Updated to xserver-xorg-video-radeon
1:6.9.0+git20080802.1f3eee36-1ubuntu1. After reboot, the computer
completely freezed upon X startup - no sysrq keys working, I had to
unplug the second monitor (I *think* the old driver did this as well
after I reported this bug, but I'm not sure). Then I went to xorg.conf
and commented out all config parameters in the Device section:
Section "Device"
Identifier "ATI Technologies Inc RS485 [Radeon Xpress 1100 IGP]"
Boardname "radeon"
Busid "PCI:1:5:0"
Driver "radeon"
Screen 0
# Option "DRI" "True"
# Option "AccelMethod" "EXA"
# Option "MergedFB" "off"
EndSection
And it works correctly now! I tried this on the old driver as well and
it didn't help - X guys evidently fixed it :) I'm going to play a bit
with the settings and I'll try to verify which option caused the freeze.
