Description Forgotten User tAfYx3p_c_ 2008-08-03 17:48:19 UTC

Hardware: Lenovo Thinkpad T61
00:02.0 VGA compatible controller: Intel Corporation Mobile GM965/GL960 Integrated Graphics Controller (rev 0c)

Both Openarena and Nexuiz became barely usable after 10.3 -> 11.0 upgrade, they consume nearly 100% all the time, even if I turn off all possible features.
DRI is enabled in xorg.conf, I tried applying all tweaks I found (including changing AccelMethod, setting MigrationHeuristic to "gready" etc. etc.
No changes at all.

Installing 11.0 updates doesn't change anything.
Updating to Factory makes it 2x _slower_ (which is probably another issue, but still worth to mention).

I can see there is a total mess in i965 drivers (upstream) with patches being applied in random order, but I couldn't find any patches that would fix the issue.

openSuse 10.3 worked like a charm, please make it work again.
If you need any info, let me know.

Option "AccelMethod" "XAA" should really help. Otherwise use the RPMs in Bug #411183.

  "Updating to 2.6.26 kernel from Factory aka 11.1-alpha1 helps."
