While showing splash screen and after logging into Cinnamon in Mint 13.04 with Mesa, X.org module from git and kernel 3.11.3, there is only garbage on the screen with log entries about GPU lockup in dmesg.

Software versions:
Kernel 3.11.3 (x86)
linux-firmware 1.113
X.org 1.13.3
xf86-video-radeon 7.2.0+git1310011603.67fb82
Mesa 9.3~git1310011106.eb0a57

Comment 3 Nikolay Amiantov 2013-10-01 23:39:33 UTC
Also, it was running with dpm=1 aspm=0 now, but disabling dpm (or removing all options, which should be the same) doesn't help a bit. ASPM option was tried just in case.

One last thing: everything seems okay at login screen, but not before and after, and from logs it looks like GPU is resetting successfully. Also, consoles work.

Might be a duplicate of bug 69983.  Does reverting to an older version of mesa fix the issue?
Comment 6 Nikolay Amiantov 2013-10-02 08:43:42 UTC
Yes, reverting to 9.1.3 (from Ubuntu repos) solves the issue.
Comment 7 Nikolay Amiantov 2013-10-02 08:45:14 UTC
Oh, but I have not tried this with new kernel. I'll do this later, and if I have enough time today, I'll try to bisect the bug.
Comment 8 Nikolay Amiantov 2013-10-05 09:11:01 UTC
Yes, reverting only Mesa to the old version solves the issue. Later I'll try bisecting this. Sorry for a long break, haven't had enough time.
Comment 9 Nikolay Amiantov 2013-10-13 16:55:29 UTC
The computer in question was overheating while building Mesa. I've fixed it today, and with new Mesa from git everything is working properly.
