what about an xorg.conf with a minimum configuration, i.e. disable all
extensions:
Section "Module"
Disable "glx"
Disable "dri"
Disable "dri2"
Disable "dbe"
Disable "record"
Disable "extmod"
EndSection
... and then limit the display to moderate resolutions:
Section "Screen"
Identifier "Screen0"
Device "Card0"
Monitor "Monitor0"
SubSection "Display"
Viewport 0 0
Depth 24
Modes "1024x768" "800x600" "640x480"
EndSubSection
EndSection
It is unlikely that the problem is monitor related, but maybe you also put
in Section "Device":
Option "DDC" off
(But then you have to provide HorizSync and VertRefresh values in the
"Monitor" section.)
I've been in the habit of doing this since the DDC quit on these old P991
Trinitrons.
If this works, you can step by step find out which setting kills your GPU.
Very much helped. https://bugzilla.novell.com/show_bug.cgi?id=671140 has the
details. I had actually tried to disable DRI2 before OP, but went about it wrong.
