I recently upgraded my personal box here to -stable from 2.1.0-RELEASE.
The machine is a P100, IDE (I know, I know. :), 64Mb ram, ATI Mach64
video card.
I can run X -probeonly without ill effects, but the minute I actually
attempt to 'startx', the screen blanks, the system thinks for a minute,
the screen goes in to power saver mode, and the system falls flat on its
face and reboots itself. Obviously, I didn't have any problems under
-release. I'm using the same kernel configuration file as I was before;
the only thing that has changed was a 'make world'. It's 3.1.2E of the
Mach64 X server.
Any suggestions from the X gurus out there? As much as I love
text-only... it's rather irksome, to say the least. The rest of the
system is functioning perfectly, of course. Just not X.
