--- Comment #14 from Arno Schuring <aelschur...@hotmail.com> 2010-11-20 05:13:34 PST --- Grumble. So, how will this be fixed? Sprinkle the code with preempt_disable()/enable() pairs? Advise all users (well, me) to disable preemption? Change the code so it no longer acts on intermittent EDID failures? Ask your colleagues to design sane hardware that doesn't rely on software interaction for timing-critical operations ;) ? FWIW, I'm perfectly happy to disable preemption in my kernel, haven't run a distro-provided kernel since 2.6.27. But your explanation sounds like this could bite a lot more users than just me. -- Configure bugmail: https://bugs.freedesktop.org/userprefs.cgi?tab=email ------- You are receiving this mail because: ------- You are the assignee for the bug. _______________________________________________ dri-devel mailing list dri-devel@lists.freedesktop.org http://lists.freedesktop.org/mailman/listinfo/dri-devel
