Summary: Display is incorrectly using the VESA driver under X.
Product: Fedora Core
Version: fc4
Platform: i386
OS/Version: Linux
Status: NEW
Severity: high
Priority: normal
Component: system-config-display
AssignedTo: sandmann@xxxxxxxxxx
ReportedBy: steveo@xxxxxxxxxxx
QAContact: qa-dept-list@xxxxxxxxxx
From Bugzilla Helper:
User-Agent: Mozilla/5.0 (X11; U; Linux i686; en-US; rv:1.7.8) Gecko/20050524 Fedora/1.0.4-4 Firefox/1.0.4
Description of problem:
I have a Dell Dimension 4700C. Under Core 2.90 the VESA driver was selected and worked well. After an upgrade to Core 4 the same xorg.conf file does not work and is exactly the same file generated after running system-config-display --configure
The X server does not get an error on startup but I do get the following message from startx:
(WW) VESA(0): Failed to set up write-combining range (0x26400000,0x7b0000)
The driver that actually worked is i810.
The actual display is just totally messed up and frozen. I can abort the server via Ctl-Alt-F7.
I selected this as a high priority because I really don't expect people to be able to figure out what the correct colution is.
Version-Release number of selected component (if applicable):
system-config-display-1.0.29-1
How reproducible:
Always
Steps to Reproduce:
1. Upgrade from Core 2.90 to 4
2.
3.
Actual Results: Display is trashed.
Expected Results: See additional data below.
Additional info:
here's the new working xorg.conf section for the card:
