2012-05-22 Thread Xavier Manach
Hi.

  Thanks for explain me this again :)
This time, I probably understood.

  I will try two new install for compare,
on with the downgrade with 1.11 with proprietary driver and other with free
driver radeon.

  Sorry, for be so noob ;)

A++ Xav.

Upgrade Xorg in testing with driver ATI proprietary : segment fault in xorg.

2012-05-21 Thread Xavier Manach
Hi X-Mens.

  My Hardware :
Laptop Aspire 5742G with AMD Radeon HD 6300 Series (1002:68e4)

  I made an wheezy install there is 5 days (2012/05/17).
  I installed ATI driver with the last ATI proprietary.

I use this methodology :

aptitude install build-essential linux-headers-$(uname -r) module-assistant
./amd-driver-installer-12-4-x86.x86_64.run

  It's worked very well five days.

  I made an upgrade today (with an xorg upgrade).
After restart the laptop, I have a segment fault in xorg.
  I made a new install of wheezy, and after install ati driver, I have the
same segment fault.

Here the Xorg.ZZZ.log.old :

  Can I help more for debug ?
  Have you a solution for me ?
