Was this one successfull? BC this commit is from Mar 13 and is actually not applied in Linus' main branch (IIUC). > 492 cp /boot/config-2.6.29-rc4 .config > 493 make oldconfig > 494 make -j3 all && make install modules_install && make clean mrproper && > init 6 > 495 cd /usr/src/linux-2.6 > 496 git checkout fb5ae64fdde29236e1a15e0366946df7060f41f2 You also didn't copy /boot/config-2.6.29-rc4 .config between the two builds. Which could be a problem precisely because the first tree you compiled was a month newer than the second one. So I think you want to try the following to really confirm whether X starts failing at the commit being blamed: make clean && make distclean && make mrproper && clean this bad boy out ferreal git checkout 1d7b33f77b2d8b0b1ee767e6f8f05cbd9d72cb7c cp /boot/config-2.6.29-rc4 .config make oldconfig && make -j3 all && make install modules_install && init 6 [ confirm that X works ] git checkout fb5ae64fdde29236e1a15e0366946df7060f41f2 cp /boot/config-2.6.29-rc4 .config make oldconfig && make -j3 all && make install modules_install && init 6 [ confirm that X does not work ] -- Configure bugmail: http://bugzilla.kernel.org/userprefs.cgi?tab=email ------- You are receiving this mail because: ------- You are the assignee for the bug, or are watching the assignee. ------------------------------------------------------------------------------ Apps built with the Adobe(R) Flex(R) framework and Flex Builder(TM) are powering Web 2.0 with engaging, cross-platform capabilities.
