I fail to understand why, since the changes kind of apply to the rv670. I ran the 1.1.0 version for 2 days without a problem, then I moved on to one commit further and voila, blackouts. -- 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

I have to say, however, that even without this patch there occurred a blackout but only 1 in 2 days and it happened while no user was active. I noticed it when the other user wanted to resume and was greeted with a black screen. Changing terminals would do. With the patch, however, the blackouts were more frequent (at least one in an hour) and were occurring while user was active. -- 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

But I think that more than a month back would be to far in the past, that's why I decided to go from 1.0.0. I compiled the 1.0.0. plus following two commits which I found harmless (hopefully). So I'm going to try this one for a couple of days to see if there are any blackouts. -- 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

http://bugs.freedesktop.org/show_bug.cgi?id=13853 ------- Comment #16 from prusnik@gmail.com 2008-01-07 10:24 PST ------- Just an update: the 1.0.0. also resulted in blackouts so I reverted back to 0.0.4. From there on no blackouts happened and yesterday I've updated to commit 122f8f8ec7019267dd79ab612c96b2c5a5bcac92. So far so good (i.e. no blackouts). Today I've moved one more ahead to 78b763f97ab62cf8d504cc238bb4d59c5b9bf6fa.

http://bugs.freedesktop.org/show_bug.cgi?id=13853 --- Comment #18 from Aljaž Prusnik 2008-01-15 14:25:04 PST --- I think I may have found the problematic one. I'm currently using commit 1c07fbe6284f90c9b8967d680a2d558e6785d428 and it went without blackouts now for more than two days. The next commit (90247017...) already produced blackouts. I still do not know what triggers them so I'm not sure what to do to reproduce. But maybe if it helps, I can describe once again what happened and what I did when a blackout occured. The screen goes black on a random occasion and in none of the occasions was I using one and the same application where it happened. After the blackout I tried switching the terminal to vt1 with CTRL-ALT-1 and then back to vt7 which resulted in keyboard producing all this weird characters so I could not issue any command and neither switch back to vt1. I could do connect remotely and restart gdm. Another time I decided to log off users remotely before restarting gdm (remotely). And when I pkilled a user, the vt7 was back in action (i presume it restarts during log-offs). I could also do both things locally if I stayed on vt1 and not switch back right away to vt7. -- Configure bugmail: http://bugs.freedesktop.org/userprefs.cgi?tab=email ------- You are receiving this mail because: ------- You are the QA contact for the bug. _______________________________________________ xorg-team mailing list xorg-team@lists.x.org http://lists.x.org/mailman/listinfo/xorg-team

Apparently, there are some cases where the blanking bits aren't restored. I assume you are using RandR modesetting, so there's probably still a bug lurking somewhere. -- Configure bugmail: http://bugs.freedesktop.org/userprefs.cgi?tab=email ------- You are receiving this mail because: ------- You are the QA contact for the bug. _______________________________________________ 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

http://bugs.freedesktop.org/show_bug.cgi?id=13853 --- Comment #22 from Aljaž Prusnik 2008-01-16 04:32:32 PST --- Yes, I'm aware of the level of certainty, that's why I used the wording (I think...) ;) Anyway, I'm not 100% sure, but I only assumed this after watching the behaviour of the computer. During the weekend I was more time on it than usual, hence the blackouts occured more often and I used every such event to move to one commit back. During the last 2 days I tried doing everything I did during the weekends where I would get the black screen but did not succeed (yet). Of course, to be certain, I would wait another week to confirm or overrule. Are there any more ideas what commit would potentially trigger this if it happens again (how far back should I return?). Could this be also hardware related as no one is calling in for the same problem? About the mode setting: I hope I understand what you ask - I don't have any custom mode setting anywhere. I use the same xorg.conf all the time and don't use xrandr commands at all. -- Configure bugmail: http://bugs.freedesktop.org/userprefs.cgi?tab=email ------- You are receiving this mail because: ------- You are the QA contact for the bug. _______________________________________________ xorg-team mailing list xorg-team@lists.x.org http://lists.x.org/mailman/listinfo/xorg-team

http://bugs.freedesktop.org/show_bug.cgi?id=13853 --- Comment #26 from TommyDrum 2008-01-16 08:24:49 PST --- First, a little change in behaviour (always with the git source revision I've got, not the one mentioned by Aljaž): I noticed that this black out just occured to me once more with the first user, so it's not a matter of using the second vt; second, it seems that this occurs to me only when I've got the second user logged in (operative or not, since the other vt session is locked at this time). Aljaž could you please tell me the exact command you used to get the revision you mentioned?

http://bugs.freedesktop.org/show_bug.cgi?id=13853 --- Comment #34 from TommyDrum 2008-01-31 09:03:39 PST --- Sorry for the long delay in responding, I had a cute little root partition corruption and had to reinstall everything; I conferm the findings from Aljaž about the older commit which stayed stable (no blackouts for about 4 days of continuous uptime), and latest git checkout always presents the problem with two or more users logged in (random blackouts). No problem is found when one user is logged in in my case. I was running kubuntu 7.10, now on 8.04; I will start trying again with the latest commit and post accordingly, since 8.04 has xorg 7.3. -- Configure bugmail: http://bugs.freedesktop.org/userprefs.cgi?tab=email ------- You are receiving this mail because: ------- You are the QA contact for the bug. _______________________________________________ xorg-team mailing list xorg-team@lists.x.org http://lists.x.org/mailman/listinfo/xorg-team

http://bugs.freedesktop.org/show_bug.cgi?id=13853 --- Comment #38 from TommyDrum 2008-02-01 18:43:42 PST --- Let me resume everything that has been side on my side: - Latest git (rev. caa10014d115a49a59b4a2aef6ce36a4e615556a) has been fetched and built from scratch and presents random blackouts. - Revision 1c07fbe6284f90c9b8967d680a2d558e6785d428 (Handle non-branch case of git workdir) -the one working for Aljaž, I think- has been fetched after having removed the *entire* xf86-video-radeonhd directory and does *not* present blackouts after various days being used 24hours (so I confirm what was said by Aljaž). - The culprit revision, as I found out about an hour ago (9024701762ea282e5f861e8399b194b224bf5d2b - CRTCs: Implement a Blank hook) has also been fetched after removing the entire xf86-video-radeonhd directory and presents the aforementioned blackout problem. I think this also answers Pierre Pronchery on the mailing list who had pointed out that it could have been a dependency issue and not a bug. BTW, the warnings spat out in xorg log (the ones on my last post) seem to be only change-vt related, but anyway, this is what revision 9024701762ea282e5f861e8399b194b224bf5d2b spits when I have to switch vt's in order to get the screen back: (II) Open ACPI successful (/var/run/acpid.socket) (WW) RADEONHD(0): RandR: While switching off DVI-I_1/DAC_B: output DAC B is also used by DVI-I_1/DAC_B - ignoring (WW) RADEONHD(0): RandR: While switching off TV_7PIN_DIN/DAC_B: output DAC B is also used by DVI-I_1/DAC_B - ignoring (WW) RADEONHD(0): RandR: While switching off DVI-I_2/TMDS_B: output TMDS B is also used by DVI-I_2/TMDS_B - ignoring (EE) RADEONHD(0): TMDSBVoltageControl: unhandled chipset: 0x9505.

http://bugs.freedesktop.org/show_bug.cgi?id=13853 --- Comment #42 from Egbert Eich 2008-02-04 00:14:39 PST --- It's possible that some client doing DMPS is causing this. In the latter case a client connecting to the wrong X server. However then the problem should appear independently of commit (9024701762ea282e5f861e8399b194b224bf5d2b - CRTCs: Implement a Blank hook) as DPMS is used also otherwise. It would be easy to distinguish: does the screen only go blank or does it also go into power savings? About the verbosity level: this needs to be done on the command line, so if you are using x/k/gdm you will have to edit /etc/X11/xdm/Xservers (here on my non-debian system). This file contains the command line to run to start the Xserver. add '-logverbose 7'. (Make sure to remove it after this test). You can also try to disable dpms completely here: add '-dpms' to the Xserver command line. -- Configure bugmail: http://bugs.freedesktop.org/userprefs.cgi?tab=email ------- You are receiving this mail because: ------- You are the QA contact for the bug. _______________________________________________ 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
