[Bug 228624] Re: DVD writer not working since hardy upgrade

2008-07-21 Thread elc
I've compiled kernel 2.6.26 and it's working. The all_generic_ide=1
isn't needed anymore, because the kernel switches to UDMA/33 when it
detects that UDMA/66 can't be used.

The interesting part from dmesg:
[9.001603] ata2.01: ATAPI: ASUS DVD-ROM DVD-E616P  0104, E1.04, 
max UDMA/66
[9.001621] ata2.01: limited to UDMA/33 due to 40-wire cable
[9.017417] ata2.01: configured for UDMA/33

The kernel was configured by using make oldconfig of the
config-2.6.24-19-generic config and just entering through all questions.

I've attached dmesg and hdparm ouput.

The kernel from linux-image-2.6.24-21-generic_2.6.24-21.39_i386.deb doesn't 
boot.
The last lines in the console show something like this and then things lock up:
[...]
Compat vDSO mapped to e000.
Checking 'hlt' instruction... OK.

Same for me. I had to add the 'all_generic_dma=1' parameter to be able
to install 8.04 from the livecd.

[Bug 298119] Re: [ATI 7000] xrandr -o left results in garbled, slow picture

2009-01-18 Thread elc
I've performed some test with the Jaunty alpha 3 x64 livecd. I don't
have enough disk space to install it next to Intrepid, but I'll get a
new disk next week.

The default radeon acceleration method changed from 'XAA' (Intrepid) to
'EXA' (Jaunty). The Jaunty xorg logfile has been attached.

Short conclusion:
Desktop performance with radeon XAA acceleration got worse
Desktop performance with radeon EXA acceleration got better


All tests below were performed with desktop visual effects disabled and this 
simple xorg.conf:
Section "Device"
Identifier  "Configured Video Device"
either
Option  "AccelMethod" "XAA"
or
Option  "AccelMethod" "EXA"
EndSection
Section "Monitor"
Identifier  "Configured Monitor"
EndSection
Section "Screen"
Identifier  "Default Screen"
Monitor "Configured Monitor"
Device  "Configured Video Device"
SubSection "Display"
Virtual 1920 1920
EndSubSection
EndSection


To check desktop performance, I've compared how Mozilla Thunderbird feels. 
Ordered from good to bad:

Intrepid; XAA acceleration, normal rotation
Initial drawing of the window is nearly instant
Scrolling speed is good

Jaunty; XAA acceleration, normal rotation; EXA acceleration, any rotation
Initial drawing of the window takes about 1 second:
It's clearly visible in what order the Folders, Headers, 
Message and Toolbar panels are drawn;
The contents of the panels are drawn quickly
Scrolling is noticeably slower

Intrepid; EXA acceleration, any rotation
Initial drawing of the window takes about 2 seconds:
It's clearly visible in what order the Folders, Headers, 
Message and Toolbar panels are drawn;
The contents of the panels are drawn quickly
Scrolling is slow

Intrepid / Jaunty; XAA acceleration, rotation other than normal
Initial drawing of the window takes about 3 seconds:
It's clearly visible in what order the Folders, Headers, 
Message and Toolbar panels are drawn;
The contents of the panels are drawn very slowly (in left 
rotation the panels are filled from right to left)
Scrolling is practically impossible because each screen update takes 
several seconds


To get some framerate numbers, I did run the following programs:
glxgears -geometry 1000x1000
x11perf -shmput500

Configuration| glxgears | x11perf | Thunderbird 
'feel'
-+--+-+---
Intrepid, fglrx, rotation normal | 780  | 988 | good
Intrepid, radeon XAA, rotation normal| 404* | 899 | good
Intrepid, radeon XAA, rotation left  |   5  |  60 | very bad
Intrepid, radeon EXA, rotation normal| 404* |  66 | bad
Intrepid, radeon EXA, rotation left  | 256  |  65 | bad
Jaunty A3, radeon XAA, rotation normal   |  33  |  64 | medium
Jaunty A3, radeon XAA, rotation left |   1  |   7 | very bad
Jaunty A3, radeon EXA, rotation normal   |  33  | 843 | medium
Jaunty A3, radeon EXA, rotation left |  32  | 848 | medium

*) With some added options to the simple xorg.conf, glxgears is able to
produce 579 fps. The same options don't have an effect in Jaunty, but
I'll retest once it's installed on disk.

The numbers above don't show a relation with the Thunderbird 'feel'.
What benchmarks could be run to measure desktop performance?

[Bug 298119] Re: [ATI 7000] xrandr -o left results in garbled, slow picture

2008-12-20 Thread elc
Erdal solved the garbled screen issue by adding 'virtual 1400 1400' to
his xorg.conf (second post). His remaining problem is the slowness.

When I added 'virtual 1920 1920' to my xorg.conf, the left/right option
in the gui became available. That probably also happened to Erdal when
he added 'virtual 1400 1400' to his xorg.conf. Erdal can you confirm
this?

In my case the slowness occurs when rotating left, right and inverted.
Erdal only talked about slowness when rotating left so I'm not sure if
we're experiencing the same problem but I still think we are. Erdal are
you also experiencing slowness when rotating right / inverted?

2008-12-13 Thread elc
I may be having the same slowness problem.
The display is drawn quickly in normal orientation, but in left, right and 
inverted orientation, it takes about 1-2 seconds to draw the entire screen. I 
only got my display this week, so I never tried with Feisty or Gutsy.

Relevant files have been attached...

The Intrepid kernel is working fine for me without the 'all_generic_ide'
option (which was needed for Hardy). The DVD-ROM is set to UDMA/33 mode
as it should be, because of the 40-wire cable.
