I've been digging into it and discovered (via strace) that Xorg is terminating its brute force pci scan of /proc/bus/pci/... a bit before encountering my video device, which is the last device in the pci space. scanpci and lspci show my video, but "Xorg -scanpci" doesn't show the device. I've submitted is as Bugzilla bug 214050 at https://bugzilla.redhat.com/bugzilla/show_bug.cgi?id=214050 Regards -- Charlie -- fedora-list mailing list fedora-list@xxxxxxxxxx To unsubscribe: https://www.redhat.com/mailman/listinfo/fedora-list
