Xorg.0.log file

Hi there,

This bug has been reported to Ubuntu (see link above).
Post boot, the gdm screen is blank but gdm is running and login can be blindly
made. After login, the screen resumes normally.
Attempts to run xrandr during login by alternate login to a console fails with
the message "no display found!".
In the attached log file, this can be seen by the AUDIT: line (line 1116), so,
if any releveant log message can help they should be locate in that area of the
log file (where the VT switch is also logged)

Let me know if I can help in any way.

Driver version is 6.7.197.

It only happens when XAA is used, keeping DRI enabled and switching to EXA, the test works fine. Running X server 1.4, vanilla kernel 2.6.23. When the test hangs X, the mouse cursor can still be moved but there is no response to the keyboard. -- Configure bugmail: http://bugs.freedesktop.org/userprefs.cgi?tab=email ------- You are receiving this mail because: ------- You are the assignee for the bug.

[Bug 14050] Blank GDM screen with ATI R420 [X800XT PE] and xserver-xorg-video-ati

http://bugs.freedesktop.org/show_bug.cgi?id=14050 --- Comment #1 from Alex Deucher <agd5f-/E1597aS9LQAvxtiuMwx3w@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx> 2008-01-13 07:47:37 PST --- (II) RADEON(0): Output VGA-0 using monitor section Generic Monitor ... (II) RADEON(0): Output VGA-0 using initial mode 1600x1024 Looks like it's trying to use 1600x1024 on startup for some reason. Can you attach your xorg config? perhaps you have a strange mode or sync range set in your monitor section? Does startx (as opposed to gdm) work ok? gnome/gdm sometimes saves previously set user modes. -- Configure bugmail: http://bugs.freedesktop.org/userprefs.cgi?tab=email ------- You are receiving this mail because: ------- You are the assignee for the bug.

Google Earth + Radeon = True

Hello, for a long time I was unable to get Google Earth + Open Source Radeon driver to work together on my IBM T42 w/ATI Mobility Radeon 9600 M10. I therefore had to cope with the instabilities of the ATI fglrx driver (system freezes) when I wanted Google Earth to work. However, a came over some instructions on how to make it work: http://www.bramschoenmakers.nl/node/315 I already had accellerated 3D when using the radeon driver, but Google Earth was still extremely slow. But the driconf settings given at the above web page did the trick, and now Google Earth is working beautifully, apart for a 1min startup delay. (NB! I had to use ~/.drirc, not ~/.driconf for the driconf configuration filename on my Debian Unstable system) Since many are complaining about instabilities in the fglrx-driver, and quite a few are probably using it to make Google Earth work, maybe the page mentioned above should be linked to from the radeon driver webpages? Best regards, Torquil Sørensen
