Bug#671172: [xserver-xorg-video-nouveau] Flightgear buffer flush fails, freezing system

2012-05-02 Thread David Baron
Package: xserver-xorg-video-nouveau
Version: 1:0.0.16+git20120322+ab7291d-1
Severity: normal

--- Please enter the report below this line. ---
Latest and greatest improved extreme penguin racer--large scale artifacts gone 
(nice work!). So dared to try flightgear.

I know that Nouveau is not yet up to this most demanding hw-accelerated app,

However, before the upgrade, the app would eventually appear, had similar 
artifacts as penguin racer and refresh was intermitant at best. Not playable 
but I was not expecting it to be.

After upgrade, there is a buffer flush failure which freezes the system which 
must then be reset. No way out to kill fgfs or restart X.

No trace of message in logs. Can get text by repeating the failure if needed 
(but resets and be dangerous to filesystems).

 That's more likely a problem of the 3D driver (in the libgl1-mesa-dri
 package) that was updated as well.
Reassign if appropriate

 If you have a second computer you can try to log in via ssh or capture
 kernel logs with netconsole.

 The 3D driver for this card is known to have many problems and is
 unsupported upstream.  In Mesa git master it has been replaced by a
 different driver that will hopefully be better.  For now it is
 recommended to use Nvidia's 173xx legacy driver if you want to play 3D
 games.

The card does work perfectly with the regular nvidia package on Sid, not the 
173 legacy. I manually reconfigured for Nouveau mostly to check out a possible 
kde4.7-nvidia problem which was not the case. Nouveau is also necessary for 
the real-time preemptive kernel images on Sid because of non gnu variable 
names being used.

What I would really like to do is choose the nvidia or nouveau at boot time. 
Would involve copying xorg.conf versions, a modprob.d blacklist, and setting 
alternatives for glx and libGL.


Bug#542382: ([drm-modules-source] ATI Mach64 Resets X on Ctrl-Alt-F1)

2009-08-20 Thread David Baron
Google if full of stuff like this for nvidia and intel drivers off and on over 
the years, and the suggestion that compiz may be the problem.

One guess: I get the log in screen several times but eventually, things will 
hang up. The three LEDs on the keyboard start flashing in unison and then I 
have to reboot. Smacks of recursion.

Bug#542382: [drm-modules-source] ATI Mach64 Resets X on Ctrl-Alt-F1

2009-08-19 Thread David Baron
Package: drm-modules-source
Version: 2.4.11+git+20090630+de1ed01-1
Severity: important

--- Please enter the report below this line. ---
ATI Mach64 Works OK. However, any attempt to get to another session, i.e. 
control-alt-F1 to a console, will restart X. This occurs from a KDE4.3 
session, KDM login screen, etc. It may sometimes function OK once the desktop 
is completely painted and quiet.

Such a switch can hang X but that occurred with other DRMs as well, not just 
from the mach64 I compiled from this package.

Bug#542004: [xserver-xorg-video-mach64] Cannot load mach64.ko

2009-08-17 Thread David Baron
Package: xserver-xorg-video-mach64
Version: 6.8.2-1
Severity: important

--- Please enter the report below this line. ---
DRI will not work with this old card. While there are kernel sources with 
mach64 in their name, no mach64.ko is built. This driver wants to load that.

I used to make this module separately but that old trunk no longer compiles 
and is no longer supported.

This bug might belong with the 2.6.30 kernel sources.
