Hardware: Radeon HD 5770 Displays: 2x Dell 2209W via DVI outputs Kernel: 2.6.36.1 Xorg Server: 1.9.2 Mesa: 7.9 Using Kernel Mode Setting The following commit commit 3455a3b58532ea3ad901a317126968ab6cbb21b7 Author: Alex Deucher <alexdeucher@gmail.com> Date: Wed Nov 17 17:32:41 2010 -0500 radeon/kms: fix buffer base alignment for tiling On r6xx+, 2D tiling can require larger than 4k base alignment. causes display corruption when the displays are placed in portrait orientation. There're no differences between the `dmesg | grep drm` and `Xorg.0.log` files between working versions before this commit and the broken ones including and after this one. Display corruption occurs when the portrait orientation is set via either `xorg.conf` or `xrandr` after X is started in landscape mode.
Created attachment 40655 [details] xorg.conf xorg configuration that sets portrait orientation and triggers display corruption.
