Looks like Nouveau still parties like it's 1999. I don't think more recent drivers do mode setting this early. However, it's easy enough to handle this case by simply skipping the RRCrtcIsLeased and RROutputIsLeased calls when the respective DIX objects haven't been created yet. Here's a patch which simply wraps those functions in xf86 code that checks for NULL pointers before calling the DIX code. Created attachment 139958 [details] [review] xfree86: Wrap RRCrtcIsLeased and RROutputIsLeased to check for DIX structures Hello Keith, I suffer from the same problem - crash on startup. The backtrace is identical (attaching). The circumstances are the same - I have four monitors with two nvidia cards using nouveau driver. I am using xinerama. After applying your patch the backtrace is different: double free or corruption (!prev) (EE) (EE) Backtrace: (EE) 0: /usr/lib/xorg/Xorg (xorg_backtrace+0x4a) [0x5637ad9347da] (EE) 1: /usr/lib/xorg/Xorg (0x5637ad780000+0x1b8489) [0x5637ad938489] (EE) 2: /lib/x86_64-linux-gnu/libpthread.so.0 (0x7efc039f4000+0x11f50) [0x7efc03a05f50] (EE) 3: /lib/x86_64-linux-gnu/libc.so.6 (gsignal+0x10b) [0x7efc0366ee7b] (EE) 4: /lib/x86_64-linux-gnu/libc.so.6 (abort+0x151) [0x7efc03670231] (EE) 5: /lib/x86_64-linux-gnu/libc.so.6 (0x7efc0363a000+0x777b7) [0x7efc036b17b7] (EE) 6: /lib/x86_64-linux-gnu/libc.so.6 (0x7efc0363a000+0x7dd5a) [0x7efc036b7d5a] (EE) 7: /lib/x86_64-linux-gnu/libc.so.6 (0x7efc0363a000+0x7f81c) [0x7efc036b981c] (EE) 8: /usr/lib/xorg/Xorg (PanoramiXCreateConnectionBlock+0x20a) [0x5637ad87f98a] (EE) 9: /usr/lib/xorg/Xorg (0x5637ad780000+0x609e1) [0x5637ad7e09e1] (EE) 10: /lib/x86_64-linux-gnu/libc.so.6 (__libc_start_main+0xe7) [0x7efc0365ba87] (EE) 11: /usr/lib/xorg/Xorg (_start+0x2a) [0x5637ad7ca6ca] Attaching a full log. regards, manio Created attachment 140621 [details]

Created attachment 139910 [details] gdb.log Hi! I tried Nouveau (xorg-dri-nouveau-18.1.0 from mesa 18.1.0 and xorg-drv-nouveau-1.0.15) with the latest xorg-1.20 and dual monitors. With single screen and xinerama it works fine, with dual screens (w/o xinerama) it segfaults, see log below. I want to use separate X screens, since monitors have sufficiently different DPI and color temp and Xinerama doesn't allow different DPI on different monitors. Kernel in use is 4.6.13 with nouveau built as module.
