[was solved...]ATI + KMS issues, kernel 2.6.31.4 performance

Once again I decided to update my rock solid mediacenter pc running xbmc.

And as always... Sh yikes t happened.

My glxgears score went from 1400fps to near 300fps, 3d games run once again at 1fps, and now even xbmc it's slow as hell, less then 15fps, a lot of frame dropping on SD video (but cpu usage is normal (10%))

Disabled KMS with nomodeset... xbmc stoped working (1fps) glxgears went to 1400fps again but 3d games still don't work (with 2.6.31.3 and older xf86-video-ati drivers "nomodeset" solved the problem)

Direct rendering IS ENABLED (glxinfo), tried with AccelMethod EXA, same thing. Nothing relevant in Xorg.0.log...

ATI radeon 9250se, p4 3.0ghzHT. 1gb ram.

Once again my family said that I f%cked up the mediacenter because I don't wan't them to watch movies.... oops

Never had a single positive experience with KMS (ati or intel) but now even disabling it doesn't do anything....

Need backup big_smile

Using testing repo updated

Re: [was solved...]ATI + KMS issues, kernel 2.6.31.4 performance

With testing enabled, you also need xf86-video-ati 6.13 to pass there too, along with Xorg server 1.7. You must read the arch-dev mailing list.

I have a minimal xorg.conf to add my modeline to this lcd (has an interesting resolution). Without xorg.conf everything is the same. Tried different accelmethods

Re: [was solved...]ATI + KMS issues, kernel 2.6.31.4 performance

Maybe the best solution is to replace my graphics card with a good old nvidia geforce4 and recover my performance.
NEVER had a issue with nvidia drivers

Re: [was solved...]ATI + KMS issues, kernel 2.6.31.4 performance

I had this problem too with an ATI Technologies Inc Radeon Mobility X1400.  Works fine with 2.6.30 but was too slow to use with 2.6.31.3.  I ended up downgrading.

Re: [was solved...]ATI + KMS issues, kernel 2.6.31.4 performance

What does glxinfo show? Please post the upper part where it shows if MESA software rasterizer or Ati Projekt one is used. The new git shot based driver gives a decent 3D speed on my laptop. Also remember glxgears is no benchmark and not really to compare stuff. Better use gtkperf or something like that.

Also just to clarify, when I said too slow to use, I meant too slow to use.  I didn't even try glxgears, if I had firefox open then it would take 5-10 seconds to open an xterm.  Compared to a split second on 2.6.30.  I have not tried 2.6.31.4 yet, I was hoping to find out whether anything had changed before I did so.

Re: [was solved...]ATI + KMS issues, kernel 2.6.31.4 performance

Check for OpenGL vendor string in glxinfo. When it falls back to MESA software rasterizer sonething went wrong. When it says DRI xxx Project you get plain upstream performance possible with mesa 7.6 release and the current ati ddx git shot.

Re: [was solved...]ATI + KMS issues, kernel 2.6.31.4 performance

KMS is the culprit. Disable it appending "nomodeset" (without the inverted commas) to grub line. Better wait for 2.6.32 with shiny new drm modules.

Re: [was solved...]ATI + KMS issues, kernel 2.6.31.4 performance

for what it's worth, i was able to pin down performance bottlenecks on using the kde4-window-decorator .. window decorator with compiz. it's not the whole story obviously, but it was obviously causing very annoying 'freeze ups' where even the mouse cursor would become unresponsive for a second or two ... using emerald free'd up ALOT of cpu time here and stopped these problems.

(i'm mentioning it as it may not be what you would think of first)

Doing that makes my system not using DRI2 and DRI(1). That makes it even worse! opengl software works at almost 3fps. glxgears goes back to 1400fps... but that doesn't mean nothing.

Is there a way to force X to use DRI (1) and NOT dri2 with KMS enabled? Or disable KMS but enable dri again just like in 2.6.31.1...

Have you tried some of the options I have here:
http://bbs.archlinux.org/viewtopic.php? … 04#p637104

As I have no problems with KMS + DRI2, but I haven't tried without those options and I have a newer card.

And I think the option in xorg.conf to disable DRI2 is:

Option "DRI2" "false"

in ServerFlags section probably.

Re: [was solved...]ATI + KMS issues, kernel 2.6.31.4 performance

That dri2 option doesn't exist... Tried every xorg setting I could do, even without Xorg, without KMS... both... still nothing. I'm getting disapointed with this driver. Never had problems before.

edit: downgrading to extra xf86-video-ati driver version brokes X...

edit2: adding radeon to mkinitcpio makes Udev loading taking forever and causes a lot of debug messages with errors during kernel boot.

"man xorg.conf" says otherwise, that's where I got it from smile

       Option "DRI2" "boolean"
              enable or disable DRI2. DRI2 is disabled by default.

Well, does

 Disable  "dri2"

in module section disable it?

Yes it does disable some "kind of dri2" -> X freezes without no picture and I have to hard reset my pc, start at console mode and remove "disable dri2" before I can get any image, with or without kms.
If i add "option DRI "false"" dri2 still loads... if I disable kms I get direct rendering: yes @ glxinfo but no DRI @ mesa.
So... nop, not the solution big_smile I'm so sad This is just terrible, a mediacenter with 4 images per second and I have my family here complaining that I f&cked everything!

Do what the wiki says in order to disable KMS.

First thing I did. Worked before updating my system with kernel 2.6.31.4 (had 2.6.31.3 with the ati driver in extra repo). Now, everything is broken

Re: [was solved...]ATI + KMS issues, kernel 2.6.31.4 performance

So weird ...

Upgrade to [testing] and install mesa 7.6 and see what happens.

To revert back to your system, if you don't want to have [testing]'s packages, disable it and run "pacman -Syyuu" afterwards (two "u" )
