https://bugs.freedesktop.org/show_bug.cgi?id=27211 --- Comment #10 from Brent <bzipitidoo@xxxxxxxxxxx> 2010-05-12 15:01:37 PDT --- I built a custom kernel with the source of 2.6.33.3 from kernel.org, not from an Arch Linux package. I patched it with the above mwk patch. That resulted in the error I gave in the previous comment. I am not clear on what all parts of Nouveau are what. The nouveau-drm package seems to be only kernel modules. When I built my custom kernel, I made sure it had its own Nouveau modules. I am not sure what is in libdrm (/usr/lib/libdrm_nouveau.so), but Pacman reports a version number of 2.4.19-2. >From what I read, the version of Nouveau in 2.6.33.3 is too old to work with versions of libdrm from 2.4.18 on. I suppose this means that the Arch Linux people must have patched their version of Linux kernel 2.6.33.3, otherwise it should not have worked with that version of libdrm? Finally, there is the xf86-video-nouveau package, which now is version 0.0.15_git20100314-1. This time, I cloned the git repository of the Nouveau sources with this command: "git clone --depth 1 git://anongit.freedesktop.org/nouveau/linux-2.6", which turned out to be version 2.6.34-rc5 of the Linux kernel. The patch utility refused to apply the mwk patch, as they were already there. So I tried that kernel as is, and this time X segfaulted, dropping the computer back to the 80x50 text screen. Should I build different versions of libdrm, or xf86-video-nouveau? Attached is the Xorg.0.log resulting from this combination of Nouveau kernel 2.6.34-rc5, libdrm 2.4.19-2, and xf86-video-nouveau 0.0.15_git20100314-1. -- Configure bugmail: https://bugs.freedesktop.org/userprefs.cgi?tab=email ------- You are receiving this mail because: ------- You are the assignee for the bug. _______________________________________________ dri-devel mailing list dri-devel@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx http://lists.freedesktop.org/mailman/listinfo/dri-devel
