[Bug 30447] Re: Lockup problems with both the free xorg ATI driver and the proprietary fglrx driver, using various ATI cards

2007-02-03 Thread kyoku
On my acer aspire 1692 (with mobility radeon x700) i have the same
freezing problem when i switch to console or logout/switchuser/etc. I
tried to modify gdm.conf and xorg.conf but no way.

So, like Henrik, if i start in recovery mode and lauch gdm from the
console i don't get the problems.

I'm not sure what conclusions to draw from this - anyone?

And then ssh locks. Output seems the same.
BTW, the above is on dapper because I reverted to it (clean install) on this 
machine, but the problem remained. 
Otherwise, i forgot to mention that on edgy, when in X i have no access to a 
virtual tty (ctrl+alt+Fx), it appears completely garbled, but accepts blind 
input. No such problem in dapper. 
It seems to me that this problem appeared after this famous hi-panic xorg 
dapper upgrade which broke many ubuntus, but now i forgot to test this before 
patching my new dapper install. 
Last thing, in dapper swithching to a console and rebooting from there never 
caused any problems

2006-11-18 Thread Tormod Volden
I have to confess I haven't read all the 127 comments in detail, but
there might be quite a lot of separate issues involved. I would suggest
to open one bug for the ati driver, and one for the fglrx driver.
And get only updated reports from Edgy, with Xorg.0.log and xorg.conf
attached.

To get more debug info, maybe someone can try logging in over ssh and
watch systems log (try sudo cat /proc/kmsg) while the local screen
freezes. Or even try to debug Xorg, see
https://wiki.ubuntu.com/DebuggingProgramCrash

For a workaround to the failing Safe Graphics Mode, see

Have this problem too on a HP nx6125 laptop with an ATI 200m with both ati 
and radeon as the driver.
Logout creates visual garbage on the screen. Switching to a text-console 
creates the garbage too.
System is still responsive though and i can even use the text-console to 
shutdown the laptop (although i don't see what i am typing).

Didn't try fglrx yet but that one is not an option for me (no sleep,
hibernate and setting screen-brightness).

Will provide further information if needed (dmesg, lspci, Xorg.0.log,

2006-10-30 Thread emil_p8
Problem still appearing since Dapper, Edgy doesn't resolve it (either fgrlx or 
ati). On logout, reboot, shutdown i get garbage on the screen, no switch to a 
tty, no kernel magic keys (Alt+sysrq+RSUIBO) However, in Dapper i felt my CRT 
monitor (a 15'', 1280x1024) was very quickly switching frequencies/resolutions 
several times on logout just before the lock (i use it in 1024, but the login 
screen maybe tries 1280 and/or different frequency). 
So i forced it on [EMAIL PROTECTED] only, lock completely disappeared (40+  
reboots). HTH someone. Problem returned with edgy+fgrlx, one in 10+ reboots 
(what makes it very difficult to track down). Video overlay+opengl option 
doesn't resolve it, uncommenting dri makes the 3d acceleration go away.

[A troll follows :-)] I think this is an EXTREMELY serious problem, it's
a deal breaker for ubuntu; linux people on forums, ircs, etc, should be
concerned with such problems instead of trolling like what, anyway,
linux doesn't need at all to be rebooted and such idiocies. (what about
dual boot and the 200W on electricity bill).

So, i'm thinking on reverting on dapper, since edgy took away also my
mic capture (on an onboard sound blaster live 24 bit). BTW, i can only
boot edgy's live cd by quickly going to a console during the splash and
reconfiguring x with vesa, since the option safe mode graphics locks
also.

kubuntu edgy (dist-upgraded from dapper), ati x700. My other PC with a
Radeon7000 works just fine (ati driver since incompatible with fgrlx).

After installing Kubuntu 6.10 I have the problem of not being able to
shut down my two computers using the Turn Off Computer button in the
logout screen. Pressing the latter button leads to the computers login
out of KDE but not correctly shutting down. The machines continue
running, showing a black screen. However, first ending the session with
End current session instead of pressing the Turn Off Computer button
and then shutting down the computer from the KDM login prompt works
fine.

Uncommenting the line TerminateServer=true in /etc/kde3/kdm/kdmrc did
the job for me too. Now I can shut down the computers directly form the
KDE logout screen.

shuting down my kubuntu:
somethimes system hang up, sometimes ending terminal swithed to blue color, 
sometimes to white color, sometimes xserver worked well and I had kubuntu 
splash screen

Thanks to FranceLoc, I add TerminateServer=true to

After few reboots, I can say that the problem is solved. Each time I see

2006-06-28 Thread Mattias Johnsson
The new ATI drivers do not fix the problem, at least for the 64-bit
version of Dapper. I installed the 64-bit version of the fglrx 8.26.18
driver, and I have exactly the same problems as I described in much
greater detail further up this thread: With the fglrx driver I get a
hang every time I shut down, reboot or log in out twice. If I switch to
the ati driver, there is no hang. Switch back to fglrx and the hang
reoccurs.

So the 8.26.18 driver does _not_ fix the bug for the 64-bit version of
Dapper.

2006-06-27 Thread Paul
I'm also getting lockup problems now that I've upgraded from breezy to
dapper, with the accompanying ATI driver upgrade.  My graphics card is:

:01:00.0 VGA compatible controller: ATI Technologies Inc Radeon
Mobility M6 LY

... on a Thinkpad X31.  I am using the free xorg ATI driver.  The bug I
have (which seems to be the same as at least some of the complaints on
the thread) are semi-random full lockups when there are large screen
redraws, particularly things involving fullscreen.

I used to lock up after a few minutes when switching between screens in
metacity or moving around large windows, but now after removing load
dri and load glx and adding option NoAccel I've only been locking
up when I am doing something in fullscreen or switching between
fullscreen and non-fullscreen (my trigger for this is watching a movie
with mplayer as mplayer -vo sdl -ao sdl -framedrop foo.avi or mplayer
-vo sdl -ao esd -framedrop foo.avi and then hitting f to switch
between fullscreen and non-full screen).

There also seems to be a timing element involved---fullscreen will work
when I've just rebooted my machine and logged into gdm, but after a few
minutes fullscreen will lock up with either the current screen, or a set
of black and white dots (often with a small rectangle somewhere on the
screen).

These Radeon Xpress 200 cards seem to be a real problem! I've just
upgraded to Dapper and I'm having the same issue with the same card, on
gdm. Using my old Breezy kernel seems to be a temporary solution, but a
quick check of glxinfo reveals that Direct Rendering is turned off when
I use the Breezy kernel. The open-source ATI and Radeon drivers have
never worked for me.

2006-06-25 Thread Travis B. Hartwell
I use an ATI 9700 Pro in my desktop machine.  I get no lock-ups with the
recent kernels, except when I try to switch users.  Since my wife and I
share the computer, I need to be able to switch users.  I would also
like to have hardware acceleration so I can play around with Google
Earth, Xgl and other things, but the free drivers do not support
accelerated video on the R300 chipset-based cards.

I really would like this to work...not sure if it is an ATI issue or an
Ubuntu issue, but probably it is something with the closed drivers.

I have similar problems with my HP ZV6000 -laptop (Xpress 200M-card).
Sometimes when switching from kdm to a text-console, the screen goes
black and I have to reboot. I have not been able to figure out when this
happens, as sometimes it works, sometimes i doesn't.

Using Ubuntu 6.06, 64-bit.

2006-06-24 Thread Rocco Stanzione
Looking at everyone's hardware on this bug report, all the machines I
can identify seem to be laptops.  Is anyone experiencing this issue on a
non-laptop?  Or does it just appear this way because people only use ATI
cards when they're soldered onto the motherboard?

2006-06-24 Thread djaya2
I get it on a desktop.  RS480, Radeon Xpress 200.  Yes, graphics are
onboard.  Not only do I get the lockups on restarting X; I've also been
unable to fix a random lockup problem.  Downgrading to the 8.24.x driver
and making all the mods (e.g. to xorg.conf) hasn't stopped the random
lockups.

Tried downgrading to Breezy, but can't get the install cd or the live cd
to work.  After 6 months as a linux newbie trying to get various
versions of Ubuntu to work (this lockup problem is only one of many
issues; I've never had a remotely smooth install/setup), I finally got
tired of messing around.  Rather than give up and go back to XP, I
ordered an Nvidia card two days ago.  I only mention this because I may
lose interest in this bug very quickly if my new card works out and the
bug isn't fixed before I run out of time to return the other card.

I have this bug with my desktop, but I don't have ATI card.  I have an
GeForce FX5200 and I use the nvidia-glx driver.  It doesn't crash all
the time, it's random.

2006-06-24 Thread RVieira
I am also using an ATI xpress 200 on an HP dx5150 with AMD X2 4800. I
have a second system that uses Nvidia with out any issue. I have tried
all the fixes on this report and still getting lock ups on log out,
reboot, shutdown, xorg restart, and switching to console. If I use the
ATI opensource drivers everything works fine, it only happens with
fglrx.

2006-06-16 Thread Mattias Johnsson
I've also just installed the latest fglrx driver update that appeared.
It did nothing for my problems. Still causes an instant hang when I
reboot or shutdown, and still causes a hang if I log out twice.
Uninstalling the fglrx driver and returning to the ati driver removes
the problem.
