[Openchrome-users] If you dare please test the Experimental branch

[Andrey Melentyev]

Just updated my driver to latest experimental branch revision. I have
VN800 Unichrome Pro IGP. Everything seems to be ok, even Xv and XvMC,
but two things:

1) when I enable EXA acceleration, X freezes at startup.
2) sometimes when I switch between virtual desktops or just scroll
something in applications, I get some artifacts appearing on the
screen. They disappear when I switch dekstops again. I can reproduce
this if I open X.org log in Vim in Gnome Terminal and then hold "PgDn"
for a few seconds. Text in terminal is quickly scrolled and after a
few seconds screen is corrupted.

The good thing is that "EnableAGPDMA" "false" is not needed to use X
anymore. Unfortunately, AFAIK my xorg-server is not compiled against
libpciaccess too.

Here's a part of my xorg.conf:

Section "Device"

    Identifier	"VIA Unichrome Pro"
    Driver			"openchrome"

#		Option	"EnableAGPDMA" "false"
#		Option	"AccelMethod"			"EXA"
#		Option	"ExaScratchSize"	"8192"
#		Option	"MaxDRIMem"				"16384"
#		Option	"MigrationHeuristic"	"greedy"

		Option	"ActiveDevice"		"LCD"
#		Option	"NoXVDMA"					"true"
		Option	"VBEModes"				"true"
		Option	"VBESaveRestore"	"true"
		Option	"DisableIRQ"			"true"
		BusID		"PCI:1:0:0"

EndSection


My xorg.log is attached.
