--- Comment #18 from aceman <[email protected]> 2011-04-30 05:16:10 PDT --- This happened to me again. I was on kernel 2.6.38.4. I noticed my kernel drivers for my v4l TV capture card were missing. The compile options propably changed since (2.6.36 or .37) and I didn't notice so the modules got compiled out. So I compiled them and loaded into the running kernel. They worked fine. However, when I logged off the KDE session, kdm should have appeared. This didn't happen and I got a black screen again. I think the X server restarts when the session is logged off. So I tried to reboot but when X was starting I got this bug again (black screen). Trying several reboots I determined that kernel 2.6.38.4 doesn't work since now, but 2.6.38.3 works (it does not have the v4l modules). So blaming the v4l kernel modules I removed loading the v4l module from the X server config. And guess what, X server started now fine with 2.6.38.4. The module version is 0.1.1 (according to Xorg.log), compiled for server 1.9.2. So, can this be caused by the removal of v4l API version 1 from the kernel. I read the v4l X module needs to be updated for this change. However, I find it strange that this module affect the main radeon module in any way. I would have thought the X server would hang at loading the v4l module if it doesn't find the proper kernel APIs. But the attached log (comment 4) shows hang much later. -- Configure bugmail: https://bugs.freedesktop.org/userprefs.cgi?tab=email ------- You are receiving this mail because: ------- You are the assignee for the bug. _______________________________________________ xorg-driver-ati mailing list [email protected] http://lists.x.org/mailman/listinfo/xorg-driver-ati
