I'm also seeing this seg fault, particularly annoying because I would otherwise run Twinview. I've also tried the Nvidia packages
NVIDIA-Linux-x86-96.43.16-pkg1.run and NVIDIA-Linux-x86-96.43.18-pkg1.run and also tried with the older kernel 2.6.32-21-generic - no joy, except that, with the Nvidia 96.43.18 package, there is no seg fault, but instead, the log file ends with: ... (II) NVIDIA(0): Initialized GART. (II) NVIDIA(0): kernel module enabled successfully (II) NVIDIA(0): Memory mapped (EE) NVIDIA(0): Failed to allocate/map the primary surface! That sort-of sounds like another driver is loaded, but no, there is no other driver loaded. Still, Xorg dmesg has this to say: [ 511.284620] Xorg:3820 conflicting memory types e8000000-e8d80000 write-combining<->uncached-minus [ 511.284626] reserve_memtype failed 0xe8000000-0xe8d80000, track write-combining, req write-combining With 2.6.32-21 and 96.43.16, the log ends like this - with similarity to other combinations, "Segmentation fault at address 0xc": ... (II) NVIDIA(0): Memory mapped (II) NVIDIA(0): Using built-in logo image. Backtrace: 0: /usr/bin/X (xorg_backtrace+0x3b) [0x80e937b] 1: /usr/bin/X (0x8048000+0x61c7d) [0x80a9c7d] 2: (vdso) (__kernel_rt_sigreturn+0x0) [0x7ad410] Segmentation fault at address 0xc Caught signal 11 (Segmentation fault). Server aborting This is on an NV11 [GeForce2 MX/MX 400] dual display, with an AMD Sempron processor. I've also tried this same card and software on an older Athlon machine, but same results. -- Xorg segmentation fault with Nvidia (ver. 96) driver https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/610446 You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list [email protected] https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
