Hi Sven,
This problem appears to been fixed in the latest kernel image to hit
testing:
ii  linux-image-3.9-1-amd643.9.8-1
amd64Linux 3.9 for 64-bit PCs

I hope I'm not speaking too soon! Fingers crossed!

Cheers!

The 3.8 kernel doesn't fix this. I can't get any output on DVI-I-1
using xrandr:

% xrandr
Screen 0: minimum 320 x 200, current 1280 x 1024, maximum 8192 x 8192
VGA-1 connected 1280x1024+0+0 (normal left inverted right x axis y
axis) 380mm x 300mm
   1280x1024  60.0*+   75.0
   1152x864   75.0
   1024x768   75.1 70.1 60.0
   832x62474.6
   800x60072.2 75.0 60.3

   720x40070.1
DVI-I-1 disconnected (normal left inverted right x axis y axis)
   1280x1024_60.00   59.9

But, there are no system hangs caused by the use of xrandr - it just
fails to work:

% xrandr --output DVI-I-1 --mode 1280x1024_60.00 --left-of VGA-1 --dpi 96
xrandr: Configure crtc 1 failed

I shall file a bug report at freedesktop.org

Cheers!

Kernel folks, this appears to be a regression resulting from the DRM 3.4
backport.

 Package: xserver-xorg-video-nouveau
 Version: 1:1.0.1-5
 Severity: important

 --- Please enter the report below this line. ---

 Since upgrading my (Wheezy) desktop machine a couple of days ago with
 APT, my dual-display setup has stopped working.

I assume that the last upgrade was less than half a year ago?  If so,
it's almost certainly a problem with the latest kernel.

 I run an xrandr script as I login to set up my twin displays:

 # 1280x1024 59.89 Hz (CVT 1.31M4) hsync: 63.67 kHz; pclk: 109.00 MHz
 xrandr --newmode 1280x1024_60.00  109.00  1280 1368 1496 1712  1024
 1027 1034 1063 -hsync +vsync
 xrandr --addmode DVI-I-1 1280x1024_60.00
 xrandr --output VGA-1 --primary --gamma 1.2:1.2:1.05 --brightness 0.95
 --dpi 96
 xrandr --output DVI-I-1 --mode 1280x1024_60.00 --right-of VGA-1
 --gamma 0.75:0.9:0.9 --brightness 0.9 --dpi 96

 Running this script in Gnome or XFCE now causes X to immediately hang,
 and requires I log in to the machine via SSH and reboot it.

 In fluxbox or KDE the script simply doesn't work (but no hang ... well
 fluxbox hangs X when I log out)

 Concerning my secondary display (the one called DVI-I-1 in the
 script): the graphics card has never been able to poll any monitor
 attached for any EDID information (I suspect the DVI-A to SVGA adapter
 I use is not fully wired?). Anyway, I boot with the
 drm_kms_helper.poll=0 in my grub.cfg to prevent constant futile polling.
 I don't know if this has any bearing?

Remove that parameter to find out.

 Thanks for any advice.

Can you confirm that downgrading linux-image-3.2.0-4-amd64 to 3.2.35-2
(available on snapshots.debian.org[1]) fixes the problem?

Cheers,
   Sven

Yep its a red herring: it just makes the 2nd screen flicker every
couple of seconds, if I remove it.
