Screen dump
This is how my screen looks. I pulled the terminal window out to the right and
back again.
Oh, and these are my children on the desktop. Aren't they pretty ;-)
They certainly are :-). Was that whole purpose of filing this bug? (In reply to comment #4) > They certainly are :-). Was that whole purpose of filing this bug? Nope. If that had been the case, I wouldn't have put a terminal over my daughters face, would I? ;-) Are you seeing the same behaviour? It would be nice to test with a non widescreen monitor, but I haven't got any to try right now... Played around a bit with xrandr. It seems that I get this behaviour with all modes that are "widescreen". For example 1024x768 or 800x600 works (although of course they aren't pretty). This is just texture sizing. Something about the new driver is causing your maximum texture size to have shrunk from 2048 square to 1024 square. I don't see anything obvious that would cause this though... Ok. Anything I can do to trace it? Does this say you anything useful?
$ glxinfo -l|grep TEXTURE_SIZE
libGL warning: 3D driver claims to not support visual 0x4b
GL_MAX_TEXTURE_SIZE = 2048
GL_MAX_3D_TEXTURE_SIZE = 128
GL_MAX_CUBE_MAP_TEXTURE_SIZE_ARB = 1024
Sorry. It's me being stupid. The above output is from the 1.6.5-10 driver, the
1.6.5-11 generates:
$ glxinfo -l|grep TEXTURE_SIZE
libGL warning: 3D driver claims to not support visual 0x5b
GL_MAX_TEXTURE_SIZE = 1024
GL_MAX_3D_TEXTURE_SIZE = 128
GL_MAX_CUBE_MAP_TEXTURE_SIZE_ARB = 512
Found the following: http://forums.fedoraforum.org/printthread.php?t=138937 I played around with driconf and changed the setting suggested in the url. Now it looks like this: $ glxinfo -l|grep TEXTURE_SIZE libGL warning: 3D driver claims to not support visual 0x5b GL_MAX_TEXTURE_SIZE = 2048 GL_MAX_3D_TEXTURE_SIZE = 256 GL_MAX_CUBE_MAP_TEXTURE_SIZE_ARB = 2048 ...but nevertheless my screen looks exactly like before. I'm seeing this behavior on an i945-based Mac Mini:
[wwoods@kraid ~]$ glxinfo -l|grep TEXTURE_SIZE
libGL warning: 3D driver claims to not support visual 0x5b
GL_MAX_TEXTURE_SIZE = 2048
GL_MAX_3D_TEXTURE_SIZE = 256
GL_MAX_CUBE_MAP_TEXTURE_SIZE_ARB = 2048
Interestingly my desktop is a mere 256x256. Furthermore, I see the same thing on
an i915-based Thinkpad T43, which is *not* widescreen. Even stranger, the
glxinfo output there appears to be accurate:
[wwoods@zebes ~]$ glxinfo -l|grep TEXTURE_SIZE
libGL warning: 3D driver claims to not support visual 0x5b
GL_MAX_TEXTURE_SIZE = 256
GL_MAX_3D_TEXTURE_SIZE = 32
GL_MAX_CUBE_MAP_TEXTURE_SIZE_ARB = 128
Bah. I forgot that I had set allow_large_textures=2 in .drirc on the Mac Mini, hence the larger GL_MAX_TEXTURE_SIZE value. Still doesn't work. Removing .drirc gives TEXTURE_SIZE values identical to the T43. Interestingly, setting allow_large_textures=2 in /etc/drirc actually seems to let compiz work (once you restart X). Unfortunately the performance is total crap and everything looks to be at 8bpp. Strange. I guess you need to set it in /etc/drirc so that the X server itself gets that setting when it gets started by gdm? Is this any better with -19? (In tomorrow's push) Works fine for me with xorg-x11-drv-i810-1.6.5-19.fc7. Daniel, can you confirm that everything's working for you? I'm sorry, but I can't confirm this. Because of some other bug (that I'm quite sure is filed somewhere but that I don't seem to find right now) my entire screen is pure white when i use the intel driver. So I've really got no idea what works and not beyond the whiteness :-/ In response to Comment #16: I guess you mean Bug 238559 As state in the bug, latest package solves the white-screen issue. Yeah, white screen of death should be sorted now. I'm sorry, but no. Latest Rawhide as of today still produces only whiteness if I use the intel driver... After updating to 2.1.1 driver this seems to be resorted. Closing. |
