Hi everyone, I have a Radeon card (2100 part of the RS740 AMD chipset) and it seems I have some issues with it in the 5.0 release of Trisquel. When kernel modesetting is enabled I can't switch to virtual consoles (Ctrl+Alt +F1..F7). All I see is black screen and after a while the monitor switches off. I can't switch back to Xorg via the keyboard. The only working option is switching the console over ssh with "sudo chvt 7".
There is some problem with Totem in fullscreen with KMS enables as well. It becomes unresponsive and very hard to get out of fullscreen. The time line and the exit button are not responding, if visible at all. This happens almost randomly. With KMS turned off (modest=0 in /etc/modprobe.d/radeon.conf) these problems are not occurring. Now most of the time everything is fine. Sometimes windows widgets disappear and I see either random lines with similar color, renderings from previous windows (or whatever data was displayed there) or just horizontally changing colors - red, green yellow etc. It happens anywhere on the screen. Moving windows around sometimes refreshes the problem areas. It seems to me this is a memory leak. I think this happened with and without KMS. I know this begs to be reported as a bug, but besides the information I've shared, which is not helpful at all, I can't say anything else that could at least point in the right direction of the problem. Anybody with similar problems?
