[Bug 426582] Re: (32MB) certain windows drawn garbled when XAA is used
I'm not sure where to look for the video ram size. I didn't find anything in the Xorg log file.
lspci -v reports:
01:00.0 VGA compatible controller: ATI Technologies Inc Radeon Mobility M7 LW [Radeon Mobility 7500]
Subsystem: Compaq Computer Corporation Device 00b7
Flags: bus master, stepping, 66MHz, medium devsel, latency 66, IRQ 11
Memory at 48000000 (32-bit, prefetchable) [size=128M]
I/O ports at 3000 [size=256]
Memory at 40400000 (32-bit, non-prefetchable) [size=64K]
[virtual] Expansion ROM at 40420000 [disabled] [size=128K]
Capabilities: <access denied>
Kernel modules: radeon, radeonfb
My guess: 128M (which wouldn't fit the 32 MB of less theory)
Initial situation:
- Laptop, Compac Evo 610c, Karmic 32 bit
- The well-known garbled output in the gnome-notifier and gnome-system-monitor with compiz off (my normal setting).
- No problems with compiz turned on.
- Problem still present with the current xorg-edgers drivers.
Current work-around:
Automatically generated xorg.conf with a single change:
Option "RenderAccel" "off"
Test done so far:
- EXA: works but is visibly slower
- KMS: works, but is visibly slower, leaves artifacts on the screen when objects are moved (which will be cleaned up eventually)
