Bug#570466: it's been a month, is this still a problem?
Le 22/02/11 23:35, Alex Deucher a écrit : It was removed in 2.6.37 as it always uses the old pll algo. However, there were a lot of pll fixes in 2.6.38 that should show up in the stable stream as well. I have been on 2.6.38 for 4 days without a single blackout. This could still be a coincidence (it happened before), but that would be quite a big one. So unless you need other info, I propose that this bug be closed for now, if the blackouts come back I can still reopen it. For information, right now I have kernel 2.6.38 from experimental, mesa 7.10-4 with R600g, libdrm 2.4.23-3, and xorg radeon driver 1:6.14.0-1.

It could still be a coincidence since the problem is completely random, but that would be a huge one... […] I'll try to build that and use it at my next reboot. what's the status with 2.6.37-1-$arch available in sid (possibly with an up-to-date X stack in sid)? Hi, I'm tracking sid for most of the system, and experimental when available for the X stack. Since I reported the bug, the only combination that was potentially free from blackouts was with kernel 2.6.37-rc7. I say potentially because I'm not 100% sure, but I can't remember having had a blackout with that kernel. But I don't have that package anymore, so I can't verify that. I rebooted this morning to 2.6.37-1 and got several blackouts since then. The blackouts tend to disappear when uptime rises, so I don't reboot often :-) By the way, the radeon.new_pll=0 trick has not been possible with 2.6.37. As passing that option while booting used to solve the problem (or more probably hide it), has that option been renamed or is it gone ?

It was removed in 2.6.37 as it always uses the old pll algo. However, there were a lot of pll fixes in 2.6.38 that should show up in the stable stream as well. http://git.kernel.org/?p=linux/kernel/git/torvalds/linux-2.6.git;a=commitdiff;h=a6f9761743bf35b052180f4a8bdae4d2cc0465f6 http://git.kernel.org/?p=linux/kernel/git/torvalds/linux-2.6.git;a=commitdiff;h=51d4bf840a27fe02c883ddc6d9708af056773769 http://git.kernel.org/?p=linux/kernel/git/torvalds/linux-2.6.git;a=commitdiff;h=f523f74eac1897b13c05c88ce6e5de0a7c34578b http://git.kernel.org/?p=linux/kernel/git/torvalds/linux-2.6.git;a=commitdiff;h=619efb105924d8cafa0c1dd9389e9ab506f5425d http://git.kernel.org/?p=linux/kernel/git/torvalds/linux-2.6.git;a=commitdiff;h=a4b40d5d97f5c9ad0b7f4bf2818291ca184bb433 http://git.kernel.org/?p=linux/kernel/git/torvalds/linux-2.6.git;a=commitdiff;h=5b40ddf888398ce4cccbf3b9d0a18d90149ed7ff http://git.kernel.org/?p=linux/kernel/git/torvalds/linux-2.6.git;a=commitdiff;h=9f4283f49f0a96a64c5a45fe56f0f8c942885eef Alex > > Thanks, > -- > Rémi > ___ xorg-driver-ati mailing list xorg-driver-ati@lists.x.org http://lists.x.org/mailman/listinfo/xorg-driver-ati

You can probably find 2.6.37-rc7 packages on snapshot.debian.org if you want to verify that's not affected.

Le 18/10/10 17:30, Alex Deucher a écrit : Does booting with radeon.new_pll=0 help? I cold rebooted with this option shortly after your mail, meaning more than 40 hours ago, and to date I have not experienced the problem at all. This is still no complete proof since I have randomly had long periods (like more than a week) in the past without the problem, but if it's a coincidence it is a strong one. I'll report back if the problem resurfaces. I'll also try the 2.6.32 kernel with this option at my next reboot.
