I'm running an ATI 3D Rage Pro 215GP PCI card on a i386.  Works fine on kernel 
2.6.16 and Xorg 7.1.1.  It's not the same card as yours, so guess it doesn't 
really help with anything, but here are the relevant Xorg lines:

I also have the same in my PWS500au.  Its running fine under kernel 2.6.16 and 
Xorg 7.0.0.  Here are the relevant lines for it:

Strange. I have UP1100 motherboard with  ATI Technologies Inc RV280
[Radeon 9200 PRO] controller and total lock up still after unstable was
going for Xorg instead of XFree86. Kernel is self compiled 2.16.18 for
nautilus. The hardware setup is almost the same and you have no
problems.. ?

Anyway the machine has been unusable with X almost 5 moths now.. :(

Ok, I'll try that sometime soon.


Pressing the (soft) power button causes a clean shutdown after which it
powers down, so it's not completely dead.


An HPMC means the box is dead from an OS point of view.
We can't access the IO subsystem after an HPMC and the
OS gets control but only attempts dump a tombstone to the
console (which might fail too).

Can you clarify what you mean by clean shutdown?


Oops, I was looking at the wrong part of /var/log/messages. :( No clean 
shutdown. It just takes about half a minute before turning off.



...

I'm currently using the fbdev driver with the G200. I can't vouch for
it's stability, but it seems to be working.


wow! coool!


Yes. Um, for people on debian-alpha: I guess I should have explicitly said 
I was crossposting to avoid confusion. The fbdev driver with G200 is 
working on hppa now. (I only tried fbdev with the radeon on alpha, and 
that didn't work.)

For the one or two of us reading this on debian-alpha :-), I knew you
were writing about the hppa case...  Nevertheless, it remains
encouraging that fbdev is working for someone running a less popular
architecture (than x86).  Might have to dig up a Matrox somewhere and 
give that a try.  (Still not giving up on the radeon, though...)

To paraphrase, the chassis codes mean:
o Someone accessed an address that didn't respond.
o CPU timed out the transaction.
o HPMC == High Priority machince Check. Try ser pim at
  the firmware prompt to see which address it tried to reference.

 Pressing the (soft) power button causes a clean shutdown after which it 
 powers down, so it's not completely dead.

An HPMC means the box is dead from an OS point of view.
We can't access the IO subsystem after an HPMC and the
OS gets control but only attempts dump a tombstone to the
console (which might fail too).

Can you clarify what you mean by clean shutdown?

The good (I think) news is that the TGA2 works fine with the latest
Xorg 7.1 and dependent packages from the unstable tree, i.e., I think
the reported ATI and MGA problems are probably driver issues.


It seems the same or similar problems happen on both hppa and alpha.

I just tested a Radeon 9250, a Matrox G200, and a Millenium II on an HP 
c3700. With the radeon and mga drivers, the screen will go black, and the 
box will stop responding to pings or keyboard. (On alpha I could sometimes 
ssh in.)


I noticed shortly after the screen went black, the LCD would print
FLT CBF0 (followed by 6.17-pa6 which was already there before)

Then it will start cycling between:
FLT 500B SYS BD bus timeout
FLT CB74 SYS BD bad os HPMC cksm
FLT CBFC SYS BD OS HPMC br err
FLT CBF0 SYS BD HPMC initiated

This is with xorg 7.1.0-1, but on alpha the same happens with 7.0. (I 
haven't tested 7.0 on hppa.)


Can anyone else with an mga or radeon check whether it is in fact broken 
on hppa?

This is encouraging.

Haven't tried fbdev on Alpha with 7.1, but it was definitely broken with
an ATI card and 7.0.  Usually (but not always) it was broken *less* than
for the ati driver case in that I could at least switch back to a virtual
console tty and stop X11 without locking up the machine.  Somewhere near
7.0.23 with a 2.6.18-rcX kernel, fbdev would lock the machine solid.
