Comment 4 Soeren Grunewald 2009-11-24 13:58:32 UTC
same here, i have it also in rhythmbox play-list and opera-10.10

i tried different kernel version because i also don't get X to run with enabled KMS. so i have disables it for now.

kernel-2.6.31.5-127.fc12.x86_64
kernel-2.6.31.6-134.fc12.x86_64
kernel-2.6.32-0.51.rc7.git2.fc13.x86_64

xorg-x11-server-Xorg-1.7.1-7.fc12.x86_64
xorg-x11-drv-ati-6.13.0-0.11.20091119git437113124.fc12.x86_64

i also tried changing gfx-card from Radeon HD 4350 (RV710) to Radeon HD 3650 (RV635) same behaviour.

Comment 5 Victor 2009-11-25 22:05:07 UTC
might be related to http://bugs.freedesktop.org/show_bug.cgi?id=24300

Comment 6 Vedran Miletić 2009-11-28 09:28:06 UTC
I believe I have seen this on RV740.

Is radeon any different here? Because upstream bug is reported on radeon, not radeonhd. Also, do you have http://bugs.freedesktop.org/show_bug.cgi?id=18397 ?

Comment 7 Robert Laverick 2009-11-30 22:29:52 UTC
this sounds/looks like a dupe of bug 522763 seems this problem is quite widespread, reported with ati and nvidia drivers too (I've got it on an ATI card, tho I can't duplicate with my nvidia at the moment)

Comment 9 Bug Zapper 2010-11-04 05:56:12 UTC
This message is a reminder that Fedora 12 is nearing its end of life.
Approximately 30 (thirty) days from now Fedora will stop maintaining
and issuing updates for Fedora 12.  It is Fedora's policy to close all
bug reports from releases that are no longer maintained.  At that time
this bug will be closed as WONTFIX if it remains open with a Fedora 
'version' of '12'.

Package Maintainer: If you wish for this bug to remain open because you
plan to fix it in a currently maintained version, simply change the 'version' 
to a later Fedora version prior to Fedora 12's end of life.

Bug Reporter: Thank you for reporting this issue and we are sorry that 
we may not be able to fix it before Fedora 12 is 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 please change the 'version' of this 
bug to the applicable version.  If you are unable to change the version, 
please add a comment here and someone will do it for you.

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: 
http://fedoraproject.org/wiki/BugZappers/HouseKeeping

Comment 10 Bug Zapper 2010-12-04 03:05:51 UTC
Fedora 12 changed to end-of-life (EOL) status on 2010-12-02. Fedora 12 is 
no longer maintained, which means that it will not receive any further 
security or bug fix updates. As a result we are closing this bug.

If you can reproduce this bug against a currently maintained version of 
Fedora please feel free to reopen this bug against that version.

Thank you for reporting this bug and we are sorry it could not be fixed.
