(this is a re-post of a problem I was having yesterday, but today it's more accurate and has better details, and a worthwhile subject).
I'm trying to get KMS working on my centrino laptop. The problem that I'm having is that a moment after X starts (I get the mouse cursor for a bit under a second), X crashes with this backtrace: Backtrace: 0: X(xorg_backtrace+0x26) [0x4e0f16] 1: X(xf86SigHandler+0x39) [0x48c539] 2: /lib/libc.so.6 [0x7f1b759861d0] 3: /usr/lib/libdrm_intel.so.1 [0x7f1b747fe2c4] 4: /usr/lib/libdrm_intel.so.1 [0x7f1b747fe1e4] 5: /usr/lib/libdrm_intel.so.1 [0x7f1b747fe68c] 6: /usr/lib64/xorg/modules/drivers//intel_drv.so(intel_batch_flush+0xa2) [0x7f1b74a21bf2] 7: /usr/lib64/xorg/modules/drivers//intel_drv.so [0x7f1b74a4912b] 8: /usr/lib64/xorg/modules/drivers//intel_drv.so [0x7f1b74a5dcaf] 9: /usr/lib64/xorg/modules/drivers//intel_drv.so [0x7f1b74a5e0b2] 10: X [0x520eaf] 11: X [0x4f99e7] 12: X [0x4fa875] 13: X(Dispatch+0x334) [0x448ab4] 14: X(main+0x415) [0x430735] 15: /lib/libc.so.6(__libc_start_main+0xf4) [0x7f1b759734a4] 16: X [0x42fb39] Fatal server error: Caught signal 11. Server aborting I've tried with kernels 2.6.29 and 2.6.30rc6, tiling enabled and disabled. My software versions are: x11-base/xorg-server-1.5.3-r6 x11-drivers/xf86-video-intel-2.7.1 libdrm developement, but also tried 2.4.11. lspci reports the video card as "Intel Corporation Mobile 4 Series Chipset Integrated Graphics Controller"; the laptop is a Sony Vaio Z590, if that helps any. I also notice that when I startx, the screen goes blank for a moment before it brings up the graphical mode; I thought that KMS was supposed to eliminate that flicker, so maybe I'm doing something wrong? My xorg.conf, config.gz, and Xorg.0.log are all attached.
