Hi, I noticed a regression in the next-20140903 kernel that was not present in next-20140902. When Xorg starts up, the display is garbled (or contains old image bits) and I see a page fault in the kernel log. X is not usable in this state - there is no pointer and gdm doesn't come up. It works fine after Xorg (gdm3) is restarted. The fault is still present in next-20140918.

Is there any other information I can provide to help track this down? paranoia or spam level logging, for example? _______________________________________________ dri-devel mailing list dri-devel@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx http://lists.freedesktop.org/mailman/listinfo/dri-devel
