[Bug 290704] Re: [fglrx]Computer freeze when switching user
This is the first good news I've heard on this topic in many moons! I'm running Intrepid 8.10, with local kernel mods (PAPI) that I don't want to mess with at present, so upgrading the kernel at this juncture is not something I want to do, at least in the near-term. If someone can give me some assurance that: 1. The new fglrx driver is likely to work with 8.10, and 2. The crash is likely due to the old fglrx driver, rather than to the linux kernel. then, I'll give the new fglrx code a try. Otherwise, it'll have to wait until I finish my current project and benchmarks... Or, if someone can assure me that the kernel/X upgrades are a definite prerequisite for the fix, then I'll at least know where I'm at with this. Thanks.

Hi Ivos, I totally share your excitement and of course I agree with you. The hardware should be as functional as possible, however it will always have a small number of bugs which has to be fixed. Nothing is bug-free, neither in the Windows' world. And that's the reason to make new drivers and solve old problems. The only confusing thing on this all is, that this bug has been really let forgotten and nobody cares about it (that's my view). The only thing we can do is to remind it to the original developers.

I also share this frustration. Perhaps someone from ATI can give some indication of when/if they plan to repair this problem, If they don't, then we can all remove ATI (and AMD) from our vendor lists.

Just stop using those fraking fglrx drivers. AMD/ATI won't fix them...and ubuntu devs can't do anything for you in this case ! You can complain against AMD/ATI directly ;) Fortunately, AMD/ATI has recently released some documentation of their cards, so the open source drivers (radeon and radeonhd) are pretty well advanced now...and there should be completely usable (3D, hd video decoding) with the future version of ubuntu (the one that'll be shipped with kernel 2.6.32).

Re: [Bug 290704] Re: [fglrx]Computer freeze when switching user
Hi All, I have just installed the drivers, You mentioned. FYI: The previous version of driver, I have used, was the latest version from AMD web. To be sure, here is the list: fglrx-modaliases_8.620-0ubuntu1~jaunty_amd64.deb libamdxvba1_8.620-0ubuntu1~jaunty_amd64.deb xorg-driver-fglrx_8.620-0ubuntu1~jaunty_amd64.deb fglrx-kernel-source_8.620-0ubuntu1~jaunty_amd64.deb fglrx-amdcccle_8.620-0ubuntu1~jaunty_amd64.deb At the first attempt, I was asked to install newer version of libdrm2, so I used this one libdrm2_2.4.11+git20090606.3d4bfe8c-0ubuntu0sarvatt_amd64.deb after that: sudo aticonfig --initial -f restarted PC checked fgl_glxgears and everything worked fine until trying to change user. After that the PC froze immediately, just like before with any other fglrx drive in jaunty or interpid. If you have any other idea, how to solve the problem and be able to change Win to Ubuntu, I will really appreciate it and try to help you if my poor knowledge of linux will not be a problem.

I too have an ATI Radeon HD 2400 Pro and suffer this problem both on Linux Mint 5 (Hardy-based) and 7 (Jaunty-based). This bug is an absolute killer for me because the rest of my family uses my computer too, and trying to tell them not to use switch user when my account is locked because it will break the system is most likely a nonstarter! Using an open-source driver does fix the problem, but removes 3D support which is marginally more important to me then switch-user support. But why are we forced to choose? Is it too much to ask for ATI to give us drivers that let us use ALL the functions of our operating systems? Come on, sort out fglrx! This should definitely be a high-priority bug, as it's ruinous for anyone who uses switch-user, and unfortunately the open source equivalent doesn't yet utilise the full potential of the card (though I live in hope). -- [fglrx]Computer freeze when switching user https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/290704 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
