What area of the screen isn't being updated? The screenshots don't make it very clear. Also, have you tried other versions of the drivers? Could you let me know which ones update the screen properly? (with xorg-server-1.4.2) Thanks a lot It seems to me that the whole display is not updated, some action triggers the display update (moving around a window) and some action doesn't. With these packages I ran into the screenupdate problem (xorg-server-1.4.2): =x11-drivers/xf86-video-i810-2.4.1 =x11-drivers/xf86-video-i810-2.4.1-r1 =x11-drivers/xf86-video-i810-2.4.2 =x11-drivers/xf86-video-i810-2.4.2-r1 I'm currently using =x11-drivers/xf86-video-i810-2.3.2 updating the xorg-server to 1.5.0 solved the problem with =x11-drivers/xf86-video-i810-2.4.2-r1 display update. I haven't tested the drivers below 2.4.2-r1 yet these are the packages portage updated: x11-proto/inputproto-1.4.4 x11-libs/libXau-1.0.4 x11-libs/libpciaccess-0.10.3 x11-proto/dri2proto-1.1 x11-libs/libdrm-2.3.1 x11-libs/libX11-1.1.5 media-libs/mesa-7.1 x11-base/xorg-server-1.5.0 and i had to recompile the i810 driver x11-drivers/xf86-video-i810-2.4.2-r1 I'm sorry to disappoint you, but the upgrade to xorg-server-1.5.0 didn't solve the problem for me, but it did reduce some effects. I decided to create a video while the system was compiling several packages: http://datadump.moeeeep.com/gentoo-i810bug/display_errors.avi (In reply to comment #7) > I'm sorry to disappoint you, but the upgrade to xorg-server-1.5.0 didn't solve > the problem for me, but it did reduce some effects. > > I decided to create a video while the system was compiling several packages: > http://datadump.moeeeep.com/gentoo-i810bug/display_errors.avi > I'm getting this update screen problem using EXA and MigrationHeuristic "greedy" or "always" in xorg.conf on the 2.4.x drivers, but makes everything "faster". with XAA I don't get flickr and is very fast, without any accelmethod or only exa, the pages scrolling is slow. Alright, well I think this falls into the "non-trivial bugs" category. Please do the following : 1) read http://intellinuxgraphics.org/how_to_report_bug.html 2) open a bug over at http://bugs.freedesktop.org 3) add "remi@gentoo.org" as a CC on that bug Intel guys should be able to figure this out better than me.

"always" is a default with EXA and that looks good on this machine I also opened a bug report@freedesktop: https://bugs.freedesktop.org/show_bug.cgi?id=17512 Alright, thanks a lot for taking the time. Let's track the bug upstream, shall we? Cheers I think this a duplicate of http://bugs.gentoo.org/show_bug.cgi?id=238041 which contains a workaround. |
