           Summary: Kernel 2.6.36 series, xf86-video-ati 6.14.0 kernel

dmesg output from a successful attempt

When booting up Xorg server 1.9.2 with xf86-video-ati-6.14.0 and kernel
2.6.36-gentoo-r5 (distro-patched kernel, but the same problem doesn't appear in
2.6.35-g-r12), as soon as X starts, my monitor goes into DPMS powersave and I
get backtraces in dmesg.

A Gentoo developer suggested booting with kernel command-line parameter
"radeon.agpmode=-1". This didn't help.

I've attached dmesg output from a successful startup with 2.6.35, and will
attach dmesg output from failed startups with and without agpmode=-1
momentarily (looks like only one file can be attached at bug creation time).
