problems with radeonfb in linux-2.6.11-rc3
Hi !
I have some problems with the new 2.6.11-rc3 patch...
I normally have the radeonfb activated and use a bigger console...
but now the display (a 17inch tft) blanks when the framebuffer is loaded, using "vga=normal" doesn't help, then i'm able to see a curser jumping around on the bottom of the screen!
Currently I've to completely disable the radeonfb...
I'm using a Radeon 9600XT and there are no error-messages in syslog....
and i hope i can give also another bug-report, although I think its a problem with the new dri-code...
I'm using a cvs-snapshot of x.org and with the newer kernels 2.6.11-XXX or a cvs-snapshot of drm my screen is completely "distorted", but i can see the edges of windows...so it seems to be a problem with a correct order of the horizontal lines...
good luck ;-)
thx and wkr,
Armin
PS: I'm using amd64 version of slackware-current (core-packages are not original....)

Sounds like it could be related to the recently added colour buffer tiling... CC'ing dri-devel, please follow up there only about this problem. Does your X server log contain 'Color tiling enabled by default'? If so, does Option "ColorTiling" "off" fix the problem?
