I was wondering if that was the case. I found a series of bugs here that seemed similar, but this one seemed to be affecting roughly a set of graphics cards mine fell under in roughly the same way. I'd be happy to open a new bug for this issue if you think it's worth it at this point. > > > As you'll see, I've tried a number of the options suggested here and > > elsewhere. > > I've had varying degrees of success.

Well, background rendering is by far not the only problem. I'll upload a screenshot where that's "clear", though I don't know that it's necessarily useful given what else you said. > > With KMS disabled, there's no acceleration of any kind (I read somewhere > > that > > this is by design), [...] > > There should be at least 2D acceleration, but the r300g 3D driver indeed > requires KMS.

Hm, could you elaborate on how AGP is broken and how that affects this problem? If it's something that a bug could be reported for (e.g., a kernel driver), would it be worth my time to submit one? -- Configure bugmail: https://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
