Hi Brice,

Thanks for the follow up. The problem was only resolved by installing
driver package from Matrox.  It overwrote the mga_drv driver within
the X libraries area, and then X would start.  Prior to that I had tried 
building

the package from debian sources and every angle I could think of.

I know that months before that, I had problems with switching video 
cards from
nvidia to matrox.  In that case, a proprietary nvidia library was 
getting in the way

of making GLX work for Matrox.  I may have installed the Matrox prop. driver
way back then in attempts to overwrite this, and then this required working
with the matrox driver from here on - breaking only when X was updated.
I'm sorry I don't have more details.  I have a lot of systems to take 
care of

and my desktop is probably the least important of them, so I probably don't
take as much note of what I do there.

Thanks,

--Donald Teed

Bug#394821: mga_drv unresolved symbols after 4.3.0.dfsg.1-14sarge2 upgrade

2007-01-17 Thread Brice Goglin 
Hi,

The unresolved symbol errors that you get with the free mga driver looks
strange. I wonder whether you installed some non-official librairies
that could be incompatible with the X server. You should try to
reinstall the packages that contain the following files:
/usr/X11R6/lib/modules/extensions/libGLcore.a
/usr/X11R6/lib/modules/fonts/libspeedo.a
/usr/X11R6/lib/modules/drivers/mga_drv.o
And eventually check that all other packages got installed fine by the
upgrade. Reinstall the whole bunch of X packages might help too. I know
that this looks like what you've done previously, but I'd rather be sure
that everything is installed fine since there is no reason for libraries
to break like this on your machine without breaking anywhere else.

Brice

Bug#394821: mga_drv unresolved symbols after 4.3.0.dfsg.1-14sarge2 upgrade

2006-10-23 Thread D G Teed 

Package: xserver-xfree86
Version: 4.3.0.dfsg.1-14sarge2

I have a G400 that was working fine in the most previous
release (sarge1?) of xfree86 group of packages in Debian 3.1 stable.

On the first reboot following the upgrade to 4.3.0.dfsg.1-14sarge2
of the series of related xfree86 packages, X refuses to
run, with errors like so:

...and a few more lines like these before "Fatal server error".

Everything was fine with the same XF86Config file
previously.  If I switch to vesa, X starts OK.
However I need dual monitors so mga is a must.

It appears that Debian's Xfree86 sources are unique,
so compiling a solution as per http://dri.freedesktop.org/wiki/Building
doesn't seem to be an option within Debian stable.

I tried downgrading to sarge1, but it has not helped:

for pack in `COLUMNS=200 dpkg -l | grep x | grep 4.3.0.dfsg.1-14sarge2 | awk 
'{print $2}'`; do apt-get -y install --reinstall $pack=4.3.0.dfsg.1-14sarge1; 
done



Any more information needed, please ask me...
