           Summary: xorg freeze with xchat and r6xx-r7xx-support drivers
           Product: xorg
           Version: git
          Platform: Other
        OS/Version: All
            Status: NEW
          Severity: normal
          Priority: medium
         Component: Driver/Radeon
        AssignedTo: xorg-driver-ati at lists.x.org
        ReportedBy: twoerner at redhat.com
         QAContact: xorg-team at lists.x.org


Using the r6xx-r7xx-support drivers and xchat leads to a frozen X server. The
mouse is still smoothly movable, but all applications are frozen. Restarting
the X server is possible after killing the actual, but there is some screen
corruption in the first lines of the screen afterwards: Some black lines with 8
pixel horizontal length.

The system is a Fedora F11 (rawhide) with the latest packages. The drm,
xf86-video-ati and xf86-video-radeonhd drivers are the latest versions from the
r6xx-r7xx-suppor GIT branches. 

The problem occurs with the radeon and radeonhd driver. I have tested it with
two cards: Radeon HD 2600XT and HD 3870.

Xorg configuration for the radeon driver:

Section "Device"
        Identifier  "Videocard0"
        Driver      "radeon"
        VendorName  "Videocard vendor"
        BoardName   "ATI Radeon HD3870"
        Option      "DRI" "on"
        Option      "AccelMethod" "EXA"
        Option      "EXAVSync" "on"
        BusID       "PCI:1:0:0"
EndSection
