Intermittent problem with laptop display

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

 



I am running XFree86 4.3.0 with gentoo kernel 2.6.1.

My GPU is a dual-head Mobility Radeon 7500. This hardware appears to be
correctly recognised and the driver loaded. 

The problem that I have is that occasionally (but fairly frequently)
when starting or closing X my screen becomes filled with lines and other
rubbish. I cannot predictably replicate this and I have no idea why
sometimes it works and other times it does not. 

I can recover from the problem by doing a blind Ctrl-Alt-Backspace
followed by startx, sometimes several times.

I cannot enclose my logs or config file for technical reason, but I am
fairly sure that they are correct, since when X actually works it works
perfectly.
