Hi!


Any ideas?
Alex probably knows more about this, but it sounds like problems with
switching the memory clocks on 3D load.
Try to disable power management completely with radeon.dpm=0 on the kernel
command line or nailing the hardware at a specific power level using
sysfs.
I tried that, but it still flickers.
It's probably pll stability.  There seem to be a number of regressions
since the pll code was rewritten to support matching the hdmi clocks
more closely.  Does this patch help?

Help.. maybe... it is tricky to tell. It definitely does _not_ fix the
issue completely.
You could also try the old pll algorithm:
I reverted the patch above, and switched to the old algorithm.

The flicker is still there. (But maybe its less horrible, like with
RADEON_PLL_PREFER_MINM_OVER_MAXP).

The flickering would vanish completely if that's the reason for the issue you are seeing.

Try setting ref_div_min and ref_div_max to 2 in radeon_compute_pll_avivo().

But I'm not 100% convinced that this is actually a PLL problem, try to compile the firmware it complains about into the kernel as well.

Christian.
