I'm not sure where to look for the video ram size. I didn't find anything in the Xorg log file. lspci -v reports:
01:00.0 VGA compatible controller: ATI Technologies Inc Radeon Mobility M7 LW [Radeon Mobility 7500] Subsystem: Compaq Computer Corporation Device 00b7 Flags: bus master, stepping, 66MHz, medium devsel, latency 66, IRQ 11 Memory at 48000000 (32-bit, prefetchable) [size=128M] I/O ports at 3000 [size=256] Memory at 40400000 (32-bit, non-prefetchable) [size=64K] [virtual] Expansion ROM at 40420000 [disabled] [size=128K] Capabilities: <access denied> Kernel modules: radeon, radeonfb My guess: 128M (which wouldn't fit the 32 MB of less theory) Initial situation: - Laptop, Compac Evo 610c, Karmic 32 bit - The well-known garbled output in the gnome-notifier and gnome-system-monitor with compiz off (my normal setting). - No problems with compiz turned on. - Problem still present with the current xorg-edgers drivers. Current work-around: Automatically generated xorg.conf with a single change: Option "RenderAccel" "off" Test done so far: - EXA: works but is visibly slower - KMS: works, but is visibly slower, leaves artifacts on the screen when objects are moved (which will be cleaned up eventually) ** Attachment added: "Xorg log file" http://launchpadlibrarian.net/38081207/Xorg.0.log -- (32MB) certain windows drawn garbled when XAA is used https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/426582 You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
