------- Additional Comments From [EMAIL PROTECTED]  2003-23-10 11:50 -------
I have done some some tests:

kernel 2.6.0-test8 w/patch #703
XFree 4.3.99.14 w/patch #723 (I do not use DRM driver from X source but the
patched from kernel)
FujitsuSiemens Amilo A, Athlon XP +1400

- I have to clean /etc/modprobe.conf (all lines commented)
  It was formely generated by modutils. If I didn't do it, XFree hangs on during
startup.
  In 2.6.0-test7 my modprobe.conf causing only KDE freezing during "initializing
periphetals",
  Gnome went well, in 2.6.0-test8 freezes all XFree.
  I have full driver management in  my hands, using only modprobe.

- SOUND NOT WORKING if DRI is enabled
  modprobe snd-ali5451 (for alsa) cause system freezing immediately
  modprobe trident (for OSS) cause system freezing immediately
  If DRI is disabled the statements above work well.

- network card not working if DRI is enabled (it's well known problem for Amilo A)
  modprobe 8139too (nothing suspicious happen, module is loaded)
  ifconfig eth0 up   ...error message appears from kernel: disabling IRQ #11,
  but system goes on well, except network, but nothing freezing.

- DRI works well, gives me around 400FPS in glxgears.
  Tuxracer have slight distortions in first screen, like big one-pixel-thin
screen-wide cross, or like
  screen to be assembled from 4 smaller pictures. But then continues well.
  Quake3Arena Demo - nearly no problem, only some textures slightly flickering
when I directly
  facing them, but it's not a big problem.

- setting or unsetting in /etc/profile
  export RADEON_NO_IRQS=1
  export RADEON_NO_USLEEPS=1
  ..seems to have no efect

Kerner 2.6.0-test4-patch540 DRI works still best for Amilo:
no problems with sound,
any screen distortions.
only the network is the problem (I have to switch between two XF86Configs)
It's independent on  XFree version 4.3.99.14 or 4.3.99.11 or 4.3.99.12.

I much prefer 2.6 kernel, for desktop/laptop users is really better, it's
significant.

I will give a try to DRM driver from X source in the next tests.
