fglrx (8.600) crashes on X1600 mobility

[Patrick Cornelissen]

I've upgraded to Jaunty, but the fglrx that was supposed to work (regarding the blog entries concerning fglrx) doesn't.

The system freezes when I start X. BTW: I am using Dualhead.
The radeon driver is slow as hell, so it's not an alternative.

My Hardware:

ATI Technologies Inc M56P [Radeon Mobility X1600] rev 0, ChipID = 0x71c5

The radoen driver also said this in xorg.log

(II) RADEON(0): ATOM BIOS Rom:
        SubsystemVendorID: 0x103c SubsystemID: 0x309f
        IOBaseAddress: 0x4000
        Filename: BR21601.BIN
        BIOS Bootup Message:
HP AngelFire3.0(EFL80) M56-P 256M ATOM BIOS 425e/378m

Hi cornelis-p-c-software,

Please attach the output of `lspci -vvnn`, and attach your /var/log/Xorg.0.log (and maybe Xorg.0.log.old) file from after reproducing this issue. If you've made any customizations to your /etc/X11/xorg.conf please attach that as well.

I used several xorg.conf files, the default one resulted also in a crash.
I have attached the lspci output.

When I'm at home from work I'll reproduce the xorg.log After I switched back to the radeon driver the old logfiles got overwritten.

Argh, sorry. I have reinstalled my system with 8.10...
I won't have time today for another reinstall cycle, so I'll postpone the log file to tomorrow.

upgrade did not succeed, there is a broken repository...
I think I'll try again next week after the holidays...
