Imo 'less visible' and gpu hang don't go well together, the 3 second freeze plus screen flicker at least ensure that users report bugs. And I have no idea whether resetting the entire gpu or just the render portion has a greater chance of survival. So I'm not sure whether working on this has much benefit ... at least opposed to working on the bugs ;-) -Daniel -- Daniel Vetter Mail: daniel at ffwll.ch Mobile: +41 (0)79 365 57 48
