kernel oops that happens when a users attempts to logout
I am having the same problem. When users logout X fails to restart it self. It looks like the driver is causing a kernel oops. I have attached a copy of the oops from the syslog. FWIW, I've switched to the following configuration to work around the problem: [...] # Screen 0 "Screen0" 0 0 Screen 0 "Screen1" 0 0 [...] Section "Device" # no known options Identifier "Vesa" Driver "vesa" VendorName "VESA driver (generic)" BoardName "VESA driver (generic)" #BusID EndSection Section "Screen" Identifier "Screen1" Device "Vesa" Monitor "Monitor0" DefaultDepth 16 Subsection "Display" Depth 16 Modes "1152x864" "1024x768" "800x600" "640x480" EndSubsection EndSection The only problem that I have found with this fix is that i'm limited to a resolution of 800x600 FWIW, I get the same kernel oops, I just had missed it because I was looking for something in /var/log/messages at about the time X restarted. D'oh. Anyway, this was the hint I needed to figure the problem probably had to do with dri. In fact, commenting out the `Load "dri"' fixed it for now. Arjan, is this the problem which was just fixed in i8x0 DRM? If so, please let me know, as I think I can close this then, and dupe many other bug reports against it. TIA yup the kernel oops is the bug fixed... *** This bug has been marked as a duplicate of 67978 *** |
