openSUSE 13.2 Kernel 3.16.7-45.1 broke 3D acceleration / drm
Last modified: 2016-10-29 20:08:50 UTC
Created attachment 699945 [details] glxinfo while running the different kernels, plus lspci I can't get 3D acceleration with the following kernels: - kernel-default-3.16.7-45.1 - kernel-desktop-3.16.7-45.1 The old kernel-default-3.16.7-42.1 was working fine and I can successfully workaround the bug by booting kernel-default-3.16.7-42.1 agai (sadly that's no good choice because of the critical security fixes in 3.16.7-42.1). Interestingly kernel-vanilla-3.16.7-45.1 is working too. So it appears, that some openSUSE patches in 3.16.7-45.1 break 3D acceleration. My PC is having an onboard "Radeon HD 4200" card, but I'm using an dedicated "Radeon HD 6450". Sadly I couldn't diff-out the critical part in the changes between 3.16.7-42.1 and 3.16.7-45.1. But maybe someone else has a clue!? I attached lspci output. And I also attached glxinfo output while running the different kernels. In that files you can clearly see an "libGL error" and kernel-default-3.16.7-45.1 only offering "Gallium 0.4 on llvmpipe" (which means software-rendering - as far as I know) instead of "Gallium 0.4 on AMD CAICOS".
Same problem here. Possibly related to https://bugzilla.opensuse.org/show_bug.cgi?id=1007035 ?
Problem solved on my machine after updating to kernel 3.16.7-48-default
