Summary: R300 crash (fix included)
Product: DRI
Version: unspecified
Platform: x86 (IA32)
OS/Version: Linux (All)
Status: NEW
Keywords: regression
Severity: major
Priority: medium
Component: General
AssignedTo: [email protected]
ReportedBy: [EMAIL PROTECTED]
Hi,
Since the 6.7.197 version of the ATI drivers and independantly of the server /
kernel version, I have been unsable to use my ATI card with X. Depending on the
driver versions, it would either instantaneously freeze the system with screen
corruption or take some seconds during which I can use the interface until it
freezes.
My video card is detected as follow by X :
Chipset: "ATI Radeon Mobility 9600/9700 (M10/M11) NP (AGP)" (ChipID = 0x4e50)
Using the git bisect tool, I have been able to find the commit which caused the
regression :
09348a83d06ba9d3129499c4daedd44a68771530 is first bad commit
commit 09348a83d06ba9d3129499c4daedd44a68771530

Seems the default is more reliable... we can't win.
Revert "radeon: Default to 1x again with non-v3 AGP cards."
This reverts commit b653e5a628bfa4dfb168e96f93f41eb910f409fb.

)
I then downloaded the sources of the 6.9.0 version of the driver and reversed
the commit (that part of radeon_dri.c has not changed since then so it was
quite straightforward)
With this fix, I can now use the 6.9.0 version of the driver.
Sounds like an AGP mode detection problem with my chip ?
If you need further information, I can of course provide them.
