Gentle readers,

I've observed the phenomenon "kernel 2.6.27.19-3.2-default breaks ATI 
Proprietary Linux Driver-8.582" on two different systems.

Both are running SuSE 11.1 with current kernel update.

Before the kernel update, both systems worked flawlessly on the video side.

1st. System:
Manufacturer: Hewlett-Packard
Product Name: HP Compaq dc5750 Microtower

01:05.0 VGA compatible controller: ATI Technologies Inc RS482 [Radeon Xpress 
200]
01:05.1 Display controller: ATI Technologies Inc Radeon Xpress Series (RS482)

used at work

2nd. System:
Asrock K7S41GX
Radeon 9550

used at home

In both situations, the display blacked out, but the system remained responsive 
- I could login remotely and issue a reboot sequence. Both systems got the 
kernel modules built fresh from scratch.

Since kernel 2.6.27.19-3.2-default or kernel 2.6.27.19-3.2-pae is planned for 
SLES 11, it would be great, if it were compatible...

Yours sincerely

Christoph-Erdmann Pfeiler
