Public bug reported:

Binary package hint: xserver-xorg-video-ati

Recent install of Karmic. Have 'options radeon modeset=1' in a file
under the /etc/modprobe.d directory to enable KMS. I have had no
problems with compiz/glxgears/Xv - everything works perfectly (no
crashes/artifacts/problems of any kind) & "graphics/video stay inside
their windows". Prior to Karmic I had a tv-out script to enable my
S-Video output & move the Xv output to it using xrandr/xvattr; however,
in karmic xrandr does not recognize that there is an S-video connection
on my card (Radeon 9550 RV350).

$ xrandr
Screen 0: minimum 320 x 200, current 1440 x 900, maximum 4096 x 4096
VGA-0 disconnected (normal left inverted right x axis y axis)
DVI-0 connected 1440x900+0+0 (normal left inverted right x axis y axis) 408mm x 255mm
   1440x900       59.9*+
   1280x1024      75.0  
   1152x864       75.0  
   1024x768       75.1     70.1     60.0  
   832x624        74.6  
   800x600        75.0     60.3     56.2  
   640x480        75.0     60.0  
   720x400        70.1  
   0x0              0.0

Previously, there would have been an entry similar to "S-video
disconnected (normal left inverted right x axis y axis)" after the DVI-0
listings. This is now gone. Even forcing the connection gives an error:

$ xrandr --output S-video --set load_detection 1
X Error of failed request:  BadRROutput (invalid Output parameter)
  Major opcode of failed request:  149 (RANDR)
  Minor opcode of failed request:  15 (RRGetOutputProperty)
  Serial number of failed request:  24
  Current serial number in output stream:  24

I am using all default configurations (xorg.conf doesn't exist), except
for the KMS switch being set to on.

Attachment: Xorg.0.log - Sorry it's so big, I did a few VT switches and
it likes to re-log all the EDID data each time...
