Description Daniel Malmgren 2006-11-02 23:44:11 UTC
I have a laptop with Intel 945-GM chipset and GMA950, running xorg 7.1 and i810
driver. This works perfectly fine when started with a non-xen kernel. However
when I try to start X in a Xen environment it's very unstable, most often it
crashes within seconds after being started, and freezes entire computer. This
does not happen if I use vesa driver instead of i810, so it seems to have
something with the driver to do.

I'm running Fedora devel, and this has also been reported in Fedora bz at
https://bugzilla.redhat.com/bugzilla/show_bug.cgi?id=207432 and I'm not quite
sure, but it could be related to https://bugzilla.novell.com/show_bug.cgi?id=177465

Is there any good way for me to provide any more debugging informaiton? Since
the system freezes rock solid I have to cold reboot every time. I've got no
serial port and I havent succeeded in getting netconsole running.

Sorry about the phenomenal bug spam, guys.  Adding xorg-team@ to the QA contact so bugs don't get lost in future.
Comment 2 Alan Hourihane 2007-05-11 02:20:14 UTC
Closing. Please try the new 2.0 driver and re-open if there's still problems.
Comment 3 Adam Jackson 2008-02-24 18:22:24 UTC
Mass reopen.  The "LATER" resolution is lame, I'm deleting it.  Consider LATER to have arrived.
Comment 4 Gordon Jin 2008-02-25 19:09:08 UTC
Closing. Please try the new 2.x driver and file a new bug if there're still problems.
