Updated kernel - 2nd issue - compiz whitescreens (radeon driver)

[Date Prev][Date Next][Thread Prev][Thread Next][Date Index][Thread Index]



Guys,

One other issue I am having with the box after the kernel update is that compiz whitescreens now. (that usually means a driver wasn't recompiled, but this is with the stock xf86-video-ati package). Compiz starts just fine, I get the splash screen, but everything is white. I have had that a number of times when I have forgotten to recompile a driver after a kernel update, but not when using a stock driver.

The package I have is:

  xf86-video-ati-6.13.0-1-x86_64.pkg.tar.xz

(I checked with lsmod and the radeon driver was loaded just fine)

Currently I am not using an xorg.conf, so everything is from the default settings. Not long ago I posted about how impressed I was with the new kernel and ati driver, but something seems to be out of whack now. What can I try to get compiz running again?

(I got this much info before being stuck by the UTF-8 issue, so we will have to fix that one before I can boot to work on this compiz issue)

Thanks again for your help.
