Subject: thinkpad x200 X.server not work with gm4500 graphics
Date: Mon, 10 Nov 2008 23:25:18 +0800 [thread overview]
Message-ID: <20081110152518.GA3545@think> (raw)
deal,
My thinkpad x200's X.server can not startup on the kernel 2.6.28,
and dmesg will show as below:
-->>--
[drm] Initialized drm 1.1.0 20060810
pci 0000:00:02.0: power state changed by ACPI to D0
pci 0000:00:02.0: PCI INT A -> GSI 16 (level, low) -> IRQ 16

pci 0000:00:02.0: trying to insert into local/stolen memory

Then, I change file "drivers/char/agp/intel-agp.c" as this:
-->>--

- size = 4;
+ /* size = 4; */

} else {

--<<--
And Xorg can start now.
(1) Is it correct ?
Because older kernel use size as "512 + 4" at here, but now use "size = 4".
(2) How to deal with it if the patch is not right ?
(3) How to get more specification about gm4500 ?
