[Bug 428900] Re: Opengl is unstable with cairo-dock drmWaitVBlank returned -1

 

Does 
do_wait: drmWaitVBlank returned -1, IRQs don't seem to be working correctly.
show up on STDERR when the problem occurs (the background changes) or before?

The warning comes from mesa, in
http://cgit.freedesktop.org/mesa/mesa/tree/src/mesa/drivers/dri/common/vblank.c
(in do_wait() around line 260). drmWaitVBlank() is in
http://cgit.freedesktop.org/mesa/drm/tree/libdrm/xf86drm.c .

Bug description:
Binary package hint: xserver-xorg-video-intel

I have been testing cairo-dock for quite a while now and the opengl as always been unstable for me.
 When i was testing Jaunty, in alpha 6 i managed to get a full working dock in opengl mode for 2 days since then it never worked fully again.
I am back in Karmic to test the drivers and hopefully fix this unstable opengl.

I am using xorg edgers and i have noticed a great amelioration but OPengl version failed because after some use the background turn to white.

I think it s related to this debug 

 do_wait: drmWaitVBlank returned -1, IRQs don't seem to be working correctly.

I am attaching a video of the problem..
