I had the same Problem as described above, on an updated edgy with a 7500 and the radeon driver. But only when I've tried to start a application that uses opengl like glxgears/info when I added load dri to my xorg.conf. I've found a way to circumvent crashes while anyhow using dri module. I've found out that the module GLcore interferes with dri. GLcoere is not needed for opengl and direct rendering so I deactivated it and lo and behold it all works wthout crashes and 3d is working perfectly smooth.

I've had the same problem with hard lock-ups using the ati driver with a Radeon 9700pro on a clean install of dapper. It still froze up when I upgraded to edgy, no difference. The system completely locks up. Nothing ever appears in the logs, but the freezing is consistent.

This really should be fixed. Especially for the server people.

The bug persists in Dapper! Vaio - PCG C1 MHP Radeon Mobility M6 LY Driver ati + dri (standard installation) Will try non-dri and stuff soon. Unfortunately I can't tell with which update this bug appeared, but it was in Sept. 2005. By they way, buttons in gnome show some distortion sometimes, which seems to be related to this bug. Ever since I saw this distortion, my system is freezing every once in a while. The distortion is regular. Black or gray pixels every 10-20 pixels in both axis. I will be more specific later and try to provide a screenshot. This really should be fixed. Especially for the server people. I have a Poweredge server as well and I can't connect to it any more after the last update. This was a Debian sarge to etch update = xf86 to xorg update, so this bug seems to be hitting not just Ubuntu. Anyhow, I would like this to be fixed in Dapper also! I understand long term support differently either! PS.: It took me until now to figure out, that it was not my hardware's fault.

I hate to sound redundant. As much as I love to use Ubuntu, I need to have Dapper functional on my Poweredge server (running ATI). Edgy doesn't provide me the LTS, so I simply can't upgrade. Sure, I can run in vesa, it's a server anyway. But at that point do I really need to run Ubuntu? I hope the fix will applied to Dapper soon.

I have discussed the matter with David Airlie, who maintains the xorg ati driver. He told me that Ubuntu have added quite a number of patches to the ati driver, and it isn't a straightforward matter - for someone who is not familiar with the X code at least (ie. myself) - to find a patch in the x.org git tree and apply it to the Ubuntu version of the driver. I did have a look at both codebases, and I really was way out of my depth. The short story is that I upgraded to 'Edgy' where the issue has been fixed, much as I would have preferred a safe and stable release on my main machine.

but the fix itself is a simple patch that could easily be applied to dapper version of the driver The Xorg 7.1 code looks quite different from the 7.0 code to me. Anyhow, a stable version of the Xorg 7.0 ati driver which includes the memory map fixes has been published upstream (version 6.5.8.1). I would really appreciate it if that could be made available for Ubuntu Dapper. Seriously, I will be willing to make a charitable donation a developer's beer fund. Can I also request that the importance of this bug be raised. This can lock up affected PCs (of which there are many in existence) frequently. I am using Kubuntu Dapper as a platform for KDE development and something in the latest Qt release seems to trigger this lockup very frequently. Switching to EXA accelerations helps - although EXA support seems to have many rough edges in the X.org 7.0, so much so that using it for day to day desktop work can be a little painful. -- system freeze when using ati radeon 7000 with xorg ati driver https://launchpad.net/bugs/16873 -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs

[Bug 16873] Re: system freeze when using ati radeon 7000 with xorg ati driver
Lol, sorry. I was confused. For me, it does not freezy globally with and without your patch since I upgraded to Edgy. It would be interesting to hear from Sylvek if the patch solves the issue or not solves the issue. But when I run glxgears it crashes using the patch and not using the patch. But I think that this is an other problem since my system does not freeze at my everyday work anymore. -- system freeze when using ati radeon 7000 with xorg ati driver https://launchpad.net/bugs/16873 -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs

It's the same for me with a dapper with the last update(and before)... With or without DRI activated it freezes randomly. I've got the feeling with DualHead even more. My record is 4 freezes per hour. Know I work with the vesa Driver which don't freeze.

I have the same problem as Osmo Laitinen with the same platform. Dell Latitude C610 laptop with Radeon Mobility M6 LY [Radeon Mobility 9000]. Ubuntu Dapper freezing randomly, and the only way to escape is to take out the battery and power off. I never had these problems in Breezy, which I used all the time on this laptop. Windows also doesn't have this problem, so it can't be hardware. There is no information in the /var/log files either. It is really frustrating, and makes the whole experience unusable as I keep losing work. I'll try to turn off some of the ati features as suggested here or use the vesa driver. -- system freeze when using ati radeon 7000 with xorg ati driver https://launchpad.net/bugs/16873 -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs

[Bug 16873] Re: system freeze when using ati radeon 7000 with xorg ati driver
I also have this Problem (freeze 10 to 60 seconds after graphical logon) on my Pentium 4 Dual Core, using an SMP kernel in combination with a Radeon 7000, using the ati or radeon driver in my xorg.conf. I recently uninstalled my debian (which I was using for 3 years until last week quite luckily), because I did an upgrade to testing (gaining newer applications) and the error occured after that. Because I thought the testing version was the problem, I switched to Ubuntu 6.06 and everything went fine with the 386 kernel, but having installed the 686 kernel, the freeze came again. Then I installed an arch linux and the error occured once again using gnome, also using twm (instead of gnome with metacity). So, now I conclude that the free radeon/ati driver is the problem. Using vesa drivers is not really an option, because I cannot use vertical refresh rates higher than 60 Hz, what is really an ugly flickering. After turning off the dri option, the radeon driver does well, but dri would be really nice when playing tuxracer or so. ** Changed in: xserver-xorg-driver-ati (Ubuntu) Assignee: (unassigned) = Oliver Storch -- system freeze when using ati radeon 7000 with xorg ati driver https://launchpad.net/bugs/16873 -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs

I have the same problem here. The system is a fresh install of Kubuntu 6.06LTS, patched to the latest available package set. The hardware is a Supermicro P6DBU motherboard with 2xP3/750 and a Sapphire ATI Radeon 7000 video card in the AGP slot. When I use the -386 kernel, everything works fine, but as soon as I switch to -686 and SMP, X always locks up somewhere after KDM coming up. It cannot be a hardware problem, the machine is rock stable. On another partition I have a Debian Sarge with kernel 2.4.32 (hand-compiled) and it runs well with DRI turned on, in SMP mode. -- system freeze when using ati radeon 7000 with xorg ati driver https://launchpad.net/bugs/16873 -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
