Quadro FX4500+ 1.0-9746 + 2.6.18.2-34-default (opensuse 10.2 x86_64) NVRAM: Xid

NVRM: Xid (0005:00): 6, PE0000 0000 01017c00 00000000 ffffffff 00000000

while using nvidia driver, the default nv driver works fine

Re: Quadro FX4500+ 1.0-9746 + 2.6.18.2-34-default (opensuse 10.2 x86_64) NVRAM: Xid

I have a few questions:
0) Are you experiencing a problem, or are you just concerned about the Xid?
1) How can this problem be reproduced?
2) Does this reproduce if you're not using the Composite extension?
3) Have you verified that you're using the latest motherboard BIOS?
4) Does this problem persist with a more recent kernel?

Thanks,
Lonni

0) Are you experiencing a problem, or are you just concerned about the Xid?
the X server does not come up -> text blinking characters
(video memory corruption?)
The machine is still up (ssh).

1) How can this problem be reproduced?
always
2) Does this reproduce if you're not using the Composite extension?
xorg.conf with:
# Option "UseEdidFreqs"
# Option "ExactModeTimingsDVI"
# Option "NoLogo"
# Option "NoBandWidthTest"
# Option "AllowGLXWithComposite"
-> same errors (corrupted display and Xid messages)

/var/log/Xorg.0.log

(II) NVIDIA(0): Setting mode "2560x1600"
(WW) NVIDIA(0): The NVIDIA X driver has encountered too many errors. Falling

3) Have you verified that you're using the latest motherboard BIOS?
yes, latest :(

4) Does this problem persist with a more recent kernel?
it's the latest one from opensuse.

This looks like it might be specific to the S3992 motherboard you're using. Unfortunately, I do not have that board here.

My only suggestion at this point is to retest with a more recent (2.6.20.x) kernel.org kernel.

Thanks,
Lonni

Any opteron motherboard you would recommend based on your experience for this video card?

I will try tomorrow... I will also try another linux distribution just in case.

Tyan has changed their description of the S3992:
http://www.tyan.com/product_board_detail.aspx?pid=235
-> from the page 2007/02/15:
the S3992 includes support for PCI-X, PCI Express* ....( * Does not support PCIe Graphics Card ) ! BUMMER

this was NOT there when the board was released... :(

-> Not an NVIDIA issue but Tyan

thanks for your help
