Dri problems with VIA chipset #120

Closed asokero closed 10 years ago

asokero commented 10 years ago

Devices with VIA chipset are unstable when dri is enabled. (f.ex. Epatec etc-3800). We should add a fix (tag or similar) to turn the dri on/off. It should work with all the device images (thinclient...). Currently it has been done by modifying thinclient device images like this:

sudo rm /usr/lib/xorg/modules/extensions/libdri.so
sudo rm /usr/lib/xorg/modules/extensions/libdri2.so

How the problem is reproduced?

asokero commented 10 years ago

I guess running any desktop application by wine will do. For example this http://pivotanimator.net/Download

Puavo tag -controllable mechanism for disabling 2D acceleration has been implemented: https://github.com/opinsys/puavo-ltsp/commit/7946b9a42eff819d1742e5ad635932f9b1ab4318

It is backported also to previous generation.
