[Bug 446578] Re: [RS690M] newest mesa update makes kwin compositing constantly crash to kdm

 

I can report that forcing the install of 7.6.0-1ubuntu2~bug446578~1 on
my notebook PC with ATI Radeon Xpress 200M graphics chip has solved the
problem thus far. I can (re)enable compositing and desktop effects on
Kubuntu Karmic Beta with KDE 4.3.2 and not experience the crash back to
kdm login screen.

I am running the latest kernel 2.6.31-13. So I tried both booting
without Radeon KMS enabled and with "radeon.modeset=1". Enabling
"radeon.modeset=1" slows down my system, but on the other hand, leaving
Radeon KMS off by current default creates the situation whereby I can
see certain visual artifacts on the screen.
