OK Versions: nouveau-f1099810bb3cfe451877667a0224eb3d664e442f Question: The patch: Always allocate 2 hw cursors. Is it worth another try since I just downloaded my source minutes or seconds *before* it was applied? Want me to retry with it? drm-97fdadee6a79f9406a55c235ee46104814321152 I used a small script that changed the resolution. Kept it going for a minute changing resolution every 2 seconds. The cursor stayed 'alive'. Logging out and rebooting the X-server caused the cursor to disappear. Trying to kill the X server just after the cursor disappeared made the kernel unhappy and my system somehow crashed. (want more data?) I also noticed something else: Whenever I change the resolution with xrandr. If you move the cursor during the change the screen seems to go 'white'. I noticed this as well sometimes when the X-server crashed because of the blob after a severe error. However, if I stop moving the cursor, the screen restores after a while since another xrandr -s [1-5] command is issued effectively restoring the display. Please let me know if you need more information / want me to do more testing. -- Configure bugmail: http://bugs.freedesktop.org/userprefs.cgi?tab=email ------- You are receiving this mail because: ------- You are the assignee for the bug.
