I tried running other GL apps and it doesn't happen there. The DMAR and DRHD lines appear to be related to my ASUS P6T Deluxe's broken BIOS. Even the latest version of this BIOS is unable to handle the Core i7's VT-d feature correctly. On boot-up, the kernel complains very loudly about my broken BIOS and the incorrect functioning of the chipset IOMMU; when I disable VT-d, all of this complaining goes away, as do these DMAR / DRHD faults. Unfortunately, when disabling VT-d, I still have the memory leak. -- 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
