Moving forward: - Please also try getting a log from 2.6.32-40 with drm.debug=0x6 on the kernel command line. - Was this a regression? Do you remember any older kernel version that worked? (Well, I'm guessing the problems started with KMS, but it's worth knowing anyway.) - Can you reproduce this without KMS activated? (I.e., "recovery mode" with drm.modeset=0 on the kernel command line, and then starting X with the "vesa" driver.) - Can you reproduce it with KMS activated but without X? (I.e., ordinary "recovery mode" on the kernel command line; you might need to run "modprobe radeon" to trigger symptoms, not sure if it gets loaded automatically.) - How about with KMS activated and the X fbdev driver instead of the radeon driver? - What is your userspace like? Please attach output from "reportbug --template xserver-xorg-video-radeon" with an affected version loaded. - Any other weird symptoms or clues?
