Seems like it died trying to perform int10 initialization?



I'm still pointing towards that assign pci resources patch from Gregs
tree that I mentioned earlier..


git is completely new to me - is there a git-specific way to get this
patch, or should I download it the usual way from somewhere?

the fact that disabling the DRM stops things from working is really
bad, maybe the pci_enable_device in the DRM is setting up the devices,
whereas without it X tries and fails...



That was strange, sure. Could be a different bug too.

I can try running the radeon xserver only, as the vga console is on the matrox
card.




I'm running low on ideas, I'm also having a hard time tracking what is
actually happening, the MGA bugs I've tracked are related to that
assign pci resources patch, and I really can't see what is happening
if the DRM isn't in the mix..

If you build a working kernel (i.e. like 2.6.13 without DRM) does it
hang similarly?



2.6.13 isn't released, so I assume you meant some earlier kernel?
I'll see if I can get a drm-less kernel running.
