Hi all, |
2 |
|
3 |
I've had this problem with various nvidia-drivers and never been able to |
4 |
track it down. AFAIR it only happens during certain (one?) xscreensaver |
5 |
hack. One of the 3d ones, but not necessarily one named GL* |
6 |
|
7 |
When the hack starts, I see multiple tears every 1-2cm (10-15 in all), |
8 |
each one offset to the right by the same amount. The colours look |
9 |
inverted, or neon. The screen is "frozen". |
10 |
|
11 |
I can ssh in and initiate a shutdown, although it doesn't complete; or I |
12 |
can use the magic sysrq key. When the shutdown locks up, I can't use |
13 |
sysrq. |
14 |
|
15 |
Perhaps this is related, but when I run MoebiusGears with the settings |
16 |
maxed I can get performance like this: |
17 |
FPS: 220 |
18 |
Load: 100 |
19 |
Polys: 12000+ |
20 |
|
21 |
but sometimes on a different instance the FPS drops drastically to <90. |
22 |
Don't know why. |
23 |
|
24 |
I have: |
25 |
nVidia Quadro FX 1600M (laptop) |
26 |
2.6.32-tuxonice-r1 |
27 |
x11-drivers/nvidia-drivers-190.53-r1 |
28 |
x11-wm/compiz-0.8.4 |
29 |
x11-base/xorg-server-1.7.4 |
30 |
|
31 |
any ideas? thanks, |
