Bug#354221: xserver-xorg: Confirm freezing of Radeon with recent ati drivers
Package: xserver-xorg
Version: 1:7.0.12
Followup-For: Bug #354221
I have what sounds like the same bug. It's been present since x.org 6.9.0
Every time I boot x.org since then I can expect the system to freeze
within 5-10 minutes of starting X. No logs, machine can not be accessed over
the network, ctrl-alt-del does not work, turning off the power is the only
solution. This is a very serious bug to me, it makes ATI driver useless for
any serious use.
I have verified that this bug existed in x.org 7.0 as well.
initialy I downgraded to 6.8.2, later I used fglrx drivers which still worked.
However, there don't seem to be any fglrx drivers for x.org 7.0, so now I'm
reduced to working under vesafb driver, which doesn't support resolutions
I want.
Please, PLEASE, do something about this bug. Feel free to contact me at my
address for any testing or additional information which could help resolve
this bug.
