you probably dont have KMS enabled... check the wiki on how to enable it. (and test if its enabled)
Alright, I followed the description as stated in the wiki (method 1).
However, I get:
$ sudo cat /sys/module/i915/parameters/modeset
-1Idea why that could be?
cant help you, i dont even have that file
]]>I've been wondering about kms, and which cards it actually works with. I have an intel i810 and would like to try it if there's any chance that it works. Has someone heard that it's possible?
Works for me. Haven't seen any problem for a long time.

do you have a 1024x768 screen? otherwise it should be your native display's resolution.
i get a 1280x800 tty screen
Yeah, I do have a 1024*768 screen. Do I have a way to check what resolution is being used in TTY?

]]>I have KMS activated. For the first time, I can run KWin effects in KDE4 at a reasonable speed; X and KDE4 start at an impressive speed.
However, I cannot switch back to X from; when I switch to TTY and then go back to X, nothing happens, the screen stays black.

EDIT: I have just try suspend (to RAM), and both suspending and waking up from suspend are fast. If during the next 5 minutes my system does not freeze, I am happy.
My system: Intel 945GM
EDIT2: My system didn't freeze; makes me even more happy. Switching back and fro between X and TTY still not working tho'. Ah, if I go from X to TTY and then actually restart X, X will work fine again.
]]>and that means:
- KMS enabled
- compiz enabled
- direct rendering
everything works ok. ive got no transparency bug, can suspend and resume succesfully.
ive started a thread on how to patch mesa and fix the transparency bug. its here
]]>i'm also seeing freezes with and without KMS enabled. They can be easily triggered by running xscreensaver-demo and browsing through the available screensavers. it's not a particular screensaver that makes X crash. it just happens after some time ...

You should open a bug report on bugs.freedesktop.org as the intel developers have closed a number of bugs related to freezes which are probably fixed and which noone has commented on recently. They actually sent a message to the mailing list demanding that users who still see freezes report them.
]]>Man, you guys are making want to enable the testing repo again...
EDIT: well, it WORKS, but I've still got the cracked-out transparency issues that happened when I tried KMS before (things go white instead of just slightly transparent, for example).
Arch64, GM945, no xorg.
managed to finally patch mesa. running compiz with direct rendering and the patch applied fixes the transparency bug. /me is happy
