The Technical: -------------- -bash-4.2$ uname -a Linux localhost.localdomain 3.7.2-204.fc18.i686 #1 SMP Wed Jan 16 16:42:52 UTC 2013 i686 i686 i386 GNU/Linux -bash-4.2$ -bash-4.2$ lspci | grep -i "Radeon" 00:01.0 VGA compatible controller: Advanced Micro Devices [AMD] nee ATI Wrestler [Radeon HD 6320] 00:01.1 Audio device: Advanced Micro Devices [AMD] nee ATI Wrestler HDMI Audio [Radeon HD 6250/6310] -bash-4.2$ The Problem: ------------ Using Fedora 18 here with above specs. When switching from X -> Console and then trying switching back to X I often get exactly the problems described in the summary. Whenever this happens there is NO recovery (like going to another console, pressing power to have it shutdown, or sleep mode) the ONLY way to get rid of this is to hard power off the system. And this usually ends in huge DATA LOSS and FS corruption. What visually happens is, that the notebook LCD is showing a strobo like effect, for (;;) { // the endless loop printf(white); // doing something in white for less than a sec printf(black); // doing something in black for less than a sec } // poweroff
By the way, this allso happened with older version of the kernels (pre f18 release).
The same problem on Fedora 18 with kernel 3.7.2-204.fc18.i686: lspci | grep -i "Radeon" 00:01.0 VGA compatible controller: Advanced Micro Devices [AMD] nee ATI Wrestler [Radeon HD 6250] 00:01.1 Audio device: Advanced Micro Devices [AMD] nee ATI Wrestler HDMI Audio [Radeon HD 6250/6310] In /var/log/messages appears: Jan 21 19:01:25 acer722 kernel: [ 492.234153] [drm:radeon_cs_ioctl] *ERROR* Failed to parse relocation -35!

duplicate of 849347 ?
I've tried advices from https://bugzilla.redhat.com/show_bug.cgi?id=849347. Either iommu=off, amd_iommu=fullflush, amd_iommu=force_isolation nor upgrade mesa to mesa-9.0.1-4.fc18 don't help. Results similar to https://bugzilla.redhat.com/show_bug.cgi?id=849347#c50 (Vann Walke 2013-02-08 15:36:20 EST).
Please update to xorg-x11-drv-ati-7.0.0-0.9.20121015gitbd9e2c064.fc18 it should fix your issue.
Closing reopen if you still have the issue with xorg-x11-drv-ati-7.0.0-0.9.20121015gitbd9e2c064.fc18 or newer
