Look for this line in Xorg.0.log: >>(EE) RADEON(0): [pci] Out of memory (-1007) On 2.6.9-rc1-mm5 ATM, and the above line doesn't exist in the Xorg.0.log >this is an easy fix:>>===== linux/drm_scatter.h 1.6 vs edited =====>--- 1.6/linux/drm_scatter.h Sun Sep 5 21:22:06 2004 >+++ edited/linux/drm_scatter.h Thu Sep 16 01:11:13 2004 >@@ -73,7 +73,7 @@>> DRM_DEBUG( "%s\n", __FUNCTION__ ); > >- if (drm_core_check_feature(dev, DRIVER_SG)) >+ if (!drm_core_check_feature(dev, DRIVER_SG)) > return -EINVAL; > > if ( dev->sg ) And this '!' is already in 2.6.9-rc2-mm2. I'm building a 2.6.9-rc1-mm5 with the exclamation mark now & we'll see what effect that has on glxgears once amanda is done. This patch seems to be a no-op here. Booted to it now, with no really significant difference in the slowdown: 1463 frames in 5.0 seconds = 292.600 FPS 985 frames in 5.0 seconds = 197.000 FPS 831 frames in 5.0 seconds = 166.200 FPS 727 frames in 5.0 seconds = 145.400 FPS 636 frames in 5.0 seconds = 127.200 FPS 682 frames in 5.0 seconds = 136.400 FPS 622 frames in 5.0 seconds = 124.400 FPS 622 frames in 5.0 seconds = 124.400 FPS 554 frames in 5.0 seconds = 110.800 FPS 552 frames in 5.0 seconds = 110.400 FPS 552 frames in 5.0 seconds = 110.400 FPS 464 frames in 5.0 seconds = 92.800 FPS 310 frames in 5.0 seconds = 62.000 FPS 424 frames in 5.0 seconds = 84.800 FPS 404 frames in 5.0 seconds = 80.800 FPS 422 frames in 5.0 seconds = 84.400 FPS 461 frames in 5.0 seconds = 92.200 FPS 437 frames in 5.0 seconds = 87.400 FPS 287 frames in 5.0 seconds = 57.400 FPS So while the patch may be correct, I'm apparently not hitting that exact piece of code here. Then, rebooted to 2.6.9-rc2-mm2, I'm back to this, also without any errors in the Xorg.0.log: [root@coyote root]# glxgears 60 frames in 5.0 seconds = 12.000 FPS 49 frames in 5.0 seconds = 9.800 FPS 49 frames in 5.0 seconds = 9.800 FPS 50 frames in 5.0 seconds = 10.000 FPS 49 frames in 5.0 seconds = 9.800 FPS 50 frames in 5.0 seconds = 10.000 FPS 49 frames in 5.0 seconds = 9.800 FPS 49 frames in 5.0 seconds = 9.800 FPS 48 frames in 5.0 seconds = 9.600 FPS 48 frames in 5.0 seconds = 9.600 FPS 50 frames in 5.0 seconds = 10.000 FPS 49 frames in 5.0 seconds = 9.800 FPS 43 frames in 5.0 seconds = 8.600 FPS 47 frames in 5.0 seconds = 9.400 FPS 49 frames in 5.0 seconds = 9.800 FPS 44 frames in 5.0 seconds = 8.800 FPS 31 frames in 5.0 seconds = 6.200 FPS 45 frames in 5.0 seconds = 9.000 FPS Which even I have to agree is pretty pathetic. >courtesy Jon Smirl.
