Sounds close enough to what I'm running here, stable too, and I had frequent lockups before (6.8.2). I had noticed the lockups would occur less frequently without TCL.

Re: r200 unstable with TCL enabled
I installed xorg-x11-68.99.16 from http://xorg.freedesktop.org/snapshots/, then latest Mesa CVS (compiled with "make linux-dri-x86") and drm from CVS, now everything works fast and stable - much better than last stable xorg and Mesa.

I have Xorg from Slackware 10.2, Mesa 6.3.2 compiled with "make linux-dri", drm from CVS and R200_NO_TCL set, it is quite stable, however I was able to lock system once (OpenGL screensaver was running, I changed virtual desktop in KDE, then... lock) but only once. Should I use Xorg from CVS instead?

Are you using the radeon.ko and drm.ko modules in CVS, or stayed with the ones in Slackware ? I actually own _two_ systems that reliably crash with old snapshots (FireGL 8800 128MB and Radeon 9100 128MB) but I now have a working version : 1/ Xorg 6.8.99.15 (about 2 months old) 2/ DRM + MESA/DRI, CVS checkout of 4th of August, 2005 (I do not have the time right now to see if newer snapshots actually work...) You _have_ to replace your kernel modules with the newer ones (make linux-core) otherwise the lock is still here. I think you also have to replace your Xorg because 6.8.2 won't take the newer DRI drivers.

r200 unstable with TCL enabled
Hello. I installed Slackware 10.2, compiled Linux kernel 2.6.13 and tried some included OpenGL applications - for example xscreensaver. I was able to lock Xserver. So I tried old binary snapshots from dri.sf.net (common and r200) - but nothing changed. Then I installed drm from CVS (including libdrm), and compiled new Mesa 6.3.2 with command "make linux-dri" (I had problems with .S files when using linux-dri-x86). Still I was able to lock Xserver in less than minute, usually few seconds of OpenGL screensaver. Of course each time I was checking glxinfo to make sure that I use different versions. I remember that in the past I was using R200_NO_TCL, I set it, tested OpenGL, and... now applications are stable, I can't lock my system. Is it normal that R200 with TCL enabled is so unstable with recent versions of drm/Mesa? Just like I said - I can reproduce lock in few seconds - can I generate any debug log to send you? How? PS.
