I'm no ATI expert (at all - haven't used an ATI card since the 9700 days), |
| 20 |
but the above dmesg line would indicate that the GPU itself hung - maybe a |
| 21 |
BIOS/FW update (since this GPU is integrated on the MB) would be a good idea |
| 22 |
to try? It still, of course, could be a driver issue - if the driver is |
| 23 |
sending bad commands and getting the GPU into an invalid state, this could |
| 24 |
happen, but my first thought would be that it is a FW or HW issue... |
