[DragonFlyBSD - Bug #3351] XDM and GDM3 display manager under DragonFlyBSD 6.4: After starting — do only display black screen and fail to run correctly

[bugtracker-admin at leaf.dragonflybsd.org]

Issue #3351 has been updated by adrian.


Dear maintainer,

above problem, in that Xorg refuses to load and XDM not executing, was fixed with the kind help of the IRC user 'servik'.

His bugfix, he already included into dports pkg'es is the following:

https://github.com/DragonFlyBSD/DeltaPorts/pull/1474/files

He told me, has has included the patch in-to the next quarterly release of the xf86-video-vesa dports pkg manger package.

The error message we have seen, when launching XOrg through startx is:

vesa0: Ignoring device with a bound kernel driver

Thank you a lot for your kind attention!

Dear Maintainer,

currently under DragonFlyBSD 6.4 and with up-to-date packages from pkg package manager, XDM and GDM3 fail to load correctly.

I am able to start a local Xorg session running CTWM with the 'startx' commando. This works!

So the Xorg configuration works. With the same settings, XDM worked under DragonFlyBSD 6.2.

I am running DragonFlyBSD 6.4 as VM under a Debian Linux/testing KVM/qemu host.

Thank you very much in advance.

Sincerely,

Adrian Kieß
