By "working just fine" with 1.4.99 I mean that X doesn't crash under pretty much any circumstances or at least not any of the ones which consistently crash with EXA on 1.5.0... Just tried with the RadeonHD driver from GIT (the one with pretty much the same degree of support than the Radeon driver) and this problem also happens. It takes a bit more (more panning "passes"), but still happens. So I do believe that this might have more to do with the XServer than the drivers themselves. How would I use that "git bisect"? Maybe it could be worth to bring this to the attention of the XServer maintainers of Fedora? I will try your suggestions for redneraccel, see what happens and report back. -- Configure bugmail: http://bugs.freedesktop.org/userprefs.cgi?tab=email ------- You are receiving this mail because: ------- You are the assignee for the bug. _______________________________________________ xorg-driver-ati mailing list [email protected] http://lists.x.org/mailman/listinfo/xorg-driver-ati
