I was under the impresion that newer DRM stuff had been stuffed in back in april directly from the r300 project. drm0: port 0xc000-0xc0ff mem 0xc0000000-0xcfffffff,0xe1000000-0xe100ffff irq 7 at device 0.0 on pci2 info: [drm] AGP at 0xb0000000 256MB info: [drm] Initialized radeon 1.16.0 20050311 on minor 0 drm0: port 0xc000-0xc0ff mem 0xc0000000-0xcfffffff,0xe1000000-0xe100ffff irq 7 at device 0.0 on pci2 info: [drm] AGP at 0xb0000000 256MB info: [drm] Initialized radeon 1.16.0 20050311 on minor 0 I'm also using xorg snap 6.8.99.5 which should have the newer development (r300+ I thought) DRI drivers in it. I could be wrong, but I don't get any more info from the crash than I mentioned last time :( Steve
