[HD 3300] fglrx crashes if 790gx set to Sideport Only

[tsh]

As mentioned in the ati wiki, but seemingly no bug report:
http://wiki.cchtml.com/index.php/Troubleshooting
The 790GX integrated graphics supports sideport memory, or UMA, or both. Sideport is 128Mb, should be enough, but unless sideport and UMA is enabled, my machine locks up completely during boot. MB is ASRock A790GMH/128, Cpu is Phenom II 720. Exists with both 9.4 and 9.5 of the ati driver.

Just to give some confirmation: I was able to reproduce this on my MSI 790GX-G65 mobo.

I've posted a new version of the -fglrx driver to our xorg-edgers PPA,
would you mind testing it either on Jaunty or Karmic and see if it
resolves this bug?

Get fglrx 8.620 here:

Fixed by 8.620, able to set sideport only. X works, no crashing.

Thanks for letting us know the issue is resolved.
