[Bug 314600] Re: fglrx versions newer than 8.543 cause system hang and panic
Mathais, I do not mean in any way to disparage anyone's efforts in writing drivers for graphics cards. My comment was simply an attempt to summarize the situation with respect to getting a graphics card to work under X based on what I read in the bug reports. I upgraded from an ATI 9600 to an ATI 2400 HD and from a one Viewsonic monitor to a newer Viewsonic monitor. I finally got the vesa driver to work yesterday but still have no 3D acceleration. I started with Linux (Slackware) around 1993. Getting X to work has always been a pain. In spite of much progress in auto detecting cards, monitors etc, I seem to always have a combination of hardware and software that requires hours of effort to make X work and it has recently been getting worse instead of better. I have an ASUS motherboard a Viewsonic monitor and ATI graphics cards, hardly no name manufacturers. Lately, none of the live Linux distributions I've tried work on any of my computers (two desktops, Acer and Compaq laptops and an Apple Macbook Pro running Parallels). In each case the issue is X. -- fglrx versions newer than 8.543 cause system hang and panic https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/314600 You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs

Under openSUSE 11.1 (64bit) it seems that with catalyst 9.5 the problem is gone (I am using an ATI Mobility Radeon HD 3650). The X server starts up just fine without using aticonfig --acpi-services=off. (This also solves a problem with the HDMI output (hot-plug) recognition.) I am sorry, that I cannot test this under Ubuntu at the moment.

Georges, How is this related to the bug? Just for the record, the mobility radeon 3650 mentioned in the initial posting is not one of the older cards not supported anylonger since fglrx 9.4.

So if I understand correctly, many ATI chipsets will no longer be supported by the fglrx driver under Ununtu and some other distributions of Linux. No atempt will be made by AMD to maintain support for even relatively recent chipsets and using the fglrx driver is really just gambling. This means Ubnuntu users need to switch to NVIDIA cards.

After upgrading from 8.10 to 9.04 64 bit on my HP EliteBook 8530p with ATI HD 3650, I can confirm that fglrx 8.600 provided by Jaunty is not working. The machine is hanging with Black Screen of Death. The Xorg.0.log is not reporting anything useful. I was not able to catch any other message from the kernel.

[Bug 314600] Re: fglrx versions newer than 8.543 cause system hang and panic
@fermulator. Indeed, I thought something could be wrong with the latest patch of Ubuntu/8.10 xserver. My card is an X1300. Yes, indeed we are screwed. For several reasons: 1) Staying with fglrx (even if it worked), woudl mean renounce to new releases of Ubuntu/Linux 2) Choosing the ati driver I noticed about 1/2 frames per second with respect to fglrx. It is not bad but the card works half it could. 3) I tried to install Ubuntu/8.04: the problem is still there with 9.3. I tried Ubuntu/8.10 with 9.3, 9.2, 9.1, 8.12, but none of this seems to work. For a moment 9.1 gave me some hope, for a moment only. 4) Having found no way to make fglrx working (of course I haven't tried all the permutations/fixes--just a simple ati driver install), I see no other way that to stick to the ati driver. 5) The ati driver behaves not badly, but worse than fglrx. A possibility is that the legacy drivers will go open source--I really hope so. If not, we need to wait some saint hacker who keeps opening the way to a perfect opensource ati driver. -- fglrx versions newer than 8.543 cause system hang and panic https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/314600 You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs

Apparently this is an incompatibilty from ATI (fglrx) with the latest xserver? The move from Ubuntu 8.04 to 8.10 has a newer version of xserver, which is incompatible with ATI's latest 9.3 Catalyst. The worst part is, that I just noticed that ATI recently announced the following cards as Legacy: ATI Radeon 9500 Series ATI Radeon 9550 Series ATI Radeon 9600 Series ATI Radeon 9700 Series ATI Radeon 9800 Series ATI Radeon X300 Series ATI Radeon X550 Series ATI Radeon X600 Series ATI Radeon X700 Series ATI Radeon X800 Series ATI Radeon X850 Series ATI Radeon X1050 Series ATI Radeon X1300 Series ATI Radeon X1550 Series ATI Radeon X1600 Series ATI Radeon X1650 Series ATI Radeon X1800 Series ATI Radeon X1900 Series ATI Radeon Xpress Series ATI Radeon X1200 Series ATI Radeon X1250 Series ATI Radeon X2100 Series Any of these above cards will not see a newer Linux driver release past Catalyst 9.3.

[Bug 314600] Re: fglrx versions newer than 8.543 cause system hang and panic
I can say the bug is still alive, at least with my X1300 on Ubuntu/8.10 It is interesting that the Xlog file does not show any error at all. But the X hangs just before giving the login gdm window. I tried all the suggestions posted here (included the --acpi- services=off) without success. At the moment, the only way I found to make the X work is to uninstall fglrx and choose the ati driver. It is even more interesting that this bug appears to me only recently, after one of the upgrades. I mean that when I installed Ubuntu/8.10 fglrs worked great. I could use 9.2 ati-driver version. But at some point, for unknown reasons, this hang-behavior started appearing, and now I am stuck. It is depressing not to use the card at its best. Only solution for now for me at the moment is: either to wait for at/ubuntu fix or to reinstall Ubuntu/8.04.

I can confirm this on Mythbuntu Intrepid. Rescue boot xfix works for me but as soon as I use Jockey to load the fglrx driver, the system will hang at the next reboot before loading GDM with a black screen, totally unresponsive system and my monitor telling me it detected an unsupported video mode. If I use Synaptic to roll back to 8.543 or try an older kernel, the same thing happens. I can only use the Radeon driver at this point. Funnily, I did the update weeks ago including reboot and all was fine. This problem appeared out of thin air two nights ago on the running Mythbox. I did not reboot or even log out of X. I have now rolled back the fglrx driver, the kernel module, depmod and even Xorg itself to the versions that came with Intrepid and I still get the same symptoms.

[Bug 314600] Re: fglrx versions newer than 8.543 cause system hang and panic
Hmm, I just tried booting the 64-bit Intrepid (8.04.1) ISO (on a USB drive); the same thing happens there. I believe there must be something wrong with the newer versions of the driver (in this case, the just- released Catalyst 9.1). Some time this weekend, I can make a spare full-install of Intrepid to be sure it's not just a header mismatch issue. I'll also be willing to try the 32-bit version, and grab a stacktrace from each. With a fresh install, the amdpcsb is most likely not a factor. -- fglrx versions newer than 8.543 cause system hang and panic https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/314600 You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
[Bug 314600] Re: fglrx versions newer than 8.543 cause system hang and panic
I experience the very same problems under (k)ubuntu 8.10. The fglrx driver comming with ubuntu is works, but not perfect (e.g. the performance is mediocre). When I install newer version of the driver from the ati website (8.12 or 9.1) I experience a crash of the X server and a blank screen on startup. I experience the same problem on a freshly installed openSUSE 11.1.

I forgot to mention that I use a Mobility Radeon 3650 HD chipset on a HP Elitebook 8530p notebook.

[Bug 314600] Re: fglrx versions newer than 8.543 cause system hang and panic
I had nearly the same problem with a fresh installation of Intrepid and fglrx from the repositories and with the current version available at the amd/ati site. My grafic card is a HD3450. The driver did work immediately after installation by only restarting gdm but did hang after reboot. I didn't much typing so i didn't see any kernel panics. I only tried to get into another console and to kill X which doesn't work and did a hard reset to reboot the machine into rescue mode. I finally managed to get fglrx back into life without reinstalling by overwriting the file /etc/ati/amdpcsdb with /etc/ati/amdpcsdb.default. I traced back my steps after installing the driver and what i did just before the final reboot and found that aticccle caused the problem which i used to position and resize the visible screen image. I was able to reproduce the failure by using aticccle the named way but changing the TV output (just for testing, a TV is connected) from the default setting to PAL-B didn't cause a problem. May be this information fits to this problem (I'm not quite shure) and is of any use. regards M.Baehr -- fglrx versions newer than 8.543 cause system hang and panic https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/314600 You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs

[Bug 314600] Re: fglrx versions newer than 8.543 cause system hang and panic
** Description changed: I am currently using Jaunty with the latest 2.6.28-4-generic #8-Ubuntu x86-64 kernel, and any time I try to use fglrx 8.552 or 8.561 (apt- pinned to Intrepid X server and libdrm2), I get the system hanging at a black screen when I try to start X, followed by a kernel panic after I try pressing a few keys. See attached logfile for a serial-console stacktrace. Interestingly enough, fglrx reports itself as version 8.56.4, which seems a bit mismatched from the package version number 8.561. In addition, using the official ATI installer to buildandinstallpkg Ubuntu/intrepid within the Intrepid LiveCD gives the same result. + + [lspci] + 00:00.0 Host bridge [0600]: Intel Corporation Mobile 4 Series Chipset Memory Controller Hub [8086:2a40] (rev 07) + Subsystem: Hewlett-Packard Company Device [103c:30e7] + 01:00.0 VGA compatible controller [0300]: ATI Technologies Inc Mobility Radeon HD 3650 [1002:9591] + Subsystem: Hewlett-Packard Company Device [103c:3604] -- fglrx versions newer than 8.543 cause system hang and panic https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/314600 You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs

[Bug 314600] Re: fglrx versions newer than 8.543 cause system hang and panic
It is the same root cause though. We await a new build of -fglrx from ATI, and it is not expected to work until then. This is standard whenever we go into a new development version of Ubuntu. After we've updated xserver and/or the kernel, both -fglrx and -nvidia break until we receive new compatible builds. Different people see the symptoms in different ways, but they're all the same issue underneath. -- fglrx versions newer than 8.543 cause system hang and panic https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/314600 You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs

It also happens on the Intrepid LiveCD, though -- don't tell me that the new X server in Jaunty causes that. I've also tried the leaked 8.750 (with INTREPID X server and INTREPID libdrm2!) and it still happens.
