[HD2400] crashes in xf86CrtcSetMode+0x5da (CD_INVALID_OPCODE)

Thanks for your bug report. That bulletproofX starts, is because the default radeon driver crashes, and is hence a bug in the -ati package. Using radeonhd instead is a good workaround.

Can you please install the xserver-xorg-video-ati-dbg and xserver-xorg-video-radeon-dbg packages and try again (with "ati" or no driver specified) so that we can get a full backtrace?

Done. Here are logs...
Or it was something else needed with dbg's?

Why X does not start radeonhd after radeon crashes?

It seems like the debug symbols are still missing:
2: /usr/lib/xorg/modules/drivers//radeon_drv.so [0xb7b81d41]

Make sure you really installed both debug packages and restart the X server. Maybe you installed the -dbg package for radeonhd instead?

Please just attach the Xorg.0.log directly next time.

> Why X does not start radeonhd after radeon crashes?
radeon is not supposed to crash. We don't design for failure :)

I've installed both (ati, radeon) dbg packages with their dependencies (r128, mach64 dbg's), even reinstalling ati and radeon driver packages.
...maybe X was not fully restarted after that... I tried ctrl+alt+backspace, stopping gdm by init script, so there were no gdm or Xorg in "ps -A" output.
After starting it again there were no major changes in the log.

Thanks, seems like those -dbg packages don't help. Can you please try installing them (ati, radeon, + corresponding -dbg packages) from my PPA?

They just work.

Excellent. The Intrepid -ati package was just updated to include this revision. Can you please upgrade (to version 1:6.9.0+git20081003.f9826a56-0ubuntu2) and verify that it also works?

It' not working.
After upgrading ati driver nothing changed, after upgrading radeon driver interval between screen flicks gone, but still it does not work.

I will post log with -dbg packages after 3-4 hours. Now I have no time, so just without them...

Now with all upgraded drivers and dbg's and dependencies.
Screen flickers differently with new drivers, and error in acceleration initialization added.

Thanks. Actually I see that my test packages disable DRI, and maybe this avoids the crashing part. There are few code changes between my package (c359c2a3) and the new in Intrepid (f9826a56), I think the one that reenables DRI is http://cgit.freedesktop.org/xorg/driver/xf86-video-ati/diff/src/radeon_driver.c?id=346228b20c69a965c9e7d67157f42c1d36a5b6c3

I think the important part of the log is this:
(EE) RADEON(0): ParseTable said: CD_INVALID_OPCODE

This should be reported upstream as quickly as possible. Would you be able to do it?

Sorry, can't find where to report. Is it bugs.freedesktop.org?

Yes, bugs.freedesktop.org (Product=xorg, Component=Driver/Radeon).

Hi Psyh,

We've recently updated the -ati driver to the latest git version, and suspect it may have fixed this issue.
Can you please test either by upgrading to latest or testing a daily live cd (from cdimage.ubuntu.com)?

...I see only old version 1:6.9.0+git20081003.f9826a56-0ubuntu2 on Ubuntu Packages.

Bad changes on RC. Even bulletproofx does not start, and radeonhd drivers are missing.

Hi Psy,

Are you able to reproduce this issue on Jaunty? If so, what we need is a detailed trace with debug symbols - see http://wiki.ubuntu.com/X/Backtracing for directions.

On Jaunty Alpha 4 X starts normal, ati driver works.
...touchpad doesn't though.
But this bug seems to be fixed in Jaunty.

Thanks, closing.
