Xorg on testing. Still not working. Tested on G200 matrox. No Go !
Yes. Still the Xorg on the testing is totally unusable on my UP1100 alpha.
I today tested it with matrox G200 AGP adapter and the system ended up
unusable.
This time I could connect the alpha via ssh connection and found out that
Xorg process was eating 100% of CPU. Killing the Xorg process did
recover the machine. Display was not usable at all after X been
running.. ( singals to display was lost on Xorg startup ) not even
consoles worked.
This must be a problem with Xorg 7.0 and alpha platform ! I have not
been able to use ANY controller with UP1100 and debian testing.. Yes I
know that it is testing.. But this kind of problem shall be solved on
unstable !!
It just seems to be that noone today uses those great alpha boxes
anymore ! I do not want to go for AMD64 !! I like my alpha too much !
