It took me some weeks, but I have now triggered this lockup with bleeding-edge xorg (xorg-edgers's ppa) and xserver-xorg-video-ati (tormod volden's ppa). Also discard the comment from 2009-01-02, as that partial lockup (xorg complaining about stuck server, but still remaining responsive) does not seem to be related. The lockup I am talking about right now, is the same as described in the bug report and most of my comments; a lockup in which case only the mouse moves, but the xserver doesn't respond on any action at all.
Regarding the various comments about mouse/keybord possibly causing the problem when being connected through usb: this does not seem to be related to this lockup, as both my mouse and keyboard now were connected over PS/2 (through an USB->PS/2 connector, but this shouldn't matter). Apart from confirming this lockup with updated drivers, I can also confirm it with a fully updated Intrepid Ibex. I triggered the bug fairly quickly after having Ubuntu reinstalled and updated. I don't have the time to test Jaunty right now, but I might test it later on. Xorg log included, backtrace included with xorg & xserver-xorg-video-ati from ppa's. ** Attachment added: "Xorg.0.log, contains a backtrace of the full lockup with updated xorg and ati driver." http://launchpadlibrarian.net/22987478/Xorg.0.log -- [X1650 Pro] Xorg lockup when using xserver-xorg-video-ati 1:6.9.0+git20080826.a3cc1d7a-2ubuntu3 https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/276518 You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
