Prep the bisection by: $ git clone git://anongit.freedesktop.org/mesa/mesa $ cd mesa $ git bisect start $ git bisect bad $ git bisect good mesa-7.10.1 Then you will need to repeat: $ make realclean && ./autogen.sh --with-dri-drivers=i965 && make && sudo make install ... test ... $ git bisect good # if you can login in without a GPU hang $ git bisect bad # otherwise Cleaning out mesa after every step is a hassle, but it makes sure that any autogenerated files are properly rebuilt. I would suggest you use icecream, ccache and -j5 to speed up the build. Afterwards, do a careful # rm -rf /usr/local/lib/libGL* \ /usr/local/lib/pkgconfig/gl*.pc \ /usr/local/lib/dri \ /usr/local/include/GL (Why is there no make uninstall target?) -Chris -- Chris Wilson, Intel Open Source Technology Centre _______________________________________________ mesa-dev mailing list mesa-dev@lists.freedesktop.org http://lists.freedesktop.org/mailman/listinfo/mesa-dev
