From Bugzilla Helper: User-Agent: Mozilla/4.76 [en] (X11; U; Linux 2.4.1-0.1.9 i686) Xfree has a garbled display when run above 800x600 (any pixel depth) on an SiS 620 chipset. Resolutions of 640x480 and 800x600 work fine. There is something specific to Wolverine, as it works fine when dual-booted to RH7.0 + XFree 4.0.2. In addition if Wolverine is updated to tonight's release of XFree 4.0.3 then the SiS 620 driver works as it should Reproducible: Always Steps to Reproduce: 1.Install wolverine on a system with a SiS 620 display 2.Select res above 800x600 (for example 1024x768x16bpp) 3.startx Actual Results: Display is badly garbled. Huge block cursor, verticle lines, artifacts Expected Results: A clean X display This system is based on the AsusTek MES-N (NLX form factor) MB w/ built in SiS 620 controller using 8192MB memory.
Ok, please expand on "if updated to XFree 4.0.3 it works properly". Are you saying you've installed 4.0.3 yourself from sources or a bindist? If so, and it isn't my RPM's, can you download and try my RPM's of 4.0.3 and see if they work for you? If you are using 4.0.3 from elsewhere and it works, and my package doesn't, it could be a compiler issue, or perhaps some patch is breaking things. Anyway, update this asap so we can try to track it down. ftp://people.redhat.com/mharris Get Mesa 3.4-13 also in addition to XFree86. Thanks, TTYL
Install of the XFree 4.0.3 was done by downloading the binaries from ftp.xfree.org:/pub/XFree86/4.0.3/binaries/Linux-ix86-glibc22 and running the Xinstall.sh script.
I just tried the RPMs from: ftp://people.redhat.com/mharris And they worked. I had saved a backup of /etc/X11 and of /usr/X11R6 prior to doing the 4.0.3 upgrade from ftp.xfree.org. To test the above rpms I first rm -rf /etc/X11 /usr/X11R6 and then restored the tar'd backup. Then I applied the above RPMs. I think that pretty well exercised the fix. This evening I could try a full Wolverine re-install and apply the RPMs if feel that is useful.
fixed in rawhide.
