Bug Description

I installed dapper snapshot (2006-13-02) and I have not managed to get X in workable state. Gdm starts bug cursor is a rectangle and login dialog is garbled too. Breezy worked fine on that machine.

xorg.conf: (default dpkg-reconfigure generated)

        Driver "radeon"

Does this still happen with the latest release? The ati driver has received quite some fixes since your report.

I tested with current (26.04.2006) dapper liveCD and it doesn't work. Now display adapter won't get interrupt according to /proc/interrupts.

I'd to boot safe mode because in normal mode gdm was blank and I couldn't change to VTx. Vesa-mode won't work either, so this is more kernel/Xorg core bug than radeon driver bug?

Could you try this with Dapper RC please?

I tested with final Dapper 6.06 desktop CD and still having problems. I got desktop, but no icons or text on panel/menus. Mouse cursor is now fine. I also got random pieces of graphics from previous session, so there is still some memory allocation errors.

Quite an interesting problem. Have you tried Ubuntu 6.10, Tommi, or given up hope / changed hardware?

Yes, I've tested with 6.10 and Feisty herd 3, always same situation. I'm using still Breezy.

Today I changed motherboard and now Feisty works fine with this display adapter. You can close this bug.
