Description Nicolas Bock 2008-11-16 19:10:24 UTC
I am currently using version 1.2.1 and that works great. When I upgrade to 1.2.3 everything looks fine at first, but when dpms turns on

xset dpms force standby

X crashes. Here is some output from Xorg.0.log:

X Window System Version 1.3.0
Release Date: 19 April 2007
X Protocol Version 11, Revision 0, Release 1.3

(--) PCI:*(1:0:0) ATI Technologies Inc M56P [Radeon Mobility X1600] rev 0, Mem @ 0x80000000/28, 0x98300000/16, I/O @ 0x3000/8


I am aware that I almost surely will need to supply some more information than the information above, but I am not sure what. Please let me know what else might be of importance here.

I have some more output from Xorg.0.log:

        compiled for 1.3.0, module version = 1.2.3

I cannot reproduce this.

This would of course be a full (if possible verbose ie. -logverbose 7) log file.
Check  http://wiki.x.org/wiki/radeonhd for more details.

I'd assume that this was fixed already with commit:
9ca2384d14612eab710450e5a527dcc345e4179c
Please make sure you are using the latest driver from GIT when reporting a bug.

I just installed from git and now it works. Thanks!
Comment 5 Egbert Eich 2008-11-17 23:28:50 UTC
OK, so the bug is fixed. Thanks for testing :)
