uname -a: Linux jmp-desktop 2.6.32-24-generic #43-Ubuntu SMP Thu Sep 16 14:17:33 UTC 2010 i686 GNU/Linux I set the option Shadow at True in the xorg.conf and shutdown and restarted the machine. Then I tested glxinfo: there is no crash anymore! glxinfo | grep "direct rendering": YES celestia (1.6.0): no crash also but once launched it is slow: after celestia has launched and displayed the welcome message, top shows that the process celestia-gnome takes all the cpu available, e.g. 95% of the cpu, even when I do nothing in celestia. In celestia, If I move the mouse pointer (a cross) from the main graphics window to the "File" menu option, the pointer takes about 1 to 4 seconds to change to the arrow shape. RIght now, alt-tab from my typing this comment, to celestia takes about 4 seconds. celestia Help / OpenGL info says: Vendor: Mesa Project Renderer: Software Rasterizer Version: 2.1 Mesa 7.10-devel Max simultaneous textures: 8 Max texture size: 4096 It seems the shadow option do not accelerate anything ? -- [xorg-edgers] X server crash with intel driver when using "shadow" option https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/640058 You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu-X, which is subscribed to xserver-xorg-video-intel in ubuntu. _______________________________________________ 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
