Member Registered: 2008-10-18 Posts: 142 "error setting MTRR", can't get X to start I have a Sony Vaio VGN-C140G that I can't get X to start on. Have been using the Wiki for xorg.conf setup. No problems to speak error setting mtrr startx of in Xorg.0.log. After "startx" the screen flashes like it always does going into X,

Error Setting Mtrr Invalid Argument 22
size=0x007b0000, type = 1) Invalid argument (22)" message but still get X shutting down and still get the stuff in dmesg.I googled around and it appears there is some bad interaction between this 2.6.28 (and .27) kernel, X (and drm), and the way mtrr is handled. I even tried just the simple vesa and still got the error. I guess there is no fix.The weird thing is, earlier in the day waiting for xserver to shut down error setting mtrr I was able to launch X. I kept rebooting it while working on xorg.conf, and from some point it failed, never to work again.This machine also works with Puppy Linux 4.1.2 using xorg. The kernel is 2.6.25 however, which according to my searches is before this problem turned up.The chipset is an Intel 945GM. The last messages in the xorg log are[drm] removed 1 reserved context for kernel [drm] unmapping 8192 bytes of SAREA 0xf8039000 at 0xb7ab8000 [drm] Closed DRM master.This is more a heads-up than anything. I'm guessing there's not a fix until a better kernel comes out. Back to Puppy for now...

For example, install fluxbox and make your $HOME/.xinitrc read Code: Select allexec startfluxboxIf it still doesn't start, try as a different user. The idea here is to narrow down the problem.
