What's going on here is that GL seems to work, then it breaks when I hit some condition. Also, once it _stays_ broken, including outside of the browser. The whole display is affected. Even glxgears stops working with acceleration after I hit this radeondrm event horizon. If the problem was a gpu blocklist issue, I don't think I'd see the browser work normally at first, then then watch GL acceleration break when I pull up a specific complex web page. (In my case, the youtube front page) There's nothing in /var/log/Xorg.0.log or Xorg.0.log.old with any kind of error message or resource limitation message. So, this machine is a bit cursed. I have to track down some super weird behavior where the starting network line is displayed, followed by a hang that I can't break out of with ^C or ^\. A hostname.em0 of 'dhcp' causes the bootup to hang. My /etc is fully up-to-date, so it is doing autoconf instead of dhclient. If I set autoconf from a root login, dhcpleased works as expected. I'll stick a !/bin/sh -x into netstart and see where things are failing when I'm back in front of it. Chris
