Config:
PII 450 192 MB , Redhat 7.0, ATI Rage 128 Fury 32 MB,
Linux kernel 2.4.0-test11, XFree4.0 CVS 12/12/2000
When I launch the Xserver with module DRI activated, my screen stays black and the process X stop. On my console, only my keyboard works.
Xserver works fine when DRI is desactivated.
Note:
Module DRI works with XFRee 4.0.1 november version.
I think we have the same problem.
I can still move the pointer even though I can switch virtual screens, but the screen stays black. But for me, it manifests itself only when I launch a 3D app.
I will compile my kernel and XFree with egcs 1.1.2 instead of gcc 2.95. Who knows...
Ookaze
If you restart the X server a couple of times, does this help? I've had it take two or three restarts, but this is a Mobility 128 system (my laptop).
I solved the probleme with kernel 2.4.0-test12, =>DRI works
=> for me , the problem is module DRM (2.1.0)
sucess: Chromium, and xscreensaver (module OpenGL)
not sucess: (XServer is locked with black screen)
The demo SOF and descent3
I will try with the latest source.
