By this, do you mean the "radeon" X driver as well?

If I load the "radeon" kernel module (at boot time) and in
the xorg.conf I use the ATI free device section with:

Driver "radeon" or Driver "ati"

xdvi doesn't crash at all.

If I load the "fglrx" kernel module (insted of the "radeon" one,
at boot time) and in the xorg.conf I use the ATI no_free device
section with:

Driver "fglrx"

xdvi crashes very quikly.

Did I answer at your question?
Comment 3 Donnie Berkholz (RETIRED) gentoo-dev 2005-05-23 08:46:23 UTC
Yep.
Comment 4 Luca Barbato gentoo-dev 2005-05-23 09:08:50 UTC
please attach a dmesg log post chrash
Comment 5 Jakub Moc (RETIRED) gentoo-dev 2006-11-10 12:37:40 UTC
No response from user. If you can still reproduce the problem with up-to-date drivers, then attach the info requested in Comment #4 and reopen then. Thanks.
