[xorg] Problem with sna/xcomposite? (i915 video driver related)
Hi, After upgrade to intel-xorg-video 2.21.4 driver, (Intel 945GM chipset) xserver 1.12.4 crash repeatingly with sna enabled in xorg.conf. A workaround i found is to fall back on "uxa" until the issue is resolve in upstream.

SMP and i915 chipset ?
Hello, is it possible to compile linux 3.8.3 kernel with CONFIG_SMP and the i915 (intel_agp) chipset ? I have tried compiling intelfb (i810/i915) with this kernel option but got error: "CONFIG_SMP is not supported with i810" kind regards, Etienne ___ xorg@lists.x.org: X.Org support Archives: http://lists.freedesktop.org/archives/xorg Info: http://lists.x.org/mailman/listinfo/xorg Your subscription address: arch...@mail-archive.com

Problem solved. > > Dave. Well obviously i don't get how you ended up to this conclusion... intelfb.ko seem required by the kernel when modprobing i915.ko. However the issue seem to disappear when avoiding to build i810 as a module. erob@nguns:~/phonebook$ cat /proc/fb 0 inteldrmfb kind regards, Etienne ___ xorg@lists.x.org: X.Org support Archives: http://lists.freedesktop.org/archives/xorg Info: http://lists.x.org/mailman/listinfo/xorg Your subscription address: arch...@mail-archive.com
