I've been trying to get some movement on this bug, but so far I have not seen anything.

I've been chating on the #radeon mailing list and this seems to be a common issue across several distros. So there appears to be something wrong in the KMS code for r600.

i'm curious as to how many bugzilla reports exist for this very topic. seriously, search bugzilla for the combination of "radeon" and "kms" -- there's no way all those reports represent unique issues:

kinda like this one:

You may be surprised. KMS issues (graphics issues in general...) are very hardware dependent. Two bugs with apparently identical symptoms - especially when the symptom is as broad as 'feature X doesn't work' or 'the system doesn't boot' - can have entirely different causes on different hardware.
Given that, we tend to be quite conservative when marking bugs as dupes in triaging X bugs, and leave it to the developers where possible.
