https://bugs.freedesktop.org/show_bug.cgi?id=29389 --- Comment #1 from Giacomo Perale <ghepeu@xxxxxxxxxxx> 2010-08-19 07:05:58 PDT --- Created an attachment (id=37981) View: https://bugs.freedesktop.org/attachment.cgi?id=37981 Review: https://bugs.freedesktop.org/review?bug=29389&attachment=37981 add parameter to disable polling I came back from vacation and found a patch from Chris Wilson in dri-devel who added a parameter to disable polling; since my bisection run pointed to the commit who enabled polling as the origin of my problem, I quickly adapted the patch to vanilla 2.6.35 to do some tests. The patch is attached to this comment; to try it patch the kernel and boot with drm_kms_helper.poll=0; be careful, without this parameter sometime X refused to start here. Since this was only a test I didn't look too hard, I think it's related to the slow work->workqueues conversion. Anyway, with polling disabled I was able to play with openarena for about 15 minutes, while with polling (without the patch) I had a hardlock in 30-60s. Since this could be important, I have a VGA/DVI card and I'm using the DVI port, with nothing connected to the VGA port. -- Configure bugmail: https://bugs.freedesktop.org/userprefs.cgi?tab=email ------- You are receiving this mail because: ------- You are the assignee for the bug. _______________________________________________ dri-devel mailing list dri-devel@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx http://lists.freedesktop.org/mailman/listinfo/dri-devel
