[Ubuntu-x-swat] [Bug 347569] Re: [RS482] glxgears low fps

2009-06-08 Thread Jeremy Wilkins
After testing the patch on amd64, I have not noticed any instabilities, and all GL programs tested so far seem to work normally and much faster. The whole system is tremendously more responsive and my GLX gears get double the scores on my Radeon 200M that it was getting with the unpatched mesa.

I also have a 200M chipset on a laptop and have been experiencing the same troubles. I followed the link that sergks left there and installed those components, I also installed the newer radeon drivers, but it messed up my ability to run any GL programs that would run before, GLX gears runs

This patch is the wrong one. It is an old patch. The correct patch has similar results to the mesa libraries mentioned above. -- [RS482] glxgears low fps https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/347569 You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu-X, which is subscribed to

Updated patch. This one moves one of the TNL lines. Apparently it improves performance, but as the author mentioned it causes lockups for some things. I will test is thoroughly. ** Attachment added: r300 performance fix http://launchpadlibrarian.net/27634168/r300_context_tnlcache_fix.patch
