i810 regression?

[Date Prev][Date Next][Thread Prev][Thread Next][Date Index][Thread Index]

 



Ever since upgrading to SuSE 9.1, I have been having problems with Xv which appear from the logs to be memory allocation problems. Versions:
XFree86 version: 4.3.99.902 (4.4.0 RC 2)
Kernel: 2.6.4-54.5
Hw: Intel i815e (on motherboard).
Video has worked well for me since fairly early in XFree86 4.1x, including Xv. But since this "upgrade", I have had problems with dvd (blank blue screen in xine) and error messages in XFree86.0.log:


(II) I810(0): [agp] dcacheHandle : 0x0
(II) I810(0): [agp] GART: no dcache memory found
...
(WW) I810(0): xf86AllocateGARTMemory: allocation of 1024 pages failed
   (Cannot allocate memory)
(II) I810(0): No physical memory available for 4194304 bytes of DCACHE

Maybe I never had dcache memory before, but I wasn't looking at logs then because everything was working well. I don't know whether my problem is caused by:
1. new kernel (possibly an agpgart problem)
2. New XFree86 version
3. Improper config file settings. The config file was created by a SuSE tool called sax2. In the past, I was told (by an Intel engineer in a predecessor to this mailing list) to use the option:
VideoRam 16384
which sax2 did not include. I have tried including this myself using the syntax:
Option "VideoRam" 16384
in the "Device" section, but it doesn't seem to have fixed it.
Any suggestions would be appreciated.
