           Summary: mach64 DRI driver hangs machine on X server startup
           Product: DRI
           Version: unspecified
          Platform: x86 (IA32)
        OS/Version: Linux (All)
            Status: NEW
          Severity: major
          Priority: high
         Component: DRM/other
        AssignedTo: dri-devel@lists.sourceforge.net
        ReportedBy: tempura....@gmail.com


Hi all!

I am currently trying to enable DRI with my (aged) machine using the mach64
driver.

I have built the drm.ko and mach64.ko according to
http://dri.freedesktop.org/wiki/Building (based on git clone
git://anongit.freedesktop.org/git/mesa/drm).

The problem can be reproduced as:
1) load drm.ko and mach64.ko (will load fine)
2) restart X

Result: the computer hangs - completely. Caps lock and Scroll lock lights are
blinking. Only a hard reset recovers the machine.

Without loading the modules the mach64 driver shipped with the distro will work
fine (except DRI of course). Here is some excerpt from the Xorg.0.log:

...
(II) MACH64(0): [drm] SAREA 2200+1208: 3408
drmOpenDevice: node name is /dev/dri/card0
drmOpenDevice: node name is /dev/dri/card0
[drm] failed to load kernel module "mach64"
(EE) [drm] drmOpen failed.
(EE) MACH64(0): [dri] DRIScreenInit Failed
...
