[Bug 416073] Re: [i965] [karmic][GM965] low intel graphics performance - again
Very strange, now I have reinstalled updates from xorg-edgers again and indeed found slight improvement of the performance! Maybe thanks to the newer version of mesa. Synaptic says mesa is 7.8.0 now (was 1.6.0), Intel driver is 2.10.0 (was 2.9.0), xserver-xorg-core is 1.6.5 (was 1.6.4). However, the performance improvement is small - Tux racer now says 18-22 FPS rather than 15-20. But at least Euphoria screensaver does not flicker now, as it was constantly doing since Jaunty. Hope this trend will remain in future versions. Forgot to mention that tests in the above post and here were done with compositing (kwin) disabled. -- [i965] [karmic][GM965] low intel graphics performance - again https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/416073 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 416073] Re: [i965] [karmic][GM965] low intel graphics performance - again
Some Extreme Tux Racer tests (intel GMA X3100 (GL360)): linux version on linux (Karmic): 15-20 FPS windows version on linux (Karmic) via wine: 15-20 FPS windows version on windows (Vista) on the same computer: 40-50 FPS So it looks that linux intel video driver is at least 2-2.5 times more slow than it could be. Installing new Xorg (only drivers or the whole) from ppa caused very strange things: glxgears reported FPS several times larger than for the default configuration, Tux reported the same 15-20 FPS, but actual apparent performance was very bad in both cases, no more than 10 FPS. Is there any way to install 2.4 driver on Karmic? I found it in the Jaunty x-retro ppa, but there is no 2.4 driver for Karmic. -- [i965] [karmic][GM965] low intel graphics performance - again https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/416073 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 416073] Re: [i965] [karmic][GM965] low intel graphics performance - again
I had similar problems but then I manually set it right with the following instructions: HOWTO: Wrong/Low Resolution and flicker The Xorg server - the code that provides a graphic display - is very good about determining what an attached monitor can do. There are limitations. This HOWTO explains one process for obtaining a rock-solid graphics screen within the constraints of your hardware's abilities. There are many other ways to do this. Overview of the problem: When Xorg starts, it tries to figure out what kind of monitor you have via DDC/CI and EDID protocols. If your monitor and cabling are first-rate, you will never need to care about any of this. (Yay!) If not, Xorg will pick a safe VESA resolution and use that: probably not at all what you expected, and not likely to be satisfactory. (Grr.) Lucky for us all, Xorg is highly configurable and it's very easy to get the exact resolution(s) that you want, deserve, and yes, paid-for with your invested time. Warning: If you are terrified by a Linux command line, at least TRY to follow this procedure. It won't hurt you and it will help. Still with me? Then let's proceed: Step #1: What kind of monitor do you have? What are its capabilities? What is its maximum resolution? Virtually every monitor vendor will publish the specifications for their products on the web. You can find them if you just look but first, you'll need the Vendor Name and Model of that monitor. It will be printed on a plate or tag, glued, screwed, or riveted to the back, top, bottom, or side of your monitor. Go look for it now. Write that information down and keep it handy. Step #2: Fetch your specs. Bring up a browser window and search for that model eg, 'dell 3007wfphc'. Look for any site with details and specifications; the vendor's site is best, but most review sites will provide specifications too. Ideally, you will find the Horizontal Sync range, expressed in kilohertz (KHz or khz), and the Vertical Refresh range, expressed in hertz (Hz). If you found that, write it down like: Code: HorizSync 49.31 - 98.71 VertRefresh 60 and proceed to Step #4. If not, then look for the Maximum Resolution. This will be listed as something like 2560 x 1600 at 60Hz. Write that down. Step #3: Calculate the frequencies from the specified resolution. Open a terminal window (Applications - Accessories - Terminal) and enter Code: cvt 2560 1600 60 Hit Enter. This will output the following Code: # 2560x1600 59.99 Hz (CVT 4.10MA) hsync: 99.46 kHz; pclk: 348.50 MHz Modeline 2560x1600_60.00 348.50 2560 2760 3032 3504 1600 1603 1609 1658 -hsync +vsync Aha! The vertical refresh will be exactly 59.99Hz and the horizontal sync will be 99.46KHz. Write it down as: Code: HorizSync 99.46 VertRefresh 59.99 Step #4: Create a basic xorg.conf Write the following commands down on paper because we're going to turn off the GUI and run a few commands from the console. Flip to the text console via Ctrl+Alt+F1 and log in. Execute these commands: Code: sudo /etc/init.d/gdm stop sudo X -configure sudo /etc/init.d/gdm start ; exit (ignore any notices about the new way of starting/stopping services - those new ways work, and so does this way, but this way works on all releases) You're back at the GUI login screen, so log in and bring up the rest of these directions. Step #5: Edit the basic configuration. Edit the new configuration by opening a terminal window and running the following command: Code: sudo gedit xorg.conf.new Scroll down to the entry Code: Section Monitor Identifier Monitor0 VendorName Monitor Vendor ModelNameMonitor Model EndSection Add lines after the Identifier label to include the values you found (or calculated). The entry for that Dell monitor will look like: Code: Section Monitor Identifier Monitor0 HorizSync49.31 - 98.71 VertRefresh 60.0 VendorName Monitor Vendor ModelNameMonitor Model EndSection Note: If you appreciate details, fill in the VendorName and ModelName values (within quotes) like Code: Section Monitor Identifier Monitor0 HorizSync49.31 - 98.71 VertRefresh 60.0 VendorName Dell ModelName3007WFP-HC EndSection Step #6: Save the new configuration. Save that file. Then click File - Save As (in gedit) and save the file as /etc/X11/xorg.conf then exit gedit. Now, you have a new Xorg configuration installed where Xorg can see it, and you have a backup in your home folder. Step #7: Restart X and test. In the terminal window, enter Code: sudo /etc/init.d/gdm restart You'll be logged off and the login screen should appear a few seconds later at full resolution. Congratulations, you have just done what your graphics card tried to do, but failed. -- YIKES: If the screen goes black and stays that way, then you have either not provided the correct information for your monitor or your graphics card cannot run that monitor at these

After a little testing, it does seem that the culprit (in my case) is xserver-xorg-video-intel-2.8. I reverted to 2.4 and things were definitely improved, but there were obvious side-effects to reverting. Oddly enough, running glxgears reports a better frame rate under 2.8, but is definitely choppy, whereas 2.4 gave a lower frame rate, but was not choppy.

[Bug 416073] Re: [i965] [karmic][GM965] low intel graphics performance - again
I have noticed the same degrading as you, Hhewbert , but I guess it is related to changings in kernel's scheduler. Besides less DE responsivity I catched some other slowdown. Say, MPD player clicks when some JVM application is eating CPU actively (such building NetBeans from sources). -- [i965] [karmic][GM965] low intel graphics performance - again https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/416073 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

I upgraded from Jaunty to Karmic. I cant set my screen resolution higher than 800x600 and the PC does not wake up from display sleep.

After inserting a second monitor, use it and then cut it down quite a performance and visual effects have also been disabled.

Not sure this is the right bug. There's a few bugs with similar problems. I upgraded to Karmic yesterday on a Dell Latitude D410 with a 915GM. Having significant problems with X.org. Absorbing 100% of CPU a lot of the time. Seems to be with Mozilla apps - Firefox and Thunderbird. Seems to be redrawing in these apps. Worse with heavy Web 2.0/AJAX apps on Firefox. Compiz is disabled and cannot be enabled. The weird thing is I managed to enable Compiz last night and everything was fine. Will attempt to refine the problem. -- [i965] [karmic][GM965] low intel graphics performance - again https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/416073 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

Cian, look at '/dev/dri' - have you something there? Probably it is another problem with workaround to reinstall libdrm2 and libdrm-intel1. There is a dedicated bug wrt /dev/dri problem (try to search). -- [i965] [karmic][GM965] low intel graphics performance - again https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/416073 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
