I'm now running 2.6.11-rc3 (which gave ma a ~10% increase in glxgears fps, but didn't help with stability). Before these problems appeared (I don't remember if it started with a kernel update or a DRI update) GL applciations wouldn't crash, even when running for days. With fglrx stability back then was as bad as it is today with DRI. I haven't tried fglrx since. Maybe we should try to track down which changes introduced the stability problems.

Re: OpenGL apps causes frequent system locks
I might be wrong, but the fglrx driver reported my card as being a R280. It even ran at 8x AGP (A R280 feature, I've read). However, the DRI radeon driver reports the cards as being a R250 running at 4x AGP. I'm using an Acer laptop (Acer Ferrari 3000) with Ati Radeon Mobility 9200 M9+ 128MB. I'd really like to have a stable system, but I'm not sure what to do to figure out why it crashes.

OpenGL apps causes frequent system locks
Hi, When using OpenGL applications I get frequent X crashes as well as complete system locks. They happen totally random. My hardware is an Ati Radeon Mobility 9200 M9+. I'm using archlinux 0.7 with X.org 6.8.1 using the radeon driver. It might be a configuration error on my part, so my xorg.conf can be found at http://www.stellingwerff.com/xorg.conf for review. I want to debug this issue, but I don't know where to start. When the system locks, I can't ping the machine nor ssh to it, so that doesn't make thing easier either... One thing I noticed, is that the system locks up quicker when using heavyweight OpenGL apps like Quake 3. Light OpenGL stuff generally doesn't lock things up. This is just my perceiving though, and not hard facts. --- This SF.Net email is sponsored by: IntelliVIEW -- Interactive Reporting Tool for open source databases. Create drag--drop reports.

But unlike before, it would not crash the whole system. I was able to log in with ssh, where I noticed the following: X froze completely et.x86 was using 100% CPU A little black square is drawn over the panel (I am running ET in windowed mode). I am able to kill et.x86, but as a result the 'X' process now starts using 100% CPU. I tried killing X, but that results in nothing. I did notice that X now uses 0 VIRT, 0 RES and 0 SHR memory. The state of the X process is now 'R'. dmesg shows nothing, neither does Xorg.0.log. So I issue the 'reboot' command, and as a result I'm left with a completely unresponsive system. Network connections are dead, everything is. Have to hard-reboot.
