Anyone else having broken ATI graphics since a week ago?

Postby morgano » Jul 11th, '16, 17:37

I have two systems with ATI graphics running Cauldron
My workstation is working great with cauldron :)
One of them, an half old Thinkpad T60 was working great until I updated it july 6, after having had it without updates for maybe a week.
( That is my wife's production machine...!! ) :oops:
With both proprietary as well as xorg ati drivers, the display change to just vertical lines at login screen, and also at desktop.
As a workaround it now use xorg vesa which works but is of course slow and have other issues as well.

Bug 18883 - ATI graphics broke after an update first days in july
Mandriva since 2006, Mageia 2011 at home & work. Thinkpad T40, T43, T400, T510, Dell M4400, M6300, Acer Aspire 7. Workstation using LVM, LUKS, VirtualBox, BOINC
