I've seen a bunch of reports of this recently. It's not any issue with nouveau kernel component itself, I think it's an Xorg issue. Try using a redirecting compositor. Or not using one. Or using modesetting ddx. Or using nouveau ddx. The lack of acceleration on TU* might also be playing into this.

Offloading is usually meant as "perform rendering on secondary GPU, display on primary GPU". This is what something like DRI_PRIME controls (i.e. which GPU performs rendering for a particular application). You want the inverse -- you want your primary GPU to generate images to be displayed on a secondary GPUs outputs. In Xorg this is referred to as "reverse PRIME".</pre> </div> <hr> You are receiving this mail because: <ul> <li>You are the assignee for the bug.</li> </ul> </body> </html>
