Probably DRM, and I think the error is only a symptom caused by the actual hang emptying the buffer freelist. Unfortunately, it's very hard to track down the actual cause of such problems. > With a Rage128 descendant, of course, PCI GART can be used, but > it's a good bit slower than 2X AGP would be... The radeon driver also has PCI GART code, which is probably still disabled in source on i386 due to problems. Anyway, I really don't think AGP or not matters too much for these problems. On PPC maybe, because our agpgart implementation is still experimental, but hardly on i386. -- Earthling Michel D�nzer (MrCooper)/ Debian GNU/Linux (powerpc) developer XFree86 and DRI project member / CS student, Free Software enthusiast _______________________________________________ Xpert mailing list [EMAIL PROTECTED] http://XFree86.Org/mailman/listinfo/xpert
