[SOLVED] xorg > 1.10 and catalyst >11.8 causes X seg fault

I am trying to get xorg 1.11 and catalyst 12.4 working with a Radeon HD 2400 XT and now a Radeon HD 5450 and with both of them if I upgrade xorg to > 1.10 or catalyst > 11.8 X will seg fault at start:

If I look at the log using xorg 1.10 and catalyst 11.8 at that same point where it seg faults it looks to be doing AIGLX stuff:

[   427.704] ukiOpenByBusid: ukiGetBusid reports PCI:1:0:0

[   427.811] (**) Power Button: Applying InputClass "evdev keyboard catchall"
[   427.811] (II) LoadModule: "evdev"

I tried to disable AIGLX but that didn't work.
radeon driver is blacklisted in /etc/modprobe.d/blacklist-fglrx.conf

Anyone have any ideas?

Re: [SOLVED] xorg > 1.10 and catalyst >11.8 causes X seg fault

Any reason you can't use Xorg 1.10 if it's working?

By the way, use code tags please. Makes it much easier to read.

Re: [SOLVED] xorg > 1.10 and catalyst >11.8 causes X seg fault

I can but eventually xorg 1.10 and catalyst 11.8 will be obsolete/unavailable and I will have to upgrade to something.  I figured I am already a few versions behind so I thought I would try to get up to the latest.
Maybe I will try again with xorg 1.12 and catalyst 12.5.

You should contact AMD support about the segfaults.

Re: [SOLVED] xorg > 1.10 and catalyst >11.8 causes X seg fault

Ignore my last post. I misread your post thinking it worked with 1.10 and 12.4.

As Mr. Elendig said, contacting AMD is probably the best thing to do. Don't go through their bug tracker though. They don't check that.

Find the number relevant to you here:
http://support.amd.com/us/contacts/Page … pport.aspx

Then call and tell them you are using Linux. They should give you a support ticket and get you in touch with their Linux department. If you can reproduce this in one of their "supported" distros (Ubuntu, OpenSUSE and RedHat are all they support), then all the better.

Re: [SOLVED] xorg > 1.10 and catalyst >11.8 causes X seg fault

I fixed my issue.
I uninstalled all my catalyst packages and installed the xf86 ones just to see if X would start with xorg-server 1.12.2 which it did.
Once I did that I ran a find for anything fglrx and found a bunch of left over junk.
I ran pacman -Qo on the files and found they were not owned by any package so I removed them.
I reinstalled catalyst and was able to start X.

Have you been using the .run file directly from AMD?
