Fedora :: Firefox 3.5 Locking F11 With Amd Radeon Xpress 200 Chipset?
Aug 2, 2009
I'm still having problems with firefox 3.5 on Fedora 11. My computer freezes; and it takes a power-off reset to unlock it. Keyboard and display are unresponsive (x-server crash). It crashes even with Firefox 3.5 running in safe mode.
Configuration:
Hardware:ATI Radeon� XPRESS 200 Chipset
Kernel: 2.6.29.6-217.2.3.fc11.i586 #1 SMP i686 athlon i386
firefox.i586 3.5.1-3.fc11
flash-plugin.i386 10.0.32.18-release @adobe-linux-i386
Koji was used to update kernel and firefox. Thanks to wangmaster and other members, I was able to install Firefox 3.0.12, which is run using a different profile. Do I need a debug version of Firefox for a dump? Do I need to send this AMD machine to the landfill or North Carolina?

I have been using Debian for a few weeks now (love it, besides it being a little bulky). and have everything going besides wireless and my graphics card, the former being less important to me. I haven't had any problems running Debian without a graphics card, but I know I will need it to play games, configure a 3d desktop if I choose, etc...

I have an Aspire 5100 with ATI Radeon Xpress 1100 and have been happily running Ubuntu 8.10 until now when support has ended. I continued with 8.10 because the graphics have been fine with my system.I also have 10.10 installed and apart from the graphics, I would have no problem changing/upgrading.The problem is the glare, after a while it is very hard to work on.Is there anything I can do that's not to technical to reduce the glare.

I'm running Ubuntu 10.04 on a PC with the integrated Radeon X200 card. Currently, I have the free Radeon drivers, but they're either awful or aren't working properly. I get some wonky graphics errors, and any 3D game crashes as soon as the 3D graphics are to be displayed.
My card is no longer supported by fglrx. What can I do?

I can usually solve this type of problem myself, but this time around I'm totally stumped. Can anyone lend a hand? A little background: I have an HP Pavilion ZV6233NR with no screen installed, connected through the VGA to my LCD TV. This is a somewhat older desktop replacement laptop. I have repurposed it to run as both a server and a media center (e.g. it connects to my TV). I'm upgrading from Debian Etch to Debian Squeeze (never installed Lenny). With Etch, I used the proprietary fglrx driver, however the fglrx package in Squeeze doesn't support such old hardware (obviously), but the new foss radeon driver does.
The problem: First, suppose I run X with no arguments, the (EE) and (WW) lines in /var/log/Xorg.0.log read (excluding missing font files):
(WW) Falling back to old probe method for vesa
(WW) Falling back to old probe method for fbdev
(EE) open /dev/fb0: No such file or directory
[code]....
I've attached the full Xorg.0.log for that second case (radeon driver using the conf file), in case that helps. Three things I've tried (but for all I know bungled, test me if you think I might have):Fresh installation from the CD. (In case I had left over fglrx stuff lying around.) Horizontal and vertical refresh rates for the screen (although I didn't actually look them up in the LCD screen's manual).
Setting modes in the screen section to restrict the resolution and/or color depth.

I have a problem with my video card since I installed Ubuntu Maverick. Compiz is working, I have Desktop effects and everything but.. i have a lot of troubles too. I can't watch full size video in ..... (it's very slow or totally freezing every time i try fullscreen option). Google Earth working, but when zoomed too much (to see map closer), i am seeing a lot of lines and strange pixels.
Everything was working good on CentOS, but after getting into Ubuntu.. something went wrong. I think the problems are coming from the drivers.
I have this drivers installed:
Code:
I followed this guide - https://help.ubuntu.com/community/RadeonDriver - for installing everything again, and I also added the Xorg Edgers PPA [url]. When I have xserver-xorg-video-radeon & ati drivers installed, my system have all the problems listed above and don't have 3d acceleration (which I need a lot for running Cedega and VMWare).
This is output from glxgears (while having the drivers installed)
Code:
And this is glxinfo in verbose mode:
Code:
(notice I have Direct Rendering, but not 3d acceleration, since it have troubles with the driver.. but the file is in the same folder it's searching for it)
When I remove them from the system (purge), and I use only the Edgers PPA and:
Code:
I can watch full size video at ....., my computer hibernates and wakes up after (which is causing a lot of problems if I'm using the xorg-ati & radeon, laptop freezes requiring hard restart). I can use Google Earth without having troubles, but.. still can't run Cedega and VM, because I don't pass the tests for 3d acceleration.
This is output of my glxgears & glxinfo (in verbose) after removing the drivers and restarting X.
Code:

i have this video card 01:05.0 VGA compatible controller: ATI Technologies Inc RC410 [Radeon Xpress 200M] IT suspends but it looks on resume with the opensource radeon driver. It never worked with the open source driver for me. It worked with the proprietary driver but those drivers are no longer compatible with the new xorg(catalyst/fglrx worked in ubuntu 8.04 and 8.10 but no high1er and in debian lenny) My question is:If you have this card and manage to make it resume on a recent distribution please tell me if you did something to make it work or it just worked.
P.S I do not use xorg.conf and i have only open source driver installed,currently i have a ubuntu and a kubuntu installed on this laptop, i did not tried any fix in the present because i tried them before so thuis operating systems are clean(nothing wrong with the libs or configs)

I've got an older HP Pavilion dv8000 laptop with ATI Radeon XPRESS 200M 5955 video. This worked fine out-of-the-box with 13.1. With 13.37 I can't get KDE desktop effects to work, glxgears reports about 50 fps, and the system can suspend but not resume. I have no xorg.conf at all. Here is the glxinfo and current Xorg log. Just to note, this is with Slackware64 13.37 with the multilib stuff installed.

Alright, Lenny has a working "fglrx-driver" package for my laptop, but Squeeze does not. Would it be possible to install the one from Lenny on Squeeze since Squeeze has newer libraries and such? I know I can't install new stuff with older libraries, but can I install the old stuff with newer libraries? I am at the end of my rope here! I mean ATI sucks and we all know this, but I've always found a Linux/open-source alternative that worked, until Squeeze.

I have a computer with an integrated graphics card. It is ati radeon xpress 200 series. It have installed OpenSuse 11.1 on my computer with KDE 4.1. I have heard that we have to manually install ati and nvidia drivers. Or can the open source drivers run my card. has the drivers for my card already been installed. Or should i install it manually. I donot have an internet connection on my pc. but i can download the required files from another computer and bring them to my pc.

I've found that whenever I play a 3D game on Ubuntu, the graphics go crazy and make the game unplayable. I've found this an various games such as SuperTuxKart and Alien Arena.By the way, I'm running an ATi Radeon Xpress 200 (integrated graphics) with the default Ubuntu drivers.

I have a fresh install of suse 11.0 and there is no 3d acceleration available. If I use the suse repository, which driver do I need to enable 3d accesleration? The video is integrated on the motherboard. The box is an hp pavilion a1130n and amd 3500+ processor. I installed the same suse 11.0 on a dell box with an ati 128 rage and 3d was enabled after the install.

i installed kubuntu 9.04 yesterday and updated it with everything that was available, i have ati radeon xpress 1100 and i got everything running fine including kwin effects but i have a small problem i cant figure out how to fix:
When i run glxgears and put any window on top of it, i can still see the 3d gears rolling and i think this same problem is responsible for occasional artifacts on the screen. Its a very minor problem but i would like to see if fixed because i cannot use google earth properly, it seems that any 3d application likes to be focused on the screen, its like they flicker while being overlaid on top of everything.
Also i read the countless threads here complaining about not being able to use fglrx etc because of updated xorg. Well the reason im using 9.04 is because my wireless card alfa awus036h does not work with kernel > 2.6.31 and i have already tried kubuntu 9.10 on this laptop i wasnt having any problem with the display. All the kwin effects ran fine and no distortions of any kind. Seems there is some bug in 9.04.

After dist-upgrade a few days ago, X refuses to kick in.
Xorg.0.log reads
Code:
Fatal server error:
no screens found
Please consult the The X.Org Foundation support at http://wiki.x.org
Please also check the log file at "/var/log/Xorg.0.log" for additional information. lshw reads that Xpress 200M is claimed by radeonfb driver.
At this moment, no fglrx packages are installed.
System is Toshiba laptop.
I do not think ATI dropped support, however, even without fglrx, nothing works.

I replaced an ATI Radeon 9550 with a Radeon X1300/X1550, in hopes of better performance.
My System: P4@3GHz, 1.5Gb RAM, Fedora 12, kernel 2.6.32.10-90.fc12.
Faults: Screen refresh is extremely low. Glxgears outputs 25 FPS. Dragging windows around is sometimes really slow.
What I did so far, in hope of fixing it:
1. Installed 'system-config-display', for providing an xorg.conf
2. Did: yum --enablerepo=rawhide update mesa-dri-drivers-experimental mesa*, fixing this, but to no avail...
I cannot find any errors in the log...I don't know what to do...
I am posting my Xorg.conf, Xorg.0.log and Glxinfo through links to pastebin.com
POST UPDATE:
When running GlxGears, I get a bit of motion, and then the gears freeze for 1 second. And this goes on and on. But...if I move the mouse around, I get 1100FPS!
Now I messed a bit with xorg.conf and the "SWCursor" Option, but the above happens when this option is on "true". On "false" there is no 1100FPS, only the freezing loop...

Server - Ubuntu 10.04.1 lts
Client - Kubuntu 10.10
When I try to open any nfs-mounted file using OpenOffice, I get a pop-up window titled "Document in Use". The text of the message is:
"Document file 'abcde.odt' is locked for editing by:
Unknown User
Open document read-only or open a copy of the document for editing." I then have three options - <Open Read-Only>, <Open Copy>, & <Cancel> If I cp any of these files from the mounted directory to my home dir (not mounted), I can open them without problem.Also, my firefox & thunderbird date are in this mounted directory as well (sym links to ~dan/.mozilla & ~dan/.thunderbird). Both of these apps hang when trying to open, leaving two processes behind that need to be manually killed. Again, cp'ing the data out of the nfs-mounted dir onto a local dir resolves the issue, so I am 100% confident there is nothing missing or corrupted in the firefox &/or thunderbird data...
relevant entry in /etc/fstab:
server:/nfs/dan/Documents /home/dan/Documents nfs defaults 0 0
relevant entry in server's /etc/exports:
/nfs/dan/Documents client(rw)

I've recently installed F15 on my old thinkpad X41 to give it a go after sticking to ubuntu for quite a bunch of years now.
Somehow there seems to be a problem with the installation tho: the screen freezes up (as does the keyboard) after a while using it - not many programs open, a couple of workspaces enabled, no memory or CPU stress whatsoever - and all i'm left with is a moving mouse cursor. Ctrl + alt + F2 doesn't work and the only solution is to restart the laptop again.
Tried the fallback mode and same thing still happens, so maybe its not a graphic card issue.

My computer keep locking up when I try to open a new tab in Google Chrome. It locks up when I do other stuff too but it does not stay locked up. When it gets locked up from Chrome I have to fix it by doing Ctrl + Alt + Backspace. It only happens sometimes though. I can open new tabs sometimes without it locking up. I know it has something to do with my graphics driver (I have an ati). When it locks up I can't do anything and then like 10 seconds later I can move my mouse but that's it, everything else is still frozen. That's when I do Ctrl + Alt + Backspace. Here is what the messages log file says:
Quote:
Jun 22 17:47:31 hostname kernel: [12767.018056] radeon 0000:01:00.0: GPU lockup CP stall for more than 10000msec
Jun 22 17:47:31 hostname kernel: [12767.018058] ------------[ cut here ]------------

I changed the real host name of my computer to hostname.

I'm happily running Fedora 13 as a guest OS in VMWare 3.0.1, except that it has one little issue.Sometimes the mouse would get terribly confused. It generally happens when I hit the mouse scroll wheel or when I move a window around very quickly. After that the left mouse button would stop working...
Anyway I found an easy workaround which I thought I'd share.Just hit 'enter unity' on the VMWare player menu. Then you can immediately exit unity again. This somehow resets the mouse into its normal state...

I added the rpmfusion repos so that I could install the nvidia drivers and downloaded whatever updates appeared. Initially after rebooting, I kept getting "No root device found" which I've managed to solve but now it keeps locking up after "Starting atd". That actually manages to load and then it locks so I'm guessing that it's "S99livesys" that is causing the problem.From googling, this appear to be a problem with certain kernels and can be resolved by either using an older kernel image or turning the process off in the command line. My problem is that this was a fresh install so there's only one kernel image so it's impossible for me to use a different one. For the same reason, I can't get into the command line.
Is there anyway to get around this without re-installing?I don't want to have the same issue if I re-install?Can I download the kernel images and just place them in /boot?

how to lock down individual users from setting a proxy server. Its a server not a WS so it should never go to the internet. I want to lock down the system side and firefox 5 settings. found this link but its a bit confusing. I want to lock the system and mozilla Locking preferences - MozillaZine Knowledge Base I tired this and put the local-setting.js in and now the firefox wont start at all. "failed to read the configuration file. Please contact your system administrator. well read several sites that all say to do the same thing but they are talking windows and mac so may be i am missing something being Linux...So what I did was create a file called
/usr/lib64/firefox-3.0.12/defaults/profile
more mozilla.txt
//
[code]...
Still get error.this link explains what the setting 0-5 are used for Network.proxy.type - MozillaZine Knowledge Base So i thought this might be a permission issue and did a 777 on the local-setting.js file. Still get the error.

im having problems finalizing the installation of fedora 10 on a new ASUS P5E-VM that uses Intel G35 chipset.
1. i think fedora did not recognize the video driver since all the installation was in text mode and i cannot use "init 5" to load a UI
2. i tried to find some drivers (if any1 can recommend a rpm that i can download i will apprichiate it very much) but could not transfer them to the fedora since i could not mount any USB disk on key in the linux i tried using: mount -t vfat /mnt/usb (after mkdir /mnt/usb)
3. i tried to burn the driver but then could not access the dvd...
4. no internet connection yet... but thats because i cannot access my network drives that are on the USB key as well...
