AlainKnaff, this bug was reported a while ago and there hasn't been any
activity in it recently. We were wondering if this is still an issue? If
so, could you please test for this with the latest development release
of Ubuntu? ISO images are available from http://cdimage.ubuntu.com
/daily-live/current/ .

If it remains an issue, could you please run the following command in
the development release from a Terminal
(Applications->Accessories->Terminal), as it will automatically gather
and attach updated debug information to this report:

apport-collect -p xserver-xorg-video-ati REPLACE-WITH-BUG-NUMBER

Please note, given that the information from the prior release is
already available, doing this on a release prior to the development one
would not be helpful.

Thank you for your understanding.

Title:
  radeon driver "randomly" blanks screen on DVI

Status in “xserver-xorg-video-ati” package in Ubuntu:
  Incomplete

Bug description:
  The radeon driver randomly blanks the screen (connected via DVI),
  especially while working with Thunderbird. If it happens, it usually
  happens several times in a row, and then it is good again for a day or
  so.

  I do have Option "DisplayPriority" "HIGH" in my xorg.conf, and
  radeon.modeset=0 in my boot params.

  These settings seems to have helped somewhat (before I had them, the
  incident occured much more frequently), but didn't fix it completely.

  
  My card is a Radeon RS690 (X1200 Series):

  > lspci | fgrep VGA
  01:05.0 VGA compatible controller: ATI Technologies Inc RS690 [Radeon X1200 
Series]

  
  3. What I expect to happen:

  The screen should not blank while I'm actively working with the
  computer

  
  4. What does happen:

  The screen blanks, even while I am active
