dmesg? lspci -vv?

We have an AGP related issue with WC/UC paging that might be related,
but I'd need more info.

Are you sure you're not running with any of the debugging options
enabled? I see the same, but I have debugging enabled (rawhide
kernel).

OK. I do use radeon kms (r100).

On a lark, I tried out a non-kms boot this morning, but X never started;
I was going to update all of the user-mode code (dri2, mesa, x, the ati
driver, etc) before tyring again to check whether kms was required to
hit the issue. That takes a few hours to do on this box.

Dave> dmesg?

The only reelvant part of dmesg are of the form:

There are some:

CONFIG_HAVE_DMA_API_DEBUG=y
CONFIG_X86_DEBUGCTLMSR=y
CONFIG_CFG80211_DEBUGFS=y
CONFIG_MAC80211_DEBUGFS=y
CONFIG_PNP_DEBUG_MESSAGES=y
CONFIG_FIREWIRE_OHCI_DEBUG=y
CONFIG_USB_SERIAL_DEBUG=m
CONFIG_DEBUG_FS=y
CONFIG_DEBUG_KERNEL=y
CONFIG_SCHED_DEBUG=y
CONFIG_DEBUG_BUGVERBOSE=y
CONFIG_DEBUG_MEMORY_INIT=y
CONFIG_DEBUG_STACKOVERFLOW=y
CONFIG_KEYS_DEBUG_PROC_KEYS=y

I forgot about /proc/sched_debug, but am back at -rc6 right now; I'll
post an example of /proc/sched_debug output during the issue when I'm
next in rc8 or later.

I've just sent a pull req to Linus
http://bugzilla.kernel.org/show_bug.cgi?id=15328
this

http://bugzilla.kernel.org/attachment.cgi?id=25107
patch.

The relevant piece of dmesg is at the top ;-), where
it states if you have PAT support or not, but I
suspect if you try this patch it'll fix it.

Dave.
