Since the last radeon/xorg/mesa update things have been rather ropey on two |
| 2 |
different boxen, both of which run stable arch with enlightenment as a |
| 3 |
desktop. On one of them (ATI Mobility Radeon HD 4670) it has been impossible |
| 4 |
to work in LibreOffice without a complete lock up of the desktop. On the |
| 5 |
second more modern system running a Kaveri APU things are more stable, but |
| 6 |
crashes will occur there too eventually. |

From what I have noticed the desktop appears to freeze completely when I |
| 9 |
happen to hover over a region in an application window, which generates a |
| 10 |
tooltip popup. The popup boundary shows up faintly, its content does not and |
| 11 |
the desktop is by then completely frozen. Ctrl+Alt+End which should restart |
| 12 |
the composer, does not. Ctrl+Alt+Backspace kills the X session leaving a |
| 13 |
number of defunct elements behind, like gkrellm. |

This is what Xorg.0.log shows: |

Any idea how I can overcome this problem. I makes any work on the desktop a |
| 44 |
precarious activity, but especially so on LO which is guaranteed to crash. |
