X hangs with blank screen on 2.6.32-rc4 / Intel 915GM
Hi. Trying 2.6.32-rc4 on my Toshiba R200 laptop running Debian Squeeze leads to a blank screen with a flashing cursor in the top left when X starts. If startup in such a way that X isn't automatically started the console is fine, but starting X manually still leads to the hang. The machine seems unresponsive at this point - I can't switch to a normal console and the laptop fan comes on in a manner that suggests the CPU is chugging away. 2.6.31.4 works fine. X versions are as per up-to-date Squeeze - Xorg 7.4 with Intel 2.9.0. I tried without VGA_ARB as that seemed to be the largest related change that might affect X but not the console, but it didn't make a difference. dmesg from non X boot, Kernel config and lspci -vv output at: http://the.earth.li/~noodles/i915-32-rc-x-broken/ I don't really have time at present to get involved in a full bisect, but I can potentially try over the weekend if there's nothing more obvious to try first.

X Hangs with RS690 + 2.6.26
Hi. I've started to see hangs with X on an ATI RS690 with a 2.6.26 kernel. The symptoms are that load average goes up, X stops accepting keypresses or mouse clicks, but the cursor still moves around the screen in response to the mouse being moved. I can't switch to a VT but can ssh in remotely to see that things are still running. I don't seem to be able to kill X but shutdown -r now cleanly reboots. gdb fails to attach - complains about an internal error. strace shows lots of ioctls against the DRM device all returning EBUSY. 2.6.25 appears to work fine. I originally had PAT enabled under 2.6.26 but have seen a patch fixing that go into git, so disabled it for my 2.6.26 kernel to see if that was the issue; no change AFAICT. Enabling DRM debug (echo 1 /sys/module/drm/parameters/debug) gives lots of output from radeon_freelist_get, after the following ioctl is received: Jul 25 10:11:14 meepok kernel: [drm:drm_ioctl] pid=3302, cmd=0xc0406429, nr=0x29 , dev 0xe200, auth=1 and then a returning NULL message. radeon driver is recent git - 1c5858484da4fb1c9bc3ac3b4d7a97863ab99730 but I've seen it with older revisions too. It can take a couple of days for me to hit the problem, so a git bisect could be a lengthy process. If anyone has any suggestions about faster ways to track down the issue I'd like to hear them.
