Simply the screen go black and the system never go back.

I've the same if I don preload amd64_agp, agmgart and radeon modules in this order with the free drivers.

And BTW, glxinfo reports direnct rendering=No. glgars repors 450fps while I get 920fps with fglrx drivers. with fglrx, the radeon driver shouldnt be loaded.

When the screen is black, I've a beep after a while and a machine check in the logs.

tangerine-64 kernel: agpgart: Putting AGP V3 device at 0000:01:00.0 into 8x mode
tangerine-64 kernel: CPU 0: Machine Check Exception: 0000000000000004
tangerine-64 kernel: Bank 4: b200000000070f0f
tangerine-64 kernel: Kernel panic - not syncing: CPU context corrupt

I manage in this casre to use the magic keys to do an Emergy sync [Altgr-Syst request-S], umount R/O [Altgr-Syst request-U] ans emergency rebbot [Altgr-Syst request-B]

I've the same behaviour with both 64 bit and 32 bit system.

I've remarked the same machine check with a Radeon 9200SE on a friend machine.

My card is an Asus A9250T/D and I sue only the analog output.

I've never the machine check with the fglrx drivers.

I can't figure out what is the problem.

I don't use the fglrx only Xfree86 and Xorg. Does your
monitor work without the fglrx?

I have the same system only my Radeon 9250 has the primary
for the CRT and the secondary for the LCD.

This looks like the config file doesn't have the secondary:
(WW) fglrx: No matching Device section for instance (BusID PCI:1:0:1) found

I would like to know how the fglrx does on glxgears. My
Xorg is up to 2130 FPS with my Radeon 9250. Try this:
