[Bug 532530] [NEW] Segmentation fault at address (nil)

 

Public bug reported:

Binary package hint: xorg

Testing Lucid 10.04 LiveCD i386 for 2010-03-04 there is a continuation
of an Xorg crash at log-in. The alpha-3 CD image didn't give any useful
cause but the 2010-03-04 image does.

GDM begins and starts the live user session which crashes almost
immediately (sometimes the desktop background is shown briefly, but that
is it). GDM then restarts and offers the log-in screen.

To enable useful debugging the image is booted via PXE/NFS to capture
netconsole kernel logging. opensssh-server is installed and an SSH
session used to collect the log files. Xorg.0.log.old shows:

Caught signal 11 (Segmentation fault). Server aborting

kern.log shows (not sure if this the cause of the segfault):

-----
kernel: [  110.836039] [drm:i810_wait_ring] *ERROR* space: 65520 wanted 65528
kernel: [  110.844101] [drm:i810_wait_ring] *ERROR* lockup

This may be part of the issue in bug #342122 "[i815] [i815]
[drm:drm_release] *ERROR* reclaim_buffers_locked() deadlock"

I'm attaching the tar.gz archive of /var/log/ and the .xsession-errors
files.
