Xorg.0.log

Hello

Even when X starts and works ok, I get lots of errors like:
mtrr: no MTRR for e0000000,8000000 found
X:332 freeing invalid memtype d8102000-d8112000
X:332 freeing invalid memtype d8112000-d8122000
X:332 freeing invalid memtype d8122000-d8132000
X:332 freeing invalid memtype d8132000-d8142000
...

in my dmesg

I don't know what is wrong :-/

My xorg.conf is trivial, it simply includes:
Section "DRI"
        Group 0
        Mode 0666
EndSection


I attach Xorg.0.log file also

My kernel is 2.6.29-gentoo-r1-first #3 SMP PREEMPT Fri Apr 17 15:39:44 CEST 2009 i686 Intel(R) Pentium(R) 4 CPU 3.06GHz GenuineIntel GNU/Linux

Thanks a lot

This is kernel fault. 2.6.29.1 has some fix but not sure if it's enough for your case. Linus git kernel contains all fixes for that.

Workaround: "nopat" at kernel cmd line.

Well, that gentoo-sources is using 2.6.29.1, then, I will wait for 2.6.29.2 :-)
