I can't tell from that log fragment.  Signal 4 usually means that an
unresolved function was called.  Can you build a static version of the
X server, and try with that?

I830DetectDisplayDevice() is called right after the function that printed
the gamma message, so I guess that's where it's crashing.  I don't see
any obvious place that this might be happening.

As the message says above, send the log from /var/log/XFree86.0.log

[Xpert]i830 problems

2002-10-25 Thread Dave Whittaker
I've downloaded the latest version from CVS and am trying to get i830 support 
up and running.  Everything will compile and install ok, including the new 
kernel driver, but when I startx I get this at the end of the log:

My machine is a Dell C400 laptop with bios revision A06, and I am running 
RedHat 7.3.

Can anybody tell me what's going on here and how I can fix it?
