agpgart is really stable for you? Most things like glxgears work fine on my Pismo with it, but a few other things like tuxracer reliably lock up. > However, some of the XScreenSaver GL hacks, when they end, leave the mouse > pointer in a weird state - as an (approx.) 64x64 box, with what looks > like ~24 lines inverting, ~24 lines transparent, then ~8 lines > inverting. Never seen that. Or heard of it, for that matter. :) Sounds like the hardware cursor image gets overwritten, maybe an offscreen memory glitch or related to agpgart? > Other than that, it works quite well, though the frame rate seems a > bit on the low side (~190 fps according to glxgears). That's too low indeed. I get ~350 without agpgart and almost 500 with it. (Or is your CPU slower than 300 MHz?) Are you running a 'complex' window manager like Enlightenment or any 2D clients at the same time? If yes, the context switching overhead might explain this. That will be better with current CVS and 4.2.0. > Also, I'm still seeing the bleedthrough effect that had been mentioned on > this list previously with Rage128 DRI support - is there a fix in CVS > that eliminates this problem?

Sounds like you should try current CVS, eh? :) -- Earthling Michel Dänzer (MrCooper)/ Debian GNU/Linux (powerpc) developer XFree86 and DRI project member / CS student, Free Software enthusiast _______________________________________________ Dri-devel mailing list [EMAIL PROTECTED] https://lists.sourceforge.net/lists/listinfo/dri-devel
