[Bug 567696] Re: [Radeon] [Lucid] [mi] EQ overflowing. The server is probably stuck in an infinite loop

 

Just to be clear, this bug has nothing to do with hardware drivers
(nvidia-current, nouveau, fglrx, etc), or even the Ubuntu distribution
itself. This bug has been around for years across different X and kernel
versions in different distributions (e.g. Redhat etc).

The only effective workaround I know is to disable desktop effects in
KWin or Compiz. and regress to using a straight 2D desktop (no
transparency, 3D effects etc).

This is a major loss of functionality, especially to use on high-end
hardware like my Lenovo W510, so I can't understand why it is apparently
getting so little love from upstream Xorg / kernel devs. Sigh.
