[Bug 210780] Re: X slower after upgrade to 4GB RAM

2008-04-10 Thread Mika Fischer
This is not a bug in X. If at all it's a kernel bug. I'll write a mail to the kernel ML and see what they say. Maybe even the kernel can't fix it and it's just my BIOS that's broken... In the meantime a workaround is documented here: https://bugs.freedesktop.org/show_bug.cgi?id=15360 I'll also at

Actually that's good to know - upstream will be interested that the issue still exists in recent git versions, since it'll be something they need to investigate more deeply. It would be good for you to report that to them directly, and attach the new log; seeing proof you're subscribed couldn't hu

Bryce, thanks for forwarding the bug. I've subscribed to it. I've tried the git deb and there are no relevant changes as far as I can see. I'll attach the log and post the diff of 4GB with hardy default driver and 4GB with the git driver below (with hunks with changed dates or input event index re

Mika, I've reported the bug upstream at https://bugs.freedesktop.org/show_bug.cgi?id=15360. Would you mind also subscribing to that bug report, so that if they have additional questions or need more information, you can answer them directly? Also, I have built some recent git snapshots of the -in

Indeed, you're right, it looks like the write-combining range can' be set up with the larger memory size. Odd. Let's forward this one upstream... -(II) intel(0): Kernel reported 488960 total, 1 used -(II) intel(0): I830CheckAvailableMemory: 1955836 kB available +(II) intel(0): Kernel reported 10

I won't be able to test with 1GB, because one of the modules requries a substantial effort to replace :) I have tested it with 2GB (one module), and there the problem also does not occur. I'll attach the logs but here's the diff (without context) for convenience: --- Xorg.0.log.2GB 2008-04-0

Thanks for attaching all the relevant files. Could you make sure we have Xorg.0.log's from both the 1GB and 4GB configurations? It would be interesting to diff them to see what the x server sees as different. I think the write-combining range stuff is x server, not the kernel. I could be wrong
