Thanks for the report. In order to investigate this issue, we need you to attach the X server config file, X server log, and the /var/log/messages files as individual uncompressed file attachments using the bugzilla file attachment feature below. The files should be taken from a failed X server startup attempt. In addition, we will need the output of "lsmod" from after attempting to start up the X server. We will review this issue once the above information has been attached to the bug report, and update the status. Thanks in advance. Setting status to "NEEDINFO" Mike: Any server segfaults on IA64 with recent packages may very well be the exact same problem referenced in bug #127323 and is fixed in errata RHBA-2004:155, I suggest installing a package with the XFree86-4.1.0-elf-loader-mmap-prot-exec.patch applied. I've looked into XFree86 4.3.0, and the stock code seems to already contain some of what XFree86-4.1.0-elf-loader-mmap-prot-exec.patch fixed in the 4.1.0 release. We also apply a patch to 4.3.0 named "XFree86-4.3.0-elfloader-linux-non-exec-stack-v2.patch" which seems to fix the remaining issues that the previous 4.1.0 patch fixed. * Tue May 6 2003 Bill Nottingham <notting> 4.3.0-10 - Updated XFree86-4.3.0-elfloader-linux-non-exec-stack-v2.patch to fix elfloader to page align addresses it passes to mprotect The above changelog entry shows this was applied to 4.3.0-10, so this patch should be present in 4.3.0-35.EL as well. Please upgrade to XFree86-4.3.0-68.EL, which is the currently supported version of XFree86 on Red Hat Enterprise Linux 3, as well as the kernel and any other outdated packages. If the problem persists still on a fully updated RHEL3 system, please provide a status update. Setting bug status back to "NEEDINFO", and awaiting status update. Thanks in advance. Since this bugzilla report was filed, there have been several major updates to the X Window System for Red Hat Enterprise Linux 3, which we believe may resolve this issue. Users who have experienced this problem are encouraged to upgrade to run up2date and update their system to the latest packages available, including updating the kernel and rebooting into the new kernel.ownload If this issue turns out to still be reproduceable in the latest Red Hat Enterprise Linux updates, please contact Red Hat Global Support Services at 1-888-REDHAT1 and one of our technical support associates will assist resolving the issue. Setting status to "CURRENTRELEASE". |
