Subject : 2.6.30-rc2 + xorg-intel-2.7.0 + DRM_I915_KMS = corruption Submitter : Alex Bennee <kernel-hacker@bennee.com> Date : 2009-04-19 6:27 References : http://marc.info/?l=linux-kernel&m=124022460014812&w=4 This entry is being used for tracking a regression from 2.6.29. Please don't close it until the problem is fixed in the mainline.
This bug has additional info on the freedesktop buzilla: https://bugs.freedesktop.org/show_bug.cgi?id=21480 The core problem seems to be that when running in KMS X is unable to allocate any memory and from that point everything else is doomed to fail.

Tested on RC7 and I can now boot X and get some sort of display. I have other problems with KMS but I think this bug can be cleared now.
