[Ubuntu-x-swat] [Bug 455628] Re: Open source drivers rotate textures on ATI Xpress 200M under wine
One last post. I have tested the ATI OSS drivers on the Intrepid 32bit Live CD and they worked great. Even better than Karmic. The performance was also good and all textures showed up normally. I am certain that the 64bit ones on that distribution still did not work for me. So the problem seems to be with the architecture. The drivers for the ATI R300 series in 64bit have obvious problems with 32bit 3D access. I suspect it may be a failure to restore some 64bit register before running the 32bit code. -- Open source drivers rotate textures on ATI Xpress 200M under wine https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/455628 You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu-X, which is subscribed to xserver-xorg-video-ati in ubuntu. ___ Mailing list: https://launchpad.net/~ubuntu-x-swat Post to : ubuntu-x-swat@lists.launchpad.net Unsubscribe : https://launchpad.net/~ubuntu-x-swat More help : https://help.launchpad.net/ListHelp
[Ubuntu-x-swat] [Bug 455628] Re: Open source drivers rotate textures on ATI Xpress 200M under wine
It would seem that there is a notable difference in how the 32bit version of the driver and the 64bit version operate and even what media acceleration is reported to be supported in glxinfo. I understand that if you are running 64bit you will have all those features automatically, but it is still nice to see it there. I wonder if there might be a bug here. It seems that your card supports TCL and you still suffer that problem, so it's isn't TCL causing it then. I also noticed that you are using an Intel chipset motherboard; mine is ATI/AMD chipset based, so that eliminates the motherboard as well. You aren't even using ubuntu kernel sources. That leaves the only commonality being the ATI video and 64bit arch. Have you tried a 32bit LiveCD to see if it still has the problem. I haven't had an opportunity to do that yet. I am downloading a desktop LiveCD of Karmic to test it out. We may be noticing a strange bug that is brought on by the 64bit arch. If that is the case, I may be leaving the 64bit world soon.

[Ubuntu-x-swat] [Bug 455628] Re: Open source drivers rotate textures on ATI Xpress 200M under wine
Well I have the answer. It appears to be either a bug with the way wine implements its 32bit to 64bit 3D rendering or with the way the ATI drivers handle 3D requests from 32bit programs. I suspect the latter, because I was able to run wine on 64bit with proprietary drivers before, and running wine in a 32bit Live CD seems to work. The rendering is terribly slow on the Karmic CD, but all the graphics renders properly. I also noticed that the glxinfo reports all the media acceleration features in 32bit mode, but not in 64bit mode. I will try the Jaunty 32bit CD as well to see if the rendering speed is any better there. It would seem to indicate that there is definitely an architecture problem with 64bit ATI OSS video drivers at least for the R300 series. I'm not sure this would affect everyone, but most definitely two cases with built-in laptop video have been reported so far. Both using the R300 series driver. Bryce, I think this should be reported upstream.

[Ubuntu-x-swat] [Bug 455628] Re: Open source drivers rotate textures on ATI Xpress 200M under wine
I have received no feedback since I posted this last month. My curiosity is whether this may be a weak ATI OSS video driver implementation issue exposed by a 32bit/64bit conflict. The wine layer technically runs everything in 32bit mode on a 64bit architecture running 3D against a 64bit driver which is a very complicated situation to say the least. Paul: What is your arch? 64 or 32 bit? Please post the output of: uname -r uname -m lspci glxinfo Once we have this info we may be able to figure out where it's going wrong. In the mean time, I will test a 32bit live CD on my laptop to see if that may bypass the issue. If the live CD works it may be a problem with the OSS video driver's implementation of 32bit 3D rendering in 64bit mode. If not, I suspect that it may be related to embedded Mobility chips and an incomplete implementation of software TCL. I remember that the closed source drivers on their final release for my hardware finally started working properly, but until that driver they also would not work right I'm just not sure what changed. i know the 9600 [RV350] is a desktop card which has hardware TCL, but my laptop does not.

Attached is the image of what the screen looks like. There are also a number of errors that come up constantly with: err:d3d:state_undefined Undefined state. It seems as if the GL state becomes lost somewhere along the way, so none of the textures have correct coordinates. This problem has pervaded every version of open source driver I have tried over four editions of Kubuntu, but the latest closed source binary (that supports r300 chipsets) worked fine. However, the recent closed source drivers which support the newer kernels and xorg server don't support r300 anymore.

[Ubuntu-x-swat] [Bug 347569] Re: [RS482] low performance due to removal of _tnl_ProgramCacheInit()
I haven't tried that, but as I understand it, they are tightly integrated and it's the DRM module that is crashing the system anyways, not the radeon driver piece, however the driver DOES need to be updated to solve the problem too. The radeon package only contains the xorg- driver loadable module, which provides the DRM piece access to provide the DRI interface for X programs. We need the DRM piece updated as the current one is buggy. The old one mistreats non-TCL cards and misuses the CPU, and the current one crashes often on TCL cards. I just don't see being able to quickly pass a whole DRM/driver upgrade process as this will affect everyone on all systems. BTW the driver/drm on that site is mainly for radeon, so I'm not sure how the upgrade would affect Intel/nv/nouveau drivers. I have been testing these new drivers and DRM on a TCL enabled card and they are stable and functional without needing any upgrade to Mesa. I have had a crash running WoW on wine, but that was after playing for hours in D3D mode. I couldn't even get into the world at all before with the current drivers without kernel locking the system. The crash I experienced only took down wine, not X, so it was more likely a wine problem. If we could possibly pull these patches for the radeon branch of DRM alone that would be great, but I think considerable core DRM updates exist in this newer version which may prevent it. One more thing to note: I noticed that if I run the 2.6.30 kernel with these new modules the system runs fluidly and when I ran 2.6.28 I received random freezing which would resume after a few seconds until one time I received a total hard lock (numlock no longer worked). So there is a problematic kernel portion involved in this too. I am running on ext4, so that may be the problem there. This was in WoW of course, but I expect similar results in any other intense 3D apps. All OpenGL apps/games I've tried work just fine (extreme tux racer, warzone 2100, blender). Oh, and for a real teaser, WoW runs at 10-20 FPS in a busy area in wine D3D mode on my Radeon 9600 without needing to disable any extensions (I could not get opengl mode to work unfortunately). All other 3D apps are equally fluid and nice. It's not a superb card by any stretch of the imagination, so likely all radeon cards should see impressive improvements. Still need to test non-TCL cards though for the original problem of this thread. My non-TCL laptop has been upgraded to karmic so this driver is not necessary anymore for it. It runs fine. The caveats are that I noticed a few graphical anomolies in wine d3d with the texture handling, but nothing that causes tremendous harm. It was working better than I've ever seen on OSS radeon drivers. -- [RS482] low performance due to removal of _tnl_ProgramCacheInit() https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/347569 You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu-X, which is subscribed to mesa in ubuntu. ___ Mailing list: https://launchpad.net/~ubuntu-x-swat Post to : ubuntu-x-swat@lists.launchpad.net Unsubscribe : https://launchpad.net/~ubuntu-x-swat More help : https://help.launchpad.net/ListHelp

[Ubuntu-x-swat] [Bug 406731] Re: Screen corruption when changing focus xserver-xorg-video-ati
Ok, this driver is amazing. All I can say is WOW! And it takes a LOT to impress me. I did have it crash the desktop once while loading virtualbox minimized and unminimizing it, but that may have been virtualbox that did that since I think that may have happened with the old driver too. Everything feels 40% faster, and even glxgears shows a higher fps (I know that doesn't mean much, but it does correlate). glxgears doesn't cause the black blanking effect it did before, and I haven't been able to reproduce the bug mentioned above. It appears that freeciv still suffers from poor redraw, but I haven't tested it on a different graphics driver to see if the driver is really the cause. glxgears shows impressive graphics management where it runs at 30% cpu while showing in the foreground at 3000+ fps I might add (the old driver barely made 2200), but idles to 4% when obscured by other windows. There is a negative side effect to this reduction in that the fps results goes down, but if a window is obscured, that behaviour is acceptable to me since the window is not visible anyways and it frees cpu resources for other processes. I also required nomodeset on the kernel line before to boot into a graphical environment without crash. Now I can remove it without harm. All in all, I vote to move this driver into Karmic as the main driver for release. Of course, more testing is needed to ensure everyone has as positive a result as I am having. -- Screen corruption when changing focus xserver-xorg-video-ati https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/406731 You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu-X, which is subscribed to xserver-xorg-video-ati in ubuntu. ___ Mailing list: https://launchpad.net/~ubuntu-x-swat Post to : ubuntu-x-swat@lists.launchpad.net Unsubscribe : https://launchpad.net/~ubuntu-x-swat More help : https://help.launchpad.net/ListHelp

I am noticing more and more opengl bugs I ran into before which are also fixed with this driver. There remains only one left, but I don't think it will ever be resolved. epsxe runs opengl fullscreen in a semi windowed mode and it flickers badly when desktop effects are on, but suspending Desktop Effects is sufficient to resolve it. There was an overlay bug previously with epsxe which required me to overlay a window on it to see the opengl rendered screen clearly.

[Ubuntu-x-swat] [Bug 347569] Re: [RS482] low performance due to removal of _tnl_ProgramCacheInit()
590fps is normal on the RS690 chipset with the open source drivers. I get around 570fps which is similar. So it looks like it is working to me. My guess is that you are suffering from a power management problem instead, which may be related to the new video power management code. Besides that, your configuration sounds like it is functioning normally to me. If you want faster 3d however, you'll need to initiate performance mode. Unfortunately, the ondemand power saving mode isn't smart enough to realize that you want faster 3d graphics, it just looks at cpu demand. They should fix this problem eventually, but it may be valid to submit a separate bug report about power management affecting 3d performance. That said, I don't think I experience this problem in ondemand mode, but I probably don't have the same cpu, system board or possibly driver that you do and I run in 64bit mode.

What happens if you use the links above regarding radeon-rewrite and the new radeon drivers? You will have to undo those changes if you want other OpenGL apps to still run without freezing your system, but if that solves your problem for glxgears and desktop effects then you may need to wait for those drivers.

Irom Nike: You should be able to try out the .deb file posted above, but be warned that it is an untested binary and may break something. If you installed the jaunty-updates version of mesa, then you may need all the mesa related packages updated with the patch versions.

I might even be able to compile them remotely, but I have been having troubles with that computer since I upgraded it to jaunty (Almost a cliche). It isn't jaunty's fault on that machine, it has been sick for some time, the upgrade just exposed its issues. BTW. I have done more tests with that patch against desktop effects, games, wined3d, etc. It has been rock solid for me, but my computer has no TCL. I am uncertain whether a card with TCL would break or not. Bryce Harrington: I am curious if a personal ppa is in order? Will this patch get pushed to updates or backports?

It is faster than I ever remember my card functioning and the constant memory leak issues that I used to experience seem to have gone away. Videos that used to pin my cpu (3d texture mapped) now don't even make the computer busy at all. 3D video games run faster than I ever remember them running, and likewise don't tax the computer anymore, and the general stability of the system seems to have improved. Obviously, because of the reduced cpu usage my computer consistently runs cooler and the battery lasts longer. I would like those with TCL capabilities to offer their experiences too. If it locks up TCL supporting cards, we obviously can't send the patch to the updates repo, but we can reserve it only to certain models in a ppa. -- [RS482] glxgears low fps https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/347569 You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu-X, which is subscribed to xserver-xorg-video-ati in ubuntu. ___ Mailing list: https://launchpad.net/~ubuntu-x-swat Post to : ubuntu-x-swat@lists.launchpad.net Unsubscribe : https://launchpad.net/~ubuntu-x-swat More help : https://help.launchpad.net/ListHelp
[Ubuntu-x-swat] [Bug 347569] Re: [RS482] glxgears low fps
I also have a 200M chipset on a laptop and have been experiencing the same troubles. I followed the link that sergks left there and installed those components, I also installed the newer radeon drivers, but it messed up my ability to run any GL programs that would run before, GLX gears runs beautifully however, and so does desktop effects. I will try using the older driver again to be sure that it isn't as a result of the new driver alone. -- [RS482] glxgears low fps https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/347569 You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu-X, which is subscribed to xserver-xorg-video-ati in ubuntu. ___ Mailing list: https://launchpad.net/~ubuntu-x-swat Post to : ubuntu-x-swat@lists.launchpad.net Unsubscribe : https://launchpad.net/~ubuntu-x-swat More help : https://help.launchpad.net/ListHelp
[Ubuntu-x-swat] [Bug 347569] Re: [RS482] glxgears low fps
More on the previous post. It appears that the updated Mesa does fix this problem, but other programs like warzone 2100 and wine are built against mesa 1.4 libraries and they crash the whole system. The updated radeon drivers don't seem to have any noticeable effect. In order to implement this fix with the 1.6 base, just about every Mesa linked 3D program would also need updating. I doubt this will ever happen, but the fix mentioned above can be applied to the 1.4.0 branch. The details of the official patch are here: http://cgit.freedesktop.org/mesa/mesa/commit/?id=ed4c6cbe017b4e8bacb7e012d4baaf77a20a2c33 We just need to backport it. -- [RS482] glxgears low fps https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/347569 You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu-X, which is subscribed to xserver-xorg-video-ati in ubuntu. ___ Mailing list: https://launchpad.net/~ubuntu-x-swat Post to : ubuntu-x-swat@lists.launchpad.net Unsubscribe : https://launchpad.net/~ubuntu-x-swat More help : https://help.launchpad.net/ListHelp

This patch is the wrong one. It is an old patch. The correct patch has similar results to the mesa libraries mentioned above. -- [RS482] glxgears low fps https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/347569 You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu-X, which is subscribed to xserver-xorg-video-ati in ubuntu. ___ Mailing list: https://launchpad.net/~ubuntu-x-swat Post to : ubuntu-x-swat@lists.launchpad.net Unsubscribe : https://launchpad.net/~ubuntu-x-swat More help : https://help.launchpad.net/ListHelp

Updated patch. This one moves one of the TNL lines. Apparently it improves performance, but as the author mentioned it causes lockups for some things. I will test is thoroughly. ** Attachment added: r300 performance fix http://launchpadlibrarian.net/27634168/r300_context_tnlcache_fix.patch -- [RS482] glxgears low fps https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/347569 You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu-X, which is subscribed to xserver-xorg-video-ati in ubuntu. ___ Mailing list: https://launchpad.net/~ubuntu-x-swat Post to : ubuntu-x-swat@lists.launchpad.net Unsubscribe : https://launchpad.net/~ubuntu-x-swat More help : https://help.launchpad.net/ListHelp
