[openchrome-users] xf86-video-openchrome: X server crashing right upon start after upgrade to 1.20.11

Thu Apr 22 16:11:45 UTC 2021

Hello.

After upgrading to 1.20.11 the X server crashes / dumps core right after its launch here. The last log messages before the crash are
  Mapping MMIO at <some address>
  Unable to map MMIO. Error: Permission denied

Seen using the latest commits of branches master or main (main patched to have it find drm.h, see [1]), Arch Linux x86_64, VN896 / Chrome 9 HC. Sticking with point release 10 isn't really an option as 11 is fixing a vulnerability [2].

Any help to track this problem further and possibly solve it would be much appreciated.

Regards,

Peter Mattern
