Do you indicate this is xf86-video-intel regression by writing 2.7.99.902 in the summary? What's the previous version working for you? (In reply to comment #4) > Do you indicate this is xf86-video-intel regression by writing 2.7.99.902 in > the summary? What's the previous version working for you? > Yes, sorry. Version 2.7.1. As suggested in bug#22831, I upgraded mesa to 7.4.5. Glxgears started working, but the KDE desktop effects still don't. Downgrading xf86-video-intel helps, so I think that here (vs. KDE bugzilla) is a more reasonable place to file a bug.

Here, I can't even enable desktop effects, and he complains about it being enabled and then not working. Leonid, could you maybe test it once more, but this time with functionality checks disabled(system settings -> desktop effects -> advanced tab -> disable functionality checks) If you get a black flickering screen, then this bug is a duplicate of bug #22907. /Matthias (In reply to comment #11) > Leonid, could you maybe test it once more, but this time with functionality > checks disabled(system settings -> desktop effects -> advanced tab -> disable > functionality checks) > > If you get a black flickering screen, then this bug is a duplicate of bug > #22907. > > /Matthias > I still receive the same error, even if I check that checkbox.

I tried all four combinations of driver version 2.7.1 and 2.8.0 and kernel modesetting on and off (by passing i915.modeset kernel option). Of the four, the only combination that works is 2.7.1 without kernel modesetting. Either upgrading to 2.8.0 or turning KMS on, breaks KDE. I attach all four Xorg.0.log's.

how about 2.7.1 with UXA enabled in xorg.conf, without KMS? (In reply to comment #18) > how about 2.7.1 with UXA enabled in xorg.conf, without KMS? > I tried the other way around -- 2.7.1 with KMS, with EXA enabled, no luck. Will try as you advise and report.

Gentoo has upgraded xorg-server to 1.6.2.901 and now everything seems to work. What do I do? Close the bug? reported fixed |

Created attachment 27817 [details] xorg.conf When I try to enable "desktop effects" in KDE 4.2.3, it says "Failed to activate desktop effects using the given configuration options". Also, when I run glxgears, I don't see actual gears, but only a black window (and shows 245 FPS which is a bit too good to be true on my hardware). So, I think that nothing Mesa-related works.
