I have motherboard with VIA MVP3 chipset.
I noticed big video slowdown since 2.4.2-ac21. Watching "divx" by avifile with
new kernels is impossible, becouse very bad performance. Now, after few hours -
I found the reason, and I don't understand it.
It has nothing to do with mtrr
After compiling 2.4.2-ac21 I noticed, that aviplay works much slower than
before. "benchmark" from avifile shows that video output is about 3 times
slower. I tested -ac22, -ac23, ..., -ac27, then 2.4.1, 2.4.2 and few other
versions earlier than -ac21.

60 Hz modes should be marked 60 Hz.

I also had my 3c905 behave this way with ac21. ac20 is ok. System uses an ABit kt7a
board.

2.4.2-ac21 seems to have a couple problems. First the fs was acting very
strangely, while compiling; the compiler complained about being unable
to find files and directory's that existed. I was able to cd to those
directory's and see the files with ls, (I was recompiling a

You need to avoid enabling 64G support. The PAE stuff (as Linus said with
2.4.3pre6) is currently broken. Once Linus and co fix it I'll merge the fixed
one

Linux 2.4.2-ac21 does not like my box, or the other way around:
loading the agpgart module (MGA G400 AGP) -> system hangs
loading the SCSI module (53c875) -> system hangs
In both cases, the magic SysRq sequence does not work, but it is still possible

I compiled 2.4.3-pre6 and 2.4.2-ac21 and noticed, that aviplay works
much worse than before. Avifile benchmark told me:
Average video output speed: 20.566223 Mb/s
On 2.2.18 and earlier 2.4.2-ac* it gives 50-55Mb/s.
mtrr is enabled:

Yes. Via KT133.

Actually this port was done by Jun Sun (based on the DDB5074 port).

Hi,
With -ac21 I'm getting occasional long delays in video output with xawtv
or the picture totally freezes until I click with the mouse in the xawtv
window. dmesg shows:
