Description of problem: matroxfb fails to detect GXT135P (PCI Matrox G450). Version-Release number of selected component (if applicable): How reproducible: Try to load the matroxfb module on a PowerPC system with a GXT135P card installed. Steps to Reproduce: 1. 2. 3. Actual results: Expected results: Additional info: I have submitted this bug against gcc4 because I have been told by various people that the root problem is a compiler issue in GCC 4.1.0 and GCC 4.0.x. I inserted some debug messages in the detection loop in matroxfb_probe, and I was able to convince myself that this is the case. As far as I know, this GCC bug *only* affects PowerPC.
Can you give a GCC PR#, or some more details of precisely where the miscompilation is?
Which means it is fixed in rawhide GCC and will show up in FC5 updates testing within a week.
