[Bug 564181] Re: [RV730] GPU soft reset infinite loop scrolling in firefox with compiz

 

A few other ideas to try out:

There have been some updates to -ati recently, and since you indicate
this to be a regression that occurred in the last day, this would be the
first thing I would suggest looking at.  None of the ubuntu changes look
like they could cause this kind of a bug, but who knows.  It would be
helpful if you could downgrade and test the following versions:

  * -ati: 1:6.13.0-1ubuntu1 - this will rule out two (innocuous?) changes in the last couple days
  * -ati: 1:6.12.192-2ubuntu2 or earlier - this will rule out upstream changes we brought in about a week ago
  * -mesa: 7.7.1-1ubuntu1 - this will rule out a change in the last couple days which I think is innocuous but who knows
  * xorg-server:  2:1.7.6-2ubuntu3 - this will rule out several patches recently added to xserver which were taken from upstream that look safe but may have changed something unexpectedly.

I haven't looked at what has changed in the kernel recently, but you
probably have the -19 or -20 kernel.  If you find you cannot reproduce
it after booting into an earlier kernel that could point to a regression
in the kernel.

Beyond that, look in your /var/log/dpkg.log file to see what got updated
and go through downgrading them until you find a good suspect.
