           Summary: Repeatable segv starting X w/ ATI closed-source driver
           Product: xorg
           Version: CVS_head
          Platform: PC
        OS/Version: Linux
            Status: NEW
          Severity: major
          Priority: P2
         Component: Driver/Radeon
        AssignedTo: xorg-bugzilla-noise at freedesktop.org
        ReportedBy: wowbagger at sktc.net


I have never been able to get the closed source (boo!) ATI drivers to play
nicely with the Xorg server - they always segv at startup.

This is with a 2.8.1 kernel with 8K stacks enabled.

Steps to reproduce:
1) Install the ATI driver RPM for 4.3.0
2) Build the ATI kernel module.
3) Select ATI driver.
4) run startx.

Expected results:
X should start.

Actual results:
X segv's at start in mPicture_Init.
