I receive a distorted screen content when performing special actions in some applications. I found that it seems to be reproducible, when e.g. starting the xv application. In this situation, the system seems to remain responsive, that means, I can see changes in the distorted screen, if I e.g. move the mouse. It is possible to switch to a different terminal using Strg+Alt+Fx. But changing back using Strg+Alt+F7 does not recover from this situation. A reboot is required to do so. 2. When playing a game, such as Crack Attack or Supertuxkart, the game at first seems to run without a problem. But after a short period of time, the whole systems locks up completely. In this situation, it is not possible to change to a different terminal and pressing the reset button is required. These problems were not present in earlier versions of OpenSuse. I used 11.0 which ran flawlessly. Unfortunately, it is not possible to use the ATI propritary fglrx driver any more since the support for this board has been removed in the current version. The only radeon driver related kernel error messages I found In the kernel log are the following: [drm:radeon_dvi_detect] *ERROR* DVI-I-1: probed a monitor but no|invalid EDID i2c i2c-2: sendbytes: NAK bailout. Reproducible: Always Steps to Reproduce: 1. Start program causing the error (xv, Crack Attack, ...) 2. 3. Actual Results: Screen gets scrambled/system locks up Expected Results: xv should start without messing up the screen/Crack Attack should not cause the system to lock up -- 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.
