Bug 62023 – X crashes with lots of relocation errors in libbitmap.a

• Status: RESOLVED DUPLICATE of bug 43177
• Product: Gentoo Linux

[Description Tomek 2004-08-28 03:42:40 UTC]

Running startx from x.org package crashes with relocation errors type 3,4,9 and 10 in module libbitmap.a. (this happens to me on pentium-mmx..)

Reproducible: Always
Steps to Reproduce:
1. emerge xorg-x11   (there is the same problem with xfree)
2. xorgconfig        ("X -configure" or "xorgcfg" don't work in the same way)
3. startx

Actual Results:  
X crashes.
Details in Attachment.

Expected Results:  
X server started properly.

Created attachment 38376 [details]
xorg.0.log

[Comment 2 Donnie Berkholz (RETIRED) 2004-08-28 12:16:20 UTC]

Drop pie from USE and recompile.

[Comment 3 Tomek 2004-08-29 09:49:11 UTC]

Nothing has changed except the duration of compilation.

[Comment 4 Tomek 2004-08-30 23:08:25 UTC]

What is funny is that once I tried to compile X'org with "-fno-stack-protector" as I thought that it might change sth and compilation ended up with an error of unknown flag "pentium-mmx" (in mcpu or march - don't know..)

[Comment 5 Seemant Kulleen (RETIRED) 2004-09-04 10:31:00 UTC]

tomek, I believe this issue is fixed in 99.90* releases of xorg-x11.  Are you willing to try them?  904 is the newest in portage (and package.masK)

[Comment 6 Tomek 2004-09-06 23:10:45 UTC]

Unfortunately, with or without "pie" in USE flags I have the same error after compiling 99.904...

[Comment 7 Tomek 2004-09-17 01:41:50 UTC]

Problem unchanged with 6.8.0 ebuild from 09 Sep 2004.
