Problems with ati radeon powersaving and vboxdrv

Hi
I use an old Laptop with an ATI Radeon Mobility x300:
$ lspci | grep -i vga
01:00.0 VGA compatible controller: ATI Technologies Inc M22 [Mobility Radeon X300]
, Kernel 2.6.36.1 and the latest xorg/radeon packages.
To use the powersaving features, I have
echo low > /sys/class/drm/card0/device/power_profile
in /etc/rc.local. This works as expected, but when I load the vbox-modules on startup, I get the following errors:
vboxdrv: Trying to deactivate the NMI watchdog permanently...
vboxdrv: Warning: 2.6.31+ kernel detected. Most likely the hardware performance
vboxdrv: counter framework which can generate NMIs is active. You have to prevent
vboxdrv: the usage of hardware performance counters by
vboxdrv: echo 2 > /proc/sys/kernel/perf_counter_paranoid
vboxdrv: Found 1 processor cores.
vboxdrv: TSC mode is 'synchronous', kernel timer mode is 'normal'.
vboxdrv: Successfully loaded version 3.2.10 (interface 0x00140001).
AND when after that, when /etc/rc.local is executed:
Uhhuh. NMI received for unknown reason a0 on CPU 0. You have some hardware problem, likely on the PCI bus. Dazed and confused, but trying to continue
If I disable these modules on startup, everything is OK, so it seems that the vbox-driver has something to do with it.
Do I have to worry about this and is there a fix for this problem?
Regards,
drm

Problems with ATI Radeon HD 2600, electrical interference or flickering pix

Problems with ATI Radeon HD 2600, electrical interference or flickering pixels
I have a Macro 8 core purchased just 4 months ago with the ATI Radeon HD 2600. Just started getting what looks like electrical interference or flickering pixels all over the screen. It gets worse and worse to the point where i see and cant work then clears up for an hour and then comes back.
If I change the resolution from 1680x1050 to 1600x1200 everything looks fine and the problem goes away.
Monitor works fine on two other computers, driver is up to date.
Would like to upgrade at some point just disappointed that I’m already having problems.
Any suggestions would be very helpful, in the mean time I’ll searching the forums.
Thanks,

When you called Applecare or went to a Genius bar were they of no help?

Nimestä päätellen oletan että oot varmaan suomesta
Eli suomeksi sanottuna osnavi sanoo että ongelma voi johtua liian heikkotehoisesta virtalähteestä, sitä ei voi säätää tehokkaammaksi mistään biosista vaan jos se on alitehoinen pitää hommata uusi tehokkaampi virtalähde. Eli nuo arvot löytyy todennäköisesti sen virtalähteen kupeessa olevasta tarrasta. Se 12 volttia pitäisi olla vähintään 12 amppeeria että se riittäisi kunnolla radeonin näytönohjaimelle. Yleensä 300 wattinen poweri on riittävä, eli siinä tarrassa pitäisi olla maininta ainakin siitä kokonaistehosta, esim total output 300w tai jotain vastaavaa. Vika voi aivan hyvin olla jossain muuallakin, mutta yleensä täällä aina ensimmäiseksi syylliseksi arvellaan virtalähdettä, itselläni kyllä toisessa koneessa radeon 9200se näytönohjain toimii vaikka virtalähde on vain 200 wattinen. Niin ja muuten... eikö olisi helpompaa kysyä neuvoa ensin joltain suomenkieliseltä sivustolta

Problems with ati radeon 9700

hi there,
since i recently upgraded my board to this helluva rocket... and reinstalled window i was unable to get my ati running stable with the board. it works perfectly with my other computers (p3 1ghz asus board, duron 900 with abit board, p4 2,4 with intel board)
and it has been working for 1 year in that intel board p4 machine.
but with the upgrade to the 875p neo i constantly get vpu recovery with standard catalyst drivers, and texture errors in games with modded omega drivers,
ive been reading about disabling agp 8x and stuff. but the bios doesnt have the option... and no other agp options.... (pretty crappy bios i think anyway...)
did anyone experience similar problems?
cheers
my config is
p4 2,53
875p neo
ati radeon 9700 tx
dual channel 1gb ddr 333

thanks for all the replys... gotta check that all out...
i have not intentionally overclocked my system... gotta take a look at that too...
as far as it goes for problems with the PSU, i got a zalman ZM400B-APS 400 Watt PSU some silent mofu (my machine never was more silent this should be enuff for a 9700 (though i have 3 120gb and one 160gb dvd burner and 9 fans installed (including cpu fan) ) maybe ill turn off some of em... (who needs less than 30degree celsius anyway in a rig...)
regarding reinstall of XP, yes i formatted HD and reinstalled XP then.....
the fresh install is right now waiting for me to return home after work.. lets see how it will work... with the tips you all gave me....
btw i read in another posting that adding your rigs specs is the way to go in here...
by searching the forums for problems with radeon cards cards it delivered all those topics where people have a radeon or 9700 in their specs...
maybe search should have a tick box to exclude or include specs in searches... would make things more convenient for searching and not bothering people with already extensivley discussed stuff...
cheers

Problems WIth ATI TV TUNER AND CREATIVE X-FI PLati

I have serious problems with my tv tuner since i installed my new soundblaster card!!

I had the same problem with Xtrememusic + ATI 800XT.
When you uninstall and reinstall the ATI software make sure you unplug your remote wonder first and install it last.
Leave ATI a message....they were surprisingly great fixing at the problem. They recommended a different version of MMC and it's now working better then before I installed the soundcard.

K8MM-ILSR PROBLEM with ATI Radeon 9550 of 256MB AGP port 8X...

Hello, I have a motherboard MSI-K8MM-ILSR, when use the onboard video card works correctly, but the problem begins when I install a ATI Radeon 9550 of 256MB, is AGP port 8X and has its dissipator, in other machines it works well and your temperature is ok. My monitor is Samsung Sync Master 793s at 75 Hz. The Problem is the following: the machine crash and the video is distorted and it is congealed, this happens after playing a little, the video card drivers are updated (Catalyst 5,6), I'm use Windows XP Service Pack 1, Thanks... and excuse me my English...

Some other options you can try:
- uninstall the previous vid-drivers and use driver cleaner software to uninstall everything
- disable onboard video in the BIOS;
- set fastwrite to disabled/no (if it's there)
- set AGP Aperture Size to 128 (if it doesn't do anything, go to 64);
- set AGP port to 4x.
- Start hoping .... good luck!
(BTW, the last two options may cause your system to operate slightly slower, but it's hardly worth mentioning ... )

Crash with ATI Radeon X1900 XT and second HD display (DVI) ?

hi ! i have a realy tough one for you guys : since 3-4 days i've been getting this realy strange (and scary!) kernal panic screen / crashes / freeze with my macpro dual 2.66 with ati radeon X1900 xt.
the crashes keep coming while doing extensive work (video converting, renders) or just letting the macpro running doing nothing much all night long...
now this is what i found for now : if i disconect my 2nd display (samsung syncmaster 2493hm HD in DVI 1080p) it seem to be stable. when i reconnect it sometime it can run again with this 2nd display for a while but when i leave a render all night long the next morning it will be frozen, nothing on screen (all black).
after rebooting it get this crash report from the system :

Are you really still running 10.6.3? you will need 10.6.5+ so do that and make a clone.
ATI 5770 from Apple Store - like 1000s of others have done and in the comments section on the store page.

Upgrade MacPro1,1 with ATI Radeon X1900 XT 512 MB and Open GL 1.7.7. to recommended system requirements for heli simulator: OpenGL Version 2.1 compatible 3D-graphics card from NVIDIA or ATI with 512MB.

I want to install a helicopter simulator into my MacPro1,1 with ATI Radeon X1900 XT 512 MB and Open GL 1.7.7. Recommended system requirements for the heli simulator are: OpenGL Version 2.1 compatible 3D-graphics card from NVIDIA or ATI with 512MB (at least as fast as NVIDIA 8600, 9400 or ATI Radeon HD 2400). Is there such a graphics card available that will work in my Mac Pro?

Problems with ATI drivers and gnome3?

I've tried to install gnome3 off of the gnome-unstable repo (sudo pacman -S gnome-unstable/gnome gnome-unstable/gdm I'm assuming that's the proper command). However, when GDM starts, my screen just flashes a cursor, goes blank, turns off, and repeats. Is there a problem with ATI drivers or is the package just not working at all right now?

I'm also having troubles with Catalyst and gnome3 (I'm ussually in i3 btw) just playing with it tho. Seems to detect my graphics as 'VESA: JUNIPER" which probably means it's using some sort of fallback, eitherway it's not very functional and messes with my X server a bit
EDIT: I can get into gnome, but there's a lot of flickering doing anything, should proabaly check for bugs on their tracker
EDIT2: https://bbs.archlinux.org/viewtopic.php … 89#p913189 <--- looks like that might be gaining some traction, something to watch
EDIT3: This bug and This Bug might be relevent, not too recent tho
And another one
so yeah..... ATI

GPU enhancement issues with ATI Radeon X1900 XT

Upon startup, PS CS4 turns off GPU enhancements and displays the following error message:
"Photoshop has encountered a problem with the display driver, and has temporarily disabled GPU enhancements. Check the video card manufacturer's website for the latest software."
Problem is, according to all the research I've done, PS should be perfectly compatible with my Radeon X1900 XT card. To further complicate things, ATI does not appear to have driver updates for Radeon X1900 cards for Intel Macs on their website. Even a Google search doesn't seem to bring up any sites with the drivers. It's maddening!
Is anyone having similar problems, or can anyone offer advice? All Adobe and Apple support seem to recommend is updating my drivers, but of course that doesn't seem possible. Thanks!

I'm having a slightly different problem, but it fits in with what others are saying. I upgraded to CS4 the other day, and starting that night my system (a Mac Pro with the Radeon x1900 card) I have had issues with my display - that is, sometimes the display won't work after waking from sleep. The display is a 23" Cinema.
The rest of the system is fine (I have a laptop so I can peek in and control it remotely), and everything is just as I left it. The display itself responds to being turned on and off using the power button on the side (that is, the tiny light on the front turns on and off...). But the screen itself is pitch black, off entirely.
I took out the video card and it was, indeed, black on the intake with fine dust, so I cleaned that as best I could. That did not solve the problem, however.
Pull the plug to my desktop and plug it into my laptop, and it works just fine. Plug it back into the desktop...dead. The only thing that seems to fix it is shutting it down for a time. I don't know how long is required but it's more than a few minutes (so it's not a simple reset) and it's only been a few days and so far I've just gotten frustrated and left it over night - so it certainly could be related to cooling down.
Seems like Adobe is the culprit as the problem has *never* happened before, and has happened every day since the very day I installed CS4. I'd be reluctant to believe it...if I hadn't spent hours just upgrading to CS4 (I won't go into the legendary problems which plague Adobe's installers).
Given that when I bought this system a couple of years ago this was one of the few video cards I could choose, and it's the high-end of the bunch, there must be a lot of folks out there with this set-up plus CS4...
Sounds like the suggestion is to inhibit performance in CS4 so it doesn't fry my video card? I am running Temperature Monitor, but it doesn't show me that particular stat...

Conflicts with ATI Radeon 5770?

Hello,
I am using a Mac Pro 3.1, 2x2.8 quad core Xeon, with OSX 10.6.7. I recently upgraded to a ATI Radeon HD 5770 in slot 1 and put my original ATI Radeon 2660XT in Slot 4 to run an older DVI monitor. It ran ok for a while, but my computer starting crashing more and more often--the black screen scrolls down and it says the computer needs to be restarted. I am using a NEC PA271W on the 5770 and a NEC 2180UX on the 2660. Removing the 2180UX seems to have helped. My computer has crashed only once since then.
The other odd bit is occassionaly the PA 271W doesn't pick up the signal from the 5770, and I have to restart. This has happened since I first installed the card and monitor. Different setting on the monitor don't seem to help.
Anybody have similar problems and have any recommendations about how to fix the problem? I need to run two monitors. Do I have to buy a new DVI-D monitor that can be run through the mini connector on the 5770 to replace the 2180UX?
Thanks,
Drew Harty

If I read that article correctly, they don't mention using any combination of dvi and vga displays. The options they mention are:
2 mini display port displays and 1 dvi display
2 dvi displays
3 dvi displays
3 vga displays
(this article doesn't mention 2 vga displays, or my combination of 1 dvi display and 1 vga display).
Conspicuously, my combination of 1 dvi display, connected to the dvi port, and 1 vga display, connected to a mini display port with an apple mini display port- vga adaptor, occasionally gives me popcorn on my dvi display after waking from sleep, restarting, or starting up.
I've never had a problem with the vga display, but there seems to be a problem with the dvi display and connection through the 5770 card on my mid 2010 4-core.

Wondering if I should return my un-opened iMac with ATI Radeon 4850??

Just got my iMac with the ATI Radeon 4850 and wondering if I should return because of all the problems I have been reading about and just go to an Apple store and get the iMac with a GT 130.
I haven't opened it yet, will Apple charge me a restocking fee? And will Apple pay for return shipping if I mention the reason I am returning is all the issues I have been reading about concerning the 4850?
Any opinions will be appreciated!!

I would not base my decision on what I read in the forum. People who have issues generally post topics and replies to report problems. All the people who are having no problems will not bother to post to say +everything is fine and I'm happy+.
You should contact Apple directly to find out their policy on returns, and whether it makes a difference if you opened the package or not.

Problems with SuSE Linux 10 and JMF

Hi, I know that this is a problem of many other people who are working with JMF and I hope we can now find a solution for this problem.
The problem is, that after installing the Java Media Framework and running the jmfinit Programm, the jmfinit programm shows these errors:
java.lang.Error: Can't open video card 0
java.lang.Error: Can't open video card 1
java.lang.Error: Can't open video card 2
java.lang.Error: Can't open video card 3
java.lang.Error: Can't open video card 4
java.lang.Error: Can't open video card 5
java.lang.Error: Can't open video card 6
java.lang.Error: Can't open video card 7
java.lang.Error: Can't open video card 8
java.lang.Error: Can't open video card 9
The video framerate is also very slow and I think, that this has to do with these errors.
I've installed the latest ATI FGLRX driver for my ATI Radeon X800 and these errors also occured.
I also have only JavaSound Capture in the capture device list, but I'm using ALSA for playing music in Linux.
If anyone gets JMF running under SuSE Linux 10 without these errors and a good video frame rate, please tell me.
If you also have a good instruction f�r installing JMF under SuSE please tell me too.
Thanks, thomas

every linux distro i've installed, gets those errors.rh,suse,debian.
If you do not have a video capture device, you will get those errors.
Are you having framerate issues with webcam or video file??
If it is the webcam, it has nothing to do with your ati video drivers.
The slow frame rate from web cam would be your webcam drivers.
If it is video file frame rate, make sure you have codecs supported in jmf for that type of video.

I hada problem with ATI in my xorg 7 and my solution was to change the xorg.conf driver to ...vesa.
I don't know if your card supports fglrx but I suspect it may not and the ati-drivers are for that function.
Just a thought...

PPC G5 with ATI Radeon 9600 Pro monitors not getting signal

hi there.
I have a PPC G5 with ATI Radeon 9600 Pro graphics card and I cannot get a monitor to work properly. I am trying an old Apple Studio Display (circa 2001) and a Viewsonic VA520.
It seems like the Apple display should work, but all I get is a black screen. I ran it through a DVI to ADC adapter and had it working for a short period of time, but for some unknown reason it went back to the black screen.
The Viewsonic gives a 'NO SIGNAL' screen and not much else.
Both of these monitors have worked on other G5's. I am guessing this is a graphics card issue.
I appreciate any kind or helpful words! Thank you.

I'm having a similar problem with the G5 not recognizing a VGA monitor on either video out. I have no problem using two monitors with the DVI inputs but I need to use a VGA video splitter for a third screen. It worked at the beginning of this week, and now it refuses any VGA out, even without the splitter, just going into directly into the VGA in of one of my working monitors via a DVI-VGA adapter(i've tried different ones). I read another post about trashing "displays" and "windowserver" preference files but i haven't yet tried that..any clues??
