Bug Description
Binary package hint: xserver-
On Acer Aspire 1200 series the graphics adapter, S3 Inc. 86C380 ProSavageDDR K4M266 hard locks on X startup if DRI is enabled in xorg.conf. This happens before any visual feedback and I only see a black screen. Just plain X, no dm/wm loaded.
Option "DRI" "false" lets the X session start up correctly.
No previous Linux experience with this particular laptop model so I don't know if it has been working on previous releases. I can't get a good Xorg log file because of the hard lock, no response to ping or ssh and the log file itself after reboot is empty (the buffer was never written).
Happens on both, intrepid and jaunty.
package version: 2.2.1-1build2

Hi toni-spets,
Please attach the output of `lspci -vvnn`, and attach your /var/log/Xorg.0.log (and maybe Xorg.0.log.old) file from after reproducing this issue. If you've made any customizations to your /etc/X11/xorg.conf please attach that as well.
