Re: Slow 2D with radeon KMS

vsync was broken when intel merged the new vsync code. So you should use mesa from time before the merge (about a week ago) Unfortunately I cannot get vsync working anyhow with Kwin compositing (KDE 4.3). Any combination of xserver (1.6 / 1.7 / 1.7.99) / Mesa (7.7 or git) gives the same

Re: Slow 2D with radeon KMS

However I see 2 performance issues : - glxgears tops at 1450fps (compared to ~2500fps without KMS) - GL vsync is broken, ie visual tearing especially at playing large videos (XV or OGL) with Kwin compositing enabled GL vsync got broken with the DRI2 swap buffers merge:

Hi, I just tried KMS with radeon driver, and 2D seems notably slow. Widgets takes time to draw, scrolling in Dolphin or Firefox lags, as if some 2D acceleration was not working alright. Used latest 2.6.33rc5 kernel + drm modules from :

What I did up to now : - upgrade to kernel 2.6.32 (from suse repository) - upgrade to latest xorg-server (from suse rep too, still 7.4) - compile xf86-video-ati from git. And it works ! Thanks a lot ! On Mon, Jan 11, 2010 at 8:22 PM, Damien Mir mailings.x...@mirabel-sil.com wrote: Hi, I am

Re: Sluggish 2D with radeon Xpress 200M

With an old opensuse 10.0 with xorg 6.8 (32bit mode if relevant) on the same laptop, everything is stunning fast. With OS 11.1 xorg 7.4, although it is not really horrible or unusable, there's definitely something wrong, it feels a little sluggish in comparaison. Btw. glxgears gives about

AccelDFS is enabled by default for PCI-E chips. In my case, no matter which option I tweak, I cannot get the very basic 2D performance I expected and got before, the slugishness increases in relation with the quantity of active windows on the desktops. (no flash or desktop effects, just static
