Description Leonardo Chiquitto 2009-02-27 14:10:05 UTC
After latest Factory update the Intel video driver is not working with my video card. When trying to fall back to vesa, I found that it works, but the X process now uses 100% of one CPU.

Strace shows X looping in the following block:

18290 setitimer(ITIMER_REAL, {it_interval={0, 20000}, it_value={0, 20000}}, NULL) = 0
18290 setitimer(ITIMER_REAL, {it_interval={0, 0}, it_value={0, 0}}, NULL) = 0
18290 clock_gettime(CLOCK_MONOTONIC, {7056, 902072153}) = 0
18290 select(256, [1 3 4 5 7 8 13 14 15 16 17 18 19 20 21 22 23 24 25 26 27 28 29 30 31 32 33 34 35 36], NULL, NULL, {0, 0}) = 0 (Timeout)
18290 clock_gettime(CLOCK_MONOTONIC, {7056, 902128304}) = 0
18290 setitimer(ITIMER_REAL, {it_interval={0, 20000}, it_value={0, 20000}}, NULL) = 0

I upgraded to the latest X11:/XOrg/openSUSE_Factory/ packages to see if some fix was already available, but not luck yet:

2.6.29-rc5-1-default #1 SMP 2009-02-16 17:18:44 +0100 x86_64 x86_64 x86_64 GNU/Linux

I downgraded the Xorg packages from X11:/XOrg/openSUSE_Factory/ to X11:/XOrg/openSUSE_11.1 and I'm now able to use the Intel driver again. Problem is: Xorg still uses 100% of one CPU. I'm correcting the subject.
