I filed an upstream bug ( https://bugs.freedesktop.org/show_bug.cgi?id=72192 ) and got the answer that the bug was fixed in Mesa 9.2.2.
Any chance to get these fixes for (K)Ubuntu 13.10 ? ** Bug watch added: freedesktop.org Bugzilla #72192 https://bugs.freedesktop.org/show_bug.cgi?id=72192 -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Desktop Packages, which is subscribed to xserver-xorg-video-ati in Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/1241973 Title: Xorg server crashes during reboot when Modesetting is active on Radeon 7790 Status in “xserver-xorg-video-ati” package in Ubuntu: Incomplete Bug description: Since the upgrade to Kubuntu 13.10 Xorg crashes during startup unless I deactivate Modesetting support in grub.
