[Bug 13854] New: freezes when fast user switching in gnome
http://bugs.freedesktop.org/show_bug.cgi?id=13854 Summary: freezes when fast user switching in gnome Product: xorg Version: 7.3 Platform: x86-64 (AMD64) OS/Version: Linux (All) Status: NEW Severity: normal Priority: medium Component: Driver/radeonhd AssignedTo: lverhaegen@suse.de ReportedBy: prusnik@gmail.com QAContact: xorg-team@lists.x.org On a random number of switches between users there would be appear a blank screen and a switch to one of the terminals and restarting X would do. However, continuing switching between users ends in a terminal system freeze with blank screen and a cursor blinking high in the left corner and the only cure there is is a HW reset. There is nothing in the logs on the subject to look for a cause. Similar behaviour happened when I was using the fglrx driver (regardless of version). I spotted a similar problem in Ubuntu's launchpad: https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/linux-restricted-modules-2.6.20/+b... In my case I now use radeonhd driver, v1.1.0, git updated on 28.12.2007 and the problem persists. The fglrx module is not loaded in the system and the xorg files and configurations are attached to a Bug #13853. -- Configure bugmail: http://bugs.freedesktop.org/userprefs.cgi?tab=email ------- You are receiving this mail because: ------- You are the QA contact for the bug, or are watching the QA contact. _______________________________________________ xorg-team mailing list xorg-team@lists.x.org http://lists.x.org/mailman/listinfo/xorg-team -- To unsubscribe, e-mail: radeonhd+unsubscribe@opensuse.org For additional commands, e-mail: radeonhd+help@opensuse.org

A blinking cursor on a blank screen indicates a console with no assigned VT is active (such as console 7 or 8) and the text mode has been restored by the driver. I assume the system is still responsive, ie you can log in from remote. What happens if you kill one (or both Xservers) from remote? Can you switch to a text console with Alt-F<n> or chvt <n>? -- Configure bugmail: http://bugs.freedesktop.org/userprefs.cgi?tab=email ------- You are receiving this mail because: ------- You are the QA contact for the bug, or are watching the QA contact. _______________________________________________ xorg-team mailing list xorg-team@lists.x.org http://lists.x.org/mailman/listinfo/xorg-team -- To unsubscribe, e-mail: radeonhd+unsubscribe@opensuse.org For additional commands, e-mail: radeonhd+help@opensuse.org

Will keep it open a tad more if eventually it comes to a freeze. -- Configure bugmail: http://bugs.freedesktop.org/userprefs.cgi?tab=email ------- You are receiving this mail because: ------- You are the QA contact for the bug, or are watching the QA contact. _______________________________________________ xorg-team mailing list xorg-team@lists.x.org http://lists.x.org/mailman/listinfo/xorg-team -- To unsubscribe, e-mail: radeonhd+unsubscribe@opensuse.org For additional commands, e-mail: radeonhd+help@opensuse.org
