my Radeon 8500 log
It was suggested I post my log to the list. OpenGL programs from xscreensaver lock up my Linux hard. The -bpp option is no longer supported. Use -depth to set the color depth, and use -fbbpp if you really need to force a non-default framebuffer (hardware) pixel format. This is a pre-release version of XFree86, and is not supported in any way. Bugs may be reported to [EMAIL PROTECTED] and patches submitted to [EMAIL PROTECTED] Before reporting bugs in pre-release versions, please check the latest version in the XFree86 CVS repository (http://www.XFree86.Org/cvs).

lockups
I've complained about lockups in the past. I have uninstalled xscreensaver 4.14 and my PC has not locked up for two days so far. What worries me is that a poorly writen or buggy program can lock up my machine hard so that only a hard reset will cure it.

Re: radeon dri lockup
On Sun, 15 Feb 2004, Jonathan Isom wrote: I have a Radeon 8500 that also locks up hard. I enabled sysrq in my kernel and lockup makes kernel too broken even for that. I am currently using 2.6.3-rc3, but all other kernels I tried lockup too. It appears the lockup is in the dri somewhere as the machine runs for days when no GUI has been used. I suspect that the problem may be in the OpenGL somewhere because most of the time the machine is frozen on a OpenGL xscreensaver. I haven't noticed a particular one though. What I have been doing is using the GUI for a while and then changing back to the console so the machine does not lock up, but I have noticed that the machine is becoming unstable even without the GUI running and a reboot is still necessary eventually. What I mean is that running the GUI eventually makes the machine unstable even if it is not allowed to actually lockup. I have tried various window managers and it does not seem to matter which one, eventually all have locked up when left on for several hours. I am going to try uninstalling xscreensaver and leaving the GUI up to see what happens. I've got a Radeon 7000 that locks up hard on a linux 2.4.23. no logs are written requiring power cycle.

And i had only one lockup so far (and i was'nt able to trace the error back to xfree since linux 2.6.0 also had some problems). It was a hard lockup, so couldn't do anything in finding the error. I have a Radeon 8500, X11 4.3.99.902, and kernel 2.6.0 all on a dual Athlon. There seems to be a problem when I run gnome 2.4 and xscreensaver. The computer locks up hard and cannot be accessed even via a remote terminal. Most of the lockups seem to occur when an OpenGL screensaver is running. There were lockups in the past with some of the 2.6.0-test? versions, but it was always possible to login remotely and shutdown/reboot etc. Only way to get back on is to hit the reset. I have compiled and installed kernel 2.6.1. I'll see what happens with that.

2.6.x is different than 2.4.x in respect to the DRI/AGP modules, but
glxinfo still shows DRI is not working.
So it was likely AGP.
Eventually the display locked up at mode 2 too, though it took a lot
longer. I have been trying to compile the latest CVS and am not having

It is NOT the server market, it is the grafics render farming and the related grafics editing at the desks of the movie industry. I honestly don't know for a fact that the server market is bigger than the movie renderfarm market. I am just speculating that it is base on casual reading of trade websites and periodicals. Just because there are more general internet using businesses than movie businesses. Servers don't need high performance 3D or 2D graphics. In fact many servers are probably not administered with a GUI at all. I don't know how many CAD/CAM applications are done using Linux either, but probably much less than Windows and Solaris/SGI. I am not trying to argue against high performance and complete ATI or Nvidia opensource drivers. I was just playing devils advocate. Linux is my favorite OS.

I tried setting CC and BOOTSTRAPCFLAGS and neither gets rid of the problem completely. I also have a problem with /usr/bin/cpp being hard coded in various places. I complain about this because I often use different compiler versions. I would rather just set the PATH to point to the directiry of the compiler in use for cpp, gcc, etc. I see in the imake.c and imakemdep.h that /usr/bin/cpp is being hard-coded into the executables. Also many of the Makefiles, presumably they are being constructed via imake, contain this hard-coded path. Maybe someone better informed than me can comment on this.

I've noticed that sometimes even though the make World goes off without a hitch the make install will sometimes fail. To be able to easily switch back to erlier versions I always build RPMs from the CVS build. The specfile was based on the original SuSE packages but then heavily modified. With these RPM I was able to rewind the server packages to a date where the vt-switch did work, but left the libraries at an up-todate version. My system uses Debian apt/dpkg though it is not a Debian system. I also have RPM installed but I have gotten used to using the Debian tools and prefer using them. Most of the time I use the checkinstall program to install programs built from sources. On occasion I will install a packages from Debian if I can't get the sources or can't get the sources to compile myself. Since my machine is not identified as a Debian system the dependencies are usually screwed up and I end up using dpkg with force dependences. I have used this Linux system like this for years and I know what I have installed so this works *for me*.

[Xpert]installing xfree
I compiled a new X from CVS yesterday. I have been playing with it a little and it looks like the fonts rendering is much better than the version I had been using, which is two or three months old. First is it better to just do a 'make install' over the old version or just untar the new version over the old? Any suggestions welcome. Also as far as the font rendering: Should I have seen some improvements or am I crazy? Lastly, I copied the fonts from my Windows 98SE partition to Linux. How do I make sure that X can use those?

I have a similar machine running RedHat which does not exhibit the problem. IIRC, on RedHat xdm dies if the X server misbehaves, and init restarts xdm. On Debian, xdm retries the X server, and if X mis-behaves often enough* xdm ignores that X session. For me, I'm not sure whether the X server completed with the wrong return code, or DDC on DVI meant that the xdm gave up waiting for the server to restart. I guess I forgot to add I am not using xdm or gdm. I boot to a console and startx. I currently am using icewm. When I said I log out I meant I use the logout menu on icewm. This should return me to the text console. This is where I get the black screen. I can't switch consoles or anything like that because the display/console is hosed.

[Xpert]Question on X runtime error
I've tried compiling and running the latest xmcd on Linux with OpenMotif and I get the following error. I am using gcc-3.1.1 on Linux pc1 2.4.19-rc5 #36 SMP, GNU assembler 2.12.90 20020501, XFree86 Version 4.2.99.1. I have a Radeon 8500. The precompiled binary from the XMCD web page works. I also compiled a number of other Motif apps, just to test my Motif install and they all work mostly. My OpenMotif was probably compiled against an older version of XFree86, probably 4.2.0 and probably using an older gcc, like version 3.0. Anyone have an idea of where I could start looking in order to solve this problem? I hope this is not too far off topic.

[Xpert]Joystick driver redux
I was trying to get the joystick driver compiled (in Xfree 4.2.0) and I got several errors. Searching through some old xpert messages, I found that the errors are a known problem. What was the concensus on the driver? Is it not required? I was trying to get joystick support in xmame working. I got my USB joystick to work with svgalib, but want it to work with X11 too.
