[Bug 715939] Re: 6.14.0 and 101_select_between_classic_and_gallium_dri.patch doesn't work properly
because gallium is the default for r300 but the less mature r600 gallium driver is not yet. the classic r300 is there in case someone boots without KMS for example so it will fall back automatically, something that doesn't happen without 101_select_between_classic_and_gallium_dri.patch. -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/715939 Title: 6.14.0 and 101_select_between_classic_and_gallium_dri.patch doesn't work properly -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs

That makes sense because when compiling mesa from git, the file is not renamed to r600g_dri.so. I'll try it to be sure. A simple question though : why is the naming convention different between r300 (r300_dri.so is the gallium driver, r300c_dri.so is classic) and r600 (r600_dri.so is the classic driver, r600g_dri.so is gallium)? -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/715939 Title: 6.14.0 and 101_select_between_classic_and_gallium_dri.patch doesn't work properly -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs

I suspect that what's actually happening here is that, when ForceGallium is enabled, mesa isn't loading the dri module - because ForceGallium causes mesa to look for r600g_dri.so rather than r600_dri.so. Does copying r600_dri.so to r600g_dri.so in your mesa build fix things? That's what we do in the Ubuntu mesa build - copy the gallium driver to r600g_dri.so so we can install both r600c and r600g. -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/715939 Title: 6.14.0 and 101_select_between_classic_and_gallium_dri.patch doesn't work properly -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs

I should have mentionned the tests were done using latest Mesa from git, libdrm 2.4.23 (needed by both latest xserver-xorg-video-ati and Mesa) and that I can boot under kernels 2.6.35.11, 2.6.36.3, 2.6.37 and 2.6.38-rc4. Kernel 2.6.37 was used for testing. As you can see in the screenshots, when building my package with the 101_select_between_classic_and_gallium_dri.patch, some shadows were not rendered correctly (what can't be seen is the fact the tests were choppy). Without that patch, everything is fine in terms of rendering (shadows) and performances. Option "ForceGallium" "True" has been added in xorg.conf. -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/715939 Title: 6.14.0 and 101_select_between_classic_and_gallium_dri.patch doesn't work properly -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs

Are you referring to rendering with the default Ubuntu mesa, or that the ForceGallium option interferes with testing local builds of mesa? ** Changed in: xserver-xorg-video-ati (Ubuntu) Status: New => Incomplete ** Changed in: xserver-xorg-video-ati (Ubuntu) Importance: Undecided => High ** Changed in: xserver-xorg-video-ati (Ubuntu) Assignee: (unassigned) => Chris Halse Rogers (raof) -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/715939 Title: 6.14.0 and 101_select_between_classic_and_gallium_dri.patch doesn't work properly -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs

Obviously, from the title, I'm talking about the 101_select_between_classic_and_gallium_dri.patch. -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/715939 Title: 6.14.0 and 101_select_between_classic_and_gallium_dri.patch doesn't work properly -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
