Rendition Verite 2100 video chip. Startup of the X-server is by way of GDM. The problematic behavior is that the image of what should be a GDM log-in widget consists instead of several near- horizontal bands of gray on a bright-red background. The image resembles the result of incorrect monitor horizontal sync, except that the X pointer is intact and functions correctly overtop of the distorted image when the "hardware cursor" option is selected, but is part of the distorted image when "software cursor" is selected. Also, all hardware was functioning correctly prior to the XFree86 upgrade, and functions correctly now in VGA mode. Most X-windows functionality is not compromised -- by careful mouse movement and attention to the "text-input" curosr, it is possible to find the log-in window, type in a username and password, and log in successfully, as indicated by the appearance of wtmp/utmp entries. However, it is not possible to switch between virtual X-servers by means of control-Fx. (This last item may be my own misconfiguration, I have not investigated this yet.) This evidence suggests to me that, in this circumstance, the card is able to map images correctly to the monitor (i.e. the X cursor), but that the image has been assembled incorrectly in video memory. The X log file contains one anomolous warning about memory mapping, to which I draw your attention because I believe it to be particularly relevant.
