Priority: medium Bug ID: 76297 Assignee: dri-devel@lists.freedesktop.org Summary: open source radeon drivers for old graphics cards crash the system while booting kernels 3.12+ Severity: critical Classification: Unclassified OS: Linux (All) Reporter: epp942@gmail.com Hardware: x86-64 (AMD64) Status: NEW Version: XOrg CVS Component: DRM/Radeon Product: DRI
Created attachment 95971 --> https://bugs.freedesktop.org/attachment.cgi?id=95971&action=edit Dmesg
There is no legacy driver for kernel 3.12+ for ati cards and now there is no open source drivers that can be used with kernel 3.12+ , the issue is that while it tries to load module radeon the whole system hangs on boot tried with kernels 3.12 and 3.13 and 3.14 on 3.14 once every 5-10 boots it MAYBE boot with radeon.dpm=0 but this is really random and may not happen for 1 day and may happen 2 times in a row but only with 3.14 on 3.12 and 3.13 system freeze is 100%. I put the dmesg as attachment hope i can help any other way you need me cause there is no driver available for radeon 2-3-4k anymore open or not so we can work with
