http://people.redhat.com/davej/kernels/Fedora Any better with the latest test kernel from here? (Make sure you upgrade to FC3updates udev before booting the 2.6.11 kernels.) Sounds like you are having the same issue I'm having with my bug here: https://bugzilla.redhat.com/bugzilla/show_bug.cgi?id=144867 The 2.6.9 kernels seem to work fine with DRI enabled, but any kernel after that, including the 2.6.11 one in FC3 testing locks good and hard. Please ignore any earlier posts on that bug report about 2.6.9 kernels also causing lockups, I have not been able to repeat that and the 2.6.9 kernels have run fine. Still locking in kernel-2.6.11-1.14_FC3 Ok, I tried something new, and narrowed the issue down to something with the AGP driver used. By using Option "BusType" "PCI" and forcing the xorg to use the AGP card as a PCI card, everything works as expected. The only issue being that it is slower than Using AGP mode. I also filed a bug upstream with kernel.org since I found the same issue with a 2.6.11.6 kernel I compiled from them. That bug can be found here: http://bugzilla.kernel.org/show_bug.cgi?id=4513 An update has been released for Fedora Core 3 (kernel-2.6.12-1.1372_FC3) which may contain a fix for your problem. Please update to this new kernel, and report whether or not it fixes your problem. If you have updated to Fedora Core 4 since this bug was opened, and the problem still occurs with the latest updates for that release, please change the version field of this bug to 'fc4'. Thank you. Unfortunately, the problem persists with the latest kernel. Currently running kernel-2.6.12-1.1372_FC3 with xorg-x11-6.8.2-1.FC3.13 on Fedora Core 3. Same issue as before, still get the moving mouse on a black screen with screwed up images at the very top. No keyboard response, but the system isn't locked, can ssh in and cleanly shutdown the system. With Option "BusType" "PCI" set the system will boot into xwindows with DRI enabled. With out setting it to "PCI" then the screen locks as described above. I have not tried FC4 on this system yet. |
