Hi there. Having been running the 2.4.0-test kernels on my laptop, I
quickly upgraded to 2.4.0 when it came out. A problem quickly arose:
X won't start.
Under 2.4.0-test12 it works fine.
Under 2.4.0 it exits after trying to load the int10 module...
from 2.4.0-test12 (and all others):

(EE) Screen(s) found, but none have a usable configuration.
Fatal server error:
no screens found
Things I have ruled out:
- Compiled with redhat 7's gcc 2.96 snapshot, and also with kgcc. No
diffrence.
- did a cat /proc/pci, lspci, and cat /proc/inturrupts and compaired
2.4.0 and 2.4.0-test12 and they were identical.
- Without changing anything besides the kernel X works. If I am in
2.4.0-test12 it's fine, if I am in 2.4.0 (final) it fails.
Further debugging, requests for logs, patches, or ideas are welcome.
This laptop is a dell inspiron 5000 (not 5000e). It has worked just
fine with X until now. It's a redhat 7 + all errata. It has
XFree86-4.0.1a on it.
thanks for any suggestions.
