Hi,
I am using the above (subject) card for a while now. I've got everything
working very well, the support for this card is great.
However, when I have accel turned on (using DRI), I get weird artifacts
during large screen updates, like scrolling pages or moving (opaque) windows.
Even though I took this for granted, I think this is not the way to go.
The artifacts are white dots and stripes on the right of the screen. This
happens only in modes above 640x480, but I think this is because in lower
modes, the "snow" is outside of the screen.
Animated things on the screen, such as games or animated gifs, also make
the snow appear, even when other windows cover the animations up (this using
BlackBox windowmanager, haven't been able to try out others yet).
When using 'Option "UseCCEFor2D" "false"' in the X config, this does not
appear (accel is turned off).
I've seen more posts on the DRI maillist a few months ago, but never really
anyone knew what is was and, most important, how to make it disappear. Weird
thing is, there seem to be more versions of the Xpert2000 around, with one
having the snow effects, while the others do not.
/proc/pci:
Bus 1, device 0, function 0:
VGA compatible controller: ATI Technologies Inc Rage 128 RF (rev 0).
IRQ 11.
Master Capable. Latency=64. Min Gnt=8.
Prefetchable 32 bit memory at 0xe4000000 [0xe7ffffff].
I/O at 0xc000 [0xc0ff].
Non-prefetchable 32 bit memory at 0xed000000 [0xed003fff].
Well, thanks in advance and I hope someone would be able to help me.
Regards,
