Powerbook 5,6 15" with Radeon 9600 M10
linux 2.6.12-rc6
Two oddities:
a) sometimes I get a dizzling screen from the console startup,
this is the time when the radeon framebuffer is initialised
I assume. Putting the machine to sleep and wake it up again
seems to help. I think I remember Ben muttering something about
the difficulties with the initialisation code.
I also observed this somethimes after a wakeup. Another sleep
wakeup usually solved the problem.
b) I can get a hard freeze.
Scenario: running Debian Xfree 4.3 on vt7,
starting Xorg 6.2.x from CVS on vt8.
Doing a couple of sleep resumes by closing the lid and reopening.
Now switching between the vtt can cause a hard freeze at some point.
I cannot ping the machine anymore and need to turn it off.
There is no reliable way to reproduce this and b) does not give me
error message either, so I guess this must start happen to Ben so we
will get a fix at some time. ;)
Any ideas what I could do to help somebody fix it?
