the Xorg.0.log with EXA enabled

Any other info should I provide?
It works fine with EXA disabled
Comment 2 Eric Anholt 2006-03-15 11:08:16 UTC
Could you provide a real backtrace from gdb?  Also, is your VIA driver from CVS
HEAD, as well? (it doesn't look like it)

backstrace from gdb

When I start X within gdb, my keyboard was locked up. And I'd have to ssh it to
change xorg.conf and restart X to make my keyboard work again. 

The via did come from CVS HEAD. Checkout'ed at almost the same time with the
Xserver.

P.S. The backstrace was taken from gdb launched from ssh session. It's just
screenshot, instead of copy and paste, as I don't know how to do this in ssh
session.

This should be fixed now in Xorg CVS. 
Could you try out and verify?

With EXA, I've found another problem:
It's much less responsible for pop menu, and the mouse lag after poping menu.
To elabrate on it:
1.Start X, running for a while, say 5 minites.
2.Right click on desktop to wait popmenu out.
it would take half a second to popout, then the mouse disappear and show again. 
3. move mouse elsewhere, it lags for a while.

Should I open a new bug?

Submitter reports original problem fixed.  Further issues should be opened in
new bugs.
