           Summary: Solo crashes on ia64 on startup
           Product: DRI
           Version: DRI CVS
          Platform: PC
        OS/Version: Linux
            Status: NEW
          Severity: normal
          Priority: P2
         Component: General
        AssignedTo: [email protected]
        ReportedBy: [EMAIL PROTECTED]


When I use solo on ia64, it sometimes causes an MCA upon startup. That's because
a memset is done on the framebuffer memory during init.

Please refer to this message from Jesse Barnes to know why this is bad :
http://sourceforge.net/mailarchive/forum.php?thread_id=6354420&forum_id=7177

Here is a patch that fixes this by changing the memset into a for() loop doing
memory access one byte at a time :
