Description of problem: Comment 4 of bug 583319 shows the extreme case of darkness on a radeon RV280 I have in one system. That was the first where I noticed this, but now, I see the latest drivers on my RV410 have brought a distinct dimness that did not exist on fedora 13 running the same hardware. My desktop at work, with an RV610 still seems to retain the original briteness I previously used to see on all the different radeon cards. Version-Release number of selected component (if applicable): xorg-x11-drv-ati-6.13.1-0.3.20100705git37b348059.fc14.x86_64 How reproducible: Every time Steps to Reproduce: 1.Run "neverputt" compare the screens from different card displays. 2. 3. Actual results: too dim on some cards Expected results: Same on all cards Additional info: I'll attach a couple of screenshots taken on different systems.

Thanks for the bug report. We have reviewed the information you have provided above, and there is some additional information we require that will be helpful in our diagnosis of this issue. Please add drm.debug=0x04 to the kernel command line, restart computer, and attach * your X server config file (/etc/X11/xorg.conf, if available), * X server log file (/var/log/Xorg.*.log) * output of the dmesg command, and * system log (/var/log/messages) to the bug report as individual uncompressed file attachments using the bugzilla file attachment link above. We will review this issue again once you've had a chance to attach this information. Thanks in advance.
Created attachment 470427 [details] Xorg.0.log X log file This is the requested X log file from the RV410 system (the dim one). I don't have an xorg.conf file on this system, I'm using all defaults.
Created attachment 470428 [details] The dmesg command output from the same system.
Created attachment 470429 [details] The /var/log/messages from the same system.
If you are interested, I can get these same files for the system mentioned in bug 583319 (the RV280), but to get the files from my desktop at work (which still has the nice bright image) will have to wait till January when I go back to work again. Possibly relevant tidbit: The system at work only has the 1 DVI output (I think), where the two dim systems have S-video outputs (but they aren't connected to anything).
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 It is Fedora's policy to close all bug reports from releases that are no longer maintained.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: http://fedoraproject.org/wiki/BugZappers/HouseKeeping
