Bug#542382: ([drm-modules-source] ATI Mach64 Resets X on Ctrl-Alt-F1)
Google if full of stuff like this for nvidia and intel drivers off and on over the years, and the suggestion that compiz may be the problem. One guess: I get the log in screen several times but eventually, things will hang up. The three LEDs on the keyboard start flashing in unison and then I have to reboot. Smacks of recursion. -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to debian-x-requ...@lists.debian.org with a subject of unsubscribe. Trouble? Contact listmas...@lists.debian.org
Bug#542382: [drm-modules-source] ATI Mach64 Resets X on Ctrl-Alt-F1
Package: drm-modules-source Version: 2.4.11+git+20090630+de1ed01-1 Severity: important --- Please enter the report below this line. --- ATI Mach64 Works OK. However, any attempt to get to another session, i.e. control-alt-F1 to a console, will restart X. This occurs from a KDE4.3 session, KDM login screen, etc. It may sometimes function OK once the desktop is completely painted and quiet. Such a switch can hang X but that occurred with other DRMs as well, not just from the mach64 I compiled from this package. --- System information. --- Architecture: i386 Kernel: Linux 2.6.30-davidb Debian Release: squeeze/sid 990 unstablewww.debian-multimedia.org 990 unstableftp.fr.debian.org 990 unstabledebian.tagancha.org 990 unstabledebian.scribus.net 990 unstabledebian.co.il 650 testing security.debian.org 650 testing debian.co.il 500 stable security.debian.org 500 stable dl.google.com 500 stable debian.co.il 500 oldstable debian.systs.org 500 lenny kde4.debian.net 500 kernel-dists-trunk kernel-archive.buildserver.net 500 intrepidppa.launchpad.net 1 experimentalftp.debian.org --- Package information. --- Depends (Version) | Installed ===-+-=== debhelper(= 7) | 7.3.14 quilt | 0.46-8 make| 3.81-6 git-core| 1:1.6.3.3-2 module-assistant| 0.11.1 Package's Recommends field is empty.

Anyway, your report is lacking a lot of information. Let's start with dmesg, Xorg log and config.
