Yesterday evening I upgraded a Gateway 450 laptop from 5.0-RELEASE-p3
to 5.0-CURRENT. Unfortunately, as a byproduct of that upgrade,
I can no longer start X. Instead, it now aborts with Signal 10. :-(
Here is the end of the XFree86 log file:

Comparing the XFree86 log to an older one in which XFree86 was working,
it seems that the current server is choking reading the virtual
display size. Here is the output from when it was still working
under 5.0-RELEASE-p3:

(Note the probe of the card for the virtual size succeeds in 5.0-RELEASE,
but fails in 5.0-CURRENT.)
At boot, the graphics card is probed as:

Has anyone else experienced problems with X ceasing to work after a
5.0-RELEASE -> 5.0-CURRENT upgrade?? I did not change X at all during
the upgrade. All I did was rebuilt world and kernel, as per
/usr/src/UPDATING. After discovering X no longer worked, I rebuilt my
X server and X libraries ports via portupgrade -f, but still have the
same problem.
I notice the drm device has remained fairly dormant, although
according to the CVS logs there was a change to a header file
(drm_vm.h) yesterday. Could this be the problem?
I can post full XFree86 startup log, boot log, XF86Config, etc.
if desired.
Any help is appreciated, as this leaves the laptop pretty useless
right now for the kind of work for which it's used. :-(
If all else fails, I will have to try and regress back to 5.0-RELEASE. :-(
(Please Cc: me on any replies to the list.)
Cheers,
Paul.
