Hi all. There's a patch that's attached to bugzilla bug 18160 that
fixes the problem specified in that bug; now that it prevents xorg from
hanging the machine, other bugs have become visible, but the patch attached
to
comment 30 seems to solve the problem. How do we go about getting this
applied to libpciaccess?
https://bugs.freedesktop.org/show_bug.cgi?id=18160
:)
If I've understood correctly, the patch at comment 30 mainly ensures
that the device has been pci_device_enable()'ed when the ROM is about
to be read. That looks like something the X server should care about
(in fact it already does, see xserver commit
ea4ec9e9983e25d94a3edf8a77ed2ad1db193284).
Great! I think the patch fixes some other things, but I didn't write
the patch, so I'm not going to worry too much about them.
The patch, while it prevents my machine from locking up with two video
cards (and I presume the other xserver commit does the same), didn't actually
make either of them work; the only way I was able to obtain a working config
was to comment out one of the screens. That's why I believe there's still
work to be done on it. I had two screens working with a pre-libpciaccess
version of xorg, but now they don't work.
Thanks,
