There are rumors about some Savage4's that lock up when reading the status register. :-/ A workaround would be to use shadow status (the card writes status to system/AGP memory and the driver picks it up from there). This is high on my todo list, but it'll require some fundamental work on the DRM driver first. In the mean time, maybe trying different AGP speeds would help. Or is this a PCI card? Also, the Savage4 I'm using for testing here has severe heat problems. Mounting a small fan on top of the passive heat sink helped. > IBM SR9 16MB Savage 4 eXtreme (savage) > glxgears - 569.2 > q2 640x480 - 49.4 > q2 800x600 - 38.8 > q2 1024x768 - 27.1 > q3 640x480 - 45.1 > q3 800x600 - 34.4 > q3 1024x768 - 23.3 > rtcw 640x480 - segfault > rtcw 800x600 - segfault > rtcw 1024x768 - segfault > ut 640x480 - 36.8 > ut 800x600 - 28.78 > ut 1024x768 - 20.6 > Notes: The segfault in RTCW seemed to be related to the checkpoint demo. > wolfsp seemed to run fine. Good to know that at least one Savage4 works more or less reliably. ;-) Regards, Felix | Felix Kühling <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> http://fxk.de.vu | | PGP Fingerprint: 6A3C 9566 5B30 DDED 73C3 B152 151C 5CC1 D888 E595 | ------------------------------------------------------- SF.Net email is sponsored by Shop4tech.com-Lowest price on Blank Media 100pk Sonic DVD-R 4x for only $29 -100pk Sonic DVD+R for only $33 Save 50% off Retail on Ink & Toner - Free Shipping and Free Gift. http://www.shop4tech.com/z/Inkjet_Cartridges/9_108_r285 -- _______________________________________________ Dri-devel mailing list [EMAIL PROTECTED] https://lists.sourceforge.net/lists/listinfo/dri-devel
