Executing xrandr (without any or with options) will cure the desktop I attached a xorg.0 dmesg with boot parameter drm.debug=0x6. I patched the kernel with the patch included in this report to kernel 2.6.32 and 2.6.35, this fixed the bug. I did not find any side effects. I reported the bug at kernel.org, see https://bugzilla.kernel.org/show_bug.cgi?id=16236 - If you need further information, please let me know, but I am not a Linux expert Kind regards, Otto Meijer + + Fix: + Application of an upstream commit. + + Test: + Apply the patch, test the kernel and see if issue is resolved.
