Description Kurt 2006-05-07 05:22:59 UTC
X is built with aiglx. I can't start X whenever :

Option     "AccelMethod"        	"exa"

is enabled

If this is commented out X starts just fine but spends like 40% of its cpu time
in Xaa according to oprofile.

This looks like a duplicate of bug #6818.

I'm taking the bug, though the problem is probably in core Exa.
I probably won't have time to track it down before the 7.1 release.
