Hi all, I recently caved and installed flashplugin-nonfree on my squeeze system (once the 64-bit player was re-released).
However, when I watch some (not all) youtube videos, the screens (2) first go black, then (possibly triggered by switching to a text console), get corrupted and start flashing. I see this kind of thing in syslog: Oct 4 21:22:01 zircon kernel: [ 9738.260100] [drm:radeon_fence_wait] *ERROR* fence(ffff880212632700:0x00011A27) 508ms timeout going to reset GPU Oct 4 21:22:01 zircon kernel: [ 9738.260112] radeon 0000:01:00.0: GPU softreset Oct 4 21:22:01 zircon kernel: [ 9738.260119] radeon 0000:01:00.0: R_008010_GRBM_STATUS=0xE57024A4 Oct 4 21:22:01 zircon kernel: [ 9738.260125] radeon 0000:01:00.0: R_008014_GRBM_STATUS2=0x00330302 Oct 4 21:22:01 zircon kernel: [ 9738.260131] radeon 0000:01:00.0: R_000E50_SRBM_STATUS=0x200000C0 Oct 4 21:22:01 zircon kernel: [ 9738.260142] radeon 0000:01:00.0: R_008020_GRBM_SOFT_RESET=0x00007FEE Oct 4 21:22:01 zircon kernel: [ 9738.260198] radeon 0000:01:00.0: R_008020_GRBM_SOFT_RESET=0x00000001 Oct 4 21:22:01 zircon kernel: [ 9738.260262] radeon 0000:01:00.0: R_000E60_SRBM_SOFT_RESET=0x00000402 Oct 4 21:22:01 zircon kernel: [ 9738.284308] hda-intel: IRQ timing workaround is activated for card #0.

The problem persists on all VCs, and what is on the screen is in the wrong place - usually I have to reboot without being able to see what I'm doing, since the command line is off the bottom of the screen. This (because everybody loves cats) is an example video: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=8KswnjMa-MQ I have a: 01:00.0 VGA compatible controller: ATI Technologies Inc RV730XT [Radeon HD 4670] with the open source radeon driver. I'm running 64-bit on an: model name : AMD Phenom(tm) II X4 965 Processor I've seen a few things with similar log messages from searching, but none very recent, and none quite the same. That card, by the way, is the reason I'm running squeeze; it didn't seem to place nicely with lenny (worked ok when I tried lucid, but that's not really my thing - and I didn't try flash). Any ideas? I feel I should file a bug somewhere, but I'm not sure where's appropriate, especially when running proprietary software - though no software should be able to screw up my system that badly.
