So I did some more digging, got my ultra5 running and I can't get it to work with both 2.6.20 and 2.6.22-rc4 :-) This is with xorg-7.2, and they both fail with: xf86MapPciMem: Could not mmap ... which I assume is the error you're seeing. Investigation reveals that X.org is erroneously trying to do PCI mmap ioctl()'s on /sys/bus/pci/devices/*/config files which is very very wrong. Again this happens for me with both 2.6.20 and 2.6.22 Can you just quickly strace "Xorg" startup in the working and non-working case? Just a simple: strace -o x.log Xorg would for both cases be fine. You can email it to me privately, and I'll post here my analysis with the relevant portions quoted so we don't flood the list with strace dumps :-) Thanks a lot! - To unsubscribe from this list: send the line "unsubscribe sparclinux" in the body of a message to majordomo@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxx More majordomo info at http://vger.kernel.org/majordomo-info.html
