Priority: medium Bug ID: 56878 Assignee: dri-devel@lists.freedesktop.org Summary: FireGL Mobility T2: WebGL under firefox16 freezes system Severity: normal Classification: Unclassified OS: Linux (All) Reporter: miri@turboprinzessin.de Hardware: x86 (IA32) Status: NEW Version: XOrg CVS Component: DRM/Radeon Product: DRI
Created attachment 69702 --> https://bugs.freedesktop.org/attachment.cgi?id=69702&action=edit kernel messages of the crash
When opening http://lwn.net/Articles/522127/ with firefox16 the screen goes black for a moment and then reappears for a few seconds after which it goes black again. This cycle goes on a few times after which the system completely locks up (even Magic Sysrq seems to have no effect).
I don't know if it is related but sometimes opening huge images in firefox causes X to crash, too. This, however, doesn't freeze the kernel and beside the crash itself everything works normally afterwards.
kernel: 3.6.6 xorg-server: 1.13.0 xf86-video-ati: 7.0.0 mesa: 9.0
