--- Comment #6 from Duncan <1i5t5.dun...@cox.net> 2010-10-13 14:12:11 --- [Grumble! My prefs are set to mail for all comment additions, but I'm not getting them ATM! Is this a known bugzilla.kernel.org issue ATM? Maybe it's my ISP eating them as spam? Anyway, I know to check manually now.] With KMS and previous xorg-server versions (1.9.0 at least, as mentioned on the previous bug), Option "NoAccel" in the device section didn't seem to do anything, but Disable "dri" in the Modules section did just that. The xorg log confirmed it. With the current setup, I was blaming it on kde 4.5.2 but maybe it's xorg 1.9.0.901, the Modules section Disable "dri" works (disables dri) according to the log, but I get either no X graphics or only a fraction of a second of graphics, before it switches back to the KMS mode text VT I was in previously. And yes, I know dri was disabled previously because not only kde had no OpenGL effects, but glxinfo reported the mesa software rendering OpenGL fallback, not the radeon hardware OpenGL rendering I normally see. Hmm.... but one thing different that I forgot about that I bet has something to do with it... And I better check the variation against this bug now that I remember it, somewhere during my testing I commented the LIBGL_ALWAYS_INDIRECT=1 that I was previously exporting. But I'd have not messed with it if I'd not had the reported bug to begin with, so I doubt it fixes the problem entirely, but it could well explain why I could boot to KDE with DRI disabled before, and I can't, now. So I have some more config variant testing to do. Meanwhile, is the radeon.agpmode=-1 boot parameter like the xorg.conf device section Option "AGPMode" "int" or Option "BusType" "string" that I used to use and that's still documented in the radeon manpage? Do those do any good now with KMS or are they ignored in that case, with only the boot parameters having any effect? Anyway, I'll try to test after some sleep. The results I'd get ATM might be less than useful. =:^( -- Configure bugmail: https://bugzilla.kernel.org/userprefs.cgi?tab=email ------- You are receiving this mail because: ------- You are watching the assignee of the bug. ------------------------------------------------------------------------------ Beautiful is writing same markup.
