I'm not too sure but
I think I may have run into a known bug with X and some 2.6 kernels. When I try
to start X when booting to my 2.6.7 kernel (built from the debian source
package) I see the following in the dmesg output:
[drm:
i830_wait_ring] *ERROR* space: 131056 wanted 131064
[drm:
i830_wait_ring] *ERROR* lockup
This doesn't occur
with my 2.4 kernel and after some googling it looks like a bug in X with some of
the 2.6 kernels. Anybody have any additional information or a way I can get X
working with a 2.6 kernel. I installed debian on a VAIO TR3a that uses the Intel
2200 BG wireless card. Intel has a driver I want to try but it requires the 2.6
kernel for compilation. Under the 2.4 kernel I'm using the
ndiswrapper.
