------- Additional Comments From [EMAIL PROTECTED]  2005-12-30 02:26 -------
I have found out that not the very update to "DRM" version 1.0.1 keeps
"Mesa" from segfaulting. As a matter of fact, what made the difference
for me was loading the "savage.ko" module explicitly. Appending
"modprobe savage" to "rc.sysinit" makes it impossible for me to reproduce
the segmentation faults reported earlier. Before, I loaded the compiled
"savage.ko" built from current "DRI" snapshots and corresponding to
"DRM" version 1.0.1 via "insmod".
However, even loading the original kernel module delivered as part of
kernel 2.6.14-1.1653_FC4 and corresponding to "DRM" version 1.0.0 makes
the reported behaviour disappear.
When you tried out the new "DRM" version, did you load the module
"by hand" via "insmod" or did you copy it to
"/lib/modules/`uname -r`/kernel/drivers/char/drm"?
As pointed out above, even the current module works. At least when you
"modprobe" it in "rc.sysinit" as I did. Setting the status to "RESOLVED
PATCH_ALREADY_AVAILABLE" is hence a bit premature because after updating
the kernel "DRM", one might still encounter the reported problem.
