Ok, so for the 460EX, I am not surprised things aren't working with KMS & DRI2... the 460 is not cache coherent, and this is not handled by TTM as far as I can tell. The second case with no firmware is a bit more surprising, looks like something bad happened on the PCI express bus or the kernel tried to access something that the card rejected (target abort or PCIe equivalent most likely), thus triggering a PLB error . That could be investigated a bit more. Note that you say this is smoe kind of "SAM460EX" card... but it claims to be a Canyonlands in the device-tree... is that expected or do we have yet another case of a vendor claiming to be the eval board they based their design upon and generally screwing up in a major way ? IE. does it indeed work with an -identical- device-tree to a canyonland and no patches added to the machine support at all ?
