[Bug 565883] Re: [R350] screen corruption on 9800SE
Based on the description of the symptoms, it sort of sounds like this might be caused by an incorrect AGPMode setting, which is relevant when DRI is enabled. You should test if changing this makes the issue go away. For KMS configurations, agpmode is a kernel module parameter. Enter the grub interface during boot and append radeon.agpmode=X to the kernel boot line, where X = -1,1,2,4,8 1-8 are the agp modes, -1 uses the onboard gpu gart (PCI, PCIE, etc.) For details about this with UMS (non-KMS), please see the ATI AGP Mode Quirk section at https://wiki.ubuntu.com/X/Quirks ** Changed in: xserver-xorg-video-ati (Ubuntu) Status: Confirmed = Incomplete -- [R350] screen corruption on 9800SE https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/565883 You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
[Bug 565883] Re: [R350] screen corruption on 9800SE
Thanks for your help in investigating the problem. Somehow I'm still not sure where the problem lies. On WindowsXP the card works just perfectly and is recognized without any problems by ATI driver / ATI Cataylst. Yesterday I went back to my Ubuntu 9.10 installation and tried to install the proprietary ATI fglrx driver, but it was not possible. Linux ATI catalyst doesn't recognize the card. As a result of removing the ati ragoen driver and not being able to install fglrx the artifacts disappeared on the screen. However it's painful slow and I assume Ubuntu is using some kind of generic driver which doesn't use the 9800SE hardware at all. It almost impossible to watch a video on youtube or similar stuff which would makes use of the graphic card. Do you have any other ideas what could be the problem? Is there anything I could do to further investigate the problem?

[Bug 565883] Re: [R350] screen corruption on 9800SE
Yes, if you do not remove fglrx properly, it will keep the ati radeon from running with hardware accelerated 3D. With no acceleration you won't get the corruption, which only was visible when acceleration was in use (compiz and 3D apps).

[Bug 565883] Re: [R350] screen corruption on 9800SE
Yes, this is understood. However the artifacts appear when the radeon driver installed. Even with having the Acceleration disabled (System Preferences Appearance Visual Effects None) the screen has some artifacts (see screenshot visual-effects-disabled.png). However they don't cover the whole screen. I suppose, I need to buy another graphic card for this computer in order to use it properly with Ubuntu.

[Bug 565883] Re: [R350] screen corruption on 9800SE
Even without Visual Effects, the radeon driver uses acceleration on the card (EXA, composite etc), so some corruption can be seen. This acceleration is not used if fglrx is blocking, or if you are using the vesa driver (failsafe). With compiz it will use hw acceleration for the whole screen, that's why you see it all over. Did you have any corruption with an older version using fglrx? If not, there is probably a bug in the ati radeon driver. If you did not see corruption in older releases with ati radeon, it could be because it did not use much hw acceleration features at the time. -- [R350] screen corruption on 9800SE https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/565883 You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs

It sounds like you did it right, so I am not sure my fix makes any difference for you. The fix for gallium was definitely wrong, but I have uploaded a better version in today's PPA packages.

[Bug 565883] Re: [R350] screen corruption on 9800SE
I meant, just copy the file, without installing from PPA. Anyway, the number of fp pipes is now 1 which should be safe for these cards. If you still have corruption, there must be another reason for it. Some of these cards have only one functional pipe, or one that passed the tests at the fab, so they disabled the second in the window driver and spec'ed with 1 and called it SE. Then this series got so popular that they continued shipping it like that even if the cards actually had two perfect pipes. The linux drivers run all cards with 2 pipes, so I thought that was the problem. But you are maybe one of the lucky ones with two working pipes. And the corruption is due to something else. -- [R350] screen corruption on 9800SE https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/565883 You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs

Hmm, maybe my hypothesis is wrong.
