[Bug 350766] Re: Screen freezes using desktop effects - except mouse
*** This bug is a duplicate of bug 371279 *** https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/371279 Hi I am new to the forum but I have been chasing this issue for a long time. I don't think this defect is a duplicate of bug #371279 because bug #371279 got fix for me but not this one. I am experiencing Desktop freezes and mouse is still active most of the time. Even using the version from git as described in the Building recent version of radeon + mesa + drm of http://www.x.org/wiki/radeon and I am still experiencing that issue.

In my Bug # 350933 I also described freezes with the same graphics card, this time not in connection with kwin (didn't test), but with 3d apps. Witch driver do you use? Considering my bug, I assume it's driver specific and not kwin specific, but I'm really not a pro in this topic. -- Screen freezes using desktop effects - except mouse https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/350766 You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
[Bug 350766] Re: Screen freezes using desktop effects - except mouse
Hi The freeze issue is with Jaunty standard driver (dont know which it selects cause xorg.conf doesnt show a driver name) and with the radeon driver. Currently I use the following settings: Section Device Identifier Configured Video Device Driver radeon Option RenderAccel on Option AccelMethod EXA Option AccelDFS Option DRI Option OpenGLOverlay on Option ColorTiling 1 Option DynamicClocks true EndSection But using default settings doesnt help either. Though I am not a linux pro either I am stuck without desktop effects for now.sad ..sad :-( -- Screen freezes using desktop effects - except mouse https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/350766 You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
[Bug 350766] Re: Screen freezes using desktop effects - except mouse
Could you post your /val/log/Xorg.0.log (as an attachment, not inline)? I assume you use radeonhd. I vaguely remember having issues with the radeonhd driver. Try to use ati, perhaps this helps?? To use ati, enter sudo gedit /etc/X11/xorg.conf and change the line containing radeon to ati. Take care that no fglrx package is installed at this time (it won't work then, at least it didn't 1-2 weeks ago). Reboot afterwards. If it does not help, I suggest to revert this change again so that you have a standard system again. If X should not start any more, just undo any changes you did in the console and reboot again. -- Screen freezes using desktop effects - except mouse https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/350766 You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs

Hi The problem occurs with the default settings of following drivers: radeon radeonhd I am currntly using the following options: Optio RenderAccel on Option AccelMethod EXA Option AccelDFS Option DRI Option OpenGLOverlay on Option EnablePageFlip 1 Option ColorTiling 1 Option ColorTiling 1 Option EXAVSync true Option DynamicClocks on It improves performance but doesnt solve the freeze issue. I have now switched to ati driver and will see if that helps. -- Screen freezes using desktop effects - except mouse https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/350766 You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs

Ok here we go: Driver radeonhd is totally useless because: 1) crashes even faster than the other drivers, as soons as glxgears is running for 10-30secs 2) painfully slow (800fps) interesting: driver crached plasma including crash report (never happened with other drivers) Driver radeon: 1) fast (1800fps) 2) glxgears + vlc + google earth runs totally fine when Desktopeffects are disabled 3) crashes with Kwin desktopeffects, screen freezes in this case with mouse pointer still moving Driver ati: 1) fast (1800fps) 2) glxgears + vlc + google earth runs totally fine when Desktopeffects are disabled 3) 3) crashes with Kwin desktopeffects: Screen freezes and backlicht goes off!? weird I did test ati and radeon driver with defaults (no options in xorg.conf) and with options on only one option at a time. Options do improve performance a bit and reduce tearing effects a little but do not seem to affect the freeze issue. Again: ati and radeon driver run fine when Kwin desktopeffects are turned off. -- Screen freezes using desktop effects - except mouse https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/350766 You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs

Hi Google Earth, and GLXgears run smooth simultaneous for hours even when VLC is playing.
