[Openchrome-users] "Reclaim buffers locked deadlock"

[Benno Schulenberg]

Hi,

Today I've upgraded from kernel 2.6.17 to 2.6.18, plus the latest drm from git,
and the latest libdrm.  When X is starting up there is now a pause of several
seconds before the cursor first appears, and in the kernel log there's this:

Nov 11 23:48:31 ordesa kernel: [drm:drm_release] *ERROR* Reclaim buffers locked deadlock.
Nov 11 23:48:31 ordesa kernel: [drm:drm_release] *ERROR* This is probably a single thread having multiple

Anyone else seeing this?  Should I maybe be using the in-kernel drm instead?
