Even in 2.6.21.4 (current stable), the kernel tree's radeon driver is |
| 17 |
buggy causing 100% CPU usage and a screen of death. (modprobe radeon, |
| 18 |
then after a few minutes, the local system is dead and I need to use |
| 19 |
SSH to read dmesg. But that doesn't help much because there is no |
| 20 |
configuration option in the kernel to make the radeon driver output |
| 21 |
with debug verbosity. But it did help a little: my card is Mobility |
| 22 |
Radeon X600 (RV480) and the drm driver is using R300 microcode, which |
| 23 |
means that the driver is very buggy). |
| 24 |
|
| 25 |
At least there is no kernel panic, which means that I can <Magic>S, |
| 26 |
<Magic>B, where <Magic> is <Alt><SysRq> |
