Description Paulo Dias 2009-07-10 12:35:49 UTC 
cairo-dock 2.0.x crashes dri2/kms when running in pure opengl mode (cairo-dock -o).

using cairo-dock -i -o (opengl indirect rendering), doesnt crash but cairo-dock shows up with a black bar (where it should be the alpha transparent channel).

latest mesa/ddx/drm from today with airlied kms patches from kms branch.

rs485 card (aka the evil one)

best regards

with todays latest code (mesa/ddx/drm/linus), cairo-dock -o still crashes my hw without even a kernel error! anyone else seeing this behaviour?
Comment 2 Nicolai Hähnle 2009-07-18 02:02:25 UTC 
Could you please provide additional information? In particular, can you provide a backtrace? Can you be more precise as to what "crashes my hardware" means?

I cant, didnt provide a backtrace, because what i mean with "crashes my hardware" is exactly that. when i call cairo-dock -o, the entire machine stalls, i cant go to a tty, i cant use sysrq keys, the system just dies with a black sc screen. no syslog error or messages error, no nothing when i reboot.

if you have any idea to get more info, i can try it.

best regards

with latest kernel 2.6.32-rc* and mesa/ddx/drm, cairo doesnt crash radeon anymore, changing this to fixed, great work.
