Also, given there doesn't really seem to be any point to the call to drmSetInterfaceVersion(), as has been pointed out, simply removing it doesn't hurt - although it admittedly irks me as to how/why it can be failing. > As this is getting a bit long/messy I'd suspect that a bugzilla entry > with information/logs might be good.

It's probably getting tough to maintain R200 support at this point, particularly on ancient pre-millennial PCI only systems with buggy* BIOSes! ;-) * The BIOS option to disable the onboard video is present, and the help test lists 3 options, Enabled - 512KB, Enabled - 1MB, Disabled. Only the first two options actually appear on the menu! Even better, the system only (re-)boots on the second attempt, first attempt always hangs post-POST, before attempting to read from boot media! _______________________________________________ dri-devel mailing list dri-devel@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx http://lists.freedesktop.org/mailman/listinfo/dri-devel
