Bug#566669: xserver-xorg-core: VGA Arbitration prevents DRI starting

Following upgrade DRI is no longer enabled for display:

(WW) RADEON(0): Direct rendering is not supported when VGA arb is
necessary for the device
(EE) RADEON(0): [dri] DRIScreenInit failed.  Disabling DRI.

This is fixed with kernel mode setting, AIUI.  I don't think it will be
fixed for userspace mode setting.

Thanks for that. radeon.modeset=1 kernel option works. However I get no output on VTs. Seems to be a number related bugs with radeon driver.

Might be worth keeping this bug report visible to give a pointer to others with same difficulty.

Many thanks

Dick
