Description kzot 2009-01-01 05:59:30 UTC
After updating with an unmodified xorg.conf from xorg-1.4.2/radeonhd-1.2.2 to 
xorg-1.5.3 and later xorg-1.5.99.33 / radeon-1.2.4 (all rpm packages of Mandriva Cooker) I see heavy cpu utilization when running video or moving windows.

It was advised to report this problem upstream/here. The original report is here: https://qa.mandriva.com/show_bug.cgi?id=46211.

NB: This effect is not seen when running the alternative radeon (ati) driver.

Comment 3 Jeremy Huddleston Sequoia 2011-10-16 15:59:14 UTC
Does this issue occur with the preferred ati driver (xf86-vide-ati)?  If so, please move this to the Driver/Radeon component.  

Development of radeonhd has pretty much halted and development focus is on the ati driver.  Please see http://www.x.org/wiki/radeonhd

If the issue does not exist in the ati driver (or if there is no response to this message), this bug will be closed as WONTFIX unless someone contributes a patch.
Comment 4 Jeremy Huddleston Sequoia 2011-11-07 15:11:37 UTC
Closing due to lack of response.  Please reopen and move to the Driver/Radeon 
component if this issue persists with xf86-video-ati
