And what about the problem with in-Firefox videos that don't use flash? I.e. comment #22? That also is miserably slow in KMS. Also, if this bug gets NOTOURBUGged it would mean that flash video will be terribly slow for all radeon KMS users, right? http://xkcd.com/619/ comes to mind ;) -- Configure bugmail: http://bugzilla.kernel.org/userprefs.cgi?tab=email ------- You are receiving this mail because: ------- You are watching the assignee of the bug. ------------------------------------------------------------------------------ Download Intel® Parallel Studio Eval Try the new software tools for yourself.
