Subject: Clock speed for GeForce 6100
Date: Sun, 01 Jun 2008 18:35:33 +0100	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <1212341733.27920.16.camel@meme.inline.com> (raw)

Hi,

The nouveau driver on my MSI K9N6GM (GeForce 6100 nForce 405)
motherboard generates a dot clock speed which is about 8% lower than the
value given in xorg.conf. The same happens with the nv driver. The same
appears to happen with other motherboards with GeForce 6100 (see
Bugzilla – Bug 12002).

I have seen reports of nVidia using the PCIE clock / 4 to drive some of
their cards and I noticed that 27000 / 25000 = 1.08. Applying the
following patch resolved my problem and now the nouveau driver works
fine for me:

+           else
+               pNv->CrystalFreqKHz = 27000;
     }

     pNv->CURSOR           = NULL;  /* can't set this here */

A similar patch fixed the nv driver.

The above patch is against the nouveau version which comes with Fedora 8
but, looking at the current git, it appears that this part of the code
hasn't changed recently.

Regards,

Mihai
