Alex, btw, I had him test a package with the dozen or so patches you mentioned to me at XDC, but reported they didn't solve it. Hi, I'm the guy who filed that bug on launchpad. If you need further information, just let me know. Have you gotten the latest hardy updates? I had a similar problem with some of the earlier hardy betas. It was not driver related as I was using a known working xserver and driver (self compiled). One of the hardy updates fixed it, but I don't know which. From you log it looks like the something is repeatedly calling the output->detect() routines, I had the same pattern in my log at the time. The mouse thing makes me think kernel. I'm guessing there some strange interaction in the kernel related to the mouse driver and the radeon drm. I vaguely recall a similar bug from a while back, but I can't find it at the moment. Can you try the following options (individually) and let me know if any of them help: Option "BusType" "PCI" Option "AGPMode" "1" Option "DRI" "FALSE" Yes, my system is up to date. I kept installing all updates in the hope that one of them would fix the freezes, but the issue isn't solved by any update in the official repositories. If I add any of the options you suggested to my device section, the system works like a charm. (In reply to comment #4) > If I add any of the options you suggested to my device section, the system > works like a charm. > Sounds like there's a bad interaction with AGP 4x and the mouse on your system. I think this comes back to the fact that AGP is broken by design. *** This bug has been marked as a duplicate of bug 12934 *** I just wanted to note that the issues described above and in bug 12934 started after an upgrade to a kernel with version > 2.6.22. I never had any problems with stability till I installed hardy (kernel 2.6.24). Alex experienced the problems when he switched to kernel 2.6.23. I don't know if that helps in any way, but if the bug is kernel related, it wasn't there in 2.6.22. |
