             Bug #: 54892
           Summary: [patch] confusing error message with noaccel
    Classification: Unclassified
           Product: xorg
           Version: git
          Platform: All
        OS/Version: Linux (All)
            Status: NEW
          Severity: normal
          Priority: medium
         Component: Driver/nouveau
        AssignedTo: nouveau-PD4FTy7X32lNgt0PjOBp9y5qC8QIuHrW@public.gmane.org
        ReportedBy: freedesktop-xdCxd1SecUs@public.gmane.org
         QAContact: xorg-team-go0+a7rfsptAfugRpC6u6w@public.gmane.org


When the kernel module is given the 'noaccel' option, but acceleration is not
turned off in the x.org configuration, a confusing '-19' (ENODEV) error appears
in the x.org logs.

The patch at
http://lists.freedesktop.org/archives/nouveau/2012-June/010523.html provides a
more useful error message.

--- Comment #1 from Ilia Mirkin <imirkin-FrUbXkNCsVf2fBVCVOL8/A@public.gmane.org> ---
I don't think the bugtracker is the right place for patch submission. Doesn't
look like it ever got checked in. You could try resending it and providing a
fuller justification -- it's a bit odd to special-case a single error return.
Documentation in e.g. the wiki may be a better way to go. (But I'm not the one
accepting/rejecting the patches :) )
