 Hi Stefano,
 
 any chance you could give 2.6.37-1-$arch (available in unstable) a
 try? Possibly without setting this option, to see whether there's
 still something needed on the kernel side.
 
 KiBi.

Hello,

I just tried linux-image-2.6.38-2-686 from testing.

Using only options radeon modeset=1 in /etc/modprobe.d/radeon-kms.conf 
I still get problems

Thanks,

 Sorry for the late response but I've been really busy!

 I have tried some configurations and so far it seems that 

 agpmode=1

 works pretty well.
   

Ok good to know. I am retitling the bug accordingly (but it should
likely be reassigned to the kernel too). Maybe the upstream devs will
add a quirk for your system.

 I have also tried to run kernel 2.6.34 from experimental to solve another 
 issue 
 (Bug#585822), but such kernel brakes compositing (KDE4 tells me that 
 compositing is not available).

 However after doing that there's a video game (aquaria, www.bit-
 blot.com/aquaria/) that does not work anymore, and I have no idea of what 
 I've done to do that! In particular the error is:

 drmRadeonCmdBuffer: -12. Kernel failed to parse or rejected command 
 stream. See dmesg for more info.

 and dmesg says:

 [drm:radeon_cs_ioctl] *ERROR* Failed to parse relocation -12!

 What's weird is that I tried the old radeon configuration and reinstalled the 
 game as well as the configuration files for the game itself but nothing 
 happened!

 ...not that I want you to debug that, it's just to explain the error. ;-)
   

You might want to open a new bug report about this one.

 Hi,
 
 yeah, the post is old, but my laptop is even older, and so its graphic card!
 
 Anyway, I am going to try if loading the module later will work for me.
 
 Also, I just realized that in my bug report I mistakenly wrote that I
 commented the last line of my radeon-kms.conf (which would be 
 options radeon dynclks=1).
 
 That's not correct, I commented options radeon agpmode=-1. That can
 be deducted from the title of the bug report, but I wanted to point it
 out.
 
  After upgrading to kernel 2.6.32-5-686 I have tried to enable the AGP mode 
  by
  commenting the last line of the file. I noticed a huge improvement of the
  performances of my laptop, however, it becomes really unstable and
  eventually it locks up with a black screen and I have to power it off.
 
  Did you try other values for agpmode ? You can try 1, 2, 4 and 8. If one
  helps, upstream may add a quirk for your machine.
 
 When I leave the driver free to decide the AGP value, it picks up 4,
 which is the right one. I also tried with 2 with no success.
 
 I am going to try 1 and 8, and then put 4 explicitly in
 radeon-kms.conf when I have some free time.
 
 I'll let you know what happens.

Ping ?

Brice

 Hello,

 it is known that when using the radeon module with modesetting there may
 be some problems: http://bgoglin.livejournal.com/19346.html
   

This post is very old, not sure it still matters old, but it's good you
found a workaround :)~$ cat /etc/modprobe.d/radeon-kms.conf

 options radeon modeset=1
 options radeon agpmode=-1
 options radeon dynclks=1

 After upgrading to kernel 2.6.32-5-686 I have tried to enable the AGP mode by 
 commenting the last line of the file. I noticed a huge improvement of the 
 performances of my laptop, however, it becomes really unstable and
