--- Comment #12 from Jesús Guerrero <[email protected]> 2009-12-15 09:12:47 PST --- Hello, I've finally recompiled half of my system libs as 32 bits so I have now something close to a true multilib system (well, the involved components). I have a strange problem that makes DRM only work as root, don't ask me why, I have double checked groups, permissions, xorg.conf and I've even gone as far as chmoding /dev/dri and everything under as 777 (I know it's not persistent). Nonetheless, even after this, glxinfo reports drm on for root and off for everybody else. But that's another story... Just for the sake of digging a bit more about the issue at hand I made a local copy of my nwn directory and ran it as root under controlled conditions. It still leaks a lot of ram. You are right in one thing: after having all the 32 bits pieces in place the memory leak is in nwmain, instead of /usr/bin/X, which at least eradicates the need to restart X each time I have to free up the ram leak. So, now I ask if anyone can answer: why oh why have I been several years using this game with fglrx without any perceptible problem? It hasn't been updated in a long time, since the 1.69 version of the client, so it's really impossible that the bug has been introduced by a recent update of the binary client. I really can't be sure where the problem lies right now so unless you have some ideas feel free to resolve this as invalid or whatever fits best. If I ever find something new I'll report back, but due to the closed nature of this toy and my complete lack of understanding about the drm/mesa internals, that's going to be difficult. Nonetheless, thanks for all the assistance, it's much appreciated :) -- Configure bugmail: http://bugs.freedesktop.org/userprefs.cgi?tab=email ------- You are receiving this mail because: ------- You are the assignee for the bug. ------------------------------------------------------------------------------ This SF.Net email is sponsored by the Verizon Developer Community Take advantage of Verizon's best-in-class app development support A streamlined, 14 day to market process makes app distribution fast and easy Join now and get one step closer to millions of Verizon customers http://p.sf.net/sfu/verizon-dev2dev -- _______________________________________________ Dri-devel mailing list [email protected] https://lists.sourceforge.net/lists/listinfo/dri-devel
