I tried starting X on my A7000+ but all it did was cause NetBSD to
die horribly. When I typed 'xinit' the screen became corrupt.
Pressing the return key gave me the 'db>' prompt. There was no
kernel panic message. However, typing the command 'show pool'
produced the following output:

POOL[u]vm_fault (0xf35065e0, e3720000, 1, 0) -> 1
Unhandled trap (frame = 0xf35f9c0c)
Data abort: 'Translation fault (section)'
    status=005 address=e372037e PC=f017947c
Stopped in Xarm32VIDC at 0xf017947c: ldrb r3,[r2,#0x0000]

This failure happens every time I try to run X.

I am quite happy to believe that this happened as a result of
something I did. I ran xf86config beforehand to create XF86Config
and changed the symbolic link 'X' to point at Xarm32VIDC. Is this
correct?

This was with NetBSD 1.5.

Is it a case of me not configuring things properly or should I
open a problem? What other information would be needed?
