I got chipset 6630 (SiS302LV) and have the same problem. X shows a black screen with pointer then crashes and retries continuosly.
I tried patching sis driver with nihui fix and now it manage to show lightdm login interface before crashing and looping. Looks like a little improvement, but I guess it need more fixing. I also wonder if it uses sis300_accel.c instead of sis310_accel.c and maybe I need to patch EXA section in that file too. They are kinda different tho, don't know even where to start. -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/1066464 Title: SiS driver crashes Xserver with EXA acceleration To manage notifications about this bug go to: https://bugs.launchpad.net/xserver-xorg-video-sis/+bug/1066464/+subscriptions -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
