Hello,

I could reproduce your X lockups with my Radeon 7500 by disabling TCL
(RADEON_TCL_FORCE_DISABLE=1) which is as close as I can get to your
Radeon VE. I don't use the dri_resume patch. From your telling that it
helped to kill the offending GL app it sounds like the GL app gets stuck
somewhere while holding the lock. It would be helpful to know where
exactly that is. Unfortunately I don't have a second system at hand to
log in remotely from.

Could you reproduce a lockup with a GL app running in a remote debugger
session. When the system is locked up you press Ctrl+C in the debugger,
get backtrace with the "bt" command and send it to the list.

About the flickering when running endgame on the root window, I could
reproduce that too, even with TCL enabled. It looks to me like it is
using a single buffered visual in that case. Curiously this doesn't
happen when xscreensaver runs endgame on the root window.
