           Summary: r600: rendering artifacts
           Product: Mesa
           Version: git
          Platform: Other
        OS/Version: All
            Status: NEW
          Severity: normal
          Priority: medium
         Component: Drivers/DRI/R600
        AssignedTo: dri-devel@lists.sourceforge.net
        ReportedBy: edwintorok@gmail.com


I have tested the open source radeon drivers on my ATI Radeon HD4650.
First of all many thanks for the work on this driver, KMS works like a charm
[1], and no 3D app has crashed (fglrx tends to deadlock lately).

Now to some rendering artifacts I noticed in blender (and some games, like
Heroes of Newerth beta).

To reproduce on Debian unstable x86-64:
1. Install blender 2.49.2 (apt-get install blender)
2. Open the attached test.blend
3. Switch to textured mode (press ALT-Z)
4. There are 3 noticable artifacts here (see screenshot1_r600 attached):
 - the floor tiles at the bottom have an L shaped whiteish stain on them, that
shouldn't be there
 - the spotlight has black stripes, instead of just lighting an area
 - the blender interface has a black/grey thing at the bottom that it shouldn't

5. Press P to start the game engine
6. Move the mouse around to move the spotlight. See the black stripes moving
along with it, there shouldn't be any black stripes at all!
See screenshot2_r600 vs screenshot2_swref

To get the reference renders you can either use fglrx, or Mesa's software mode
(which will be very slow, but will get nice renders). These images aren't
perfect either (there is some aliasing), but much better than the r600 ones:
LIBGL_ALWAYS_SOFTWARE=1 blender

If you need more info, just ask.

[1] I had to download&copy R700_rlc.bin to the proper place, and thanks to some
help on #radeon fix a missing libdri.so, but everything else worked
