--- Begin Message ---Package: xserver-xorg-video-ati Version: 1:6.5.7.3-3 Severity: important The current version of the "ati" driver causes my Thinkpad T42 to freeze a few minutes after X is started. Changing to the "vesa" driver causes the freezes to stop. Commenting out all loaded modules from the "Module" section of xorg.conf causes the freeze to take longer to happen, but it does not prevent it. Likewise, turning off hardware acceleration with the "NoAccel" option does not prevent the freezes (though I do not recall whether NoAccel made the freeze take longer to happen). The chipset is: (--) RADEON(0): Chipset: "ATI FireGL Mobility T2 (M10) NT (AGP)" (ChipID = 0x4e54) For now I have used snapshot.debian.net to downgrade to 6.8.2.dfsg.1-6 and all is well again. I have been having this problem for much or all of 2006. I believe 6.9.x already had the problem, and no update through 1:6.5.7.3-3 has fixed it. The following thread describes the same problem I am seeing, but unfortunately with no resolution reached: http://hardware.mcse.ms/archive42-2006-1-276052.html Here is my xorg.conf: # xorg.conf.dpkg-new (Xorg X Window System server configuration file) # # This file was generated by dexconf, the Debian X Configuration tool, using # values from the debconf database. # # Edit this file with caution, and see the xorg.conf.dpkg-new manual page. # (Type "man xorg.conf.dpkg-new" at the shell prompt.) # # This file is automatically updated on xserver-xorg package upgrades *only* # if it has not been modified since the last upgrade of the xserver-xorg # package. # # If you have edited this file but would like it to be automatically updated # again, run the following commands as root: # # cp /etc/X11/xorg.conf.dpkg-new /etc/X11/xorg.conf.dpkg-new.custom # md5sum /etc/X11/xorg.conf.dpkg-new >/var/lib/xfree86/xorg.conf.dpkg-new.md5sum # dpkg-reconfigure xserver-xorg Section "Files" FontPath "unix/:7101" FontPath "unix/:7100" # if the local font server has problems, we can fall back on these FontPath "/usr/lib/X11/fonts/misc" FontPath "/usr/lib/X11/fonts/cyrillic" FontPath "/usr/lib/X11/fonts/100dpi/:unscaled" FontPath "/usr/lib/X11/fonts/75dpi/:unscaled" FontPath "/usr/lib/X11/fonts/Type1" FontPath "/usr/lib/X11/fonts/CID" FontPath "/usr/lib/X11/fonts/100dpi" FontPath "/usr/lib/X11/fonts/75dpi" EndSection Section "Module" Load "bitmap" Load "dbe" Load "ddc" Load "dri" Load "extmod" Load "freetype" Load "glx" Load "int10" Load "record" Load "type1" Load "v4l" Load "vbe" EndSection Section "InputDevice" Identifier "Generic Keyboard" Driver "keyboard" Option "CoreKeyboard" Option "XkbRules" "xorg" Option "XkbModel" "pc105" Option "XkbLayout" "dvorak" EndSection Section "InputDevice" Identifier "Configured Mouse" Driver "mouse" Option "CorePointer" Option "Device" "/dev/input/mice" Option "Protocol" "ExplorerPS/2" Option "Emulate3Buttons" "true" Option "ZAxisMapping" "4 5" EndSection Section "InputDevice" Identifier "Synaptics Touchpad" Driver "synaptics" Option "SendCoreEvents" "true" Option "Device" "/dev/psaux" Option "Protocol" "auto-dev" Option "HorizScrollDelta" "0" EndSection Section "Device" Identifier "ATI" Driver "ati" BusID "PCI:1:0:0" Option "DynamicClocks" "on" Option "UseFBDev" "false" Option "MonitorLayout" "LVDS, CRT" #Option "NoAccel" "true" # reasonable guesses at limits....
