[arch] xf86-video-ati-6.7.191-1 from testing: strange behaviour on radeon 7000/VE

[Stefano Esposito]

Hi all,

after upgrade to the latest open source ati driver from testing, my default resolution was some strange X x 768, where X was < 1024, but i don't know the exact value. I was able to restore my prefered resolution (1024x768) from xfce display settings panel. My xorg.conf hasn't been changed, here's my device and screen sections

[...]
Section "Device"
  Identifier "ati"
  Driver     "radeon"
  Option "DRI" "true"
  Option "BusType" "AGP"
  Option "AGPMode" "4"
EndSection
[...]
Section "Screen"
    Identifier  "Screen 1"
    Device      "ati"
    Monitor     "monitor"
    DefaultDepth 16

    Subsection "Display"
        Depth       8
        Modes       "1024x768" "800x600"
        ViewPort    0 0
    EndSubsection
    Subsection "Display"
        Depth       16
        Modes       "1024x768" "800x600"
        ViewPort    0 0
    EndSubsection
    Subsection "Display"
        Depth       24
        Modes       "1024x768" "800x600"
        ViewPort    0 0
    EndSubsection
EndSection

After a ctrl-alt-bs the issue wasn't there anymore, but my fonts have changed to some bold font (i don't which one is) whitout any apparent reason. I've looked into the Xorg.0.log but i haven't found any related WW or EE, so... i really don't know what's going up.

Ciao,
Stefano Esposito
