JFYI как возможный workaround (хотя надо смотреть патчи для xorg). ----- Forwarded message from Bernard Blackham ----- Date: Fri, 7 Jan 2005 22:12:25 +0800 From: Bernard Blackham To: dri-devel@ Subject: Suspending with i915 and DRI (possible solution?) Organization: Dagobah Systems User-Agent: Mutt/1.5.6+20040907i Greetings, I have an Intel i855GM chipset in my laptop, running Xorg 6.8.1 with i810 and i915_dri for DRI, and kernel 2.6.10 with the i915 kernel module. DRI is all well and happy, and glxgears achieves about 800fps. I use Software Suspend 2 (2.1.5.11) from softwaresuspend.berlios.de, and upon suspending and resuming, I found that GL apps would freeze when trying to be launched (as has been reported before). So I did some digging and poking, and wrote the attached little C program that calls I915_RESUME_DMA in the i915 drm driver, and surprisingly, this lets me run GL applications once more without restarting X. If I simply run it after resuming and returning back to X, I can run GL applications again. Even more interestingly though, is if I run it after resuming but before returning back to X, existing GL applications don't lock up and continue to run, with some small mishaps: - on the first suspend invocation (from a freshly started X), Xorg will consume 99% CPU (though still be otherwise functional) until I kill glxgears *and* switch VTs to text and back to X. On subsequent suspend invocations, this doesn't happen. If I'm not running glxgears or a GL app when suspending, it doesn't happen either. - glxgears' reported fps will drop from the usual 800fps on a freshly started X, to about 200fps on a suspend/resumed one, but CPU usage is pretty close to zero indicating that it's certainly not software-GL. I can still play tuxracer after resume with no noticable differences. - running tuxracer whilst suspending and resuming results in a garbled screen (fair enough though :). You can make out enough of the screen to exit tuxracer and restart it again... I guess I'll have to stop tuxracer whilst suspending for now ;) So this is really just a quick hack but is it worth considering moving into something like the X dri driver? (eg, on vt switch?) And is it just working for me out of pure luck? :) I can imagine that to restore full DRI would take much more work (textures and the like).
