This is as far as it gets:
(gdb) run
Starting program: /home/kiza/work/r200-branch/xc/xc/programs/Xserver/XFree86
XFree86 Version 4.2.0 (DRI trunk) / X Window System
(protocol Version 11, revision 0, vendor release 6600)
Release Date: 18 January 2002
If the server is older than 6-12 months, or if your card is
newer than the above date, look for a newer version before
reporting problems. (See http://www.XFree86.Org/)
Build Operating System: Linux 2.4.19-rc1 i686 [ELF]
Markers: (--) probed, (**) from config file, (==) default setting,
(++) from command line, (!!) notice, (II) informational,
(WW) warning, (EE) error, (NI) not implemented, (??) unknown.
(==) Log file: "/var/log/XFree86.0.log", Time: Sun Jul 7 15:09:13 2002
(==) Using config file: "/etc/X11/XF86Config"
And here the system locks up. So it looks like the crash is happening very
early or the complete output didn't make it over the network.
I installed on top of the 4.2.0 release.
Anything else I could try? Otherwise I think I'll just wait a bit until the
driver is a bit older, since the owner of the computer where I'm testing it
isn't exactly happy if I crash the system regularly. ;)
If the DRI module is not loaded in XF86Config X comes up without problems. So
there shouldn't really be a problem?
Bye
