The log shows it looping errors about RADEONCP. Hi Mark, GinGin64 was an unsupported technology preview of a port of Red Hat Linux 9 to AMD64. It was intended to let AMD64 users be able to sample the current state of the Red Hat Linux OS on the platform. That said, there are likely many bugs that you'll stumble across, and there are no official updates or bugfixes available as it was not an official OS release. Having said that, Red Hat Enterprise Linux 3 is now available which officially supports the AMD64 architecture, and within the next week or so, Fedora Core 1 for AMD64 will be released as well. The XFree86 included in Fedora Core 1 includes a great number of stability, performance, security fixes, and other enhancements over previous OS releases, including the unofficial GinGin64 technology preview. I have fixed the AGP/PCI autodetection in the radeon driver for good in our latest bits. You might wish to upgrade to the new release once it is available, as you'll likely find the system runs much smoother. Hope this helps. -- Mike A.
