Created attachment 16684 [details] lspci output If I specify the option Option "Rotate" "left" in the monitor section of my secondary monitor in xorg.conf, X crashes with a segfault while starting. Without this option, everything works fine, even if I set the rotation manually via xrandr. I'll attach my configuration, a log, and a backtrace.

I see you used the xserver tip. Did you also use tip of xf86-video-intel? In current 2D driver tip, the default acceleration method is "EXA" and "XAA" is dead. So please use "EXA" instead of "XAA". Can you give a try?
Using EXA and other same config with you, We can start X success. With XAA, X can not be up. So this is XAA bug.
btw,I find that if seting Virtual 2048 2048,X cannot start with xaa normally,and if seting Virtual 2560 1280 as your conf, X can start successfully with xaa.
Bas, we've moved from xaa to exa, and the support to xaa has gone to end. Actually xaa will be removed soon. So please try exa. If you still have problem with exa, please file a new bug. Thanks.
Also with EXA instead of XAA, I can still reproduce this bug. I also tried the latest git intel driver (with both XAA and EXA), but the bug is still there, too
This looks very similar to bug#15509, which has been fixed in the latest code. Could you check if your source code has included that patch? If (unlucky) yes, please update xorg.conf and Xorg.0.log with current EXA. Please add option "ModeDebug" "yes" in the Device section of xorg.conf to dump more register information into Xorg log.
Hmm, for some reason the patch for bug#15509 doesn't seem incldued in my git tree. I cloned the tree from git://anongit.freedesktop.org/git/xorg/driver/xf86-video-intel Maybe that's not the right uri? Or perhaps the fix was committed to a different branch?
I think this is dup with 15509. Zhenyu to check why we can't find the patch in git. *** This bug has been marked as a duplicate of bug 15509 ***
So the patch is 79fde3... in master branch. It's a little different than the attached patch on bug#15509. It's supposed to be included in 2.3.*. Could you check if it's included in your distro? commit 79fde3ad7a949fb7f0dc9907cb6eea6ca9a910ae Author: Zhenyu Wang <zhenyu.z.wang@intel.com> Date: Sat Apr 19 08:54:38 2008 +0800 Check pitch for EXA operation 2D pitch limit applys to all chips. Pre-965 chip has 8KB pitch limit for 3D. 965 supports max pitch by current exa (128KB). (cherry picked from commit 8187a5a16f8bd8f0ba5e7f5357f355928b3b8f07)
