XFree86-4.0.99 and XFree86-4.1.0 ATI Mobile Rage 128 with 8MB linux 2.4.10 with DRI enabled I just moved my system from a laptop with a celeron700 to a laptop with a PentiumIII 800. All other components are identically ((they even report the same device-version) Nevertheless X behaves very different. Fonts-Antialiasing suddenly works and X crashed frequently on suspend and shutdown. To make sure I didnt change any config by accident I just removed the harddisk and put it back in the old machine and booted and I had no font antialiasing again and no crashes. What code is in X-4.1.0 that relies so heavily on PIII-SSE (?) -Features that it cant do fontantialiasing without it. On the other hand it seems that parts of this code are still buggy. (How) can I disable this PIII-features ? I dont need this antialiasing anyway. (But I need DRI) After I upgraded from my home-brew 4.0.99 to 4.1.0 X is running slightly more stable now, but still crashed frequently. Can there be a problem, that the kernel and the r128-module was compiled on a celeron, while now all is running on the PIII ? I didnt compile the X on my own, but used the glibc22-binaries. thnx, peter ps: there is a second funny thing with my new laptop : the lcd-screen or the vga-card makes very funny noises (like high-pitched radio-signals) under certain circumstances. It doesnt occure on boot, but a bit later, when linux starting to initialize the higher levels. There is no such noise when I run windows on it and the noise disappears after the first suspend. Its definitely not the sound and not the harddisk and it vanished immediately if I suspend the screen, so I'm, quite sure its screen or vga-card.
