Description Pablo Rodríguez 2011-02-17 18:01:33 UTC
Displaying http://www.startupchile.org/ with the xorg-x11-drv-ati-6.13.1-0.3.20100705git37b348059.fc14.i686 driver causes 100% CUP load when firefox is displaying the page.

I have reported the bug upstream and I was told that the bug has been fixed in version 6.13.2 of the radeon driver.

Would you be so kind to provide it in the updates?

Thanks for your help,


Pablo

I already provided the information some time ago.

Would you be so kind to tell me what is missing?

Thanks for your help,

Comment 12 Armijn Hemel 2011-10-21 21:12:47 UTC
https://bugzilla.mozilla.org/show_bug.cgi?id=631648

says that there is an upstream patch that would prevent this problem:

https://bugzilla.mozilla.org/show_bug.cgi?id=631648#c10

I hope that it is possible to rebuild the driver with the patch mentioned there and push it as an update (and I know it is just a few months until EOL). It would help me, and other users a lot.

I guess this works for me with Fedora 16.

Not closing the bug myself, since it might not work for others.

Thanks for your help,


Pablo

Comment 14 Fedora End Of Life 2012-08-16 13:32:05 UTC
This message is a notice that Fedora 14 is now at end of life. Fedora 
has stopped maintaining and issuing updates for Fedora 14. It is 
Fedora's policy to close all bug reports from releases that are no 
longer maintained.  At this time, all open bugs with a Fedora 'version'
of '14' have been closed as WONTFIX.

(Please note: Our normal process is to give advanced warning of this 
occurring, but we forgot to do that. A thousand apologies.)

Package Maintainer: If you wish for this bug to remain open because you
plan to fix it in a currently maintained version, feel free to reopen 
this bug and simply change the 'version' to a later Fedora version.

Bug Reporter: Thank you for reporting this issue and we are sorry that 
we were unable to fix it before Fedora 14 reached end of life. If you 
would still like to see this bug fixed and are able to reproduce it 
against a later version of Fedora, you are encouraged to click on 
"Clone This Bug" (top right of this page) and open it against that 
version of Fedora.

Although we aim to fix as many bugs as possible during every release's 
lifetime, sometimes those efforts are overtaken by events.  Often a 
more recent Fedora release includes newer upstream software that fixes 
bugs or makes them obsolete.

The process we are following is described here:
