What really pisses me off when I suggest using the non-free (aka working) drivers is that I bought cards and laptops which were supported by Linux when I bought them.

In the quest for 3D hardware accelerated wiggly whatnots to attract gamers, support for normal users who just want a reasonable X experience has gone away. > The messages in /var/log/messages are: > > Jul 15 16:15:50 beam kernel: ------------[ cut here ]------------ > Jul 15 16:15:50 beam kernel: WARNING: at > drivers/gpu/drm/radeon/radeon_fence.c:159 radeon_fence_signaled+0x56/0x83 [radeon]() > Jul 15 16:15:50 beam kernel: Hardware name: X5DA8 > Jul 15 16:15:50 beam kernel: Querying an unemited fence : e73b9320 ! > Jul 15 16:15:50 beam kernel: Modules linked in: fuse nfsd lockd nfs_acl > auth_rpcgss exportfs autofs4 sunrpc p4_clockmod ipv6 dm_multipath uinput ppdev > parport_pc parport snd_intel8x0 snd_ac97_codec ac97_bus snd_seq snd_seq_device > snd_pcm e1000 iTCO_wdt iTCO_vendor_support intel_rng i2c_i801 snd_timer snd > soundcore snd_page_alloc raid1 aic79xx sata_mv scsi_transport_spi usb_storage > radeon ttm drm_kms_helper drm i2c_algo_bit i2c_core [last unloaded: microcode] > Jul 15 16:15:50 beam kernel: Pid: 2860, comm: X Tainted: G W > 2.6.32.16-141.fc12.i686.PAE #1 > Jul 15 16:15:50 beam kernel: Call Trace: > Jul 15 16:15:50 beam kernel: [<c0441535>] warn_slowpath_common+0x6a/0x81 > Jul 15 16:15:50 beam kernel: [<f7fa2a1f>] ? radeon_fence_signaled+0x56/0x83 [radeon] > Jul 15 16:15:50 beam kernel: [<c044158a>] warn_slowpath_fmt+0x29/0x2c > Jul 15 16:15:50 beam kernel: [<f7fa2a1f>] radeon_fence_signaled+0x56/0x83 [radeon] > Jul 15 16:15:50 beam kernel: [<f7fa2a8a>] radeon_fence_wait+0x3e/0x2aa [radeon] > Jul 15 16:15:50 beam kernel: [<f7fa2e11>] ? radeon_fence_create+0x21/0xdc [radeon] > Jul 15 16:15:50 beam kernel: [<f7fb221c>] radeon_ib_get+0xf4/0x19e [radeon] > Jul 15 16:15:50 beam kernel: [<f7fb30a6>] radeon_cs_ioctl+0x80/0x17e [radeon] > Jul 15 16:15:50 beam kernel: [<f7e7ca00>] drm_ioctl+0x251/0x2fd [drm] > Jul 15 16:15:50 beam kernel: [<f7fb3026>] ? radeon_cs_ioctl+0x0/0x17e [radeon] > Jul 15 16:15:50 beam kernel: [<c05c355c>] ? prio_tree_remove+0xab/0xb7 > Jul 15 16:15:50 beam kernel: [<c04b9fb5>] ? vma_prio_tree_remove+0x3a/0xb5 > Jul 15 16:15:50 beam kernel: [<f7e7c7af>] ? drm_ioctl+0x0/0x2fd [drm] > Jul 15 16:15:50 beam kernel: [<c04eed92>] vfs_ioctl+0x1d/0x76 > Jul 15 16:15:50 beam kernel: [<c04ef32c>] do_vfs_ioctl+0x493/0x4d1 > Jul 15 16:15:50 beam kernel: [<f7ed054e>] ? ttm_bo_unref+0x2a/0x36 [ttm] > Jul 15 16:15:50 beam kernel: [<c0488235>] ? audit_syscall_entry+0x116/0x138 > Jul 15 16:15:50 beam kernel: [<c04ef3b0>] sys_ioctl+0x46/0x66 > Jul 15 16:15:50 beam kernel: [<c040917c>] syscall_call+0x7/0xb > Jul 15 16:15:50 beam kernel: ---[ end trace 16db0329adff4419 ]--- > Jul 15 16:16:44 beam abrt: Kerneloops: Reported 1 kernel oopses to Abrt > Jul 15 16:16:44 beam abrtd: Directory 'kerneloops-1279207004-1' creation detected > Jul 15 16:16:44 beam abrtd: Getting local universal unique identification > Jul 15 16:16:44 beam abrtd: Crash is in database already (dup of > /var/cache/abrt/kerneloops-1279205204-1) > > I'm going back to: 2.6.32.14-127.fc12.i686.PAE > > Cheers > > > Terry -- Bill Davidsen <davidsen@xxxxxxx> "We have more to fear from the bungling of the incompetent than from the machinations of the wicked." - from Slashdot -- users mailing list users@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx To unsubscribe or change subscription options: https://admin.fedoraproject.org/mailman/listinfo/users Guidelines: http://fedoraproject.org/wiki/Mailing_list_guidelines
