I run 4.3.0-r1 from the Gentoo unstable "branch". with -mm1 I X coming up just nicely, and now the screen just goes black after trying to start X, and it seems related to DRM. With -mm[56] the last bit I see in my X startup is this: (==) RADEON(0): Write-combining range (0x88000000,0x4000000) drmOpenDevice: minor is 0 drmOpenDevice: node name is /dev/dri/card0 [HANG] With -mm1 and 2.4.21preX it shows this: drmOpenDevice: minor is 0 drmOpenDevice: node name is /dev/dri/card0 drmOpenDevice: open result is -1, (No such device) drmOpenDevice: open result is -1, (No such device) drmOpenDevice: Open failed drmOpenDevice: minor is 0 drmOpenDevice: node name is /dev/dri/card0 drmOpenDevice: open result is -1, (No such device) drmOpenDevice: open result is -1, (No such device) drmOpenDevice: Open failed drmOpenDevice: minor is 0 drmOpenDevice: node name is /dev/dri/card0 drmOpenDevice: open result is 6, (OK) drmGetBusid returned '' (II) RADEON(0): [drm] loaded kernel module for "radeon" driver (II) RADEON(0): [drm] created "radeon" driver at busid "PCI:1:0:0" (II) RADEON(0): [drm] added 8192 byte SAREA at 0xf098d000 (II) RADEON(0): [drm] mapped SAREA 0xf098d000 to 0x40013000 . . . Although it hangs under -mm[56] the machine will still respond to CRTL-ALT-DEL and reboot nicely. The only modification to the kernel I've done it backing out smalldevfs (Gentoo likes to have the full thing). I've also tried having the DRM-stuff as modules and as compiled in, no difference The graphics adapter is a Radeon with 64Mb RAM: 01:00.0 VGA compatible controller: ATI Technologies Inc Radeon Mobility M7 LW [Radeon Mobility 7500] (prog-if 00 [VGA]) Subsystem: Compaq Computer Corporation: Unknown device 004a Control: I/O+ Mem+ BusMaster+ SpecCycle- MemWINV- VGASnoop- ParErr- Stepping+ SERR- FastB2B- Status: Cap+ 66Mhz+ UDF- FastB2B+ ParErr- DEVSEL=medium >TAbort- SERR- [disabled] [size=128K] Capabilities: [58] AGP version 2.0 Status: RQ=47 SBA+ 64bit- FW- Rate=x1,x2,x4 Command: RQ=31 SBA+ AGP+ 64bit- FW- Rate=x1 Capabilities: [50] Power Management version 2 Flags: PMEClk- DSI- D1+ D2+ AuxCurrent=0mA PME(D0-,D1-,D2-,D3hot-,D3cold-) Status: D0 PME-Enable- DSel=0 DScale=0 PME- Other than that 2.5.64-mm6 is very usable, but only in text mode. mvh, A Andrew Morton writes: > [SNIP] -- Alexander Hoogerhuis | alexh@ihatent.com CCNP - CCDP - MCNE - CCSE | +47 908 21 485 "You have zero privacy anyway.
