Kernel driver in use: HDA Intel
Kernel modules: snd-hda-intel
It is an XFX ATI Radeon HD5670 PCIExpress w/ 512MB of GDDR5 just recently purchased.
I am currently forcing the use of the vesa driver by way of a custom xorg.conf file. But I can revert to no conf file and post a copy of the relevant Xorg.0.log if it would help.

lspci -v trimmed to just the ATI Radeon components
I have attached the output of lspci -v trimmed down to just the relevant XFX Radeon HD5670 components (Video card device and HDMI audio device).

dmesg log
Attached dmesg output log file for the latest kernel.

X.org log file
Attached the X.org log file using no xorg.conf file.
Please note, I did not attach a xorg.conf file, because I normally do not use one (been using auto-detect at run time since it was introduced). I now use one only to force the use of the VESA driver when I need to use the system, but for the purposes of this bug I reverted to not using one to have a valid X.org log file to upload here. Also note, I did not upload my /var/log/messages file as it did not contain any error messages, or output pertinent to the Radeon kernel messages or X loading up. Thanks, logs looks relevant ... could I ask for attempt to start the system with nomodeset on the kernel command line (without /etc/X11/xorg.conf of course). Does it help? Thank you Sure, I will do that, I just need to add "nomodeset" to the kernel command line without quotes right? nomodeset had no effect. I don't think KMS is supported on this Radeon yet? Just downloaded the latest version of these packages: Mar 20 11:07:26 Updated: xorg-x11-server-Xorg-1.7.5.902-1.fc12.x86_64 Mar 20 11:07:10 Updated: xorg-x11-server-common-1.7.5.902-1.fc12.x86_64 No change here, though not surprising since I did not see a new ati driver component get downloaded. I was quick to install Fedora 13 x64 last night onto the affected machine and to my surprise I appear to have proper Kernel mode setting and X support now. So far everything seems to work ok. I've not seen any screen corruption. This is a clean install (gonna migrate my /home volume from the old drive onto my new one)...so there is no xorg.conf file either. Works as it should. Forgot to mention, while power saving modes of the screen and 3D don't seem to work quite yet, I consider this bug no longer relevant and if no one objects, seeing as this bug only affects Fedora 12 and not 13, I plan to close it (if I have the authority to do so). No longer an issue in Fedora 13... |
