Product: xorg Version: 7.3 Platform: x86 (IA32) OS/Version: Linux (All) Status: NEW Severity: critical Priority: high Component: Driver/radeonhd AssignedTo: lverhaegen@suse.de ReportedBy: shlomif@iglu.org.il QAContact: xorg-team@lists.x.org Created an attachment (id=29865) --> (http://bugs.freedesktop.org/attachment.cgi?id=29865) My xorg.conf file When I'm using x11-driver-video-radeonhd-1.2.5-1mdv2010.0 on my Mandriva Linux Cooker system (started from startx in the text mode run-level), and I switch to a virtual console using Ctrl+Alt+F1/etc. then if I switch back (Ctrl+Alt+F7), then X.Org hangs completely, and I cannot enter any keyboard input (including not Ctrl+Alt+Backspace or Ctrl+Alt+Del). This used to work perfectly with radeonhd a few months ago, but now it is broken. I'm using the following spec: http://www.shlomifish.org/meta/FAQ/#computers-specs Attached is my xorg.conf file. -- 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

My guess: try updating libdrm, Mesa, and use the 2.6.31 kernel (at least).
radeonhd used to not enable DRI by default, which it does now.
What are the minimum versions of libdrm and Mesa that I need? I'm already using 2.6.31.2-desktop-0.rc1.1mnb .

This bug is still present in a close-to-latest Cooker with: * kernel 2.6.31.5-desktop-1mnb * xorg-x11-7.3-6mdv2010.0 * x11-driver-video-radeonhd-1.2.5-1mdv2010.0 * mesa-7.6-0.1mdv2010.0 * And I'm on IceWM from CVS head. This really makes it harder to test stuff in other fresh Unix user accounts. Why should we suffer from such a bug for over a month? (seems longer). Mr. Hopf - why haven't you replied to my question until now?

What's the GPU in question?
I'm using an ATI Radeon HD 2600 Pro.
Can you ssh in and get at Xorg.0.log? dmesg?
Yes, I can - ssh is still working. I'm now trying to disable DRI.

Because nobody has time and/or expertise to work on it? This is open source software - if something bothers you you can work on it yourself! I can only work on radeonhd if I have spare time, so do the other developers.
Mr. Hopf - why haven't you replied to my question until now?
If I don't know the answer... BTW - there is a long standing R5xx DRI race, which apparently has been fixed by Egbert. You might want to retest git master. -- 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

Yes, I can - ssh is still working.
I'm now trying to disable DRI.
With DRI disabled, everything works fine. I can switch to a virtual console and back, start new X sessions, etc. I'm a happy cat. I didn't seem to have noticed any slowdown in my XFCE session with DRI disabled (I'm using XFCE with many KDE and Gtk+ apps), but the KDE 4.x desktop itself may be very sluggish (not sure - did not try). What are the implications of DRI disabled?

As the 2600 is a R6xx card, you will have no hardware acceleration when DRI is disabled. Sounds worse than it is (shadowfb is pretty good), however, video might be slow.
Thanks!
And of course 3D applications won't work.
BTW - the R5xx fix in master I mentioned earlier doesn't help in your case.
OK. Please let me know when I can re-enable DRI. And please give more specific instructions with exact versions / dates / etc. of stuff to try to upload (and hopefully make it a stable version that I can download without messing with git). This is still a serious bug.
