Summary: [KMS] radeon not working reliable with X1300
Product: Drivers
Version: 2.5
Kernel Version: 2.6.35
Platform: All
OS/Version: Linux
Tree: Mainline
Status: NEW
Severity: normal
Priority: P1
Component: Video(DRI - non Intel)
AssignedTo: drivers_video-...@kernel-bugs.osdl.org
ReportedBy: tk...@fachschaft.imn.htwk-leipzig.de
Regression: No
Hi,
got a
01:00.0 VGA compatible controller: ATI Technologies Inc RV516 [Radeon
X1300/X1550 Series]
card and tried to use KMS and radeon since its in the mainline tree but got no
luck yet.
Resolution change does work and X is working too but there are some "bugs"
which makes it unusable.
1. Console/Screen does blank from time to time - i can switch to first tty and
wait and seeing the screen going blank for seconds and reappearing few seconds
later. It does this a few times per minute.
Using X it appears to be not that often but still happening.
2. In X Screen does have some black lines running over the screen every time -
reading some text on white background is really hard because of these black
lines running through the screen everytime, hope you know what i mean - can't
make a screenshot - this may not be related to KMS at all and i have to talk to
Xorg guys for this error - please tell me - don't know where to report this one
best.
The only configuration which is usable in terms of you can do your work >1 hour
is to disable KMS and using the "old" radeonhd Xorg driver - which does work
fine and without those "glitches".
Any help or information i can provide to make radeon "work" like radeonhd?
