ia32 builds of Xorg use vm86 for real-mode BIOS calls. 64-bit kernels don't support the vm86 syscall, even with 32-bit userland. The Vesa driver requires the ability to make real-mode BIOS calls. This can never work. I'd suggest just closing this. -- Matthew Garrett | [EMAIL PROTECTED] -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to [EMAIL PROTECTED] with a subject of "unsubscribe". Trouble?
