Public bug reported:
I have 3 LCD panels attached via straight DisplayPort cables (no daisy
chaining, no DVI-DP converters and so on) to the FirePro V7900, which
has 4 DisplayPort sockets.
One of the panels will often not come up when screens are DPMS-suspended
(xset dpms force off, or by the screensaver). The panel will then say
"No signal", but the card still thinks it is enabled and working (as
verified in AMDCCCLE). It is sometimes possible make it work again by
cycling a few times "xset dpms force off" and then pressing a key to
turn screens on. It is always the same panel which has troubles, but it
is port-bound (I tried exchaning the screens physically; it is the port
numbered "3" in amdcccle, the other two being 1 and 2), not screen-
bound. Sometimes the screen also just flickers, showing what it should
only intermittently.
Restarting X fixes the issue (but terminates the session) most the time.
The open-source driver does not suffer from this issue at all.
The fglrx driver has had this issue since as long as I remember (2 or 3
years).
