Description Stoian Ivanov 2006-03-25 18:33:18 UTC 
I can't load any suitable driver! I use gentoo's emerge so the build system
should be ok. Gentoo folks confirmed that sis driver's problem is upstraem one so
i'm opening bug report here also:

Comment 1 Alan Coopersmith 2006-07-14 18:35:51 UTC 
Modular Xorg/X11R7 is "xorg" product in bugzilla - moving there.

Log from 'Xorg -configure'

I'm seeing a similar problem, also with gentoo.  If you think the "upstream"
diagnosis that Stoian got is incorrect, I'd be happy to re-open the bug against
gentoo with whatever additional info you can provide.

I've compiled the following drivers, none of which want to load: fbdev mga v4l
vesa vga.  My video card is:

# lspci | grep -i vga
01:00.0 VGA compatible controller: Matrox Graphics, Inc. MGA G550 AGP (rev 01)

Please let me know if you need any additional information.
Comment 3 Michel Dänzer 2006-12-30 04:37:41 UTC 
Is this still an issue with current releases?
Comment 4 Matt McHenry 2006-12-30 12:12:28 UTC 
I was able to get around this problem by upgrading to 7.1, so I'd say no.
Comment 5 Michel Dänzer 2006-12-31 07:02:57 UTC 
Closing, please reopen if you're still seeing this.
