Mobility Radeon HD 5730 / 6570M - Problem after update


Problem occurred after the 2018-07-27 Tumbleweed update. Running on an iMac 27, with an i7, 16GB..updated wifi and SSD. Things were running great, until the aforementioned update. After that, the system booted just fine, but I'd get an absolutely black screen after X was initialized. Was able to SSH into the system, saw no errors in the X logs, but saw some telltales in the dmesg output:

[   36.699274] [drm:radeon_ib_ring_tests [radeon]] *ERROR* radeon: failed testing IB on GFX ring (-110).
...which led me to looking up other things, where I ran across this:
Code:
[   20.824205] [drm:radeon_cs_parser_relocs [radeon]] *ERROR* gem object lookup failed 0x13
The "gem object lookup" led me to look at the xf86-video-ati package. A "zypper rm xf86-video-ati" command and a reboot later, and things were back to normal. Had to go into the KDE control panel and re-enable compositing, but aside from that, no errors.

My initial diagnosis was that the libdrm_radeon1 package was to blame. Tried installing the 'experimental' package from software.opensuse.org, which had no effect. Not sure where the problem lies, here (reported possible but to SuSE), but from what I read, it had to do with the updates to the xf86-video-ati package, and the fact that there were updates to the main Xorg pieces that now perform the
same/similar functions to the mentioned xf86-video-ati package, and the two were stepping on each others toes.

Removing the xf86-video-ati package got things working again.

Yeah, *MOST* modern distro's actually work better (when using free video drivers) without the xf86-video-whatever/xserver-xorg-video-whatever/whatever driver package installed. Learned this the same way as you with Intel video. Have a laptop that won't initialize video with modern kernels on Debian if I have the xserver-xorg-video-intel installed, works great without it.
