[Dri-devel] Radeon 7500 + AMD761 Locks machine

2002-05-12 Thread Greg T Hill
Hello I posted this last month on the dri-users list in hopes that I was doing something wrong and would find out how to fix it. I eventually did fix it by installing a matrox g450, and everything works. This pretty well rules out any configuration issues and narrows it down to : radeon 7500

Jose, I've been experimenting with this too, and was able to get things going with state being emitted either from the client or the drm, though I'm still having lockups and things are generally a bit buggy and unstable still. To try client side context emits, I basically went back to having eac

As it becomes more clear that in the mach64 the best solution is to fill DMA buffers with the context state and the vertex buffers I've been trying to understand how can this be done and how the Gamma driver (which has this same model) does. The context state is available right in the beginnin
