Hello I've got troubles running XFree86-4.7.0 on a IBM Thinkpad laptop (ATI Rage Mobility P/M video adapter). Launching XFree86 results in blank screen or meaningless garabge (if "nolinear" is not set). It seems that it corrupts video memory (all fonts are gone until cold reboot, hot reboot has no effect) I've tried several different "Chipset" settings with the same result. Downgrading to XFree86-4.6.0 has no result. Here goes a piece of log file (Chipset "mach64")... ... (II) Primary Device is: PCI 01:00:0 (II) ATI: Candidate "Device" section "ATI Rage Mobility P/M". (II) ATI: Unshared VGA not probed in domain 0 due to a potential hard-failed master abort. (II) ATI: Unshared 8514/A not probed in domain 0 due to a potential hard-failed master abort. (II) ATI: Shared PCI/AGP Mach64 in slot 1:0:0 detected. (WW) ATI: VGA not detected on this adapter. (II) ATI: Shared PCI/AGP Mach64 in slot 1:0:0 assigned to active "Device" section "ATI Rage Mobility P/M". ... And another one (Chipset "ati") ... (II) Primary Device is: PCI 01:00:0 (II) ATI: Candidate "Device" section "ATI Rage Mobility P/M". (II) ATI: Unshared 8514/A not probed in domain 0 due to a potential hard-failed master abort. (WW) ATI: Sparse I/O base 0x02EC not probed in domain 0. (II) ATI: Unshared Mach64 at I/O base 0x02EC not probed in domain 0 due to I/O conflict. (II) ATI: Unshared Mach64 at I/O base 0x01CC not probed in domain 0 due to a potential master abort. (II) ATI: Unshared Mach64 at I/O base 0x01C8 not probed in domain 0 due to a potential master abort. (II) ATI: Shared PCI/AGP Mach64 in slot 1:0:0 detected. (WW) ATI: VGA not detected on this adapter. (II) UnloadModule: "ati" (II) Unloading /usr/X11R6/lib/modules/drivers/ati_drv.o (EE) No devices detected. ... Full logs are included in attachment. I had no problems with antique version of XFree86 (4.3.0, supplied with RedHat 9 distribution). tinyX, shipped with 4.7.0, works OK, but I haven't run extensive tests yet. My current system is a "home-made" Linux, based on linux-2.6.23.8, glibc-2.7 and gcc-4.2.2. Any information on the subject would be deeply appreciated.
