Unfortunately, a backtrace is usually useless for a lockup because all it will show you is the X server and/or the client(s) waiting for the GPU to become idle, which it never does because it's locked up. The problem is finding out what caused it to lock up, and that can be very hard and time consuming. That being said, I too have noticed slightly decreased stability with r200 recently. As this seems to have snuck in gradually, binary searches to try and isolate the CVS changes causing problems might be a good strategy. -- Earthling Michel DÃnzer | Debian (powerpc), X and DRI developer Libre software enthusiast | http://svcs.affero.net/rm.php?r=daenzer ------------------------------------------------------- SF email is sponsored by - The IT Product Guide Read honest & candid reviews on hundreds of IT Products from real users.
