Running "Xorg -configure" produces the following error.

(EE) LoadModule: Module ati_r500 does not have a ati_r500ModuleData data object.

Actual results:


Expected results:


Additional info:

To get around the problem I removed the following file and soft-link from /usr/lib64/xorg/modules/drivers:  ati_r500_drv.so ati_tp_drv.so.  Once those were removed the 'Xorg -configure' ran fine.

Thanks for the bug report.  We have reviewed the information you have provided above, and there is some additional information we require that will be helpful in our diagnosis of this issue.

Please attach your X server config file (/etc/X11/xorg.conf, if available) and X server log file (/var/log/Xorg.*.log) to the bug report as individual uncompressed file attachments using the bugzilla file attachment link below.

We will review this issue again once you've had a chance to attach this information.

Thanks in advance.

This doesn't need X log, it's a straightforward build problem.

Adding to 5.5 radar.
