Bug#413463: xserver-xorg-video-ati: Crash on start with radeon driver
[ Follow up for bug 413463 ] I have reproduced the crash with version 6.6.191-1, but I also figured out what setting caused the crash: Option MergedFB false The above option seems to be the culprit, as removing it from xorg.conf lets me start X as usual. The reason I added this option in the first place is because otherwise I have no working Xv for video. (Only a black area where the video should be). I'm using a card with both VGA and DVI using a TFT monitor connected to the VGA port. It seems like X fails to detect that I'm only using one monitor, and thus gives me no Xv for the VGA port. I tried to fix this by specifically setting MonitorLayout NONE, TDMS but it also seems like my TFT monitor is detected as a CRT, as I needed to specify NONE, CRT, otherwise I only get a black screen. Should I file a separate bug about this? -- Cheers, Sven Arvidsson http://www.whiz.se PGP Key ID 760BDD22 signature.asc Description: This is a digitally signed message part

Looks like https://bugs.freedesktop.org/show_bug.cgi?id=10442 Option MergedFB off leads to segfault It has been reported this morning. The reason I added this option in the first place is because otherwise I have no working Xv for video. (Only a black area where the video should be). I'm using a card with both VGA and DVI using a TFT monitor connected to the VGA port. It seems like X fails to detect that I'm only using one monitor, and thus gives me no Xv for the VGA port.

Should I file a separate bug about this? Let's see what happens in this upstream bug first. We are close to the 6.7 release of the ATI driver, it's a good time to get such bugs fixed. If you basically copy-paste all what you said above in the upstream bug, they might tell you to file another bug, we'll see. Of course, feel free to provide even more details, and to tell them to fix this bug before releasing 6.7 :) Brice -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to [EMAIL PROTECTED] with a subject of unsubscribe. Trouble?

Hi, Any news on this yet? Should I report it directly to upstream instead? -- Cheers, Sven Arvidsson http://www.whiz.se PGP Key ID 760BDD22 signature.asc Description: This is a digitally signed message part

I tried falling back to xserver-xorg-core 1.2.0-5 and xserver-xorg-video-ati 6.6.3-4 but with the same results. Falling back further, to xserver-xorg-video-ati version 6.6.3-2, I can't reproduce this and everything seem to work fine. -- Cheers, Sven Arvidsson http://www.whiz.se PGP Key ID 760BDD22 signature.asc Description: This is a digitally signed message part

Hi,
Sure, I'm attaching the backtrace.
BTW, that page doesn't have any tips on getting a backtrace from X.
Maybe one of the examples from this page could be adapted?
http://wiki.x.org/wiki/DebuggingTheXserver . I ended up using Debugging
with one machine, version 1.
Also, thanks for following up on this bug so fast! :)
