Bug 172447 – ati-drivers-3.34.8 crashes system after closing a 3d game

• Product: Gentoo Linux
• Status: RESOLVED FIXED

[Description ape 2007-03-27 19:36:55 UTC]

My system screws up after closing sauerbraten. I tried it also with xorg-x11 opengl setting and it worked, so i think there is something wrong with the ati-drivers. It also happens after playing about 5 minutes counter-strike.



Reproducible: Always

Steps to Reproduce:
1.Run sauerbraten
2.quit sauerbraten
3.

Actual Results:  
The display freezes and the system locks hard, i can't press any key.

Complaints about proprietary drivers go upstream, we can't fix them.

[Comment 3 Marien Zwart (RETIRED) 2007-03-28 14:42:15 UTC]

If you pastebin /var/log/Xorg.0.log and dmesg I'll have a look for anything obviously suspicious, but you'll probably have to pass this on to ati, there's not a lot we can do about this kind of problem.

thanks, maybe theres something wrong with my config?

[Comment 7 Marien Zwart (RETIRED) 2007-03-28 16:55:43 UTC]

only skimmed it, but only see two oddities: you're using a non-highmem kernel with >= 1 G of ram (almost certainly unrelated, but consider fixing it to actually use all your ram :) and there is no reference to agpgart in dmesg. Do you have the right agp-related options enabled in your kernel config (support for your motherboard chipset under agp in device drivers -> character devices)?

[Comment 8 ape 2007-03-28 20:09:35 UTC]

Thank you, i didn't realize it :>. I changed it, but it doesn't make any difference :/

[Comment 9 ape 2007-03-31 08:45:02 UTC]

I found a solution.
It can be fixed by adding these lines in the device section of the xorg.conf

Option "Capabilities" "0x00000800"
Option "KernelModuleParm" "locked-userpages=0"
