AMD Pushes Out New R600/700 3D Code

you should use site like pastebin, and post here only link.

Good to know, thanks.

Xorg.0.log is to big to put it here ...

If you pastebin an X log we can take a look. First thing to check is Option "DRI" in the Device section; radeonhd needs that while radeon does not.

I have DRI option. Xorg.0.log is to big to put it here ...

Why do you want to use radeonhd? Use radeon if it doesn't have this problem. Radeonhd should die after adding audio over hdmi support to radeon imho.

Actually they might end up both dying and getting replaced by a lean and mean driver that taps into Gallium and KMS+memory manager for about everything.

I was not aware of that. I thought the other way around ... Thank You for solving my dilemma ...

update: Today's upgrade to radeonhd-rewrite solved it ...!
update: But only in 2.6.30. In 2.6.28-12 (with added module radeon) the problem persists ...)

ASUS AH3650 a.k.a. ATI Radeon HD 3650 512M :

if I use radeonhd driver scrolling in Firefox is painfully slow, line by line with redraw every time.

I'm up to date to tormod and sarvatt ppa's ... I've tried with 2.6.30-rc{6,7} but no help ...

It doesn't happen with radeon driver.

any help?

When we can expect some breakthrough in 2D and 3D for this (R635) engine ...? compiz ... ?

None of these xorg.conf changes work for me, except the accelmethod none which slowed window dragging and mousewheel scrolling to annoying levels.

I thought I did the git clone...git pull...and git checkout stuff but I must not have. I know this does not support the 780g (hd3200) yet with 3d but I thought I'd try it out.

So far 2D acceleration seems to be much better than previous ati or radeonhd.

When I cd into mesa and do git branch, I see master and then have an asterisk in front of radeon-rewrite. What do I need to play along? In meantime I'll try to git checkout the r6xxx ones.

Update: I managed to get RadeonHD working with the drm. I totally forgot that RadeonHD needs Option "DRI" "on" in the xorg.conf... With RadeonHD and Option "AccelMethod" "None" in the xorg.conf the X server doesn't lock up anymore.

The hello program still doesn't look how it's intended to be though, still a lot of transparency.
