Bug#603469: xserver-xorg-video-ati: screen randomly goes black with no way to bring it back



i'm sorry but i don't know how to do that kind of upgrade ... will it break the rest of my system? :(

Severity: important

after some random time period my screen goes black and nothing i do short of
rebooting can bring it back ... i have gotten quite good at switching to a new
console and logging in and rebooting without being able to see what i'm doing
btw

the system is still running normally but no display at all

i am using the open source ati driver with a Thinkpad T500 ... KMS is enabled
and the DRM module is loading correctly

[...]

Sounds like a kernel issue, reassigning.  Is this reproducible with
2.6.36 (available in experimental).

Cheers,
Julien
