1 Hello,

5 Well, an intel based portable with a radeon 9000 was working fine
6 with a 2.6.12-gentoo-r9 kernel until this morning. X(kdm) would
7 not start. I logged in (console) and entered 'startx' and got something
8 very strange:
9
10 First I had to comment out the { Load "speedo" } line, then the next
11 problem was(/var/log/Xorg.0.log):
12
13 'Symbol drmGetClient from module
14 /usr/lib/modules/drivers/radeon_drv.o is unresolved'
15
16 I also get:
17 (**) Keyboard1: CustomKeycodes disabled
18 (WW) No core pointer registered
19 (II) XINPUT: Adding extended input device "Keyboard1" (type: KEYBOARD)
20 No core pointer
21
22 Fatal server error:
23 failed to initialize core devices
24
25 Checking /etc/X11/xorg.conf it is otherwise as it was
26 (except for speedo) commented out in the fonts section.
27
28 I did a emerge -uD world yesterday.
29 I tried the older
30 2.6.gentoo-r4 kernel, which worked fine for weeks
31 and it gives the same problem, with identical results.
32
33 I rebuilt the 2.6.12-gentoo-r9 kernel with radeon
34 detailed debugging turn on and here is what I get:
