The screen goes black, only mouse curser remains. kernel mode setting is inactive (because it is dysfunctional, no graphics screen at all). The X-server cannot be killed afterwards, a reboot cannot be avoided. Trying to kill the X-server ends in a kernel BUG (see log attached). I attached my xorg.conf, too, maybe it helps finding out the issue.

Either replace Load "dri" Load "dri2" with Disable "dri" Disable "dri2" in your xorg.conf or switch to radeonhd driver. Can you confirm that this fixes the issue? -- Configure bugmail: https://bugzilla.novell.com/userprefs.cgi?tab=email ------- You are receiving this mail because: ------- You are on the CC list for the bug.

The radeonhd driver shows colored stripes every other time, therefore it is no alternative.

Hence the issue needs to be fixed upstream. You can report the issue via the ATI mailing list http://lists.freedesktop.org/mailman/listinfo/xorg-driver-ati or X.Org's bugzilla https://bugs.freedesktop.org/ (product: xorg, component: Driver/Radeon) -- Configure bugmail: https://bugzilla.novell.com/userprefs.cgi?tab=email ------- You are receiving this mail because: ------- You are on the CC list for the bug.
