           Summary: X with ati/radeon driver gets stuck in loop with
                    PreferredMode set
           Product: xorg
           Version: unspecified
          Platform: Other
        OS/Version: All
            Status: NEW
          Severity: normal
          Priority: medium
         Component: Driver/Radeon
        AssignedTo: xorg-driver-ati at lists.x.org
        ReportedBy: paul at luon.net
         QAContact: xorg-team at lists.x.org


When a PreferredMode is set in a Monitor section, X starts but immediately gets
stuck in a loop (100% CPU usage) without making it to actually displaying
anything.  X will not respond to any signals except for KILL.
I have seen this happen with all ati driver versions from the past 3, 4 months
(up until and including 6.7.198~git20080102.30cab1db) on both an ATI Radeon
9200 Pro and ATI X800 XL.

N.B. The options in the Device section have no effect on the problem.
