Hello, yesterday I sent a letter here, with too much content, so the message got into a queue for moderator approval.
I'll write a shorter letter, and maybe more people will read it. :) Yesterday I tried xorg 1.5.3 / mesa 7.4 / libdrm 2.4.7 / openchrome 0.2.903 / linux 2.6.28.9, and I got the same result as always: the only program I can run with 3D acceleration is 'glxgears'. For example, running the 'neverball' game, or the 'freepv' panorama viewer, 'googleearth', or some gl programs I've written, all freezes. No ping answered after that, no mouse cursor moving. I have this hardware: 01:00.0 VGA compatible controller: VIA Technologies, Inc. K8M800/K8N800/K8N800A [S3 UniChrome Pro] (rev 01) (prog-if 00 [VGA controller]) I can run glx programs only disabling the 3D acceleration through drirc, with norast=true. But they run terribly slow, of course. This has been the behaviour I've seen since xorg 1.4.2 and the via dri/xorg drivers available back then. If you want more information, I can help. If you can guide me through how to debug my problem, I'm also ready to try. I think I'm quite an experienced developer to deal with that... but I've never dealt with such hard freezes. I've tried some of the debug environment variables available in mesa (LIBGL_DEBUG, MESA_DEBUG, VIA_DEBUG, ...), and I get some lines, but the freeze appears, and the xterms haven't finished painting. I don't know what is it about. Btw, I also tried vblank_mode=0, and that doesn't help.
