  I'm pretty sure they are.  If your issue is still present in 2.6.35
  (available in experimental), please file a bug against product=DRI,
  component=DRM/intel at http://bugs.freedesktop.org/ and let us know the
  bug number so we can track it.
 
 I am currently running kernel version 2.6.35 and everything works fine 
 without the memory 
 limitation set by the kernel parameter. So the remedy for my issues are on 
 the path to 
 2.6.35. How can I narrow down the patches curing this problem?

There have been quite a few DRM changes since then, does this still occur
with the current 2.6.32-29 kernel?

Cheers,
Moritz

Oh, you are right, I forgot to check if the changes cure my problem. And indeed 
they do! 
:) I have just removed the mem-parameter from my grub-configuration, et voila, 
it works! 
Thank you very much for your efforts!

Best regards,

Matthias

Bug#592290: [linux-source-2.6.32] X.org does not work with Intel driver and 4GB RAM

2010-08-08 Thread Matthias Breier
Package: linux-source-2.6.32
Version: 2.6.32-18
Severity: serious

--- Please enter the report below this line. ---

Hello everyone,

I've just realized that I still use the kernel parameter mem=3500M  at boot 
time. With 
this configuration everything works fine (besides the missing 500MB of RAM). 
When I remove 
this parameter X.org fails to work properly. I have only a very distorted 
log-in screen 
and cannot switch to any other console via ctrl+alt+F1. Since Bug #558237 was 
reported as 
resolved I hoped that this would resolve my issues as well, but it does not.
I'm not sure how to proceed in my case. How can I test if the changes mentioned 
in the 
upstream bug report ( http://bugs.freedesktop.org/show_bug.cgi?id=25510 ) have 
reached the 
Squeeze's current kernel version?

Best regards,

Matthias
