[Dri-devel] Patch: Shared IRQ's for i810, plus less kernel oops
This patch adds in shared IRQ's. I added it in a manner that goes along with the template code so it should only alter the i810 driver. Plus, the i810 drm isn't working in XFree 4.1.0. I get regular oopsen when shutting down X leaving me with a blank console (if I'm lucky). With shared interrupts I usually get a wedged machine. This patch removes the NULL deref's that were ruining my day, but I doubt this is the real answer. I probably just hid the problem better. Seems a lot of things get called with dev->dev_private == NULL which gets dereferenced a lot. Can someone who knows the template code better look into this and perhaps come up with a real fix? Thanks, -Matt drm.diff

[Dri-devel] X4.1.0 radeon driver instead of 2.4.x driver
David Miller suggested I use the X-supplied driver. How is this change made? I tried compiling X4.1.0 from source, which failed with syntax errors. Any points appreciated - is this something obvious?

[Dri-devel] Re: CVS Update: xc (branch: trunk) 4.1.0
Hello, UT show the same texture corruption running XFree86 DRI 4.1.0 (after David's update) with the tdfx driver (V5 5500, 1280x1024x24) as I reported some days ago for the trunk-branch. Every other thing I've tested looks OK. Even Xv (good work Alan). But I have some Linux 2.4.5-ac14 shm problems, now. Read my post here about it or at LKM.

[Dri-devel] Interrupt sharing gone?
The i810 driver used to have interrupt sharing before moving to the template code, it appears to have lost this functionality since the change. This is a real problem since a lot of the i810's and i815's have integrated lans that are using the same interrupt as the graphics controller. As I recall Keith or Jeff added that for us after the issue was discovered during development. Is there a reason the templated code shouldn't allow interrupt sharing? I think that this hasn't been merged into the kernel tree yet, when that happens there will probably be a lot of broken systems. I just noticed it myself since I haven't been tracking the drm in the DRI tree. -Matt ___ Dri-devel mailing list [EMAIL PROTECTED] http://lists.sourceforge.net/lists/listinfo/dri-devel
[Dri-devel] I can't believe it. TDFX drivers nearly as fast as under Win2000
Hello, I just read this great review of XFree 4.1.0 on "the duke of url" Website: http://www.thedukeofurl.org/reviews/misc/xfree86410/index.shtml And what i saw was more than impressive! The Voodoo 3 card is now nearly as fast as under Windows 2000 in Quake 3. I never imagined that this could get ever be possible. Thanks a lot to all that made this possible.

It looks like the patchlevel was increased, but the minor (or major?) version should have been if they're not compatible. BTW, here are the versions: Driver XFree86 4.1.0 Linux 2.4.4 kernelXFree86 4.1.0 checks for --- gamma 1.0.0 1.0.0 1.0+.x i810 1.1.0 1.1.0 1.1+.x mga3.0.2 2.0.1 3.0+.x r128 2.1.6 2.1.2 2.1+.x radeon 1.1.1 1.0.0 1.1+.x tdfx 1.0.0 1.0.0 1.0+.x Note: "N+" means values >= N. The checks imply that drm modules with newer minor version numbers will work with older XFree86 driver modules (if the major version number hasn't changed), and that patchlevel changes indicate changes that don't affect the user<->kernel interface.

Cool, now everything seems great! There's still a few things that aren't 100%, there's some walls in Unreal whose edges appear jagged when they should be striaight, and the scrolling text in XMMS is flickery instead of smooth. I've tried Option ``shadowfb'' but it doesnt help. Any suggestions?

Hello all, I hope this is the right forum for this. I'm running X4.1.0 (from RPM) and kernel 2.4.5 (from kernel.org), my Linux 2.4.5 system has agpgart and radeon compiled as modules. When I start X, I get the message in the subject line. Questions: What does the DRI version depend on? I assumed a new X and a new kernel would update this. Is there a way to get a DRI version 1.1.x ? Currently, I am unable to play any 3d games, this card is angering me.
