Bug#619994: linux-image-2.6.38-1-686: scrambled video with radeon 9000 once xorg starts
 

Package: linux-image-2.6.38-1-686
Version: 2.6.38-1-686
Severity: important
File: linux-image-2.6.38-1-686
Tags: sid

hi,

it's not installed right now, since it doesn't work for me.

i would boot the machine, console looks ok, changes resolution and everything, but
once xorg starts loading, the video in xorg is totally scrambled, and i can't switch to
console at all, forcing me to reset the machine. i've tried all the previous version and
they all do the same thing. the only one i've found that behaves is 2.6.35. severity is set
important as i'm pretty sure it doesn't affect all users.

i just tried 2.6.38.2, which had some radeon fixes committed, but it also behaves similarly.

Please report this bug upstream at <https://bugs.freedesktop.org>, under
product 'DRI', component 'DRM/Radeon'. Let us know the bug URL so we
can track it.

Once a job is fouled up, anything done to improve it makes it worse.

Ping. Did you end up getting in contact with upstream? If so, what
was the bug number?
