sorry problem compiling source.

> sorry problem compiling source.

Do you mean this bug report is invalid as a compiling issue? Or could you git-bisect to the exact culprit commit?

btw, I'm not seeing this issue with the latest driver.

Hi there,

I finally found commit causign complete computer freeze at my configuration bisecting tree:

The one which causes problems is:
# bad: [552a1b824db31a234d7c5cb71057ed0e0ce64477] Disable a bunch of clock gating disables on IGD_GM, which doesn't need them.

Can anybody remove it from tree or solve problem it caused?

Thanks a lot

Michal

Do you actually have the hardware that the commit in question affects?

Could you attach Xorg.0.log? That commit only impacts a specific hardware, and I suspect it's probably not the one you are using.

Hi Gordon,

my hardware is Acer TravelMate 242 with Intel 852GME.

Then I don't see any possible way it could be the commit you bisected to.

Don't ask me how bisect works - but now it runns again...I will add log from successful start with version I bisected and with latest git which crashes my computer. Give me sec...

response? Michal?

Xorg.0.log-bad taken with while true; do sync;done & at the background, hopefully almost complete

anything fishy from the log, zhenyu? is there any other info or action we can ask michal to do?

So 2.3.1 and 2.3.2 works for you, but git master failed? I think it's still FIFO issue we haven't resolved so far.

re-assign to Jesse. 

If it really is a FIFO issue, the latest patch in 16169 might help.  Can you give it a try?

Oh, you'll need to apply the patch to git master too, it has some other fixes for 855 as well.

I'm pretty sure we've fixed this one, please re-open if that's not the case, Michael.

Thanks,
Jesse
