Be sure to mention: - steps to reproduce the problem - symptoms and how they differ from the expected result (that should be simple enough in this case :)) - which other versions you tried and the result for each - a link to http://bugs.debian.org/651532 for the full story - any other hints or weird observations Attach: - full dmesg output and Xorg.0.log from booting and reproducing the problem with 3.2-rc4, with the firmware available - full dmesg output and Xorg.0.log from booting 3.2-rc4 without the firmware available, for contrast And please let us know the bug number so we can track it.

Yes, that would help to figure out whether these new crashes are due to the radeon driver as before or some independent bug. Even better would be to try booting without loading the radeon module, by putting blacklist radeon in a file /etc/modprobe.d/oa-blacklist-radeon.conf and booting in recovery mode so X does not get started. -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to debian-bugs-dist-requ...@lists.debian.org with a subject of unsubscribe.

Please test with v3.2-rc4 or later from experimental, and if it still exhibits the problem, send a summary to https://bugs.freedesktop.org/, product DRI, component DRM/Radeon and let us know the bug number so we can track it. In your summary, be sure to include steps to reproduce the trouble, any visible symptoms, /var/log/Xorg.0.log, full dmesg output from booting and reproducing the bug, and a link to http://bugs.debian.org/651532 in case readers want the full story.
