<pre>I compiled the driver from git, with
./autogen.sh --enable-debug=full --prefix=/usr
make
make install
The X server picks it up, but fails initialization with
to_sna:499 assertion 'sna->scrn == scrn' failed
Full log:
<a href="https://almesberger.net/paste/Xorg.0.log-Fae9oiPh.txt">https://almesberger.net/paste/Xorg.0.log-Fae9oiPh.txt</a>
Sadly, when trying to return to the configuration that worked before, I now
still get the problems I had initially. So this means that, either
1) that appearance of the problem is affected by other variables (and may not
have anything to do with TearFree)
2) make uninstall (of xserver-xorg-video-intel) left something behind,
3) apt-get removing and then re-installing the xserver-xorg-video-intel package
caused some change
3) I introduced a change when editing xorg.conf back and forth for testing the
driver compiled from git
Regarding 3), I checked in the log that TearFree is always disable. Regarding
1), I tried to repeat the sequence of configurations that led to the successful
run, in particular the configuration that disabled TearFree only in one case,
followed by the correct one, but that didn't help.</pre>
