Open-Source 2D, 3D For ATI Radeon HD 5000 Series GPUs

Anyone still getting random crashes with 2d accel?
I've got 2.6.36-rc6, along with git versions mesa and xf86-video-ati.
Are there some patches for Evergreen that didn't make it into 2.6.36-rc6 that help with stability?

I am, yeah. The stabillity is *much* better now (rc5, latest git everything else) than it was a few RCs ago. But I do still get some X crashes. Now at least, it's hours before it crashes rather than minutes. Oddly, they nearly aleays occur for me while dragging a scrollbar (or, 'holding on' to a scrollbar). Anyone else get that?

Agreed, though I also get crashes every once in a while when resizing windows.

There's an open bug about that.

Not sure if you are seeing the same thing, might want to file a separate bug otherwise.

Thanks monraaf. That sounds exactly like what I'm seeing.
