 This is the second release candidate in preparation for the upcoming
 2.13.0 release. This comes exactly one week after 2.12.902 and includes
 only a handful of changes.
 
 One significant change is that the driver now requires libdrm 2.4.22
 (or newer), as several people reported compilation failures of
 xf86-video-intel 2.12.901 with libdrm 2.4.21.

Compiled fine here on libdrm2.4.22 :)

 
 Other changes include a fix to compile for the 1.6 series X server, a
 fix to retry framebuffer allocation after an initial failure, and a
 fix to disable dri2 after fallbacks are forced on.

Got some errors though:

Xorg.log reports:

(EE) intel(0): Failed to submit batch buffer, expect rendering corruption or 
even a frozen display: Bad file descriptor.

Dmesg:

[drm:i915_gem_do_execbuffer] *ERROR* Object c49c0600 appears more than once in 
object list

It seems to run fine except for the KDE4 effects which do not work  correctly 
(as it also happened on the 901)

Anywhere else I can get more information that would be usefull for you 
developers?

I've commented out those lines as suggested by Clemens Eisser and it builded 
fine then.

I've been on this drivers for some hours now and it seems stable although KDE 
effects don't work properly (maybe it's due to the removing of the mentioned 
lines...)

I need no longer the page-flipping patch archlinux applies to the drivers for 
stability and my desktop seems more responsive as well as the flash videos. 
Improving at every release as usual

Thanks guys!

 Ok here are some updated ones.

Already tried the patches. Now they both apply correctly on kernel 2.6.35-rc3.

However, this is what I find on the Xorg.0.log:

[   463.790] (EE) intel(0): Detected a hung GPU, disabling acceleration.

If I try to run glxgears the X window system crashes. This happens with both 
2.11.0 and with 2.11.901RC

However, I'm trying right now the kernel 2.6.35-rc3 with the 2.11.901 RC and, 
for now, it seems stable (I still get corruption if I try to rotate the screen 
as well as in some KDE menus).

Sometimes I amaze myself :S It clearly says *after* this.

I'll do that tonight

Re: [Intel-gfx] Working out if my driver is borked ?

 Hiya,
 
 I have been trying to work out if my laptop is under-performing
 graphically all day, I have managed to push an extra 200fps on glxgears,
 but I am trying to work out if this is normal for my card (it seems low
 to be honest), but I want to find out before I start breaking things.
 
 My card is a Intel GM45, and I (think) I have the latest driver
 installed (and the latest stable mesa3d driver)

Latest? for your distro? from git? From the official packages? ;)

 
 glxgears seems low
 
 3677 frames in 5.0 seconds = 735.353 FPS
 3304 frames in 5.0 seconds = 660.754 FPS
 3155 frames in 5.0 seconds = 630.804 FPS
 

It is well known glxgears is *not* a suitable benchmark. Don't base  your 
perception on those results.

However, I will quote www.phoroniix.com:

The Intel Linux graphics driver is simply not in a state to perform well with 
3D acceleration atop its Mesa driver.

The 3D performance is *terrible* on my 945GM even though it has improved a lot 
in the last year.

It seems there have been many improvements in the 2.12 version of the driver 
as well as the DRI2 implementation in the Xorg server...


By the way: keep up the good work developers!

[Intel-gfx] Can't get 1920x1080 on TTY anymore and fullscreen freezes

2010-05-24 Thread Marc Deop i Argemí
I've recently upgraded my Archlinux system to the kernel 2.6.34, libdrm 
2.4.20, intel 2.11.0 xorg-server 1.8.1 RC and now I'm no longer able to get 
1920x1080 on the tty and I'm stuck with 1280x800 (which is the LCDs default 
resolution but not my external monitor's). Furthermore, the X window system 
defaults to 1280x800 as well (didn't behave like that before) and have to 
change the ressolution everytime I login.

Any suggestions to solve this issue?

I'd like to report too that my system freezes every time I run a flash video at 
fullscreen or a regular video while having compiz enabled. Should I fill in a 
bug report?

Best regards and thanks in advance for your help!
