I still get occasional log lines like this: [Jun26 09:25] nouveau 0000:09:00.0: fifo: FB_FLUSH_TIMEOUT [Jun26 09:30] nouveau 0000:09:00.0: fifo: FB_FLUSH_TIMEOUT [Jun26 09:32] nouveau 0000:09:00.0: fifo: CHSW_ERROR 00000004 [ +0.000162] nouveau 0000:09:00.0: fifo: CHSW_ERROR 00000005 [Jun26 09:46] nouveau 0000:09:00.0: disp: outp 04:0006:0f44: link training failed [ +0.107894] nouveau 0000:09:00.0: disp: outp 04:0006:0f44: link training failed but they aren't causing an obvious problem. >> >> Note that with maxwell we have yet to add EXA support to >> xf86-video-nouveau, so you're ending up with GLAMOR (and Ben and I >> disagree on whether EXA support should be added in the first place). >> There was also an issue that glamor was hitting with nouveau which >> appears to have dissipated, either due to a change in nouveau or a >> change in glamor. So you might consider upgrading to Xorg 1.18.3 (as >> glamor is part of X). I do have a serious performance issue, though: when I scroll in Firefox (default configuration), the whole system drops to ~1fps or less and, if I scroll enough (even putting the mouse over a simple page like start.fedoraproject.org and flicking the wheel up and down a few times), the entire desktop will become unusable for several seconds. I seem to have this problem under X and under Wayland. For better or for worse, forcing Firefox's layers acceleration on fixes the problem and scrolling is fast. I have no idea whether this is an X problem, a gnome-shell problem, a mesa problem, a kernel problem, or something else. _______________________________________________ dri-devel mailing list dri-devel@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx https://lists.freedesktop.org/mailman/listinfo/dri-devel
