The frame-rate at 24Hz is extremely poor for normal desktop usage.
If the highest resolution, aka 1080p, uses that refresh rate then the desktop will default to that frame-rate.
Other progressive modes don't exhibit any issue.

Hi Alberto,
I think the driver should only support resolutions that are progressive, but also at least of 50Hz.
Why do you think so?, the 24Hz resolution seems to be the native one of the display.

Mhm, no idea why an interlaced resolution would cause a crash. Maybe some miscalculation in the display code.
But apart from that if you just connected your PC to a TV I also wouldn't recommend using an interlaced resolution in the first place.
See those resolutions only exists for backward compatibility with analog hardware.
I think we would just disable those modes instead of searching for the bug.

I guessed so.
The GPU is a Radeon HD5870, and the screen is an old Telefunken TV (TLFK22LEDPVR1).
Since my real display got into repair I used this TV meanwhile, and to my surprise it froze the system.

Hi Alberto,
well what hardware do you have?
Interlaced resolutions are not used any more on modern hardware, so they
are not well tested.

Christian.
