My xinerama xorg.conf
Hi,
I get the exact same problem, when running on xinerama on an ATI
Radeon Mobility M6
(01:00.0 VGA compatible controller: ATI Technologies Inc Radeon
Mobility M6 LY (prog-if 00 [VGA])
Subsystem: IBM: Unknown device 052f
Flags: bus master, stepping, fast Back2Back, 66Mhz, medium
devsel, latency 66, IRQ 11
Memory at e0000000 (32-bit, prefetchable) [size=128M]
I/O ports at 3000 [size=256]
Memory at c0100000 (32-bit, non-prefetchable) [size=64K]
Capabilities: [58] AGP version 2.0
Capabilities: [50] Power Management version 2
according to lspci -v
), on an IBM x31 laptop, when using xinerama or mergedfb. Problem goes
away on a single screen.
The x.org or kernel updates have not helped (I'm currently running
xorg-x11-6.8.1-12.FC3.21 and kernel-2.6.9-1.681_FC3.
The system does not hang, but the display (on the X screen), keyboard
and mouse freeze. It still responds to ACPI events, as pressing the
power button executes shutdown -h properly, and the machine eventually
shuts down.
This problem did not occur in FC2.
Thanks,
Stefanos
Just to add to this, exiting the x-server or killing it, on runlevel 3, does drop you back to console, without any problems. It's just when switching from X to console and X is running... To add something else: I have the same problem with recent xorg and another distribution, and when i killed -9 the Xorg server the box went to standby and when i switched it on again X worked again. (namely it was ubuntu) So it's at least not FC3 specific. This is fixed in the rawhide version of xorg-x11, 6.8.1.901 Great to hear! Thanks for the feedback. We'll be releasing 6.8.2 for FC3 in the near future, as well as in rawhide. Thanks again. Setting status to "RAWHIDE" So where's that 6.8.2 in the "near future?" I'm seeing this problem as well with a Radeon 7500. Had to fall back to FC2 because I just can't stop myself from pressing Ctrl-Alt-F1. |

(--) Chipset ATI Radeon Mobility 9000 (M9) Lf (AGP) found When running xinerama, a ctrl-alt-f1 to switch to the console causes the system to freeze. I think the system remains accessible from the outside at this point. When I use "NoAccel", the problem goes away, but that's not something I want to do. Didn't happen with FC2. --Jamie Version-Release number of selected component (if applicable): xorg-x11-6.8.1-12 How reproducible: Always Steps to Reproduce: 1. Set up xinerama for radeon 2. Try to switch to virtual console (Ctrl-Alt-F1) 3. Actual Results: Freeze of display Additional info:
