    x86: fix Xorg crash with xf86MapVidMem error
Comment 2 Tomasz Chmielewski 2008-11-04 08:27:00 UTC
I see the exact same error with 2.6.28-rc3.

X works fine with 2.6.27.x kernels and the same xorg.conf setup.

This is where it breaks on 2.6.28-rc3 kernel:

(...)
(==) SIS(0): Write-combining range (0xf0000000,0x2000000)

Fatal server error:
xf86MapVidMem: Could not mmap framebuffer (0x00000000,0x2000) (Invalid argument)



2.6.27 would show:

(...)
(==) SIS(0): Write-combining range (0xf0000000,0x2000000)
(II) SIS(0): Setting custom mode 1280x1024 on CRT1
(II) SIS(0): Setting custom mode 1280x1024 on CRT2
(II) SIS(0): RENDER acceleration enabled
(...)

Hum... This happens with SiS 651 on kernel-2.6.28 (tested with rc8, rc9 and final). 2.6.27 worked smoothly.
See bug #12372
Comment 4 Thierry Vignaud 2009-01-06 07:04:41 UTC
After reading bug ♯11958, I'm wondering if the fix for a machine hasn't broken another machine...
