Description of problem:

Hi,

An attempt to use second X server (via the "Switch user" Gnome or KDE
menu or otherwise) locks console on my system.  Usually I can revive
the keyboard by ssh-ing into the machine and issuing "chvt <N>".  This
is what I did to demonstrate the problem in a simple setup:

Boot into runlevel 3.

Login (non-root) onto tty2 and tty3

[tty2] $ xinit /usr/bin/xterm -- /usr/bin/X :2

Works as expected.  Switch to tty3.

[tty3] $ xiint /usr/bin/xterm -- /usr/bin/X :3

OK, got an xterm on :3

An attempt to switch to the server on :2 gives black screen.
Can't switch to any tty via keyboard now.  Connected 
to the system via ssh, did "chvt 1" as root.  The console is 
back to life.  On tty3, there is the following error message:

X: intel_bufmgr_fake.c:1372: intel_bufmgr_fake_evict_all: Assertion
`((&bufmgr_fake->fenced)->next == (&bufmgr_fake->fenced))' failed.
xterm: fatal IO error 11 .... on X server ":3.0"
xinit: connection to X server lost.

I am attaching a photo of the error screen, log files of the two X
servers, and output of "lspci -vvv".  The machine is a Lenovo x200s
laptop with Intel GMA 4500MHD.  Fedora 10 with current updates,
kernel-2.6.27.19-170.2.35.fc10.x86_64
No xorg.conf


Version-Release number of selected component (if applicable):
xorg-x11-drv-i810-2.5.0-4.fc10.x86_64

How reproducible:  always

Steps to Reproduce: start 2 X servers
  
Actual results: server crash, console locked

Expected results: both X servers working

Comment 4 Andrei Gaponenko 2009-04-20 20:57:11 UTC
This problem is fixed in 

Fedora-11-Snap1-x86_64-Live-KDE

I could start up, and switch between, two X servers.
Closing this bug.
