Bug#243575: Still only DVI output for every 2nd run (xfree 4.3.0.dsfg.1-1)
Hi,
I'm using testing + xfree86 and kde from unstable. And noticed
in the xfree86 changlog that DVI output on 9200 should work.
After adding (again) my Sapphire Radeon 9200 Atlantis with
128MB RAM and VGA+DVI+TV and connecting only the DVI cable
I can still reproduce this bug.
# uname -a

0000:01:00.1 Display controller: ATI Technologies Inc RV280 [Radeon 9200] (Secondary) (rev 01)
Only every second time in 1280x1024 mode I get a DVI out put
(ditto: once vt1 console stays blank and next time I see shell
running in vt1 again.). A diff
of /var/log/XFree86.0.log{.old,}, first with DVI signal and second
run without DVI signal, shows _no_ differences except for the startup
time.
Adding "1600x1200" to Modes, I get no DVI output at all.
(DVI output on this 1600x1200 TFT works fine here with the
radeon driver and Radeon 7000 and 7500 cards).
I've used the XF86Config from:
http://lists.debian.org/debian-x/2004/debian-x-200404/msg00405.html
with the following mods to get it to work with my Iiyama AU4831D
in 1280x1024 mode:

Looks like bug 243575 is not fixed.
