[Bug 1581799] Re: radeon driver hangs : nothing else that static effect on display

 

Hi Christopher,
thank you for the detailed information and support, I dind't think it could be a bios issue.
Like you said I updated my MB BIOS firmware to 1069 (last available for my MB) , the situation changed a bit : instead of static effect, the screen remains blank.

I really don't know if you can consider this the same problem or another
one, anyway I'll provide you the information you asked and , for now,
not mark this bug as confirmed since it could be also another issue,
different from initial one, I'll wait for your approval to mark this as
confirmed.

Here it is the commands output :
$ sudo dmidecode -s bios-version && sudo dmidecode -s bios-release-date
1609
01/07/2014

At your disposal if you need further information.
