It's not the VDPAU driver that's failing here, it's the kernel. When the kernel can't place a buffer into visible VRAM the buffer should be moved into GART instead for CPU access. But instead we just return a SIGBUS to the application effectively crashing it. -- You are receiving this mail because: You are the assignee for the bug. -------------- next part -------------- An HTML attachment was scrubbed...
