Have been trying 2.6.x kernels today, including the 2.6.15-rc5 and it's
still there.

It's the same as for 2.6.13 and 2.6.15rc, did build a 2.6.14.3 as had
removed the 14.2 when I started to use 15rc.

The kernel output said "linux-kernel", which is why I sent the the mail to
"linux-kernel", maybe the displayed address should have the arch depending
address instead of the general?


More data:

Xorg: 6.8.2 (xaa patched sunffb driver)
Distro: Gentoo (64bits kernel, 32bit user)
Machine: Ultra 10

xorg.conf:
http://dev.gentoo.org/~fmccor/docs/xorg/xorg.conf/xorg.conf.html
(see the one for kernel 2.6)

Xorg.0.log: http://www.kotiaho.net/~trizt/tmpimg/sparc_xorg.log

dmesg output from kernels 2.6.13 -> 2.6.15-rc5:
http://www.kotiaho.net/~trizt/tmpimg/sparc_xorg.dmesg


As earlier said, the Xorg 6.8.2 works fine with the 2.4 specific
xorg.conf (see on the xorg.conf link) and with a 2.4 kernel.
