I have a new machine by now, so unfortunately, I can not help you here.

Bug#385366: Bug#386989: PageFlip causes graphic freezes after a while
Hi, because of the probably related bug 385366 I’ve disabled PageFlip, because it is my work machine and I’d rather avoid crashes. I could reconfirm that bug with the current version, though. After my last message there (16.3.), I disabled PageFlip and had neither a spurious crash nor a crash with osd. I wonder why I’m the only one observing this. Am I the only one with a T41p that had PageFlip Enabled or is it something else?

I doubt you're the only one, it's probably just that the specific circumstances (page flipping, OSD on top of GL windows) are rare. -- Earthling Michel Dänzer | http://tungstengraphics.com Libre software enthusiast | Debian, X and DRI developer
