Dear mailing list:

In short, I have compiled XFree86 4.1.0 on a Sun Ultra 5 with the ATI
Mach64 video card. Compilation was relatively smooth - should I give some
patches that fix sparc compilation with GCC 3.0.3?

My question is: the server gives the error
--
Could not mmap PCI memory
--
I know this is a known issue because there are several other messages
about this on Google, that's why I don't provide more complete server
error logs.

There is a patch mentioned for this, from David S. Miller, but I can't
track it down. Should I apply the massive debian patch (4.1.0-4.1.0.11) or
is there a smaller patch around just for sparc?

Sincerely,
Sean Callanan

Why not just install the Debian packages? If you want to build it, there
is a patch in the Debian sources just for this issue.
