Appears to be caused by the Hi-Z code. No known solution at this point, aside from disabling Hi-Z. Here's a script that I use to launch google-earth with Hi-Z disabled (and enough core fonts to make the broken Qt version included work): #!/bin/sh export INTEL_HIZ=0 MISCFONTS=/usr/share/fonts/X11/misc if xset q | grep -q $MISCFONTS; then echo 'fonts already present' else xset fp+ /usr/share/fonts/X11/misc fi /usr/bin/google-earth $@ -- keith.pack...@intel.com ___ Intel-gfx mailing list Intel-gfx@lists.freedesktop.org http://lists.freedesktop.org/mailman/listinfo/intel-gfx

The bugs show a GPU hang. X itself should remain stable through such a catastrophe and revert to software rendering (if the GPU becomes wedged). If you have an instance where X itself fails, please do let me know. -Chris -- Chris Wilson, Intel Open Source Technology Centre ___ Intel-gfx mailing list Intel-gfx@lists.freedesktop.org http://lists.freedesktop.org/mailman/listinfo/intel-gfx
