I have installed: x11-drivers/xf86-video-sis-0.10.0 x11-base/xorg-server-1.5.2 Every time I log out from kdm (3.5.10, and 4.1.3) the X server crashes. This is an excerpt of my /var/log/xdm.log output: (EE) SIS(0): Unable to map IO aperture. Invalid argument (22) (EE) SIS(0): ************************************************** (EE) SIS(0): ERROR: (EE) SIS(0): Could not map MMIO area (EE) SIS(0): END OF MESSAGE (EE) SIS(0): ************************************************** (EE) SIS(0): ************************************************** (EE) SIS(0): ERROR: (EE) SIS(0): SiSMapMem() failed (EE) SIS(0): END OF MESSAGE (EE) SIS(0): ************************************************** Fatal server error: AddScreen/ScreenInit failed for driver 0 xdm error (pid 2884): IO Error in XOpenDisplay xdm error (pid 2791): Display :0 cannot be opened _XSERVTransSocketOpenCOTSServer: Unable to open socket for inet6 _XSERVTransOpen: transport open failed for inet6/charm:0 _XSERVTransMakeAllCOTSServerListeners: failed to open listener for inet6 I configured my sistem with an alternative xorg.conf using x11-drivers/xf86-video-vesa, and is not crashing now. For this reason I have the feeling that the problem lies in x11-drivers/xf86-video-sis Thanks
actually i don't have this but if i run glxgears (glxinfo reports all ok, including dri enabled) i have a machine freeze. i need to reset the pc.
I found a related bug report submitted by a gentoo developer in freedesktop bugzilla: https://bugs.freedesktop.org/show_bug.cgi?id=18028
Nothing to be done here, the bug should be fixed upstream. Please ping the maintainers. Thanks
