I have a system running XFree86 4.3 and a Radeon 7500 VE dual head card. I'm running the heads using Xinerama. I can't get to that box right now, so I can't include the config files. For some reason, this box randomly locks up or reboots. I think it's probably the video card/drivers, but I don't know since I can't make it happen consistently. I'm pretty familiar with Linux, but I don't know much about X.
Are there any known issues with the Radeon drivers locking up in 4.3? I can't find anything that matches this problem in Bugzilla. I tried to update to the CVS drivers built by Alan Hourihane. When I replace the XFree86 and radeon_drv.o files and try to start X, all I get are blank monitors. I can back out of X with ctrl+alt+backspace, but the screens stay off. I usually have to shutdown blindly at this point and switch the file back to get things working again. Can anyone give me an idea of what I'm doing wrong here? Thanks. ********************************************************************** This transmission may contain information that is privileged, confidential and/or exempt from disclosure under applicable law.
