Subject: fglrx + radeonfb leads to crashes?
Date: Wed, 17 Mar 2004 12:18:05 -0800	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <200403172018.i2HKI5E0002012@napali.hpl.hp.com> (raw)

Hi Ani,

I have a machine here with an ATI FireGL Z1 card.  It works fine with
the ATI fglrx binary-only driver on 2.6.5-rc1.  However, if radeonfb
is enabled and I try to stop the X server or switch away from it to
another virtual console, then the screen display gets all messed up
and the machine gets stuck.  When this hapens, I periodically see this
kind of message:

  radeonfb: FIFO Timeout !

Now, this is on ia64 machine so at this point I'm just wondering
whether this problem also shows up on other machines.  If it's an
ia64-specific problem, I can look into it.  Otherwise, I guess I'll
just disable radeonfp for now.

Thanks,

	--david
