My Xorg gets very slow, so slow that it is impossible to work or open windows I used the 6.8.99.15-r4 xorg in gentoo-portage It is an PCI-E based M 300 drm and mesa are from CVS according to: http://dri.freedesktop.org/wiki/Building i'll attach my xorg.conf and the log Using Gentoo with Suspend2-Source 2.6.24-r7 and gcc 3.4.4 (-march=pentium-m) (for intrested its an IBM TP R52 Details: http://www.pro-com.org/nofost.de/Pages/ArticleDetails.aspx?ArticleNumber=1847W62-H )
Created attachment 4129 [details] xorg.conf
Created attachment 4130 [details] Xorg.0.log
using now xorg7.0 doesn't work (x hangs)
Created attachment 4331 [details] modified xorg.conf using 7.0 version of xorg
Created attachment 4332 [details] the according Xorg.0.log using 7.0 version of xorg
ok a moved on to xorg-x11-7.0 and build it up like it should be, but with the dri enabled config (look latest xorg.conf attachment) the x hangs at 99,9% cpu usage with the nixe gray/black background and the mouse in front of it (moveable) but i can't kill it or switch back to console (using ssh for diagnostic and later reboot) x works fine using vesa instead of radeon regards Florian p.s. some minor system updates were made (e.g. suspend2-2.6.15-r1 kernel and some other little changes minor upgrades of glibc and gcc and so on, nothing havy)

Created attachment 5948 [details] radeon driver with radeonfb 2.6.17-rc6 Still an issue but causes complete desktop to halt in an unusable state.
As this does prevent the X server from being used this would be a blocker as far as I am aware.
no, blocker is 'OMG X IS COMPLETELY USELESS TO EVERYONE, WE CANNOT RELEASE WITH THIS AT ALL' or security bugs, if that. usually just critical for those two. bugs about not functioning on certain hardware are normal; we have lots of those.
Closing due to inactivity. Reopen if this is still a bug.
