(how I read in http://xorg.freedesktop.org/wiki/Development/Documentation/ServerDebugging) I have this problem only with a pc in others pc i haven't this problem, but windows don't crash, so I guess that isn't a bad hardware problem. > On the other hand - if you had this 'freeze' with > with many different kernel versions, and different xorg > versions and different video cards etc etc - then realize I tried only 1 hardware configuration, trying several software configuration others people have my problem with different hardware configuration I have read many forums related to the problem (such as http://forums.gentoo.org/viewtopic-t-198023-postdays-0-postorder-asc-highlight-lockups-start-0.html) I have this problem since years such as many others people in the world (reading in internet) Carlo Wood ha scritto: > On Fri, Jun 15, 2007 at 02:53:10PM +0200, davide wrote: > >> (gdb) bt >> #0 0xb7fa9800 in firegl_PM4WaitForIdle () >> from /usr/lib/xorg/modules/linux//libfglrxdrm.so >> #1 0xb799ee11 in atiddxAccelCPWaitForIdle () >> from /usr/lib/xorg/modules//drivers/fglrx_drv.so >> #2 0xb7726452 in XAACopyAreaFallback () from >> /usr/lib/xorg/modules//libxaa.so >> #3 0xb77276a7 in XAACopyArea () from /usr/lib/xorg/modules//libxaa.so >> #4 0x0808460a in ProcCopyArea () >> #5 0x0813d621 in XaceCatchDispatchProc () >> #6 0x0808643f in Dispatch () >> #7 0x0806e885 in main () >> (gdb) cont >> Continuing. >> > > Is there only one thread running? > I guess that if you want to debug this, you'll have to > compile xorg from source - so you can actually see what > it's doing in that function. > > On the other hand - if you had this 'freeze' with > with many different kernel versions, and different xorg > versions and different video cards etc etc - then realize > that for MOST people it all works perfectly; therefore > it's a large chance that whatever is constant in your > setup is the problem: your hardware.
