Re: [Bug 252094] Re: Poor graphics performance and rendering errors on Intel GM965 system, Ubuntu 8.10

2008-11-14 Thread Roberto Cássio Jr .
50fps on glxgears isn't an indication of vsync enabled (maybe working
incorrectly, since usual refresh rates are more likely to be 60, 75, 85
fps)?

Do you get tearing on this 50fps setup? If not, maybe this is an
evolution... just wondering.

Mike, I can confirm the 50 fps glxgears: just tried openSUSE 11.1 beta5
LiveCD, getting similar results.

Of course glxgears is not a good performance guide but in my case, the
relative framerate changes in glxgears are correlated to the relative
framerate changes in openarena timedemo when trying different versions
of ubuntu with different xorg-server, intel-driver, etc.

Paulo, I think Gentoo (and I would imagine any other distro using a
similar set of packages) also has a similar problem, although it's
phrased differently:

http://bugs.gentoo.org/237468

I'm certainly experiencing font glyphs missing in Google Earth.  Also,
although it's not a good performance guide, I'm down to 50 FPS in
glxgears, with direct rendering, EXA, composite enabled but no
compositing manager running, xorg-1.5.2, intel-2.5.1, libdrm-2.4.1
(allegedly), mesa-7.2 and kernel-2.6.27.

2008-11-14 Thread Juan Garcia
I have tested in Intrepid (fully updated at this very moment) the new
2.4.3 Intel driver:

- same issues with the rendering
- the performance has improved in around 50 FPS in glxgears reaching around 
1000 FPS (resolution 1400x900).

I also think the issue is in Mesa 7.2. The DRI Intel driver comes with Mesa.
When I turn the KDE 4.1 effects off there is no rendering corruption any more.

It seems there is some graphics memory corruption when several
applications use OpenGL simultaneously...

Any idea when Mesa 7.3 will be out and whether it will help and or will
be included in Ubuntu 8.10?

anyone know which version of the driver was used in 8.04? Would it be
possible to test this version on 8.10, or are the changes in the xserver

2008-11-12 Thread Jan Girlich
To clarify the situation a bit I made the following tests:

With no compiz activated:

$ glxinfo | grep direct
direct rendering: Yes

$ sudo glxinfo | grep direct
direct rendering: Yes

$ glxgears 
2844 frames in 5.0 seconds = 568.693 FPS
2986 frames in 5.0 seconds = 597.155 FPS
2900 frames in 5.0 seconds = 579.849 FPS

$ sudo glxgears 
2736 frames in 5.0 seconds = 547.065 FPS
3057 frames in 5.0 seconds = 611.340 FPS
3069 frames in 5.0 seconds = 613.760 FPS

With compiz activated:

$ glxinfo | grep direct
direct rendering: Yes

$ sudo glxinfo | grep direct
direct rendering: Yes

$ glxgears 
2946 frames in 5.0 seconds = 589.101 FPS
2995 frames in 5.0 seconds = 598.924 FPS
3015 frames in 5.0 seconds = 602.967 FPS

$ sudo glxgears 
2930 frames in 5.0 seconds = 585.985 FPS
2676 frames in 5.0 seconds = 535.103 FPS
2656 frames in 5.0 seconds = 531.038 FPS

My conclusions:

1. If your direct rendering as a user is not working according to
glxinfo check if it works with compiz disabled. And vice versa.

2. There is no significant difference in performance when run with user
previliges or root previliges.

Same problems in Intrepid 8.10 Final, on a Clevo M720R.

$ lspci | grep VGA
00:02.0 VGA compatible controller: Intel Corporation Mobile GM965/GL960 
Integrated Graphics Controller (rev 03)

$ glxgears

$ glxinfo

server glx vendor string: SGI
server glx version string: 1.2
(...)

glxgears flickers and stays on top of other windows, render in Google
Earth is a complete mess.

I have found something strange which could explain comments #30 and #31 :
if I switch to root :
# glxinfo gives me "direct rendering: yes" and glxgears no longer flickers. 
# glxgears 
2893 frames in 5.0 seconds = 578.459 FPS
2895 frames in 5.0 seconds = 578.897 FPS
and it no longer flickers.

Why this difference ?
However, Google Earth is still messed up.

2008-11-12 Thread Patrice Bouillet
I have the same problem with poor performance here. I just tested the
8.04 and 8.10 live cds (even the 64bit ones) and the result in glxgears
is the same. In 8.04 I have over 1000 fps in glxgears, in 8.10 it drops
to around 220 fps, sometimes even worse. Everything in compiz is very
choppy. I tried the XAA acceleration method, but it's not much of a gain
(with EXA, it is so bad that you can't really think of using compiz).

It's really annoying to work with such low fps, so if I can help with
any logs, just ask. I looked myself into them and tried to compare them
with the ones in here, but couldn't find anything similar.

I have tried downgrading to Intel driver in Intrepid by (forcibly)
replacing it with the Hardy package.

If you do this, X will refuse to start because the older driver was
compiled against a different version of X and depends on certain ABI
calls that have since been removed; consequently X won't start.

I guess one could compile the old driver against the new X and hence
backport it if one is really interested.

I did a little benchmarking regarding the graphics performance in Sidux
Ourea (released 22 Sep) and Ubuntu Intrepid, both amd64 version. The
results are in the attached tarball, and they are fairly interesting!

The hardware is a Lenovo Thinkpad R61i with an integrated Intel GM965
GPU.

I compared the log-files from both OS-es.
The several Xorg driver and module versions, reported by Xorg.0.log are the 
same. EXA is used in both cases.
Looking at glxinfo results, the main differences are in Mesa OpenGL Renderer 
and OpenGL version strings, and GLX extensions.
In neither cases does does xorg.conf contain any special device options, so it 
is not included in the tarball.

glxgears and OpenArena timedemo "anholt"
(http://dri.freedesktop.org/wiki/Benchmarking) showed remarkable
differences though. The performance under Sidux (exa!) is approximately
that of Gutsy with XAA and early-Hardy!!! (I also noticed the huge
performance drop after 8.04.1). The Interpid results are as poor as
already mentioned in this thread.

I am not an expert. Can anyone tell the cause of these differences?

2008-11-06 Thread Visitor.Q
On my system (intel X3100/ubuntu 8.10) compiz works just fine until I
start an opengl application (such as paraview). Then, the icons in the
task switcher (alt+tab) are distorted, and also the frame around window
previews (the preview you get when the mouse is over the task button) is
scrambled, and probably some other things as well. Reloading compiz
using the fusion-icon solves this issue. This was not a problem on 8.04.
When I figured that it was a opengl/compiz flaw, I wanted to have
xsever-xgl since on 8.04 it was pretty good at compiz/opengl at the same
time (at the cost of performance loss, especially with fullscreen
movies), but it is not in the repo's anymore..

2008-11-06 Thread Rocko
I don't have an Intel graphics chipset, but I find 3D in Intrepid is
considerably slower with an nvidia chipset as well - in Hardy with
compiz on, I get close to 5000 fps, but in Intrepid with compiz on I get
either 4200 fps with the older 173.14.12 driver or 3000 fps with the new
177.80 driver (40% slower!). With compiz off both Hardy and Intrepid can
manage around 5800 fps.

So maybe this bug also has something to do with compiz?

I use Kwin, not compiz. After I turned off all effects, I see no more
artifacts, however - with them on, I could see quite a bit in addition
to the effects being absurdly slow. In particular, when I opened a new

I noticed two things:
1) GL-applications seem to work better (less flickering, less textures missing) 
when compiz is turned off (tested with glxgears and google earth)
2) There is no hardware acceleration available which explains the low 
framerates (do a 'glxinfo | grep direct' to check on your machine)

I have an Inspiron 1525 notebook with GM965/GL960 Integrated Graphics
Controller. In Hardy it worked flawlessly. I upgraded to Intrepid after
it was released and I have my Ubuntu fully updated. Still, I have this
problem. If I run glxgears and move the window it leaves garbage on the
screen (seems like glxgears renders on top of compiz, which I have
enabled). Also OpenGL screensavers doesn't seem to work either,
sometimes they start, but something is wrong with them. I did not
experienced a total X lock-up until now. Also OpenArena's screen is
corrupted and the menu is invisible. Besides this normal desktop
operations work OK, and all compiz effects are also OK. I have
experienced a total system lock-up during a fullscreen video playback
after about one hour of watching, only a hard switch-off/switch-on
worked. I emphasize that this does not happened on Hardy. Maybe
something in the new intel driver features causes the problem, like the
acceleration architecture, not sure, though. In glxgears I get only
around 500 fps. I used to get above 1000 fps.

@Marc Nieper-Wißkirchen: Google Earth is unusable, the screen gets all
messed up, and the textures on the globe's surface doesn't show up,
either.
