Please post your "emerge --info" and tell from which overlay you installed xorg-server-1.6.0 Re-open this bug when you provide that information.

Reassigning to x11 herd.
Xorg.0.log.old should be still available as Xorg rotates the two files on its own. Please attach it. Thanks
I have the same problem with X.org 1.5.3-r5. Will attach Xorg.0.log.old and emerge --info.

The keyboard locks up during this crash, but the kernel runs normally. /dev/dri/card0 has permissions 'crw-rw---- root video' and I am in the video group. Not that it matters, I think, but I start X with ~/.xinitrc. Xorg locks up when I exit awesome wm. Mplayer does not display movie images unless I specify '-vo x11' to disable the Xv extension. xglock works and shows GL screensavers at normal speed. Aside from the lockup bug, and the mplayer bug (which showed up after I updated xorg-server and xf86-video-intel but before I updated mplayer) everything else works fine. My portage overlay has been empty for a while and I've used no other overlays. Also, I compiled Xorg and intel.drv with gcc 4.3.3, not 4.3.3-r1, sorry.
Sorry about bug reporting so late in the night. After some sleep, I re-emerged x11-drivers/xf86-video-intel-2.6.1 and the lockup and Mplayer problems are fixed.

(In reply to comment #12) > So 2.6.3 still doesn't work? No, still broken. Per your email, I tried 2.6.3-r1, and it fixed the Xv/MPlayer problem, but X11 still crashed on exit. I am back on 2.6.1 again. -p

Alright, let's try the hard-yet-effective way : git bisect. Please head over to this comment https://bugs.gentoo.org/show_bug.cgi?id=261531#c5 and try to apply the method. Please don't hesitate to ask if you have any questions. Thanks
I have the same problem. Using x11-drivers/xf86-video-intel-2.6.3-r1 x11-base/xorg-server-1.5.3-r5 and vanilla kernel 2.6.29. It crashes after launching anything using GTK(e.g. firefox) When I switch to kernel 2.6.28 everything works.

Probably another bug. Please file a new one. Thanks
Or actually, even if it's the same bug, please try to do the git bisect. Thanks

Hi, also having same problem with gentoo-sources-2.6.29 Believe is related to kernel mode switching. Xorg dumps this. Backtrace: 0: /usr/bin/X(xorg_backtrace+0x26) [0x4ea426] 1: /usr/bin/X(xf86SigHandler+0x39) [0x4891f9] 2: /lib/libc.so.6 [0x7fe9e5d7a270] 3: /usr/lib/libdrm_intel.so.1 [0x7fe9e49e8fd2] 4: /usr/lib/libdrm_intel.so.1 [0x7fe9e49e8f0c] 5: /usr/lib/libdrm_intel.so.1 [0x7fe9e49e8f0c] 6: /usr/lib/libdrm_intel.so.1 [0x7fe9e49e93fc] 7: /usr/lib64/xorg/modules/drivers//intel_drv.so(i965_prepare_composite+0x2e4) [0x7fe9e4c3fb24] 8: /usr/lib64/xorg/modules/drivers//intel_drv.so [0x7fe9e4c4e6e8] 9: /usr/lib64/xorg/modules/drivers//intel_drv.so(uxa_composite+0x6d0) [0x7fe9e4c4efb0] 10: /usr/bin/X [0x52b638] 11: /usr/bin/X [0x51a949] 12: /usr/bin/X(Dispatch+0x364) [0x44a2e4] 13: /usr/bin/X(main+0x44d) [0x430b2d] 14: /lib/libc.so.6(__libc_start_main+0xe6) [0x7fe9e5d665c6] 15: /usr/bin/X [0x42ff19]
Created attachment 186712 [details] Selected output from GDB of X For my system, during the first run it selects the wrong (non-native resolution) for my screen. The second run does actually select the correct resolution.
Please do the bisect, file a bug in FreeDesktop's bugzilla and paste the url here, that's *all* I can suggest. Thanks
This is fixed upstream, sometime after 2.6.99.902 however. (Happily running 2.6.29 with xf86-video-intel-9999 and xorg-server-1.6.0 from x11 overlay)
Reopening
2.7.1 and newer are now in portage. Closing with the proper resolution. Thanks
