[Bug 30447] Re: Lockup problems with both the free xorg ATI driver and the proprietary fglrx driver, using various ATI cards

[Luka Renko]

HW: HP nw8240 with ATI FireGL V5000 PCIE (x700).
I have tested this again on 6.06 release (Kubuntu DVD) after clean install. 

I can confirm that this problem does not occur with "ati" driver and  I
think that description should be changed (only fglrx) and task for
xserver-xorg-driver-ati package should be Rejected.

With fglrx driver, I can say that the problem is only reproducable in
50-70% of the times that xserver is restarted (typically end of session
in KDE) with latest 8.25.18 driver. With older drivers I got the hang of
the system always (100% reproducable).

I have also tried the hint from Francesco (also mentioned in
http://www.stanchina.net/~flavio/debian/fglrx-installer.html), but it
does not help on my system. ;-(
