Bug#378081: "Cannot read V_BIOS" memory allocation error



Package: xserver-xorg-core
Version: 1.0.2-9

My six-card x.org configuration started failing and/or crashing during
the xserver initialization with memory allocation errors on the 6.9
release and hasn't been fixed so far as I've found yet.

Requesting insufficient memory window!: start: 0xd0000000 end: 0xdbffffff size 0xd88a0000
Requesting insufficient memory window!: start: 0xdc000000 end: 0xe3ffffff size 0xd88a0000
(EE) R128(3): Cannot read V_BIOS

Only the AGP card seems to work with the 7.0 release. The individual
logs for all cards and each card, along with a lot of diagnostic
information, are available (for size reasons) at
http://neuroblastoma.omgwallhack.org/home/jrayhawk/xorgbugreport/

The 6.8 log is a Gentoo compile of x.org made for reference which works
much the same way (as far as I can see) as Debian's 6.8 releases did.
Gentoo's 6.9/7.0 packages exhibit the same broken behavior as seen here.

I can provide any further information if requested.

I am willing to give a trustworthy interested party root access to the
machine. Just provide a SSH key and I can get that set up.
