[Bug 366651] Re: [RV530] Screen "static noise" using high resolutions
** Description changed: Since update to Jaunty, I'm experiencing very strange bug when using high resolution (1600x1200). Some kind of static noise (a bit like on TV without antenna) is displayed continuously. As this "snow" is white, it's particularly annoying on black background. My screen is Wacom Cintiq 21UX and can handle this resolution (1600x1200) using this refresh rate (60Hz). Curiously this doesn't occurs with lower resolution as 1280x1024 I switched to using xrandr. No change using XAA or EXA. Remarkable output on Xorg.0.log is : (WW) RADEON(0): DRI init changed memory map, adjusting ... (WW) RADEON(0): MC_FB_LOCATION was: 0xefffe000 is: 0xefffe000 (WW) RADEON(0): MC_AGP_LOCATION was: 0x003f is: 0xffc0 for warning, and (EE) RADEON(0): Unable to reserve offscreen area for back buffer, you might experience screen corruption for errors. No idea if related to my problem. Last log (error) doesn't occurs ou xserver startup, but while using. Seems related to OpenGL context creation.

[Bug 366651] Re: [RV530] Screen "static noise" using high resolutions
I can confirm this exact same behaviour. White static on a 1920x1200 resolution, doesn't happen in 1680x1050, 1600x1200 or below. Doesn't happen either on Intrepid + fglrx, or Windows XP. Since I also have the "flickering" bug (sometimes, screen switches off for one second), I tested if the CPU frequency changes anything, but it doesn't. Flickering is not noticeable on a white background, and barely noticeable on a black one. Also, it isn't a heat problem, since it also happens right after a cold boot. jMax's description of this phenomenon as "static" is quite good. It consists of lines that are always horizontal and seem to be one pixel in width and varying between ~5 to ~50 pixels in length. They are white, although some seem to be reddish. It is a little hard to make out, since they disappear almost instantly. They are not related to any windows or other area of the screen. My Xorg.0.log contains the same warnings as jMax's, but not the error.

Reading https://bugs.freedesktop.org/show_bug.cgi?id=21553, I found the problem is related to "coherent mode" (What's that ?!?). Command line below solve the problem. xrandr --output DVI-0 --set coherent_mode 0 I can enjoy again my 1600x1200 screen ! Does anybody knows how to make coherent mode disabled as default ?

[Bug 366651] Re: [RV530] Screen "static noise" using high resolutions
I can confirm this exact same behaviour. White static on a 1920x1200 resolution, doesn't happen in 1680x1050, 1600x1200 or below. Doesn't happen either on Intrepid + fglrx, or Windows XP. Since I also have the "flickering" bug (sometimes, screen switches off for one second), I tested if the CPU frequency changes anything, but it doesn't. Flickering is not noticeable on a white background, and barely noticeable on a black one. Also, it isn't a heat problem, since it also happens right after a cold boot. jMax's description of this phenomenon as "static" is quite good. It consists of lines that are always horizontal and seem to be one pixel in width and varying between ~5 to ~50 pixels in length. They are white, although some seem to be reddish. It is a little hard to make out, since they disappear almost instantly. They are not related to any windows or other area of the screen. My Xorg.0.log contains the same warnings as jMax's, but not the error.

Reading https://bugs.freedesktop.org/show_bug.cgi?id=21553, I found the problem is related to "coherent mode" (What's that ?!?). Command line below solve the problem. xrandr --output DVI-0 --set coherent_mode 0 I can enjoy again my 1600x1200 screen ! Does anybody knows how to make coherent mode disabled as default ? I can't found anything related to this reading man ati...

[Bug 366651] Re: [RV530] Screen "static noise" using high resolutions
I can confirm this exact same behaviour. White static on a 1920x1200 resolution, doesn't happen in 1680x1050, 1600x1200 or below. Doesn't happen either on Intrepid + fglrx, or Windows XP. Since I also have the "flickering" bug (sometimes, screen switches off for one second), I tested if the CPU frequency changes anything, but it doesn't. Flickering is not noticeable on a white background, and barely noticeable on a black one. Also, it isn't a heat problem, since it also happens right after a cold boot. jMax's description of this phenomenon as "static" is quite good. It consists of lines that are always horizontal and seem to be one pixel in width and varying between ~5 to ~50 pixels in length. They are white, although some seem to be reddish. It is a little hard to make out, since they disappear almost instantly. They are not related to any windows or other area of the screen. My Xorg.0.log contains the same warnings as jMax's, but not the error.

[Bug 366651] Re: [RV530] Screen "static noise" using high resolutions
** Description changed: Since update to Jaunty, I'm experiencing very strange bug when using high resolution (1600x1200). Some kind of static noise (a bit like on TV without antenna) is displayed continuously. As this "snow" is white, it's particularly annoying on black background. My screen is Wacom Cintiq 21UX and can handle this resolution (1600x1200) using this refresh rate (60Hz). Curiously this doesn't occurs with lower resolution as 1280x1024 I switched to using xrandr. No change using XAA or EXA. Remarkable output on Xorg.0.log is : (WW) RADEON(0): DRI init changed memory map, adjusting ... (WW) RADEON(0): MC_FB_LOCATION was: 0xefffe000 is: 0xefffe000 (WW) RADEON(0): MC_AGP_LOCATION was: 0x003f is: 0xffc0 for warning, and (EE) RADEON(0): Unable to reserve offscreen area for back buffer, you might experience screen corruption for errors. No idea if related to my problem. Last log (error) doesn't occurs ou xserver startup, but while using. Seems related to OpenGL context creation.

[Bug 366651] Re: [RV530] Screen "static noise" using high resolutions
The patch that fixes this according to the upstream bug, is already present in Karmic. According to the git changelogs, this patch caused a regression (subsequently fixed with other changes) so is probably too high of risk for backporting to Jaunty. However once a new official -ati is released, if I have time I'll try adding it to the x-updates ppa. ** Changed in: xserver-xorg-video-ati (Ubuntu) Status: Confirmed => Fix Released -- [RV530] Screen "static noise" using high resolutions https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/366651 You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
