(In reply to comment #2) > could the bug 14810 be related to issue #1? > What distro are you using? That bug seems to be related to some desktop service polling the outputs with randr every few seconds. Do you still get the blanking problems if you start just plain plain X server with no desktop environment (run Xorg rather than startx). Distro is current rawhide (upgraded from fc8 + current git) I still get random blanking, after killing the usual suspects (dbus, udev, ...) gears is running fullscreen at 17fps, I'm not sure about DRI working, it says: Warning, RS690 detected, 3D support is incomplete. This is my process list, except kernel stuff: root 2333 1 0 18:18 ? 00:00:00 /usr/sbin/sshd xfs 2450 1 0 18:18 ? 00:00:00 xfs -droppriv -daemon root 2577 1 0 18:18 tty4 00:00:00 /sbin/mingetty tty4 root 2578 1 0 18:18 tty5 00:00:00 /sbin/mingetty tty5 root 2579 1 0 18:18 ? 00:00:00 login -- mark root 2580 1 0 18:18 tty3 00:00:00 /sbin/mingetty tty3 root 2581 1 0 18:18 ? 00:00:00 login -- root root 2583 1 0 18:18 tty6 00:00:00 /sbin/mingetty tty6 root 2813 2581 0 18:19 tty1 00:00:00 -bash mark 2857 2579 0 18:20 tty2 00:00:00 -bash mark 2927 2857 0 18:20 tty2 00:00:00 /bin/sh /usr/bin/startx mark 2945 2927 0 18:20 tty2 00:00:00 xinit /etc/X11/xinit/xinitrc -- -auth /home/mark/.serverauth.2927 root 2946 2945 32 18:20 tty7 00:22:06 X :0 -auth /home/mark/.serverauth.2927 mark 2951 2945 0 18:20 ? 00:00:00 icewm-session mark 3110 2951 0 18:20 ? 00:00:00 /usr/bin/ssh-agent /home/mark/.Xclients mark 3159 2951 0 18:20 ? 00:00:04 [xterm] mark 3183 3159 0 18:20 ? 00:00:00 xterm mark 3185 3183 0 18:20 pts/0 00:00:00 bash mark 3241 3159 0 18:21 ? 00:00:01 xterm mark 3243 3241 0 18:21 pts/1 00:00:00 bash root 3530 3243 0 18:26 pts/1 00:00:00 bash mark 3571 3185 1 18:27 pts/0 00:00:56 glxgears mark 3630 3159 0 18:32 ? 00:00:00 /bin/sh /opt/firefox/firefox mark 3633 3630 0 18:32 ? 00:00:00 /bin/sh /opt/firefox/run-mozilla.sh /opt/firefox/firefox-bin mark 3639 3633 8 18:32 ? 00:04:33 /opt/firefox/firefox-bin mark 3713 3159 0 18:36 ? 00:00:00 xterm mark 3715 3713 0 18:36 pts/2 00:00:00 bash mark 3747 1 0 18:36 ? 00:00:00 /usr/libexec/gconfd-2 12 mark 3763 3159 0 18:41 pts/3 00:00:00 bash mark 3815 3763 0 19:01 pts/3 00:00:01 icewm mark 3816 3815 11 19:05 ? 00:02:28 tvtime mark 3817 3815 0 19:12 ? 00:00:00 rxvt mark 3818 3817 0 19:12 pts/4 00:00:00 bash root 3857 3530 5 19:27 pts/1 00:00:00 ps -ef If the system is idle (except for gears/tvtime) , there is almost no blanking, but as soon as I start doing anything, blanking occurs often.

new xorg config (prev had some unwanted modeline stuff)
Created attachment 15434 [details] [review] possible fix for 1920x1200 mode Does this patch help with the 1920x1200 mode? It does not help :( Another user reported a modeline with a lower dot clock worked perfectly on his monitor while the standard one from his monitor did not. Modeline "1920x1200-dvi" 150.0 1920 1940 2007 2027 1200 1201 1204 1233 +hsync -vsync Adding a new modeline and switching to it with xrandr doesn't help. I have also tried on the same display: 1600x1200 -> blinking / loss of sync 1900x1080 -> no loss of sync I guess dual link DVI is to be having problems. Maybe HDMI extender card + HDMI cable is worth trying (need to buy the cable) Created attachment 15515 [details]
xv clipping problem (tvtime)
attaching an image showing the the Xv clipping problems when
the window is covered.
re: comment #10 could the problem be that the port is identified as HDMI-0 The board actually has a DVI connector which is connected with a DVI->HDMI cable to the monitor. Under radeon x550, the connector is identified as DVI-0 xrandr output: Screen 0: minimum 320 x 200, current 1920 x 1080, maximum 1920 x 1200 VGA-0 disconnected (normal left inverted right x axis y axis) S-video disconnected (normal left inverted right x axis y axis) HDMI-1 disconnected (normal left inverted right x axis y axis) HDMI-0 connected 1920x1080+0+0 (normal left inverted right x axis y axis) 432mm x 324mm 1920x1200 60.0 + 1920x1200-dvi 60.0 1920x1080 59.9* 1600x1200 60.0 60.0 1680x1050 60.0 60.0 59.9 1600x1024 60.2 1400x1050 74.8 70.0 70.0 60.0 1280x1024 75.0 75.0 60.0 60.0 1440x900 59.9 1280x960 75.0 60.0 1360x768 59.8 60.0 1280x800 75.0 70.0 60.0 1152x864 75.0 75.0 70.0 60.0 1280x768 75.0 70.0 60.0 1280x720 75.0 70.0 60.0 1024x768 75.1 75.0 70.1 60.0 832x624 74.6 800x600 72.2 75.0 60.3 56.2 640x480 75.0 72.8 75.0 60.0 59.9 720x400 70.1 (In reply to comment #12) > re: comment #10 > > could the problem be that the port is identified as HDMI-0 Those are just names bases on the bios connector tables. The driver handles the actual ports properly. Is this still an issue with a newer driver (6.9.0 or newer)? I have the same problems (screen goes blank randomly for several seconds) with a Sapphire X1650 Pro on a gentoo system, using the 6.9.0 drivers. The blanking occurs only at the 1920x1200 resolution. Changing with xrandr to 1280x1024 for example, there is no blinking at all. I haven't tried this in a while (the box is now my headless firewall box). Some time ago I also tried the radeonhd driver, it had the same problem with 1920x1200 resolution. Not tested with fglrx or MSWindows. The monitor is now on my current box, running radeon driver: ATI Technologies Inc RV370 [Sapphire X550 Silent] (prog-if 00 [VGA controller]) which has no problems with blanking (also running 1920x1200 DVI->HDMI). I will try to retest this over the weekend using Fedora 10 (if that's not enough, I will try to find the time to build from git) retested with Fedora 10 - fb (drm) and radeon still have the problem. They also both behave strangely the same: a) the screen clocks are set for 1920x1200 resolution b) usable resolution is set to 800x600 (console and X shown in top left of the scren) and has to be manually extended in xrandr the screen going black occurs both in fb and X. - radeonhd WORKS (so far at least), but no drm and/or Xv - radeon (textured video) still has the clipping problem the top part of the window (full width) is covered by another window: the content shifts down, and the bottom is doubly clipped (so the height is zero when window is half covered) This problem was present in horizontal direction before, but now seems ok. For HDMI radomly flicker issue, I can duplicate it and I debug it for 2 days, no result. Or more accurately, this issue only occur on DVI->HDMI card, if I attach the monitor to HDMI on board directly, 1920x1200 works well, no flicker. To be more precise, if monitor is connected to DVI->HDMI card, even 1280x1024, monitor will flicker also on a low repetition rate. So I think maybe it's related to DVI->HDMI card, anyway, in Windows it works well. I have also been seeing an infrequent blanking on my pair of BENQ LCD 1920x1200 panels, pretty much since I originally got them. I've seen it on 2 different ATI cards (one a 6xx, another 5xx), from the 6.8 driver (maybe earlier) and still see it on 6.11.0. I hadn't reported it before because I assumed it was a hardware issue, but after reading several bug reports about this including this one and a couple in Ubuntu's launchpad tracker, I think it may be something with the xserver or driver. One thing I noticed is it seems to only occur on DVI. Originally I ran it on a dual DVI/VGA card, and I saw the blanking only on the screen connected to DVI. I then moved to a different DVI/DVI card, and now see the problem on both monitors, although not at the same time. For reference, here are two ubuntu bug reports that seem to have the same issue: https://bugs.edge.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/xserver-xorg-video-ati/+bug/321137 https://bugs.edge.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/xserver-xorg-video-ati/+bug/310864 Created attachment 23331 [details] [review] possible fix the monitor may not like the frequency that's getting picked. let's try tweaking it a bit. Can you try the attached patch against ati git master? There are two options to try with the patch: tweaking the frequency up, and tweaking it down. Please try both combinations by commenting out the appropriate line from the patch below: clk = mode->Clock - 10; clk = mode->Clock + 10; This should be fixed in git master as of d095bb3157faaee10b0130ea9b1032e0b533aaee. *** This bug has been marked as a duplicate of bug 22229 *** |
