Powerbook 5,6 15" with Radeon 9600 M10 linux 2.6.12-rc6 Two oddities: a) sometimes I get a dizzling screen from the console startup, this is the time when the radeon framebuffer is initialised I assume. Putting the machine to sleep and wake it up again seems to help. I think I remember Ben muttering something about the difficulties with the initialisation code. I also observed this somethimes after a wakeup. Another sleep wakeup usually solved the problem. b) I can get a hard freeze. Scenario: running Debian Xfree 4.3 on vt7, starting Xorg 6.2.x from CVS on vt8. Doing a couple of sleep resumes by closing the lid and reopening. Now switching between the vtt can cause a hard freeze at some point. I cannot ping the machine anymore and need to turn it off. There is no reliable way to reproduce this and b) does not give me error message either, so I guess this must start happen to Ben so we will get a fix at some time. ;) Any ideas what I could do to help somebody fix it?
