Description Jan Pobrislo 2007-05-03 18:36:45 UTC
When I run xorg with s3 driver, screen goes blank (monitor turns off) and doesn't turn on until reboot. I can switch to console and reboot computer from there (writing blind).
When I run xorg with vesa driver it segfaults with following backtrace:

Fatal server error:
Caught signal 11.  Server aborting

Old debian system with xfree works fine (with identical config)

I have tried following settings with no effect:
Option     "noaccel"
Option     "DmaMode" "NONE"
Option     "BusType" "PCI"
Forcing 16 bit depth instead 24 bit

Reproducible: Always

I'm now using xorg-server 1.2.0.0 with an s3 trio in a xinerama setup and works.
Comment 7 Jan Pobrislo 2007-05-10 22:22:40 UTC
also applies to x11-base/xorg-server-1.1.1-r4

version of drivers:
x11-drivers/xf86-video-vesa-1.2.1
x11-drivers/xf86-video-s3-0.4.1

I'm going to try other versions if there are any
Comment 8 Alan Hourihane 2007-09-19 19:29:55 UTC
What about upgrading to Xorg 1.3.0 ? Does that help ?
Comment 9 cruzki 2007-09-20 07:55:42 UTC
My s3trio is dead, so I can't proof :( I think this bug need to be closed. 

Now I run a s3virge with xorg-server-1.4 and work perfectly even with EXA enable ;) The only problem I have is the mouse problem with xinerama enable, but this is a know bug of xorg-server.

I won't be in reach of that machine till the end of month. I will try upgrading Xorg when I get to it, but personally I think the card is simply broken.

Well, if you can reproduce with 1.3.0 or newer, please reopen.
