Hi, intel driver 2.7.0 (and the DRM counter part) is broken for old intel chipsets. On my i855GM, I can't even have Xv working correctly. X crashes as soon as I start playing a video. Usually, I have to disable mode setting by passing i915.modeset=0 as an argument to the kernel before booting. Updating manually (waiting for the official updates) to linux-2.6.30, libdrm-2.4.11 and the latest intel-2.7.99.901 (http://cgit.freedesktop.org/xorg/driver/xf86-video-intel) solved all my issues. The desktop even feels a bit snappier. -Ilyes On Wed, Jun 24, 2009 at 12:59 AM, Clemens Eisserer<linuxhippy@xxxxxxxxx> wrote: > Rawhide deployed a xorg-update, while various drivers haven't been > updated so there's a version mismatch. > I use the vesa driver for now (also quite unstable, due to what seem > to be pixman bugs), however an updated intel-driver should be out soon > (hopefully). > > - Clemens > > 2009/6/23 Paul <paul@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx>: >> Hi, >> >> Following the last official rawhide update (21st was it?), my desktop >> has been hosed. >> >> I've updated to the latest xorg-server and intel drivers (plus a few >> others) as well as gdm and anything else I can think off.
