True that. I suspect Xorg more than the display manager

Oh well.  Thanks for taking the time.  All that "[glesx] Can not create 
colormap surface" stuff isn't an issue then?


I've tried filing a bug with amd in the past and been ignored (there is 
no pseudocolor visual even though the log file says that pseudocolor is 
enabled), but I suppose it couldn't hurt to try again.  It would be a 
coincidence if the fvwm developers were running fglrx, and I'm not at 
all sure that it is an fvwm problem, given that icewm (mis)behaves the 
same way.


I'll report back if I make any progress.

I couldn't navigate the normal shutdown menus with the mouse.


I've just taken a look and compared your logs to mine. To be honest ( now , 
that you've published the logs I can reveal the truth ) I wanted to verify if 
Xorg uses the correct glx module on your system. Which it does, so the 
culprit is somewhere else. Unfortunately I cannot help.
If I were in your shoes I'd file bugs at amd ( I guess they do have a support 
venue ) and also at the developers of the affected applications ( fvwm or 
whatever ).

Re: [elrepo] fglrx error - kernel module version does *not* match driver

2016-03-22 Thread Stephen Isard
Thanks! I rebooted after upgrading the kernel, of course, into level 3, 
but I was thinking that since X wasn't running there would be no need 
after upgrading fglrx (and that with linux, you never need to reboot :-) 
).  But now I have rebooted and X is working, or at least it doesn't 
segfault.  Unfortunately, the fvwm window manager, which was always 
reliable before, is now messed up.  It leaves ghosts behind when windows 
move.  I'll have to try a different window manager to see whether it is 
just fvwm.  If it is, that is a problem for a different list.

2016-03-22 Thread Stephen Isard

Thanks for that impressively quick reply, Wolfy.

I have re-upgraded to 15-12.1 for compatibility with you.
$ yum list installed "*fglrx*"
Installed Packages
fglrx-x11-drv.x86_6415.12-1.el6.elrepo @elrepo
kmod-fglrx.x86_64   15.12-1.el6.elrepo @elrepo

The attempt to start X crashes as before, and Xorg.0.log contains
[ 78452.929] (II) LoadModule: "fglrx"
[ 78452.930] (II) Loading /usr/lib64/xorg/modules/drivers/fglrx_drv.so

[ 78452.949]compiled for 1.4.99.906, module version = 15.30.3
but lower down, just before the segfault, it says
[ 78453.692] (II) fglrx(0): Kernel Module Version Information:
[ 78453.692] (II) fglrx(0): Name: fglrx

[44.090] (II) fglrx(0): Date: Dec 17 2015

below

Does that mean the the Kernel Module Version Information is coming from 
somewhere other than /usr/lib64/xorg/modules/drivers/fglrx_drv.so?  If 
so, where?


Could I be doing something wrong in my (re)installation?  I am just

Hello,

The elrepo fglrx driver has been working through successive updates of

fglrx-x11-drv.x86_64 and kmod-fglrx.x86_64 to 15.12-1.el6.elrepo.
X then failed to start, so I downgraded to 15.11-1.el6.elrepo, but that

[ 72531.964] (II) fglrx(0): Date: Sep  8 2015
[ 72531.964] (II) fglrx(0): Desc: AMD FireGL DRM kernel module
[ 72531.964] (WW) fglrx(0): Kernel Module version does *not* match 
driver.


And then it segfaults.

I am puzzled by that 15.20.3 given the version of kmod-fglrx, but I have 
tried reinstalling and it stays the same.


$ rpm -ql kmod-fglrx
/etc/depmod.d/kmod-fglrx.conf
/lib/modules/2.6.32-573.el6.x86_64
/lib/modules/2.6.32-573.el6.x86_64/extra

/usr/share/doc/kmod-fglrx-15.11
/usr/share/doc/kmod-fglrx-15.11/LICENSE.TXT

$ls -l /lib/modules/2.6.32-573.el6.x86_64/extra/fglrx/fglrx.ko

Any ideas?
