Hello, Following my comment #217: I had no problem since this comment until tonight. I was looking a video from http://www.youtube.com/NASATelevision and found the video very jerky, however it was already jerky before my upgrade to X 1.8.2 and the 2.12 intel video driver from Brian package. I think this jerky effect became very pronounced since I upgraded from 8.04 to 10.04. Hence, I wanted to know if hardware acceleration was working or not. Looking at ubuntu forum I found I could use the command: glxinfo | grep "direct rendering" to have the answer. So I typed the glxinfo command above and the result was (all three in a row): 1 - the GUI disappeared, replaced by many error text lines 2 - a black screen (cursor at upper left corner) 3 - the GUI reappeared but offering me to logon ...
By looking at /var/log/Xorg.0.log.old, I can see a segmentation fault occured (see attached file). Can't I use the "glxinfo" command ? What can I do to: - not have this error - have a video of better quality Best Regards, Jean-Marie ** Attachment added: "Xorg.0.log.old" https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/lucid/+source/xserver-xorg-video-intel/+bug/541492/+attachment/1575700/+files/Xorg.0.log.old -- MASTER: [i845] GPU lockup (apport-crash) (Should KMS be blacklisted?) https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/541492 You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu-X, which is the registrant for xf86-video-intel. _______________________________________________ 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
