Unfortunately I couldn't test with drm-next-3.17-rebased-on-fixes, because it
has a bug somewhere in ata (null pointer dereference or some such thing) that
prevents me from booting.
Also I never reproduced the bug, it actually happened after I recompiled stuff
(especially xf86-video-ati with the v3-patch for enabling hawaii accel
available here:
<a href="http://lists.x.org/archives/xorg-driver-ati/2014-August/026534.html">http://lists.x.org/archives/xorg-driver-ati/2014-August/026534.html</a> ). I then
couldn't get the setup where the crash happened back easily (acceleration
stopped working). But I suspect it's a "random" bug that isn't really related
to closing gwenview.
I'm now on the brand-new current "drm-next-3.17" branch, which is based on
3.16.0 final and boots fine - and should also have all the fixes and patches
(?).
I'll monitor the situation for a while. Probably this bug can be disregarded
unless I get more similar crashes with all the fixes applied and more
information how to cause it.
Sorry 'bout the noise, I though those dmesg-messages with exact atombios
commands getting stuck would reveal an possibly easy-to-fix issue, but
according to agd5f on irc they are only symptoms of the gpu not being able to
resume correctly.</pre>
