Bug#565506: Confirmed: the git branch fixes the issue
Hello Brice, Are there plans to backport these patches into Debian version of the Radeon driver package? I could certainly upload a new package with latest 6.12-branch git snapshot. That would surely solve the issue but the question is how many other issues will be introduced by uploading the newest git snapshot. So far, I can confirm that applying the two patches mentioned earlier to the current package source code seems to remove the segfaulting server issue satisfactorily. Of course, these patches would have to be removed from the Debian package as soon as a new upstream-fixed version is packaged. I do not feel qualified to decide which option is better but regarding this issue, either will do.

We're talking about a stable branch, so this risk should be low. -- Earthling Michel Dänzer |http://www.vmware.com Libre software enthusiast | Debian, X and DRI developer -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to debian-bugs-dist-requ...@lists.debian.org with a subject of unsubscribe.

Michel, Brice, I could certainly upload a new package with latest 6.12-branch git snapshot. That would surely solve the issue but the question is how many other issues will be introduced by uploading the newest git snapshot. We're talking about a stable branch, so this risk should be low. I understand. As I indicated earlier, I do not feel myself qualified to suggest a particular solution - whether just take the two patches or repackage the entire git snapshot. Either of them will obviously remove this issue and deciding whichever is better is up to you.

Hello Michel, I can confirm that by applying the following two patches: http://cgit.freedesktop.org/xorg/driver/xf86-video-ati/commit/?h=6.12-branchid=eab41805c0e6cc6deb7eca9342457b690834d7d2 http://cgit.freedesktop.org/xorg/driver/xf86-video-ati/commit/?h=6.12-branchid=45edca0e9d7b833b9de3037e94f293122c922e42 to the Debian source package xserver-xorg-video-ati 1:6.12.4-2 and compiling it removes the problem filed in this bug report. Are there plans to backport these patches into Debian version of the Radeon driver package?
