The deadlock was caused by debugging code inserted by myself (sending output with printf() to an xterm while holding the lock, if I understand it right). So it seems to work now. Textures do not work (do they work at all without HAL lib from Matrox? Found some comments in the mga driver which suggest they are not (yet) supported). According to the frame-rate reported by glxgears the performance burst is not too amazing, about factor 4 for full-screen resolution (compared to software shading). Single-side filled triangle are deadly slow. Smooth shading is deadly slow. Two-side filled triangle work quite nice. When I find the time I compare the stuff with a G400 AGP card. The changed files (kernel modules and XFree86 4.1.0 stuff) can be found at (in case somebody is interested) http://www.instmath.rwth-aachen.de:8000/linux/G450-PCI or via anonymous cvs at cvs -d :pserver:[EMAIL PROTECTED]:/usr/local/cvs/linux login User: cvs Password: ftape cvs -d :pserver:[EMAIL PROTECTED]:/usr/local/cvs/linux co G450-PCI If somebody is interested. I'll post patches to the relevant maintainers when I find the time. I was using the latest mga driver from the XFree86 cvs tree. The one distributed with 4.1.0 does not restore the text-mode on the second head. Maybe other PCI cards could work the same way. The case was particularly easy with the G450 because the only difference between APG/non-AGP mode is set/don't_set a particular bit in the DMA control registers of the G450.
