I've also done some testing on G45 here, I've also seen the write faults before graphics device init or after dma unmap pages. I tried to look it up in my memo, which turns out one message like this should be a BIOS bug that doesn't initialize the GTT table correctly. But I'm quite sure about it now, better to ask our chipset people to verify if this problem has been fixed or not. -- Open Source Technology Center, Intel ltd. $gpg --keyserver wwwkeys.pgp.net --recv-keys 4D781827 Attachment:
