--- Comment #7 from Bryce Harrington <[email protected]> 2011-04-05 14:44:06 PDT --- Others who are reporting as having the same bug indicate that there is a bit of a race condition and sometimes the system loads with the radeon drm driver, sometimes with intel: >From Johan Fornander: """ I have a theory... Maybe there is a race condition between the intel and ati driver involved here? My notebook starts up in two seemingly random configurations, or three including the radeon crash: 1. X server is on VT8 -> unable to unload radeon module because it is in use (by some framebuffer I guess). I am also unable to switch to consoles VT1-7. If I use vga_switcheroo to switch to integrated gpu in this mode then radeon crashes. 2. X server is on VT7 -> I can unload the radeon module and use the consoles VT1-6. vga_switcheroo works and I can also use acpi calls to turn off the gpu. 3. The radeon driver crashes. Forcing reboot through RSEIUB. This makes it difficult to control the temperature since I cannot know if the radeon module is in use or not (i.e. I might or might not be able to use the vga_switcheroo, or unload the module and use a specific acpi call to shut of the gpu).
