Re: Problem with DRM in latest 2.6-bk

While it's possible, it seems unlikely.  I did recently upgrade from 2.6.10

*However,* I've been playing with different kernel options.  I went from an 
SMP kernel to a UP kernel, and no more lockups.  I played neverputt for about 
10 minutes where, previously, I'd get lockups almost immediately.  I'm gonna 
try an SMP kernel again, just to confirm that I'm still getting lockups. 
I'll then trying downgrading to 2.6.10 (SMP) to see what happens.
Hmm... The latest ivtv-project modules (v0.3.x, cx25840 module) had this 
problem as well (with lockups that is). Their problem was aggressive stack 
usage in combination with 4k-stacks turned on. Setting it to 8k-stacks 
solved the problem (well the problem was still there but it took longer 
until lockup). Could this be related? Just guessing...

Ok, this may be totally uncalled for/unfair/whatever and way off-topic but
here goes... I hope nobody minds me asking.

This proposal that microsoft develops, is it free for anyone to use?

Inquiring (suspicious) minds wants to know... :-)

 The VIA CN400 contains the Unichrome Pro Group A which, 3D-wise,
 should be compatible with the Unichrome, so once the DDX sets up the
 chip correctly, 3D should work right out of the box (at least as good as
 for the Unichrome).

 The DDX doesn't support the Unichrome Pro fully yet because of lack of
 HW samples. Specifically lacking is dotclock setup, 2D accel in some
 cases, Xv and XvMC. Since all developers at unichrome.sf.net are unpaid
 freetimers, that support is probably not going to happen until VIA or
 another commercial user donates a board or two.

Ok, thanks for the info. I'm currently underfunded (unemployed) myself
otherwise I would gladly donate a board...

 It depends what your interests are. If you want to master 3D graphics
 driver writing and have six months to spare you can have great fun. If
 you just want a VIA EPIA with working 3D support then the newer chipset
 (VIA CLE266) DRI is very close to working and you might want to just
 upgrade hardware and join that effort ?

Just out of curiousity: Is there any support for the VIA CN400
(ongoing/planned)?

 The command processor is a part of the graphics chip. You might think of
 it as a sophisticated DMA engine.

 However, it is, indeed, accessed via MMIO interface.

Thanks for the info.

 Take a look at http://gatos.sourceforge.net/dri-debug.php .

Thanks again!

 As for wiki feel free to put links there..

I thought it was restricted access... developer only?

 I have added a glossary page to the R300 website:

   http://r300.sf.net

It is somewhat general in nature (not R300 specific) so I would
 appreciate comments (and corrections !) from everyone who has a chance to
 look.

This is great! I've been looking for something like this.

When it comes to dma doesn't the command processor also reside in memory
(mmio)?

Also, if you would like me to put anything else there please let me
 know.

Perhaps a simple overview of the dri/drm/mesa/X-relationship (which thing
does what and so on)? On the other hand it might be good to put this
(incl. the glossary) in the wiki on freedesktop instead?
