I can't see why it won't for you. I just installed xorg-server from testing with "pacman -Syf xorg-server" and then everything else with "pacman -Su". Then I started X and everything was working. 2009/3/4 Georg Grabler > Hmh, I'm not using a xorg.conf either, and still X freezes with the new > d

Hmh, I'm not using a xorg.conf either, and still X freezes with the new driver and the arch stock kernel. Strange, I've filed a bug report at freedesktop for the intel driver now, let's see what they can tell us about this problem. Maybe there'll be a fix for this some time soon. On Wed, Mar 4, 2

For one, I don't use a xorg.conf at all. But when I wrote that post, I were using the 2.6.29-rc6-zen1 kernel. With the stock kernel I see much improvement (700 FPS - almost 80% improvement) with EXA. With UXA I only get about 200 FPS. 2009/3/4 Georg Grabler > Would be interested in how you got t

Would be interested in how you got that chipset running with the new drivers ... I can't get it working with the 82865G chipset, and there's not too much difference with those two. On Tue, Mar 3, 2009 at 11:22 PM, Mikkel Poulsen wrote: > According to glxgears, my FPS falls from 400 to 100 FPS. On

I've got the same problem here. The 945 chipset works fine, the 855 here does not. Anyway, what I did was simply installing the old intel driver : sudo -E pacman -U /var/cache/pacman/pkg/xf86-video-intel-2.4.3-1-i686.pkg.tar.gz So it's the intel driver which is most likely broken upstream for our

The upcoming version of xorg-server will have a lot of workarounds and patches removed. Doing so, the package becomes easier to understand, as even its maintainer has no idea what is happening anymore. When upgrading to xorg-server-1.6, you will see these file conflicts on most systems: error: fai
