[Bug 757467] Re: Radeon 7000VE (rv100) fatal error during GPU init
T Tran, thank you for reporting this bug and helping make Ubuntu better. This bug was reported a while ago and there hasn't been any activity in it recently. We were wondering if this is still an issue? Can you try with the latest development release of Ubuntu? ISO CD images are available from http://cdimage.ubuntu.com/releases/ . If it remains an issue, could you run the following command from a Terminal (Applications->Accessories->Terminal). It will automatically gather and attach updated debug information to this report. apport-collect -p linux Also, if you could test the latest upstream kernel available that would be great. It will allow additional upstream developers to examine the issue. Refer to https://wiki.ubuntu.com/KernelMainlineBuilds . Once you've tested the upstream kernel, please remove the 'needs-upstream-testing' tag. This can be done by clicking on the yellow pencil icon next to the tag located at the bottom of the bug description and deleting the 'needs-upstream-testing' text. Please let us know your results. Thanks in advance. ** Changed in: linux (Ubuntu) Status: Confirmed => Incomplete -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/757467 Title: Radeon 7000VE (rv100) fatal error during GPU init To manage notifications about this bug go to: https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/linux/+bug/757467/+subscriptions -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs

Yes. I still get dmesg error "radeon: probe of :01:00.0 failed with error -22" and Xorg.0.log warning "(WW) RADEON(0): Direct rendering disabled". I've been running with kms off to avoid the above error & warning, but I'm guessing this just hides the actual error, which is occuring elsewhere. -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/757467 Title: Radeon 7000VE (rv100) fatal error during GPU init To manage notifications about this bug go to: https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/linux/+bug/757467/+subscriptions -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs

[Bug 757467] Re: Radeon 7000VE (rv100) fatal error during GPU init
It means there's a race condition. There are two drivers, one in X, one in the kernel. He's suggesting the kernel driver is taking so long to load that the X driver is going ahead and loading without it. When the X driver does this, it does not enable kms support (since by definition kms depends on the kernel driver). My guess had been that maybe the presence of the vesafb driver (which is a generic kernel video driver) was delaying loading of the radeon kernel driver. But your test indicates it is not so (or at least not sufficient). I'm afraid at this point I'm out of my depth, since it appears to be an issue with how the kernel and low level plumbing are enabling the kernel modules, not anything X is doing wrong. Either X loading needs to be delayed or the kernel module needs loaded faster. Anyway, so I'm going to punt this to the kernel team; please follow up with them. ** Package changed: xserver-xorg-video-ati (Ubuntu) => linux (Ubuntu) ** Changed in: linux (Ubuntu) Status: Incomplete => New -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/757467 Title: Radeon 7000VE (rv100) fatal error during GPU init -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs

For kms, the drm needs to be loaded before X starts."

Ah, looks like that cleaned up the error. Did it boot the radeon driver properly and get you to a working session after that?

Thanks Alex. Does this mean that Natty grub load sequence needs to be sorted out? I'm not very experienced with linux, and I haven't had the time to play with the grub sequence. I did notice that /etc/grub/grub.cfg calls things like gfxterm, which presumably is some sort of X related process? Maybe that is causing X to be loaded first.
