Description Charles Christie 2007-05-29 05:57:23 UTC
I have Gentoo Linux, gentoo 2.6.21-r1 and Xorg 7.2. My driver version is xf86-video-i810 2.0.0.

If I play Nexuiz or Warsow, most notably, the games freeze very quickly after gameplay starts or, in Nexuiz's case, as soon as you click Single Player and it shows you your next level. Also, a game called toycars moves VERY slowly, although it shouldn't as it is a very simple game. I don't recall any of this stuff happening before... I don't know exactly what I upgraded, but it made Beryl a little more unstable, rarely froze X at shut-downs and VT switches, and made these games unplayable. What's going on?
