Does this work with 4.0.2-0.11 or later?
OK, looks like it is fixed. I installed XFree86-4.0.2-11.4.0 and the messages stopped. I am still getting an occational message "drm:-r128_init] *ERROR* Cannot initialize agpgart module." but otherwise it lloks good. If acceptable , close this as appropriate.
Oops ... I misspoke. I had XFree86 4.0.2-11 installed and the error was not occuring. I just installed 4.0.2-11.4.0 and the origianl error message is back ("...wait for fifo").
Try the latest release please - XFree86-4.0.2-12.1 out located at: ftp://people.redhat.com/mharris/xfree86 Also, make sure you have Mesa-3.4-10 installed, and you're using the latest rawhide kernel. You MUST use the latest kernel to get the r128 kernel fix. If that doesn't work, please submit new log attachments, and configs as well, and reopen the bug.
XFree86 4.0.2-12.1 and Mesa 3.4-10 now installed. Problem is still there

Oops. I missed the fact that I need to upgrade the kernel too. Unfortunately, rawhide on the ftp beta site is missing the kernel-smp for i686. Since I do not feel like rebuilding the kernel rpm right now, I will give the i586 package a try.
OK, I am running kernel-smp-242-0.1.25 (i586 rather than my usual i686) and modutils-2.4.2-5. Problem is still there. I will attach the log and the/etc/X11/XF86Config-4 files. Anything else?

Fixed in 4.0.2a-1 in Rawhide
OK, I installed XFree86-4.0.2a-1 from the mharris directory on people.redhat.com (and MEsa 3.4-12 from rawhide on the beta ftp). Problem not fixed unfortunately. I am still getting the messages in the log. As before, this is running kernel-smp-2.4.2-0.1.25. The XF86Config-4 has not changed. I will attach the log. Gene

Boy, this one is really puzzling.. Can you run the following commands and include file attachments of each of their outputs please? rpm -qa | sort > installed-packages.txt uname -a lspci -vn lspci -v This _might_ be an smp specific issue.
I don't believe it is smp related. I previously ran it with my up kernel and still got the messages (the MB is still smp naturally). I just ran it again and still messages. I did not run it long be did get the messages. I notice that lots of these messages occur in the middle of the night when xscreensaver is running. Attachments follow.

Ok, thanks for all the info. My 4.0.3-1 release contains a patch for this bug now. Please try it out as it appears to solve the problem during my testing. XFree86-4.0.3-1 and Mesa-3.4-13 at ftp://people.redhat.com/mharris

I, see bug 28987, see this messages with Athlon-750 with Rage 128 *PF*. Reducing color depth tp 16bpp didn't solve the problem, but messages are more rare: on X start-up, and once each time I run 3d screensaver. The do appear harmless though. I'll attack my logs later today.

This is still occuring on 7.1 Gold. Do you still need additional information?

Ok, it looks like our kernel was missing an additional patch that caused several people to still experience this. It is added into our current kernel builds and will be released as an errata sometime in the near future.
Yes, kernel 2.4.3-5.i686 from rawhide fixed that for me.
