Well, if you use a closed source driver, there's no way for Ingo to fix it. Period. That's why noone will look at it. The place to report kernel troubles to, when using closed source drivers, is the provider of these kernel drivers. In this case ATI. Regards, Flo
Flo, Please read the thread. This conversation is just silly and a waste of time. Just because an ATI driver is on the machine doesn't mean you don't report a problem with the with the kernel to Ingo. What about when I boot the machine, the kernel has a problem at boot time and I'm not even in X? What about when the ATI driver isn't being loaded and the machine is in text mode? What about when I *do* have the ATI driver loaded and the problem is clearly kernel related? This conversation is just silly and a waste of time. As I stated earlier, I do not report problems to Ingo that are ATI driver related. I did not report this specific problem (machine crashed when exiting X) to him since it was possibly ATI related. I reported other problems. Please read the thread. - Mark
