Description of problem: After rebooting with kernel-2.6.3-1.100 both rhgb started and run level 5 X servers segfault. Everything works fine with kernel-2.6.3-1.97. I'll attach XFree86.0.log, below is the output from messages: Feb 24 20:30:35 d100 gdm[2268]: gdm_slave_xioerror_handler: Fatal X error - Restarting :0 Feb 24 20:30:37 d100 gdm[2272]: gdm_slave_xioerror_handler: Fatal X error - Restarting :0 Feb 24 20:30:43 d100 gdm[2276]: gdm_slave_xioerror_handler: Fatal X error - Restarting :0 Feb 24 20:30:48 d100 gdm[2280]: gdm_slave_xioerror_handler: Fatal X error - Restarting :0 Feb 24 20:30:48 d100 gdm[2213]: deal_with_x_crashes: Running the XKeepsCrashing script Version-Release number of selected component (if applicable): XFree86-4.3.0-59 kernel-2.6.3-1.100 How reproducible: Always. Steps to Reproduce: 1. reboot with 2.6.3-1.100 2. wait for rhgb or run level 5 X to start 3.
Created attachment 98003 [details] XFree86.0.log, doesn't seem to much interesting related to the segfaults
This seems rather significant to me actually: (EE) RADEON(0): shmat() call retruned errno 1013 So does: (WW) RADEON(0): Video BIOS not detected in PCI space! (WW) RADEON(0): Attempting to read Video BIOS from legacy ISA space!
Whoops, I skimmed it for The Big Error.. that EE was so suddle ;-) My bad. Related, Warren Togami reported the same with 2.6.3-1.99 in his blog. Maybe related, 2.6.3-1.100 lost the USB controllers as well. I noticed it when kudzu asked if I really wanted to remove them.
Confirm ... have the same problem on Radeon 9200 (R200) with pciid 1106:3059
(I realize that the NVIDEA drivers taint the kernel, but this might be related.) The NVIDIA-Linux-x86-1.0-5336-pkg1 drivers compiled OK with 1.97, but fail to compile with 1.100. The error message was: "Shared memory test failed (Invalid argument): please check that your kernel has CONFIG_SYSVIPC enabled."
I have a problem that looks to be related. mplayer dies with the error: X11 error: BadAccess (attempt to access private resource denied) From an strace: 2578 shmget(IPC_PRIVATE, 230400, IPC_CREAT|0777) = 1081356 2578 shmat(1081356, 0, 0) = -1 EINVAL (Invalid argument) My rawhide is coompletely up to date, except for openssl-devel which has a dependency issue.
I am using XFree86 -59 with 2.6.3 arjanv kernel (compiled myself) with no problems (Radeon 7200). There were some new radeonfb upgrades on top of 2.6.3. I would think that this is more of a kernel problem.

I have the exact problem since I've upgraded kernels and I have a Radeon M7-C; perhaps there is some kind of conflict between this particular kernel and the Radeon drivers.
This seems to be fixed for me on 2.6.3-1.106. Try it for yourself when it hits rawhide.

Works with 2.6.3-1.106.
NVIDIA 5336 drivers on 1.106 seem OK.
should be fixed now.
How about drivers for the netgear WG511 wireless card that uses prism duette or gt chip set. What is it's status since I can only get my old 802.11 card to work with core 2
Dave) Yep, I've gotten numerous confirmations that the new kernel fixes the shmat bug. Thanks.
