I'm "almost" certain they're unrelated - this is to say, I've not been able to provoke the switch-to-vt-and-back freeze on my system. The file is radeon_state.c; the lockup occurs when waving a 2D window over a very active 3D window, causing the redraw of the 3D window to occur in several smaller clipping rectangles rather than one big one. You need a quick(ish, by todays standards) system (e.g. Athlon 1200) and a heavy 3D app (e.g. the NeverWinter Nights toolset) to make it happen, though I did manage to make glxgears do it once. I'm pretty new at the source myself, so I post (small) patches here rather than apply them directly, so that wiser heads can hopefully stop me before I break anything... -- Tim Smith ([EMAIL PROTECTED]) Daleks are now an endangered species, and it is actually illegal not to let one exterminate you if it wants to. -- Dave's Web of Lies ------------------------------------------------------- This sf.net email is sponsored by:ThinkGeek Welcome to geek heaven. http://thinkgeek.com/sf _______________________________________________ Dri-devel mailing list [EMAIL PROTECTED] https://lists.sourceforge.net/lists/listinfo/dri-devel
