<p></p> <p><b>New page</b></p><div>Information about the problem of system lockups with the ATI driver.<br /> <br /> ==Problem description==<br /> <br /> A few minutes after starting X windows the system locks up hard.<br /> <br /> ==Affected Models==<br /> <br /> *ThinkPad {{T42}}<br /> *other ThinkPads with a FireGL chipset and possibly other ATI chipsets<br /> <br /> ==Affected Operating Systems==<br /> <br /> *Xorg 6.9.x <br /> <br /> ==Status==<br /> <br /> The problem has been fixed in 7.0. However, some Linux distributions still release 6.9.x as their current version.<br /> <br /> ==Solutions==<br /> <br /> The easiest solution is to switch to the &quot;vesa&quot; driver in xorg.conf.<br /> <br /> You can also downgrade to 6.9.x or upgrade to 7.0. Debian users can get 6.9.x packages from [http://snapshot.debian.net].<br /> <br /> <br /> ==Related Links==<br /> <br /> *[http://lists.debian.org/debian-x/2006/03/msg00967.html a mailing list discussion]<br /> *[http://bugs.debian.org/cgi-bin/bugreport.cgi?bug=363559 Debian bug report]</div>
