I repeat THIS IS A 12.3 PROBLEM.
Some of my comments in our discussions the first week in January were attempts to get you to spend some time regarding SiS video in the Bugzillas. I don't see you followed up, no comments or CC from you upstream where SiS trouble has been known for some time, and nothing from you in any Novell bug mentioning SiS: https://bugs.freedesktop.org/show_bug.cgi?id=35763 https://bugs.freedesktop.org/show_bug.cgi?id=60891
https://bugs.freedesktop.org/show_bug.cgi?id=35763#c3 Since I, back then, worked around the problem, which, if you recall, was a frequency issue, not the segfault issue, I decided this was my lack of experience with these pieces of doggie-do-do. Once again I've worked around that bug -- use the vesa driver like in the install instead of the Sis -- but the result of that is that I run back into the frequency bug that I mentioned in January. Now it telling me that it want to operate at 46.4 kHz when the range is 56-60. And that's set in the 50-monitor.conf: Section "Monitor" Identifier "LG1953S" Vendorname "LG" Modelname "LG 1953 S" Horizsync 30.0 - 83.0 Vertrefresh 56.0 - 60.0 So what's up? On top of all this ... Xorg.0.log says that the code is reading that [ 57.629] (II) VESA(0): LG1953S: Using hsync range of 30.00-83.00 kHz [ 57.629] (II) VESA(0): LG1953S: Using vrefresh range of 56.00-60.00 Hz Right. It then goes on to say [ 57.629] (II) VESA(0): Not using mode "1280x1024@60" (no mode of this name) [ 57.629] (II) VESA(0): Not using mode "1280x960@60" (no mode of this name) [ 57.629] (II) VESA(0): Not using mode "1024x768@60" (no mode of this name) [ 57.629] (II) VESA(0): Not using mode "800x600@60" (no mode of this name) [ 57.629] (II) VESA(0): Not using mode "800x600@56" (no mode of this name) [ 57.629] (II) VESA(0): Not using mode "640x480@60" (no mode of this name) [ 57.630] (II) VESA(0): Not using built-in mode "1280x1024" (no mode of this name) [ 57.630] (II) VESA(0): Not using built-in mode "1024x768" (no mode of this name) [ 57.630] (II) VESA(0): Not using built-in mode "800x600" (no mode of this name) [ 57.630] (II) VESA(0): Not using built-in mode "640x480" (no mode of this name) Well that unhelpful! Not least of all because # grep "@60" /etc/X11/xorg.conf.d/50*.conf /etc/X11/xorg.conf.d/50-monitor.conf: ModeLine "640x480@60" 25.2 640 656 752 800 480 490 492 525 -hsync -vsync /etc/X11/xorg.conf.d/50-monitor.conf: ModeLine "800x600@60" 40.0 800 840 968 1056 600 601 605 628 +hsync +vsync /etc/X11/xorg.conf.d/50-monitor.conf: ModeLine "1024x768@60" 65.0 1024 1048 1184 1344 768 771 777 806 -hsync -vsync /etc/X11/xorg.conf.d/50-monitor.conf: ModeLine "1280x960@60" 102.1 1280 1360 1496 1712 960 961 964 994 -hsync +vsync /etc/X11/xorg.conf.d/50-monitor.conf: ModeLine "1280x1024@60" 108.0 1280 1328 1440 1688 1024 1025 1028 1066 +hsync +vsync /etc/X11/xorg.conf.d/50-screen.conf: Modes "1280x1024@60" "1280x960@60" "1024x768@60" "800x600@60" "800x600@56" "640x480@60" /etc/X11/xorg.conf.d/50-screen.conf: Modes "1280x1024@60" "1280x960@60" "1024x768@60" "800x600@60" "800x600@56" "640x480@60" So if I had to write up a bug based on this, it wouldn't be about segfaulting! I've worked around the segfaulting. I'm trying to figure how to work around this nonsense. -- The more laws and restrictions there are, The poorer people become.
