Hi Sergey, Have you experimented with different AGPMode settings? There are some known issues relating to AGP incompatibilities between the video driver and the host bridge which can cause problems similar to your symptoms. See https://wiki.ubuntu.com/X/Quirks/#ATI AGP Mode Quirk for details. ** Changed in: xserver-xorg-video-ati (Ubuntu) Status: Confirmed = Incomplete -- [PPC] [Hardy, radeon 9800 pro, power g5] totem, vlc hang playing movies using xv extension https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/239564 You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs

Hi Bryce No I did not. Currently it is 4. I will set it to 2 and wait for another hang. -- [PPC] [Hardy, radeon 9800 pro, power g5] totem, vlc hang playing movies using xv extension https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/239564 You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs

Set AGPMode to 2. X hang (screen and kbd). CPU is busy. It took some while to get to the system using ssh and reboot. -- [PPC] [Hardy, radeon 9800 pro, power g5] totem, vlc hang playing movies using xv extension https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/239564 You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs

Additional info (got using ssh): after the screen gets blank, the monitor switches to no signal state, Xorg takes almost all of CPU.

Also, I have _impression_ (but I am not 100% sure) it happens on 2nd and subsequent movies played within same X session. If I make it hang on the first movie, I'll report. -- [PPC] [Hardy, radeon 9800 pro, power g5] totem, vlc hang playing movies using xv extension https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/239564 You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs

So far, intrepid with XAA works ok. I will keep testing.

Hmm, I think I meant Option AccelMethod EXA because XAA is the default. You may also try Option AGPMode 1, since kernel crashes often are related to AGP trouble. -- [PPC] [Hardy, radeon 9800 pro, power g5] totem, vlc hang playing movies using xv extension https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/239564 You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs

I've cherrypicked a recent Xv fix from upstream, and built this deb for testing: http://www.bryceharrington.org/ubuntu/Ati/ xserver-xorg-video-ati_6.9.0+git20080826.a3cc1d7a-2ubuntu4~bwh2_i386.deb I do not think it fixes this issue, since the issue it fixes is display corruption, not a kernel lockup. However it would be helpful to rule it out, if you wouldn't mind testing it? You mentioned the kernel is hung when this happens - how are you determining this? If the kernel is hanging, we probably ought to refile this bug against 'linux' and ask ogasawara to look. Tormod's suggestion of testing AGPMode settings is also a very good recommendation. That option takes values 1, 2, 4, 8. Checking with Option AccelMethod EXA would also be worthwhile, although I don't think we're ready to switch to EXA over XAA as the default for -ati yet, but if it solves the issue it would be good to know. -- [PPC] [Hardy, radeon 9800 pro, power g5] totem, vlc hang playing movies using xv extension https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/239564 You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs

Hi Sergey, Ubuntu does not carry a lot of patches against -ati, so building it against your current install would probably be okay. -- [PPC] [Hardy, radeon 9800 pro, power g5] totem, vlc hang playing movies using xv extension https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/239564 You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
