Bug#551840: xserver-xorg-video-radeon: after upgrade radeon driver crashes often with sig-11

 I think installing the -dbg package to see if the two mystery

-dbg will only help for gdb, see below.

 As a work-around, I have switched the driver to ati which also appears
 to work on this machine... and not crash, the xorg server hasn't crashed 
 in 12 hours after driver switch.
   

ati just loads radeon underneath. So it should crash the same.

 - What information do you need?
   


A full debugging backtrace caught with 'bt full' in gdb after installing
xserver-xorg-core and xserver-xorg-video-radeon-dbg

By the way, you should drop your multiple Screen lines in your config
and just use the RandR 1.2 syntax. See section III of
http://wiki.debian.org/XStrikeForce/HowToRandR12

Bug#514286: RC410 [Radeon Xpress 200]

2009-10-21 Thread David
I am not sure whether it is the same problem, or whether I should file a 
bug report on my own.


My system is an Acer Power P5, onboard graphics card RC410 [Radeon 
Xpress 200], the Testing distribution (Squeeze) installed.


When booting and switching from Text to graphics mode, the machine 
hangs. The same is when, instead of booting, returning from hibernation.


Under kernel 2.6.30-1 and 2.6.30-2 it happens *always*.

When instead this, using kernel 2.6.26-2, it only occurs often, so the 
system is usable after one or two reboots.


When downgrading packages xserver-xorg-video-ati and 
xserver-xorg-video-radeon from Squeeze (that is 1:6.12.3-1) to Lenny,
mouse and keyboard do not work except Ctrl+Alt+F1, F2 and so on; I can 
switch to the console and do everything there.


That means *the machine does not hang* and the bug must be in one of 
these two packages.


David

No, it doesn't mean that at all.

   I failed to notice this one, Michel says It's a known bug which was
   reported upstream a while ago.
 
  See above.
 

All you need to do is to revert a single commit (see upstream bug report, see 
ubuntu bug) to fix this random, but very common crash. This bug affects KDE 
very painfully due to its default settings [1]. It is rather unfortunate, that 
upstream does not seem to care. But then it comes the time for Debian 
maintainers to act.

The bug is a regression which causes Xserver crash (which by itself might mean 
data loss). Therefore, up'ing the severity to grave.

 No, it doesn't mean that at all.

Yeah yeah, depends on what is open and how much unsaved data is there. But if 
this wasn't a regression, grave severity would probably be unjustified even if 
it makes default KDE setup on most radeon cards almost unusable.
