Description José Jorge 2019-07-10 11:58:09 CEST

This is a laptop which was upgraded from MGA4 to 5, then 6, now 7.

Xorg crashes with a message in the log followed with a backtrace:

Xorg: ../include/privates.h:121: dixGetPrivateAddr: Assertion `key->initialized' failed

Downgrading the following packages back to to MGA6 version workaround the problem :
x11-server-xwayland-1.19.5-1.2.mga6.i586
x11-server-xorg-1.19.5-1.2.mga6.i586
x11-driver-video-ati-1:7.10.0-1.1.mga6.i586
x11-server-common-1.19.5-1.2.mga6.i586

Please attach your /etc/X11/xorg.conf & your /var/log/Xorg.0.log when you're getting the crash.
And paste the output of "lspcidrake -v|grep Card"

Hi bug reporter and hi assignee and others involved,

Please reopen this bug report if it is still valid for Mageia 8 or 9(cauldron), and change "Version:" in the upper left of this report accordingly.

This report is being closed as OLD because it was filed against Mageia 7, for which  support ended on June 30th 2021.

Thanks,
Marja
