emerge --info mesa
I can not be sure if what I experienced recently could be related to this bug. I could not start sddm or anything related with QT 5 . After having a long game of hide-and-seek with this problem I found this: https://bugs.freedesktop.org/show_bug.cgi?id=91753 . I immediately masked the mesa-11-rc1, recompiled, rebooted and enjoyed the new KDE. To me it sounds like the lock ups of the RV620 card may be related to the oversized stream of commands mentioned in the linked report. Considering that I was not able to bring up anything related to 3D ( I was lucky to get the startx session running with firefox ), and that in both mine and this case a revert to the previous version of mesa solved the problem; I think those two are related to the same patch. According to the discussion in the linked report the offending commit has been reverted in rc2 and no new attempt at the change will be taken. A mask on that version of mesa seems to be a proper way to fix this bug. Today I updated to mesa-11-rc2 and experienced no problems. If our problems were indeed from the same source, then that means that upstream had fixed it. Im afraid, mesa-11.0.0_rc2 does not fix or even change the issue for me. So it might be something different than https://bugs.freedesktop.org/show_bug.cgi?id=91753 if that one is really fixed for others. Is anyone else still affected? thanx a lot Please file a bug upstream -- upstream should know if you're seeing GPU hangs and also x11@ can't help you fix them ourselves. Hi again! It is not enough to restart the X server to sufficiently test a new mesa version. Sorry about sharing my learning curve. mesa-11.0.0_rc2 does fix my issue after a fresh boot. So likely i was hit by https://bugs.freedesktop.org/show_bug.cgi?id=91753 . Will mark this as resolved upstream now. Solution is not to use mesa-11.0.0_rc1 whereras mesa-11.0.0_rc2 works fine in this regard for now. Thank you all for your patience & help! markus |
