After a couple hours KDE freezes with ati-drivers (10.10 and 10.11). Blue boxes appear at the edge of the monitor and the mouse/keyboard become unresponsive. After a 2-10 minutes the boxes disappear, but the system is still unresponsive. SSH'ing into the system works, but restarting KDM fails because a process cannot be stopped. Reproducible: Always Steps to Reproduce: 1. Run KDE for >2 hours with FGLRX at the video card driver 2. 3.

This is a funny one. I'm using x11-libs/libX11-1.4.0 too, but for now i never saw such a problem. I'm on kde 4.5.3 and i use it for a lot longer then 2 hours. Let's see if someone else get this, to try to understand what's happening.
For the record I'm running KDE 4.5.3 as well and I have an asus 5770. When I emerge libX11-1.3.4 or 1.3.6 the problem goes away. My xorg.conf is as follows, Section "ServerLayout" Identifier "aticonfig Layout" Screen 0 "aticonfig-Screen[0]-0" 0 0 EndSection Section "Module" # Load "glx" EndSection Section "Monitor" Identifier "aticonfig-Monitor[0]-0" Option "VendorName" "ATI Proprietary Driver" Option "ModelName" "Generic Autodetecting Monitor" Option "DPMS" "true" EndSection Section "Device" Identifier "aticonfig-Device[0]-0" # Driver "radeon" Driver "fglrx" BusID "PCI:3:0:0" EndSection Section "Screen" Identifier "aticonfig-Screen[0]-0" Device "aticonfig-Device[0]-0" Monitor "aticonfig-Monitor[0]-0" DefaultDepth 24 SubSection "Display" Viewport 0 0 Depth 24 EndSubSection EndSection Section "Files" ModulePath "/usr/lib64/xorg/modules" ModulePath "/usr/lib64/opengl/xorg-x11/extensions/" EndSection
by the way you are using a deprecated profile: 2008.0/desktop. I have no idea if this can change something, but it is definetly worth to update. also you are using an old portage. There is 2.2.0_alpha6 out.
I'm using funtoo, which explains my profile version and portage. I checked with the funtoo devs and libX11 was not changed.
I'm sorry but, in either case we don't support funtoo, until it can be confirmed with a standard Gentoo setup, the bug has to be considered Funtoo-specific. I will not close this bug for a while to see if this happens with gentoo too. So if someone has this problem on *gentoo* please comment :)
Come on, it is gentoo enough for this showcase :) Anyway is anything suspicious in xorg log or dmesg or system log? Without any data from the machine we need cristal bowl to figure out whats goin' on :)
Ok boss :) . To be clear my "for a while" means months since this kind of issues are hard to see. dmesg output might be usefull that's true. Take a look at Xorg.0.log and syslog too, but i expect nothing strange from them.
I emerged the new ati-drivers (10.12) and updated the rest of world (including libX11) and the problem no longer occurs.
I'm glad to hear that :) Enjoy it ^_^
