Xorg.log

Hi,

I'm running a 2.6.28-rc7 kernel and would like to use HIGHMEM64G because i got 4 GB of Ram.

CONFIG_HIGHMEM4G xorg runs fine, but if i change this to CONFIG_HIGHMEM64G it just hangs when starting. It doesnt respond to any key interaction or ctrl+c, but to actions from the touchpad. (I see a cross on the display and can move it arround).

I'll add some files as attachment, hopefully enough.

btw:
xserver-xorg-input-synaptics         0.15.0+git20080820-1
xserver-xorg-video-intel             2:2.5.1-1

I tried gdb now, if it would give some usable output, but i just get this:

it didn't do anything, because the whole system crashed...
