Comment 15 for bug 507148

I talked to airlied about this today, and he suggests it's a kernel issue fixed by some commits upstream:

<bryceh> agd5f, would you mind taking a look at http://bugs.freedesktop.org/show_bug.cgi?id=26302 ? I've had a bunch of people inquiring about that problem.
<airlied> bryceh: you should maybe get some of the r100 fixes from 2.6.33
<airlied> 47381156a8f0d793bacfa346cc4cc515399525f7 will help a bit
<bryceh> airlied, ok thanks
<airlied> but you might need some other bits around it
 if you are really intent on shipping 2.6.32 with KMS enabled it would be nice to backport 2.6.33 radeon into it
 otherwise I doubt we can really help you
 though I expect there are still some r100 issues
 its just not high on anyone's priority list
<bryceh> airlied, will help be provided for the 2.6.33 radeon bits once development focus has moved to 2.6.34?
<airlied> bryceh: yes as we'll be maintaining them for a while longer
<airlied> bryceh: like if you ship 2.6.32 bits please tuirn off KMS
<airlied> I'd rather not be flooded with users complainging in here

Forwarding the bug to the kernel team to ensure these patches are included to solve this problem.
