Hello,
just tried:
current:xserver, app, lib, proto, drm, mesa from git (default branch)
current:xf86-video-intel - modesetting branch.
Observations:
EXA - no more image corruption, good. On the other hand, x11perf -shmput500
is about FIVE times slower than XAA.
RANDR - if an application changes resolution and crashes, xrandr -s 0 results in
screen corruption. xrandr -s 1 && xrandr -s 0 fixes the corruption.
CLONE - works (If I specify MonitorLayout "CRT,LFP") good. It even work as
I would expect - setting the LFP (LVDS) to 1280x800 and the CRT to
1280x1024. However, in this mode, if I do xrandr -s 1, the LVDS goes
blank and screen is only at the CRT (-s 1 corresponds to 1152x870), OK
LVDS is not capable to use this mode. If I do xrandr -s 2 (corresponds
to mode 1024x768), the LVDS is still blank and CRT has the mode,
I guess this is wrong. At this point, I was unable to restore screen
on LVDS (except returning to the text mode).
DRI - terrible slow (ppracer is unplayable at all), using INTEL_BATCH=1 does
not help. (glxinfo:
name of display: :0.0
libGL warning: 3D driver claims to not support visual 0x73
display: :0 screen: 0
direct rendering: Yes)
Xserver startup - LVDS is two times turned off and on. After first turning on,
garbage on screen is displayed, after second turning on,
correct X screen is displayed.
Hope, Eric or Keith find this feed back useful.
