After switching from xorg-6.7.0 to xorg-6.7.99.904 I just get only a black screen and the green LED of my IBM P70 is flashing - ALT+CTRL+Backspace brought me back to the console. With xorg-6.7.0 my Radeon (R100 QD [Radeon 7200] AGP) works errorless. I tested xorg-6.7.99.904 with an old s3virge (86c325 [ViRGE] PCI) and with this adapter it works. (Both graphic-adapters are plugged in at the same time) Maybe this problem is allready solved in the latest DRM-sourcecode which is not included in xorg-6.7.99.904 or I´m wrong? thx for your great work. -------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- The xorg-log gave me those warnings grep -e '(EE)' -e '(WW)' /var/log/xorgRC4-errors-log (WW) warning, (EE) error, (NI) not implemented, (??) unknown.

i've heard that, for some bizarre, reason, changing AGPMode to "2" or "4" fixes this for some people.

(In reply to comment #0) UPDATE: When I plug off the monitor-cable and start xorg an plug it in afterwards it works. It also works if I use another monitor. I noticed that my monitor (P70) is recognized by xorg as 199b
Sounds like the display detection problem. *** This bug has been marked as a duplicate of 1559 ***
