can't change configuration / can't enable 3D / sax2 doesn't show gfx card info
Last modified: 2006-05-30 10:19:32 UTC
during upgrade 9.3->10.1b7, sax2 didn't show a gfx card information, and therefore it wasn't possible to enable 3D acceleration. then in init 5, trying to change the configuration crashed the session. then in init 3, sax2 -r -i comes up, but when clicking on "change configuration", it exists without error message.

The X-Server crashed while sax is calling another X-Server with -probeonly. The log said: Fatal server error: EnterVT failed for screen 0 I attach the complete log

Looks like a second Xserver can't be started when using the i810 driver. :-(
> Looks like a second Xserver can't be started when using the i810 driver. :-( Marcus told me that this does not occur in general with the i810 driver! There are notebooks with the same chipset, on which this problem does *not* occur.
e.g. it can't be reproduced on our i945G testmachines.
This should be tested again after switching to the new i810 driver (SUSE 10.2 Alpha). ==> LATER
