One of the dmesg logs showing the symptom.

Another dmesg log showing the constant gpu hangs.

xorg log from one of the constant gpu hangs
Created attachment 71313 [details]
Another set of logs (after another reboot )
Created attachment 71314 [details]
Another set of logs (full shutdown and restart)
This reboot also includes an xorg crash. Either way, xrandr coupled with an automated desktop login manager can cause this.

I don't think there's any such direct connection. Does Option "ColorTiling2D" "off" prevent the GPU lockups?

Even when I enabled the third display and used all three at once only two displays had output... In my case the following configurations are valid: LVDS + HDMI LVDS + CRT CRT + HDMI However, the following is invalid and leads to corruption bugs and other issues...

There was no gpu lockups until *AFTER* i forced enabling of three panels at once and rebooted the system. The only fix i had was to reinstall fglrx to get xorg working again.

This is already enforced in the driver. The driver only exposes two display controllers (crtcs) on that asic. xrandr should complain when you try to enable more displays than there are crtcs. Please attach the output of xrandr --verbose Created attachment 71359 [details] Xrandr verbose output ( radeon driver ) Xorg version: 1.12.3+git20120709+server-1.12-branch.60e0d205 Radeon Driver version: 7.0.99+git20121207.793e1b0e Actually, I do think this is a driver bug for certain... With fglrx the behaviour is as follows: $ xrandr --output CRT1 --auto $ xrandr --output LVDS --auto xrandr: cannot find crtc for output LVDS $ xrandr --output CRT1 --off $ xrandr --output LVDS --auto $ xrandr --output CRT1 --auto xrandr: cannot find crtc for output CRT1 Now with radeon driver, the commands that error with fglrx do not error and for all intensive purposes apply happily. This is bad since obviously it can break a system since it did break the laptop of mine... I'm not exactly certain how to fix the Userspace since I relied on it working automatically by default. Anyways, My desktop is Mate desktop enviornment ( http://mate-desktop.org/ ) ( it's pretty much mirrors all the behavior of gnome 2 ) Can you list the exact commands you are using? I can't reproduce this here. I have a APU laptop with VGA-0, HDMI-0, and LVDS and I get the expected behavior: $ xrandr --output HDMI-0 --auto $ xrandr --output VGA-0 --auto xrandr: cannot find crtc for output VGA-0 Do you still have the GPU resets when you disable acceleration? Option "NoAccel" "true" in the device section of your xorg.conf Created attachment 71371 [details]
xrandr tests -- radeon driver
it appears the problem is user space... xrandr command line is not the issue.
