Well, I've seen the problem with my binaries. Maybe the server is just a red herring anyway, as I also experienced it with sawfish. It would be great if anyone could determine a pattern behind this or even better the cause. :/ One other suspicion I'd like to mention though is sleep. I don't think I've seen the problems with this new TiBook yet, which I can't put to sleep yet. > When I was running your binaries I only had Indirect rendering for glx, now > when I am am > using the full package I am using the r128 driver (I couldn't see a > manpage for ati, and I was puzzled why it worked.) and I have Direct > Rendering: > > OpenGL vendor string: VA Linux Systems, Inc. > OpenGL renderer string: Mesa DRI Rage128 20010405 M3 AGP 1x > OpenGL version string: 1.2 Mesa 3.4.2 > > I saw from another post that direct rendering is unstable with the M3. > I did get a system crash last night when changing the display settings > in quake2 (To use lower detail, as the framerate slowed dramatically > when an explosion was visible). > > Could this be related? Or is it a completely seperate issue. The latter. Direct rendering is unrelated to input, and I don't have DRI enabled in my normal session, where I experienced the problems. -- Earthling Michel Dänzer (MrCooper)/ Debian GNU/Linux (powerpc) developer XFree86 and DRI project member / CS student, Free Software enthusiast -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to [EMAIL PROTECTED] with a subject of "unsubscribe".
