[Ubuntu-x-swat] [Bug 987153] Re: Xorg freeze
I updated to Fedora 19, using xorg 1.14.2 and ATI catalyst driver 13.6 beta, and this problem finally seems to be solved on my hardware. The release notes for the driver do indicate a bunch of fixes related to power management. Can anyone else confirm? -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu-X, which is subscribed to fglrx-installer in Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/987153 Title: Xorg freeze To manage notifications about this bug go to: https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/fglrx-installer/+bug/987153/+subscriptions ___ Mailing list: https://launchpad.net/~ubuntu-x-swat Post to : ubuntu-x-swat@lists.launchpad.net Unsubscribe : https://launchpad.net/~ubuntu-x-swat More help : https://help.launchpad.net/ListHelp

[Ubuntu-x-swat] [Bug 987153] Re: Xorg freeze
I'm on a desktop so I suspect the only time the power saving stuff kicks in is when the monitors go to sleep... I'm guessing that for a laptop the driver may try to manage the power consumption more aggressively, and so cause this to happen more often. -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu-X, which is subscribed to fglrx-installer in Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/987153 Title: Xorg freeze To manage notifications about this bug go to: https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/fglrx-installer/+bug/987153/+subscriptions ___ Mailing list: https://launchpad.net/~ubuntu-x-swat Post to : ubuntu-x-swat@lists.launchpad.net Unsubscribe : https://launchpad.net/~ubuntu-x-swat More help : https://help.launchpad.net/ListHelp
[Ubuntu-x-swat] [Bug 987153] Re: Xorg freeze
For the problem I am having, I don't have any issue if my monitors do not go to sleep i.e. I turn off the KDE option to turn off the monitors when the system is idle (I think KDE is turning off DPMS in the background). I also do not have any issue if I turn off KDE desktop effects before the monitors go to sleep, so it appears to be something related to Xorg being in a mode that uses the 3D part of the video driver i.e. OpenGL etc. One last point -- I think you are right about the root cause being the video card going into power save mode, since if the monitors go to sleep but I wake them up within a few seconds, there is no issue. It is only if I wake them up after some time that the EQ overflows. Does anyone know how to configure the ATI driver to not put the video card in powersave mode, even if the monitors are off? -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu-X, which is subscribed to fglrx-installer in Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/987153 Title: Xorg freeze To manage notifications about this bug go to: https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/fglrx-installer/+bug/987153/+subscriptions ___ Mailing list: https://launchpad.net/~ubuntu-x-swat Post to : ubuntu-x-swat@lists.launchpad.net Unsubscribe : https://launchpad.net/~ubuntu-x-swat More help : https://help.launchpad.net/ListHelp

I have the same issue with the propietary ATI driver on Fedora 16.

Slight correction on the above... the report isn't for ATI as its an unofficial bug tracker... but its a common place to aggregate information about the ATI driver. -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu-X, which is subscribed to fglrx-installer in Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/987153 Title: Xorg freeze To manage notifications about this bug go to: https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/fglrx-installer/+bug/987153/+subscriptions ___ Mailing list: https://launchpad.net/~ubuntu-x-swat Post to : ubuntu-x-swat@lists.launchpad.net Unsubscribe : https://launchpad.net/~ubuntu-x-swat More help : https://help.launchpad.net/ListHelp
