I did just that :-) Sorry if I wasn't clear enough on this. Actually what I did
was starting Metro Last Light and catting over ssh multiple times from my
laptop (Metro doesn't allow alt-tab). The values never changed at all.

I chose Metro, because it's the most graphically challenging piece of software
I have - and should therefore certainly cause a change of values. glxgears
didn't cause a change as well, but I thought that might be because it's too
simple.

Today, to verify, I also tried it with Half Life 2. Same result. (But MSAA
works now with the libdrm patch, thanks Marek !)

All of the above still with the "ASIC_ProfilingInfo v3.1" as I got a NULL
pointer dereference with yesterday's drm-next-3.17-rebased-on-fixes kernel.

I guess the new kernel to use is "standard" 3.17-wip, as it now contains all
the Hawaii stuff ?


I'm also ok with tracking the remaining issues in separate bugs - do I need to
close this bug ? (I'd wait till the xf86-video-ati patch is applied).
Any requests on which issues should get their own bugs now ? Turning off HDMI-0
and Glyphs come to mind ?

Oh and I had a typo in my last comment - of course I updated bug #74250. Is
that maybe related to my never changing power states ?
