Hi,
my system : - ubuntu edgyup-to-date, - radeon 9700 using opensource radeon driver - vdr 1.4.3 (Eclipse pack from vdr.bluox.org) + vdr-xine 0.7.10 + xine-lib and xine-ui found at http://home.vrweb.de/~rnissl/
When DRI is loaded and 3D acceleration is ON my X server quickly freezes. My log (using ssh) tells me something like
buffer usage: 0% (tid=19349) ERROR: 1 ring buffer overflow (177 bytes dropped) Mar 21 03:30:45 sid vdr: [19350] buffer usage: 70% (tid=19349) Mar 21 03:31:00 sid vdr: [19350] buffer usage: 80% (tid=19349) Mar 21 03:31:01 sid vdr: [19350] buffer usage: 90% (tid=19349) Mar 21 03:31:02 sid vdr: [19350] buffer usage: 100% (tid=19349)
When i disable 3D acceleration (non dri) everything works fine but on HD channels (Astra, MPEG2) CPU load higher.
Is there a way to prevent this sort of vdr buffer overflow ? I would like to keep my 3D acceleration enabled
thx

Video does not use 3D acceleration, but it does need dri/drm. So you should check that MTRR and DRI/DRM (I don't remember which - "direct rendering" anyway) are enabled. Check /var/log/Xorg.log or equivalent for any error messages.
yours, Jouni
