This should be fixed in the 2D driver now: commit 0cb87ccfe97b0e016e47dcf236fd5ce78dddfc4b Author: Kristian Høgsberg <krh@redhat.com> Date: Fri Jan 30 17:53:03 2009 -0500 Implement front buffer resize for KMS. can you confirm by testing the git version? I'm unable to build the current git: i830_memory.c: In function ‘i830_allocator_init’: i830_memory.c:539: error: ‘I915_SETPARAM_NUM_USED_FENCES’ undeclared (first use in this function) i830_memory.c:539: error: (Each undeclared identifier is reported only once i830_memory.c:539: error: for each function it appears in.) make[4]: *** [i830_memory.lo] Error 1 Is there a working snapshot available? Oh you need drm headers with that parameter defined. Or you could just add the following two defines to the top of that file somewhere. #define I915_PARAM_NUM_FENCES_AVAIL 6 #define I915_SETPARAM_NUM_USED_FENCES 4 With the changes you suggested, I managed to get the 2D driver compiled. Sadly X freezes within seconds after fluxbox starts, but on the bright side it definitely looks like the right resolution gets set. (GDM won't hang and everything looks good there) The wallpaper in fluxbox looks correct as well, before it was drawn distorted and misplaced. There were no logged errors with 2.6.29-rc3 and the 2D-git driver, so I can't tell you what's wrong. I think this particular bug is resolved, and the X freeze is another, unrelated issue. Another thing I am seeing is poor 2D scrolling performance e.g. in text editors, terminals or any kind of lists. It was there with 2.6.29-rc3 with the wrong resolution and now I am noticing it with 2.6.27 and the 2D git driver. Even more annoying: Every driver later than xf86-video-intel-2.5.* will cause X to restart when I try to watch a video with xine or any other video player on 2.6.27, but it worked with 2.6.29-rc3 even with the wrong resolution. Long story short: The new 2D driver is working very poor with 2.6.27 and 2.6.29-rc3 causes X to freeze right now. I'm installing 2.5.1 again now, I'll check out git in a few days again. Thanks. Please file new bugs for the other issues. |

Created attachment 22414 [details] Xorg.0.log I'm using Ubuntu 8.10 with the following self-compiled software: Linux kernel 2.6.29-rc3 xf86-video-intel-2.6.1 libdrm-2.4.4 Mesa 7.3 I enabled KMS in the Kconfig and the system loads inteldrmfb on startup (which looks quite nice) and obviously uses the correct resolution. Then gdm starts up, the resolution still looks correct. But as soon as I log on and fluxbox is started, the resolution obviously is wrong (can't see the lower part of my desktop). Looking at the Xorg.0.log I found that my resolution was set to 1920x1920, but my monitor only does 1920x1200. Here's the interesting parts of it, full logs are attached: (II) intel(0): [drm] Using the DRM lock SAREA also for drawables.
