From a quick look this looks like a missing framebuffer driver but I'm no Xorg expert.

That it behaved differently on a reboot/restart, too me, is an additional datum. It is not clear from the description if Rajko was booting XEN or Desktop. Based on the information available by opening a separate ticket I could equally be accused of not checking for an existing report had opened a new bug. If his (her?) problem is across the board and not XEN specific then I would agree this is probably a separate issue but at the time the wasn't sufficient information to decide. I'm at work now but will append the required info within the next day or so (hijacked or not), if you still feel this is a separate issue I will gladly open a new ticket.

Apropos KMS, I tried both, radeon.modeset=0 and 1, also nomodeset, nopreload and it didn't work.

Unfortunately the modeset option is ignored for radeon. We needed to disable KMS completely for radeon, since our patch wasn't accepted. You need to recompile the kernel to change that. And if you really plan to use KMS you need to replace half of the X stack as well. See http://airlied.livejournal.com/66958.html for more details. No, we won't do this for openSUSE 11.2. -- Configure bugmail: http://bugzilla.novell.com/userprefs.cgi?tab=email ------- You are receiving this mail because: ------- You are on the CC list for the bug.

The laptop is a HP Compaq nx6325 with a AMD Turion TL-60 and a Radeon Xpress 200M 5975 (RS482), with the radeon driver. The first installation (clean) appeared to have failed. After developing the configurations and running the system configuration task, the boot screen showed a few lines, the computer tried to switch to graphics display, and all went blank and dead. I tried the repair and rescue options on the installation DVD, and all kinds of error messages showed up. I thought it was a total failure. But maybe the configuration was not finished. I tried a fourth time, waited a long time after the screen went blank, and shut the power off. I kept the install disk in on restarting, then used the 'boot from the hard disk' option to start the system. It came up. I was able to configure everything as I wanted. The only possibly significant error I see on bootup (and not shown in any files) is that 'staprun' is not found. It is in /usr/bin. There are still some problems. For awhile, it seemed that I could not restart the system unless I had the install disk inserted and used the 'boot' option. Then I found that there was no xorg.conf file. I copied a file from my 11.1 files. It helps a lot, but there are still some failures. Sometimes, I also get some lines across windows, or left-over patches from previous windows. It's mostly OK, but far short of all previous systems on the computer. One final problem. Sax2 (with or without flags) leads to a blank screen and a dead computer. Every time. Is there an update to the radeon (not radeonhd) driver? Is there an ATI driver that will work, and how do I get it and not one that is meant for later chips? I can provide Xorg.99.log/.log.old, Xorg.0.log/log.old, or other files as needed.

I now have a bigger problem. At first, the new rpm seemed to be OK. There was a blank line across the login screen on bootup, but it disappeared in later screens. I tried sax2, it ran, and produced a somewhat different xorg.conf than I had before. A few minutes later, the screen showed a message that the screen saver had not been configured. (It had been done earlier.) In going to the KDE menu, I saw the display was slightly garbled. But the real problem is that when I tried to run the 'Display' feature of the Personal Settings app, I got the KDE Crash Handler. I reverted back to the original xorg-x11-driver-video, removed xorg.conf and ran sax2 again. The save did not work and the computer hung. I rebooted and restored my original xorg.conf (from v11.1). Now, reboots and logins are OK, operation seems fine, and the screen saver works. BUT, I still get the KDE Crash Handler when I try to access 'Display.' Every time. That function is lost. (All of the other functions I tried seem to be OK.) If the automatic configuration is not relying on xorg.conf much (although there seems to be some effects), there must be some configuration information hidden in secret places. Where is it? How do I fix this problem?

The aspect ratio is 4:3, but 1400x1050 to me appear as a bit high. 11.2 xorg.conf - uses vesa driver, - monitor is generic "1024X768@60HZ" while resolution is still set to 1400x1050. Both have set Virtual 3840 1200 which keeps CPU and GPU busy doing something that you don't see. Remove it and graphic performance will jump to the sky. Using aging SaX2 sometimes creates problems instead to solve them. My recomendation is to install radeon driver from: http://download.opensuse.org/repositories/X11:/XOrg:/11.2/openSUSE_11.2/ move xorg.conf to the safe place and restart computer without it.
