When running opengl programs like glxgears or bzflag, performance is very poor and after some seconds the whole system locks hard. At that time the only thing that works is mousemovements on the screen, but nothing else. Even the keyboard is completely dead: <Ctrl><Alt><Back> and <Ctrl><Alt><Fn> do not work and the keyleds are not changeable (=> kernel dead?). xfree-4.3.0-r3 xfree-drm-4.3.0-r6 Strange: Using 'Option "UseCCEFor2D" "True"' in /etc/X11/XF86Config made glxgears run 4 times faster than normal and bzflag crash after twice the normal time. Still, the crash is inevitable. Some setup information: dmesg: Linux version 2.4.22_ds01 (root@phoenix) (gcc version 3.2.3 20030422 (Gentoo Lin ux 1.4 3.2.3-r2, propolice)) #3 Fri Nov 7 22:04:06 CET 2003 cat /proc/pci: Bus 1, device 0, function 0: VGA compatible controller: ATI Technologies Inc Rage 128 PF/PRO AGP 4x TMDS (rev 0).

The complete system is dead, even the kernel gives up service. The system can't even spit out a failure message into the logs. Expected Results: opengl programs should run like a charm! Even if not (it's not a strong gpu), the keyboard should at least react to input ;-( Portage 2.0.49-r15 (default-x86-1.4, gcc-3.2.3, glibc-2.3.2-r3, 2.4.22_ds01) ================================================================= System uname: 2.4.22_ds01 i586 AMD-K6(tm)-III Processor Gentoo Base System version 1.4.3.10p1 ACCEPT_KEYWORDS="x86" AUTOCLEAN="yes" CFLAGS="-march=k6-3 -O2 -fno-branch-count-reg -pipe" CHOST="i586-pc-linux-gnu" COMPILER="gcc3" CONFIG_PROTECT="/etc /var/qmail/control /usr/share/config /usr/kde/2/share/confi g /usr/kde/3/share/config /usr/X11R6/lib/X11/xkb /usr/share/texmf/tex/generic/co nfig/ /usr/share/texmf/tex/platex/config/" CONFIG_PROTECT_MASK="/etc/gconf /etc/env.d" CXXFLAGS="-march=k6-3 -O2 -fno-branch-count-reg -pipe" DISTDIR="/usr/portage/distfiles" FEATURES="sandbox ccache autoaddcvs" GENTOO_MIRRORS="ftp://ftp.uni-erlangen.de/pub/mirrors/gentoo http://212.219.56.1 46/sites/www.ibiblio.org/gentoo/ http://ftp.uni-erlangen.de/pub/mirrors/gentoo h ttp://mirrors.sec.informatik.tu-darmstadt.de/gentoo ftp://ftp.tu-clausthal.de/pu b/linux/gentoo/" MAKEOPTS="-j2" PKGDIR="/usr/portage/packages" PORTAGE_TMPDIR="/var/tmp" PORTDIR="/usr/portage" PORTDIR_OVERLAY="" SYNC="rsync://rsync.europe.gentoo.org/gentoo-portage" USE="berkdb -3dfx 3dnow aalib -acl acpi -afs alsa apache2 -apm -arts avi -bonobo cdr cjk clamav crypt cscope cups curl dga dillo directfb -doc dvb -dvd -emacs e ncode esd -evo fbcon flash foomaticdb -gb gd gdbm ggi gif -gnome -gphoto2 gpm -g ps gtk gtk2 -gtkhtml guile -imap imlib java jikes -joystick jpeg -kde lcms -ldap -leim libg++ -libgda libwww -lirc mad -maildir -matrox mbox mikmod mmx motif mo zilla moznomail moznoirc moznocompose mozsvg mpeg mpi -mule nas ncurses nls oav odbc offensive oggvorbis opengl -oss pam -pcmcia pda pdflib perl pic plotutils p ng postgres ppds prelink python qt quicktime rage128 readline -samba sasl -scann er sdl skey slang -slp -snmp spell -sse ssl svga tcltk tcpd tetex threads tiff t ruetype usb -voodoo3 wmf X X509 Xaw3d xface -xinerama xml2 xmms xosd xv zlib x86 "

Dirk, has this problem shown up in xorg-x11 as well?
Please reopen if you add info.
Sorry for the late reply: I can't check whether the bug remains with xorg-x11, because I switched to a new system.
