--- Comment #13 from Manuel Ullmann <[email protected]> 2010-02-05 20:07:19 --- @Rafał Miłecki: Your bug should indeed not be related to this one, because, as you wrote in your report, you switched to init 3 and disabled radeon (and kms, in consequence) in your kernel configuration for testing purposes. @Alex Deucher: And you are using kms? Cause of course brightness-changing works fine, if appending radeon.modeset=0 to kernel command line. If you are using kms, the reasons for this bug are shrinking. The question is now: What has this notebook series, what others don´t have? The first thing, that comes into my mind, is UEFI with its BIOS. It changes the brightness, when the power cable is unplugged (but actually there are other BIOSes like that and I´m wondering, why this bug doesn´t occur without kms or with my old framebuffer driver uvesafb). What you all could test, is the second way - I mentioned above - to reproduce a system freeze. Actually this should be another bug, but I didn´t realize that while writing the bug report. Close the LID for ca. 5 minutes. Radeon should try to switch off the video signal then and freeze the system. Switching on and off the monitor is no problem. -- Configure bugmail: http://bugzilla.kernel.org/userprefs.cgi?tab=email ------- You are receiving this mail because: ------- You are watching the assignee of the bug. ------------------------------------------------------------------------------ The Planet: dedicated and managed hosting, cloud storage, colocation Stay online with enterprise data centers and the best network in the business Choose flexible plans and management services without long-term contracts Personal 24x7 support from experience hosting pros just a phone call away. http://p.sf.net/sfu/theplanet-com -- _______________________________________________ Dri-devel mailing list [email protected] https://lists.sourceforge.net/lists/listinfo/dri-devel
