Priority: medium Bug ID: 60879 Assignee: dri-devel@lists.freedesktop.org Summary: X11 can't start with acceleration enabled Severity: blocker Classification: Unclassified OS: Linux (All) Reporter: mustrumr97@gmail.com Hardware: x86-64 (AMD64) Status: NEW Version: unspecified Component: DRM/Radeon Product: DRI
Created attachment 74857 --> https://bugs.freedesktop.org/attachment.cgi?id=74857&action=edit Screenshot of Xorg
I've recently bought a Radeon 7000 graphics card - Sapphire Radeon HD 7870 XT. I enabled glamor in xorg.conf.
The X server fails to start with glamor enabled. For 10 seconds it shows nothing. I've attached a screenshot taken with my mobile phone after that. After killing X the monitor turns off as if the GPU is off (probably true). X works if I disable glamor. However this way I'd be forced to use swrast. xorg-xserver - 1.13.2 xf86-video-ati - git or 7.1.0 (both tried) glamor - git or 0.5 (both tried) libdrm - git or 2.4.42 (both tried) kernel - git or 3.7.7 (both tried) mesa - git
weston also fails to start. It just shows a black screen with a white stripe on top. Killing it returns me to a tty.
I'll attach parts of the kernel log when starting Xorg and weston.
