Hi I've bisected pretty big performance regression (nv92): $ git bisect good b2737681d5442f05ab6419e05468c3d2511a5ced is the first bad commit commit b2737681d5442f05ab6419e05468c3d2511a5ced Author: Martin Peres <martin.peres at ensi-bourges.fr> Date: Sat Jul 30 23:08:45 2011 +0200 drm/nv50/gr: enable ctxprog xfer only when we need it to save power This patch adds

Firmware files in firmware/ directory are not expected to be in binary format. The nouveau files are in binary format, and are therefore removed when running e.g. make clean. Fix that by converting them to ihex format instead. The patch is really big as it contains the ctxprogs stuff, so I'll provide a link instead:

http://0x04.net/~mwk/0001-drm-nv50-Implement-ctxprog-state-generation.patch This patch makes nouveau generate its own ctxprogs out of thin air on NV50 family cards and allows us to get rid of nvidia's firmware. It differs quite a bit from nvidia progs and needs thorough testing on as many chipsets and applications as possible, including gallium3d. Anything that works with nvidia firmware,

So, I wrote a generator for ctxprogs on NV50, NV84, NV86, NV92, NV94, NV96, NV98. Atm it's only tested with NV86 and I'd like to see if it works for all the other cards, especially NV50. NVAx support is still missing due to some differences, but should be coming soon. Address is http://0x04.net/~mwk/gen.diff , please test it with all mentioned cards, and involve as much gallium as

This removes dependence on external firmware for NV50 generation cards. If the generated ctxprogs don't work for you for some reason, please report it.

Hi, Using kernel 3.9.4, with openSUSE 12.1 (KDE 4.7.4 I think), I was running fine for a long time with no problems. Today with openSUSE 12.3 (KDE 4.10.3, Xorg 1.13.2, upgraded on Jun. 10), my machine hung completely. I believe the nouveau driver is at fault rather than KDE or X, so chose this list. I think it might have been triggered by the "Clock" ScreenLocker (screen saver). It

Good day. I am Carlo - living in the Netherlands. Today I came in possession of a MSI-produced barebone laptop - a MS-1656-ID1 (which is equivalent in hardware to the GT640 "gaming" laptop). This laptop comes wih a video card that is identified as follows: 01:00.0 VGA compatible controller: nVidia Corporation GT215 [GeForce GTS 250M] (rev a2) (pci ID 10de:0ca9). For your info, the

11c/004 offset corresponds to PGRAPH reg 0x400828, and is initialised earlier anyway by both our ctxprog generator and blob ctxvals. It's actually incorrect with the generator, since we use different layout on pre-NVA0.

As you probably know, Ubuntu is switching from -nv to -nouveau as the default X driver for nvidia cards in the upcoming Lucid 10.04 release. We've got a pretty nice automated bug-reporting tool in Ubuntu called apport, which can grab all sorts of interesting logs and relevant information. Since we've switched over to nouveau by default, I expect the volume of bugs filed against the Ubuntu
