It is difficult to answer your questions, because it is not clear what environment you are describing or which driver's options you're referring to. The only option named anything like "buffer cache" in the open drivers is in the intel driver (where it is a debugging option to _disable_ the cache if you're using the old uxa acceleration code). But I don't know if that's relevant to you, because an "ASUS R7 240" seems to be a radeon, which would not use that driver. In general the correct option settings for "2D only" are: the defaults. And that tends to be true for 3D workloads as well. That Xorg had options controlling these kinds of cache sizes before was because the drivers were too naïve to dynamically allocate memory to different subsystems. Page flipping is an optimization where the display can update by switching between two different pixel buffers, rather than copying pixels from one buffer to another. You want it enabled, unless you're seeing graphical corruption and disabling page flipping fixes that corruption, in which case it's a bug and we'd like to hear about it. - ajax _______________________________________________ xorg@lists.x.org: X.Org support Archives: http://lists.freedesktop.org/archives/xorg Info: https://lists.x.org/mailman/listinfo/xorg Your subscription address: %(user_address)s
