Hello, I have been trying to enable kernel mode-setting on my EeePC 901 (Intel 945GME), with the X server version 1.5.3 and a very recent Intel video driver. Unfortunately, there have been problems: - if launched by xdm (wdm, to be precise), the login screen looks normal but the session freezes right after logging in, showing a segmentation fault in the X log; - if launched by xinit, the resulting xterm window has got its fonts hopelessly garbled and the session freezes when I try to exit X, showing a segmentation fault in the X log.
Attached you will find X logs for both cases. The freeze affects the display and the input devices, then again the system itself remains active and responds to e.g. remote login attempts or pre-set shutdown instructions. Before the freeze I can normally switch back and forth between text consoles and the X session. Mode-setting itself appears to work fine, as the system correctly enables inteldrmfb and switches to the display's native resolution at boot time, as well as switches between text consoles and X much faster than without it. As the logs show, I obtained them while running a 2.6.29 kernel. Since then I have tried the same with 2.6.30, with exactly the same results. If you need any more information, please let me know! Best regards, -- MS
