HW: HP nw8240 with ATI FireGL V5000 PCIE (x700). I have tested this again on 6.06 release (Kubuntu DVD) after clean install.
I can confirm that this problem does not occur with "ati" driver and I think that description should be changed (only fglrx) and task for xserver-xorg-driver-ati package should be Rejected. With fglrx driver, I can say that the problem is only reproducable in 50-70% of the times that xserver is restarted (typically end of session in KDE) with latest 8.25.18 driver. With older drivers I got the hang of the system always (100% reproducable). I have also tried the hint from Francesco (also mentioned in http://www.stanchina.net/~flavio/debian/fglrx-installer.html), but it does not help on my system. ;-( -- Lockup problems with both the free xorg ATI driver and the proprietary fglrx driver, using various ATI cards https://launchpad.net/bugs/30447 -- kubuntu-bugs mailing list [email protected] https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/kubuntu-bugs
