Hi, Sorry for the long silence.

By "crashes" do you mean it produced the same symptoms or did something else? > [7] https://bugzilla.kernel.org/show_bug.cgi?id=15969 is the upstream, > closed kernel bug That bug points to v2.6.34-rc7~6^2~11 (drm/radeon/kms: r300 fix CS checker to allow zbuffer-only fastfill, 2010-04-13) as cause and v2.6.35-rc1~18^2~6 (drm/radeon/kms: release AGP bridge at suspend, 2010-05-21) as a fix, so I suspect it's a different bug. Also, because it's been so long, I ought to ask: - can you still reproduce this with recent sid and squeeze kernels? - any ideas, weird symptoms, or workarounds discovered since then? How have you been coping? Hope that helps, Jonathan -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to [email protected] with a subject of "unsubscribe". Trouble? Contact [email protected]
