Are you running ksh93 per chance?  I've seen this after I started an
OpenGL program such as xscreensaver-demo from ksh93 (however that
could have influenced the terminal settings or whatever is beyond my
current understanding.)

radeon lockups w/ 5.1-R

2003-07-10 Thread Matthias Buelow
Hi folks,

anyone else still seeing occasional lockups when using a Radeon
graphics card?  I've had these frequently with a R7500 on 5.0p7
and now installed 5.1 hoping that the issue had been fixed in
the meantime.  It went well for two days but it just fscked up
again so the problem is still there.  It only happens when I
exit the X session.  Display becomes garbled and the machine
locked up completely (didn't always do so in the past with 5.0,
I sometimes could log in over the network and reboot the machine.)
I think the problem was already known for 5.0, or does it warrant
a new PR?

Yes, I had them from 5.0 onwards until -p7.  Not only with radeon but
also (although not so often) with mga.  They don't seem to happen 
anymore with the Matrox card in -p7 but I can't right now check if it's 
still problematic with a Radeon (I have swapped cards in hope to 
workaround that problem.)  But since I also had problems with the mga 
before -p7 and they don't seem to exist anymore now perhaps the problem 
has gone away?  (The problem manifested itself in the X server taking 
100% cpu in kernel mode, and trying to kill it, or trying to reboot made

xscreensaver hacks, after a while, although I couldn't ascertain this 
because I usually am not there when xscreensaver is running... ;)

If the system isn't really too critical, I'd go for it.  I'm running
5.0 in workstation use and had some problems with agp and X11 up until
5.0-RELEASE-p7, on which I haven't had a crash or freeze yet and all
seems to be stable.  I'm using scsi and ide on that machine.  Apart
from the agp/graphics/X11 problem and one (I think) related kernel
panic I've experienced with < -p7, I've not seen any problems.  IMHO
it's stable enough for use in a relaxed production environment.  The
more people who engage in testing it, the more problems (also cutting
edges in the userland) get ironed out, and the faster that will
happen.

Re: linux-emu ioctl not implemented w/ quake3

Ok, I hadn't seen so far the instructions for 5.0 on Eric
Anholts website... in fact, I needed to include a few
lines into the kernel config and rebuild; in my case:

device mgadrm
options COMPAT_LINUX
options DRM_LINUX

did the trick.  Now quake seems to work stable, although
it seems to be much slower than on Windoze, the cinematics
don't work and I get a good amount of garbage (flickering
etc.) between frames but it's playable, and above all,
doesn't crash the machine.

linux-emu ioctl not implemented w/ quake3

2003-04-02 Thread Matthias Buelow
Hi folks,

I'm running 5.0-RELEASE-p7 on i386 and investigated how quake3 (linux)
would be doing at the moment.  I had some relative success on 4.7
(quake3 ran ok, in 3d acceleration, but only for about 30 seconds, at
which point the whole machine froze solid) so I hoped it might just
work out.  This time at least it didn't freeze but I don't even get so
far.  When I run quake3.x86, I get the following:

quake3 spits:

Using XFree86-VidModeExtension Version 2.2
XFree86-VidModeExtension Activated at 640x480
libGL error: failed to open DRM: Operation not permitted
...
(at which point it offers me to use Mesa software rendering
as a fallback which, of course, works...)

and the kernel says:

Apr  3 04:59:23 reiher kernel: linux: 'ioctl' fd=13, cmd=0x6401 ('d',1) not implemented

Does anybody know what ioctl that would be?  I didn't get that on 4.7,
is linux-emu divergent between -stable and -current?

The relevant ktrace excerpt follows:
