I used the following BIOS settings to get moderate timings > AGP Mode=4x > VLINK 8x disable > AGP 3.0 calibration cycle enabled > DBI output for AGP transactions disable > > The hardware itself should be pretty stable - I ran a heavy Furmark stress test New info before getting some sleep: The system was using swrast above because it didnt use kms. If I force KMS by using radeon.modeset=0 on the kcl, radeon and r600 will be loaded even if i set radeon.agpmode=-1. The system will then freeze after loading X and showing a few windows. So the improvement w/o AGP is not freezing immediately. -- Configure bugmail: https://bugzilla.kernel.org/userprefs.cgi?tab=email ------- You are receiving this mail because: ------- You are watching the assignee of the bug. ------------------------------------------------------------------------------ Lotusphere 2011 Register now for Lotusphere 2011 and learn how to connect the dots, take your collaborative environment to the next level, and enter the era of Social Business. http://p.sf.net/sfu/lotusphere-d2d -- _______________________________________________ Dri-devel mailing list Dri-devel@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx https://lists.sourceforge.net/lists/listinfo/dri-devel _______________________________________________ dri-devel mailing list dri-devel@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx http://lists.freedesktop.org/mailman/listinfo/dri-devel
