Package: drm-modules-source
Version: 2.3.1~git+20080602+ac4da86-1
Severity: important

Without a dependency on quilt, m-a a-i drm-modules will fail if quilt is 
not installed.

Bug#458415: xserver-xorg-video-ati: wrong VGA load detection on Xpress 200M confuses the window manager

 No, Tim has a real bug caused by the VGA output not being correctly 
 detected. It confuses the window manager by saying that the screen is 
 1152x864 while it is actually smaller. I am retitling the bug accordingly.

Running `dpkg-reconfigure xserver-xorg' resulted in a much smaller
xorg.conf, and the problem went away. It also went away when removing
the VertSync option, because the VGA-0 output then supported a 1024x768
resolution.

The VGA output is still there, but it causes no harm. I suspect that the
problematic patch might actually have the benefit of enabling VGA output
on my laptop by default, so 1024x768 projectors will now just work.

My xorg.conf is managed by dexconf; perhaps trigger a reconfigure of
xorg.conf on upgrade of the ati driver...? But then, a lot of people
have the ati driver installed but use a different one.

So perhaps the only safe solution is to actually detect when VGA devices
are attached.

 So if it's not fixed for you with git20071223.ad3325f6, you should 
 reopen it. Did you read/check what Alex Deucher said there?

Yes, I've been studying the bugs and the mailing list to decide what to
do upstream. Running xrandr --output VGA-0 --off does fix this until X
restarts. I haven't bothered working out the exact xorg.conf changes to
fix this.

The problem arises because VGA output is now enabled by default even if
no external monitor is attached, and for some reason it has a resolution
of 1152x768 (not 1024x768). So, it's as if I'm using an external monitor
that's slightly bigger than the laptop screen, and the mouse carries on
past the right-hand edge of the display.

With metacity, windows still maximise to the correct size (but Fitts'
law is broken), and with simpler window managers (e.g. evilwm) the
windows maximise to the size of the virtual screen.

I suspect that either:
  * the commit that caused this needs to be backed out,
  * the default VGA resolution needs changing (hacky), or
  * external monitor detection for the Xpress cards needs to be
added as soon as possible.

I'll reopen the upstream bug report.

 That's probably the problem here. Not sure you need to reopen the 
 upstream bug there. Alex is well aware that multi-head on Xpress does 
 not work very well yet.

Hmm, oh well, it's reopened now. :/

 What does xrandr report with 1:6.7.198~git20071223.ad3325f6-1 ? The VGA 
 output status should be unknown.

The set of available resolutions is a bit weird.

Bug#458415: xserver-xorg-video-ati: Windows maximise beyond right of screen boundary

2007-12-30 Thread Tim Retout 
Package: xserver-xorg-video-ati
Version: 1:6.7.196-1
Severity: important

Starting with xserver-xorg-video-ati version 1:6.7.196-1, windows are
maximising beyond the right of the screen, making it difficult to hit
scrollbars and so on. Version 1:6.7.195-2 worked correctly. Version
1:6.7.198~git20071223.ad3325f6-1 has not fixed it.

As well as the usual reportbug spam below, here is a diff between the
last working Xorg log and the first broken one. The screen physical size
has been set a bit larger, and 'VGA-0' is now using initial mode
1152x768.

Thanks. :)
