[ltp] T43p, xf86-video-ati, EXA with FireGL V3200 (rv380)

[Raanan Manor]

I have a problem debugging this - 

In the page you pointed , 
I need to attach gdb to a running X from a remote ssh session, This I
can do as I installed sshd .
 
But when I turn EXA on, the server crashes BEFORE I log in, So I can't
attach gdb to the running X pid (as there is no  X pid, X crashes and we
are back to gdm). 

Any Ideas ?

I'll try the - 
Section "ServerFlags"
        Option "NoTrapSignals" "true"
EndSection

method. 

Raanan.
