more on tearing with xpress 200m
I have also noticed this tearing. 2D Responsiveness can be incredibly bad. I found out sometime ago that it could be compositing that was messing everything up. But I thought it was from the Desktop Environment point of view, that is, for example, gnome's 2 metacity trying to put some nice transitions when starting my computer (which sometimes worked, but almost always didn't). I tried using the low resource option in gconf, but that didn't help. So I switched to xfce 4.8 (Debian testing). All desktop effects are off by default. And the problem remained! So finally after reading more stuff, I decided to disable composite and aiglx in the xserver. I put a file: /etc/X11/xorg.conf.d/composite.conf with the following: Section Extensions Option Composite Disable EndSection Section ServerFlags Option AIGLX off EndSection After booting up again, performance was instantly better. I would say this is a better solution than giving up performance using Option EXAVSync True. Desktop is very responsive and videos playing without tearing (both vlc and mplayer). Sadly the xorg log still shows aiglx is enabled, even though the same log also acknowledges my configuration file and disables it early on. So far, performance has been good and no problems, but have I truly disabled compositing? or is it still lurking around refusing to be shut off?

[ 2183.658014] [drm] radeon: 1 quad pipes, 1 z pipes initialized. The kernel radeon driver isn't consistently reporting the number of quad pipes. Does the slowness correspond to the number being reported as 1? I've just checked this.

With kernel 2.6.38-2 from debian main, quad seems to be 1, but after resuming it goes to 3.

I would stick with current testing versions X, mesa and kernel (which don't seem to have this issue), but my touchpad gets out of sync and lags and it's just not usable...

Yes, it's slow when the number is reported as 1 (which happens both waking up from suspend, and when using vblank_mod=0). The latter can't really be true like that, as the number of pipe quads is only probed and printed at initialization and resume time. Let me clarify. The slowness is present after waking up from suspend OR if I boot up using vblank_mod=0. So, this is rather strange.

So in the latter case, is it slow initially but becomes fast after resume? :) It's always slow on resume...in any case. In fact, right now, I've been probing the quad pipe message and it seems to vary. The last two boots with 2.6.38-2 kernel lead to a reported number of 3. After the resume the number remains 3: $ dmesg | grep quad [9.554083] [drm] radeon: 3 quad pipes, 1 z pipes initialized. [ 173.492317] [drm] radeon: 3 quad pipes, 1 z pipes initialized.

Bug#588549: Bug # 588549 more info
what happens with the X stack from sid, and with kernel 2.6.37-1-$arch? Well I just tested the game. First I just tried it using 2.6.37 from sid, but otherwise keeping X and mesa from testing. This resulted in the same problems, but greatly reduced. I then proceeded to install the X stack from sid and I also pulled Mesa 7.10. The garbage around the screen in the game disappeared, but unfortunately the game became massively slow. Too slow to be played... This was a bit disappointing since I had been hearing very good things about gallium 3d, especially r300g which supports my video card. I guess I'll have to wait for more performance tweaks. I guess you can close the bug report.

Re: Debian bugs: 588601, 588602: xpress 200m 5955 = resume from suspend fails with KMS enabled
Fantastic!, it works! I forced it by just writing (like your quirk): /* quirk for rs4xx HP laptops to make them resume * - they hang on resume inside the dynclk 1 table. */ return; Just before the /* DYN CLK 1 */ line in the radeon_combios.c file. So, can you modify your patch to encompass my chipset? actually I know of several xpress 200 different chipset that have this issue, see for example: https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/linux/+bug/305301?comments=all or https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/xserver-xorg-video-ati/+bug/577340 I will contact this bug reporters and will try to get them to try by modifying the kernel source. I recently opened up a bug report upstream, to which you replied with the same solution. Perhaps that provides the ideal framework for a slight change in your patch? Thanks a lot!

You will find this piece of code:
if (rdev-family == CHIP_RS400 || rdev-family == CHIP_RS480) {
/* FIXME: RS400 RS480 seems to have issue with GART size

I don't have 4Gb of system memory (I have 2Gb DDR) so I deleted the whole thing
and compiled my kernel fine. Testing it didn't lead me to any problems. My gtt
size went from 32Mb to 512Mb. Is this ok? my card is supposed to have 128 Mb of
VRAM.
Also if the issue is only when you are above 4Gb of system memory, couldn't
there be some sort of if statement that could probe the memory and if it was
bigger than 4G then it would force 32mb on gtt memory.?
should I play it safe? I guess I don't really understand what gtt memory is

Package: xserver-xorg-video-radeon Version: 1:6.13.0-2 Severity: important Tags: squeeze When I try suspending using KMS my computer (an HP Pavilion dv5035nr laptop) does not resume. Furthermore I've tried logging into it remotely to obtain a backtrace from X with no success (following this procedure: http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?t=1228332). I'm letting NetworkManager handle my network interfaces, however, I also tried using dhcp directly in the /etc/network/interfaces file. Unfortunately as soon as the resuming process starts (and fails) I am unable to establish a connection the laptop (wired or wireless). On top of this, upon hard reboot I have no network connectivity (if managed by network manager): http://mail.gnome.org/archives/networkmanager-list/2010-March/msg00123.html The workaround for the last bit has been to erase the stale file and reboot. When using UMS the resume process happens perfectly. I don't know how else to get a backtrace. The laptop screen is completely blank so I can't switch to another session. I've marked this bug as important because suspend/hibernate are almost essential features in a laptop. -- Package-specific info: /var/lib/x11/X.roster does not exist. /var/lib/x11/X.md5sum does not exist.

xpress 200m (rc410) and Mobility 7500 (M7) KMS+DRI2 problems with two monitors
Hi, Before filing a bug report I decided to post this here first, since I'm not sure whose fault is it. I'm running Debian Squeeze. Output to another monitor or projector was working fine with version 6.12.4 of the radeon driver in user modesetting. Got version 6.12.191 from experimental and set up KMS+DRI2 to see if I could suspend/hibernate, but this failed.

Bug#573118: radeon: Suspend/hibernate don't wake up xpress 200m (rc410)
Package: xserver-xorg-video-radeon Version: 1:6.12.191-1 Severity: important I've tried suspending with both the version in squeeze (with user modesetting) and experimental (with KMS). The result is always the same, goes into suspend mode but when waking up, display is blank (the LCD screen doesn't even turn on). I also tried with 2.6.33 kernel in experimental, but the result was the same.

Unfortunately I have to report it does not correct my problems. I have KMS in this laptop which works well, but DRI is disabled due to some kind of conflict with the kernel version which really makes no sense! look for yourself: (EE) RADEON(0): [dri] RADEONDRIGetVersion failed because of a version mismatch.

is rc410 considered part of R400?
Hello, In the Radeon features page as well as the main page hosted by xorg, only the status of Rx00 chipsets is displayed. Is the RC410 chipset part of which of these families? is it simply R400? I apologize for the basic question, but I wanted to clarify this. Thank you in advance Andres ___ xorg-driver-ati mailing list xorg-driver-ati@lists.x.org http://lists.x.org/mailman/listinfo/xorg-driver-ati
Re: is rc410 considered part of R400?
Ok, but this still doesn't answer my question. When I go to these websites: http://www.x.org/wiki/RadeonFeature http://www.x.org/wiki/radeon In the first one, I can only see info for RX00, RS690 and Evergreen... and the 2nd website has only info about RX00 (that status part). Do these things apply to my chipset as well?...under what family are they included?...or are they not included at all...if so, then what is the status of 2D and 3D acceleration for the RC410 chipset (ATI Technologies Inc Radeon XPRESS 200M 5955)?...that is, is it using EXA and it is stable..what is missing?

Bug#552282: xserver-xorg-video-ati: suspend and hibernate doesn't work
Package: xserver-xorg-video-ati Version: 1:6.9.0-1+lenny4 Severity: important The Radeon driver in lenny if very limited and does not provide direct rendering (2D or 3D) for my card: ATI Radeon Xpress 200M 5955 based on ATI's chip RC410, moreover it fails to wake up from suspend/hibernate. I have resorted to using the fglrx-driver in Lenny which works very well. I've had no problems. However, ATI/AMD stopped supporting this card in their driver versions greater than 9-3. I've also used newer versions of the open-source radeon driver successfully with this card, unfortunately, one problem remains: it doesn't wake up from suspend or hibernate!. This problem remains in the newest version of the the package xserver-xorg-video-ati/radeon, as can be evidenced from this Ubuntu bug report: https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/linux/+bug/305301 Please update to the newest version of xserver-xorg-video-ati -- Package-specific info: Contents of /var/lib/x11/X.roster: xserver-xorg /var/lib/x11/X.md5sum does not exist.
