Just found out that it also happens using the vesa driver, but using it, I see gdm but when I click some buttons in it, Xorg crashes, also.
Try to add Option "ActiveDevice" "LCD" in the device section of your xorg.conf.
When I use the Option, the screen stays black but I do not get any backtrace in my Xorg.0.log.
The vesa driver loads, but it crashes when I press any key.
(In reply to comment #5) > When I use the Option, the screen stays black but I do not get any backtrace in > my Xorg.0.log. Can you please attach the log with the ActiveDevice option set ? Also could you please try with Option "ForcePanel" (and attach the log with this option too) ?

When I use Option "ForcePanel" I get a picture, but when I type something, X crashes (as with vesa) so probably an Xorg problem (and no openchrome one).

A fixed package should appear in today's Rawhide push. xorg-x11-drv-openchrome-0.2.901-9.fc9 Here's the koji build link : http://koji.fedoraproject.org/koji/buildinfo?buildID=41732 For the record, the evdev crash was fixed by an update to xorg-x11-server (xorg-x11-server-1.4.99.900-0.27.20080303.fc9)
*** Bug 435692 has been marked as a duplicate of this bug. ***
When I use the updated package without having "ForcePanel" in xorg.conf, the same issue still appears.

Created attachment 297188 [details] Xorg.0.log with "ForcePanel" with -9 package Even does not start with ForcePanel using the Koji package.
xorg-x11-drv-openchrome-0.2.901-8.fc9.i386 works using ForcePanel ( I rechecked )
Ok, there was a typo in the upstream commit. New fixed build on it's way : http://koji.fedoraproject.org/koji/taskinfo?taskID=500907
Created attachment 297299 [details] Xorg.0.log with driver version -11
Created attachment 297302 [details] Xorg.0.log with -12
Hopefully, this is the good one... http://koji.fedoraproject.org/koji/taskinfo?taskID=503518 Take care the release is still -12.
Created attachment 297353 [details] Xorg.0.log with -12 2 Does not work, but the log says something new which is goood ;)
ok, no need for ForcePanel anymore, but now we're hitting something new, the VRAM size detection is busted : (--) CHROME(0): Probed amount of VideoRAM = 1024 kB You probably can workaround this with Option "VideoRAM" "65536"
What does happen if you change the amount of VRAM in BIOS ? Does the probed VRAM value move proportionally ? Does it report 512K if you set 32 MB instead of 64 MB ?
> Does it report 512K if you set 32 MB instead of 64 MB ? No it still reports 1024K
> No it still reports 1024K ( I changed "Framebuffer Size" in my BIOS, there aren't any other options like that) Also, using "VideoRAM" "65536" fixes the issue: I have working Xv and do not have to use ForcePanel.
Ok, thx again for all the tests. Latest Koji build should do the trick. Not as clean has I'd like it to be, but we need something for F9 Beta. http://koji.fedoraproject.org/koji/taskinfo?taskID=504580

Works. $ rpm -qa | grep openchrome xorg-x11-drv-openchrome-0.2.901-14.fc9.i386 I am going to attach xorg.conf and Xorg.0.log

Thanks you again, Martin :-) The beers are in the fridge...
