https://bugs.freedesktop.org/show_bug.cgi?id=34462 Summary: 180 second hang on boot, DRM doesn't seem to initialize (firmware issue?) Product: DRI Version: unspecified Platform: x86 (IA32) OS/Version: Linux (All) Status: NEW Severity: normal Priority: medium Component: DRM/Radeon AssignedTo: dri-devel@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx ReportedBy: owen.riddy@xxxxxxxxx Created an attachment (id=43540) --> (https://bugs.freedesktop.org/attachment.cgi?id=43540) dmesg from Debian Unstable, fails to load I have a Radeon 3450 graphics card and have been using Debian Squeeze (linux 2.6.32). The card was/is very well supported by the radeon graphics driver, and firmware was being properly loaded (Debian splits the firmware into a separate package from the kernel). Whenever I compiled a newer vanilla kernel KMS didn't work (starting with 2.6.33, I believe. It was a while ago) and X wouldn't load. Every so often I tried a different kernel, and the problem remained. On X, the system would completely hang with a blank screen (I couldn't access any virtual terminals). I assumed I'd mis-configured my kernel and gave up. Debian has now upgraded to linux 2.6.37-1 and this image seems to have the same problem. After upgrading, I get a suspicious 180 second pause when the kernel "populates /dev", which I now attribute to a bug. I'm getting an error message about modprobe blocking (in dmesg). I suspect firmware loading problems: Wheezy (fails, 2.6.37): dmesg | grep -C 4 icroc [ 4.325551] [drm] radeon: 256M of VRAM memory ready [ 4.325554] [drm] radeon: 512M of GTT memory ready.
