I upgraded my laptop to the latest Debian radeon driver and the VGA output stopped working, so I got a copy of the git repository from freedesktop.org and used git bisect to discover the first commit at which is stopped working was "PLL adjustments" (92ee21df344a989778e37369c7beb3904a00ead6). I'll attach a log file for the driver from the previous commit and this one for starting up the server with the VGA output attached. The difference between them is: --- radeon-0d5e0347af4322713075193154b8a348de4a0b52.log 2008-09-23 19:06:03.000000000 -0400 +++ radeon-92ee21df344a989778e37369c7beb3904a00ead6.log 2008-09-23 19:01:10.000000000 -0400 @@ -12,7 +12,7 @@ Markers: (--) probed, (**) from config file, (==) default setting, (++) from command line, (!!) notice, (II) informational, (WW) warning, (EE) error, (NI) not implemented, (??) unknown. -(==) Log file: "/var/log/Xorg.0.log", Time: Tue Sep 23 19:04:13 2008 +(==) Log file: "/var/log/Xorg.0.log", Time: Tue Sep 23 19:00:41 2008 (==) Using config file: "/etc/X11/xorg.conf" (==) ServerLayout "Default Layout" (**) |-->Screen "Default Screen" (0) @@ -711,11 +711,11 @@ (II) RADEON(0): MC_AGP_LOCATION : 0x003f0000 freq: 146250000 best_freq: 146250000 -best_feedback_div: 65 -best_ref_div: 2 -best_post_div: 6 +best_feedback_div: 1170 +best_ref_div: 27 +best_post_div: 8 (II) RADEON(0): crtc(1) Clock: mode 146250, PLL 146250 -(II) RADEON(0): crtc(1) PLL : refdiv 2, fbdiv 0x41(65), pdiv 6 +(II) RADEON(0): crtc(1) PLL : refdiv 27, fbdiv 0x492(1170), pdiv 8 Set CRTC PLL success Set CRTC Timing success Not using RMX Thanks! -Tyson

Can you try again with ati git master?
That did it. The above diffed lines are once again: (II) RADEON(0): MC_AGP_LOCATION : 0x003f0000 freq: 146250000 best_freq: 146250000 best_feedback_div: 65 best_ref_div: 2 best_post_div: 6 (II) RADEON(0): crtc(1) Clock: mode 146250, PLL 146250 I'll mark the bug report as fixed. : ) Thanks! -Tyson
