Bug#444739: xserver-xorg-video-mga: infinite loops once in a while
Package: xserver-xorg-video-mga Version: 1:1.9.99.dfsg.1-1 Severity: normal Hi, I am running unstable on a newly installed system. Graphics card is a Matrox G450 Dual Head, with two TFT displays connected via VGA. The xserver-xorg-video-mga is the version from experimental. Once in a while, the driver gets into an endless loop: X takes all available CPU, does not react any more, and is not killable. When SIGKILL is finally used, sometimes the entire system crashes. This is also in upstream bugzilla, #12627. Sorry, no dependency information as I am filing this bug from a different system. Greetings Marc -- System Information: Debian Release: lenny/sid APT prefers unstable APT policy: (500, 'unstable') Architecture: i386 (i686) -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to [EMAIL PROTECTED] with a subject of unsubscribe.

Hi, you mentioned on irc that you got lots of (EE) MGA(0): [dri] Idle timed out, resetting engine... in the log. One thing that would probably be worth trying is to disable dri. To do that, add 'Disable dri' in the Module section of xorg.conf. Cheers, Julien signature.asc Description: Digital signature
