Description SPENEN 2004-09-02 14:10:18 UTC
It gave no error what so ever, but the log file ended when the fglrx drive
almost was loaded. I fixed the problem by commenting these lines:

Section "Device"
# === TV-out Management ===
#     Option "NoTV"                       "yes"

Same thing here on a Radeon 9800 Pro, although when disabling DRI, it seems to
work fine.
Comment 2 Cristian Peraferrer 2004-09-07 17:02:01 UTC
I was searching what was happening with my X. And I confirm it, that was caused
by the glx module in my xorg.conf.

I'm using a ATI Radeon 9600. Running without DRI, I mean, ati-drivers.
Comment 3 Ryan Sweeney 2004-09-10 09:24:59 UTC
I'm having what I assume is the same problem, but I think I get further.
X does start for me.  Every 2D app I have tried to run works fine (KDE, 
Firefox, xterm, Konqueror).  Once I try to run something that uses GL (tried 
glxgears, fglrxinfo, & GL screensavers), it freezes and shows signal 11 in the 
Xorg.0.log.

If I disable dri (still using fglrx ATI driver) or switch to the Xorg radeon 
driver, it works fine.

I'm using kernel 2.8.1, ATI driver 3.11.1 for XFree 4.3.0, and Xorg 6.8.0-1 
(6.7.0-1 works fine..I have even switched back and forth to make sure it wasn't 
anything else).

I have the exact same problem. Same driver, same Xorg and same kernel.
Comment 5 Cristian Peraferrer 2004-09-11 05:08:16 UTC
I've compiled my kernel (a 2.6.8.1 patched to 2.6.9-rc1-mm1) with DRI and ATI
chipset support. When I tried to enable the DRI module in my xorg.conf, the X
starts, and I can run some apps, but when I try to run any determined dialog or
an app (I figure that they use GL or DRI), the X keep frozen and the mouse and
the keyboard too, and I can't do anything. I tried to access by ssh, and
"restart" the X, I mean, run xinit command through an ssh terminal. Then, I can
take again the control of the machine.
Comment 6 Knowles 2004-09-12 06:14:38 UTC
I was able to get X to start working with my ATI Radeon 9600 (which was
experiencing the same problems as the 9800's) by only commenting out the following:
# === Pseudo Color Visuals (8-bit visuals) ===
# Option "PseudoColorVisuals" "off"
How this helps out some.
Comment 7 Giuseppe Rota 2004-11-11 13:53:24 UTC
My conf is:
radeon 9500pro
vanilla kernel 2.6.9
Xorg 6.8.1 (I also tried 6.8.0)
fglrx 3.14.6 (I also tried 3.14.1)
and every time I try to run something that uses GL (with dri enabled) X crashes
with signal 11.
As you know, has it been reported any bug with Xorg 6.7.*?
