I'm assuming this is a single headed radeon? It seems to be lacking a connector table and is getting the default connector setup. I probably need to add a special case fall back for single crtc chips.

Can you try again with ati git master or 6.7.193?

The same happens for the current 'Fedora' development tree, see

  https://bugzilla.redhat.com/show_bug.cgi?id=261021

and references herein. So, this bug is not restricted to 'FreeBSD' but also afflicts 'GNU/Linux' systems.

Issue persists for all 6.7.x driver versions including 6.7.194 as well as the current 'git' tree as of 2007-09-29.

Hardware setup consists of an ATI Radeon AIW (ATI Technologies Inc Radeon R100 QD [Radeon 7200]) to which an HP A4576A 21" CRT is connected via the analog VGA D-SUB15 connector. This configuration never caused problems up to driver version 6.6.3.

*** Bug 12296 has been marked as a duplicate of this bug. ***

I should have a fix for this in the next few days (as soon as I get some time).

This should be fixed, but there may be other places where the code falls down on single crtc cards (I don't actually have one to test). If you find any other problems let me know.

commit: 0ca184c3c35032df39ea7ce5d2d4aba1a97b6426

Works partially for me. After adding a GIT-enabled overlay (primozic's) and recompiling libdrm and xf86-video-ati the xserver starts, seems like with the dpi changed and only at 75Hz -but that's a whole different can of worms, same as trying EXA ;), and my xorg.conf is mostly automatic detection as I reported on the duplicate https://bugs.freedesktop.org/show_bug.cgi?id=12296 .

However: if after starting X I change to a VT the server hangs and leaves the screen in standby mode. That didn't happen before with 6.6.3. It doesn't hang my system fully though: when I xstart-ed I couldn't do anything but rebooting by ctrl-alt-sys-b as my screen was in standby and changing the VT didn't work. However if started by gdm it rebooted itself perfectly after a while (still in standby until the server started).

As said in #12296, I'm using 2.6.22-kamikaze9 with radeonfb and xserver 1.4-r2 from portage; just libdrm and xf86-video-ati are from git (as specified in the dependencies of the ebuild; if that could be a source of problem I can pull everything from git instead with the 9999 ebuilds). I didn't rebuild nothing but the ati driver after emerging git's libdrm and I have debug desactivated, so this should still not be a confirmed problem - so I will recompile everything ASAP with it and without fomit-frame-pointer (mesa, mesa-progs, x11-drm, xorg-server, libdrm). By now the backtrace is meaningless:

This can be just a matter of rebuilding so I won't panic yet :D, or perhaps another tiny change somewhere else as said.

After rebuilding the 'xorg-x11-drv-ati-6.7.194-2.fc8' driver package on an otherwise up to date 'Fedora rawhide' system, the X server starts up correctly which means that the main issue has gone away. However, the X server now ignores the 1400x1050 mode entry in xorg.xonf and defaults to 1280x1024 at 85Hz which it didn't do before. After removing the 1400x1050 mode entry from xorg.conf, the X server still defaults to 1280x1024 at 85Hz but at least now, the GNOME display preferences allow the user to change the resolution to 1600x1200 at 75 Hz whereas before, only lower resolutions were present. However, the 1400x1050 mode has disappeared completely. It has to be added though that the Fedora X server has been patched, so this observation might not apply to upstream Xorg.
Note that the monitor device is an HP A4576A 21" CRT for which 1400x1050 is the natural resolution both in terms of DPI and aspect ratio (4/3).
When switching to a virtual console, the monitor powers off. It is still possible to switch back to vt7 but then, the X server simply restarts. It is also possible to reboot the system via ctrl-alt-del. It seems that switching to a virtual console makes the X server crash as already reported in comment #11. The relevant entries in Xorg.0.log related to the crash are:

Can you attach your xorg log? I suspect your monitor doesn't have a mode in the edid for 1400x1050. The edid's preferred mode is probably 1280x1024@85, that's why it's getting set to that by default. you can manually add the 1400x1050 mode:
xrandr --newmode <1400x1050 modeline>
xrandr --addmode VGA-0 <1400x1050 mode name>

At the moment I only add the screen modes to the LVDS output (and even then I probably shouldn't). The problem is, with randr, which output to you want the screen modes added to? You may not want them on all outputs. You should be able to add a monitor section for each output and add the modes you want there, but I'm not sure the server adds them properly (I need to double check that).

Finally, can you attach the backtrace from the new VT switch crash?

As I feared rebuilding everything didn't help; I still get the crash when switching as happens to #12. However I can't get a proper backtrace; after rebuilding without fomit-frame-pointer and with debug enabled and crashing while switching, the Xorg log still only shows

Trying to debug via gdb didn't work neither; when attaching to the server it hangs it with error 0xffffe410 in __kernel_vsyscall () and backtrace

I guess that is a problem of my own system, but I accept any suggestions to get a proper bt. I'll attach a full gdb log of this non-completely-related crash though, and wait for further news.

Where does it say error? :) It's just the backtrace at the time gdb attaches to the process, which implicitly stops its execution. At that point, enter

handle SIGUSR1 nostop

to make gdb ignore the signals involved in VT switches, then

continue

to continue execution of the X server. Then get the backtrace once it hits the SIGSEGV.

Ok, sorry about that :*), I'm not that used to gdb yet. After the handle and continuing, when I change to a VT I get the following gdb log:

Program received signal SIGSEGV, Segmentation fault.

The first sigsegv seems inside glibc, as I have to continue to get the xorg one. Unfortunately I don't have glibc with USE=debug; if necesary I will recompile it but I foresee major breakage, even not changing versions if I do that. Just in case, glibc is 2.6.1 with useflags (glibc-omitfp nls -debug -glibc-compat20 -hardened -multilib -profile -selinux).

As I saw something about XAA I tried with EXA instead, but the backtrace is pretty much the same, just without the XAALeaveVT line:

Ok, I will try that. I'm simply surprised that a section like

Section "Screen"
        Identifier "Screen0"
        Device "Videocard0"
        DefaultDepth 24
        SubSection "Display"
                Viewport 0 0
                Depth 24
                Modes "1400x1050"
        EndSubSection
EndSection

doesn't work anymore. All this EDID/xrandr magic is certainly great but when the user decides to overrule this autodetection stuff [following standard xorg.conf conventions], one would expect his choices to be honoured.

Concerning the crash backtrace when switching to a virtual console, I'm on a single node network, and the Xdbg script trick devised at the FDO pages doesn't seem to work here because the X server will not even start up, so it's impossible to switch to a virtual console in order to trigger the segmentation fault. The monitor simply powers off upon start of the X server. Any hint howto proceed any further? The Xdgb script is:

thus is the price of progress. In the randr world the xorg.conf changes a bit as the screen section no longer maps to a single monitor. While on a card like yours with a single crtc and output it's easy to wonder why the mode listed there doesn't get added, but consider a card with a local LVDS panel, a DVI port, a VGA port, and a TV out port. Which output should be mode get added to? all of them? what if your laptop panel only supports 1024x768? Also when you say 1400x1050 what mode exactly do you mean 1400x1050@60Hz? 1400x10505@85Hz? 72Hz? With randr you can assign hardcoded/overridden monitor sections to each output, e.g.,

Section "Device"
        Identifier "My Radeon"
        Driver "ati"
        Option "Monitor-VGA-0" "My Monitor"
EndSection

Section "Monitor"
        Identifier "My Monitor"
        ...
EndSection

within the monitor section you can specify new modelines you want to use as well as specify the orientation of the monitor in relation to the other monitors driven by the same card (in the case of dualhead cards). Unfortunately, I think there are still some issues to be worked out with this method in the xserver. See this page for more:
http://www.intellinuxgraphics.org/dualhead.html

Most definitely: I have rebuilt 'the xorg-x11-drv-ati-6.7.194-2.fc8' driver package using a tar-ball produced from the current git tree, and now I'm actually able to switch between X and virtual consoles at will without crash. Great work!
The issue thus seems to be solved, I now have to get familiar with the new Xrandr stuff though ..

Excellent! I'll go ahead and close this bug then.

There may be some issues there as well. Let me know if you run into anything, I need to review that stuff better myself. I think the xserver may need some fixes.
