Apologies for the delay in response. The card had been in a work PC and was swapped out for something more stable till I had time to revisit this. The issue is no longer present with an up to date Intrepid install (only issue is occasional artefacts around the cursor), so I'll resolve this. **

Hi Marty, Given that it sounds like it's DRI related, maybe a next step would be to experiment with different settings of AGPMode? This is a pretty common issue with the -ati driver. In your /etc/X11/xorg.conf set AGPMode to various values like this: Section Device ... Option AGPMode 2

Hi Bryce xf86EnableIOPorts: failed to set IOPL only occurs if I try 'startx' as a non-root user, so it's probably a permissions issue. I've burnt a LiveCD and am testing it now. The first boot seemed to freeze at the desktop, panels still blank. The mouse cursor could be moved around the screen

Regarding the error message xf86EnableIOPorts: failed to set IOPL, that is probably a very strong clue. This error message occurs in ./hw/xfree86/os-support/linux/lnx_video.c in function xf86EnableIO(), line 566 due to a failure in this call: if (ioperm(0, 1024, 1) || iopl(3)) { ...

I'm having trouble capturing an strace from early enough in the Xorg processes life to see what file descriptor '9' is. Trying to strace the parent gdm process with -ffF causes X to crash immediately. Trying with 'startx' from the console throws the error xf86EnableIOPorts: failed to set IOPL
