Booting Errors

[pags]

Well, I just typed 'glxgears' at the terminal and got the output (amazing!)

http://postimage.org/image/928g0l5s7/

Code: [Select]

[linuxearth@localhost ~]$ glxgears
Running synchronized to the vertical refresh.  The framerate should be
approximately the same as the monitor refresh rate.
302 frames in 5.0 seconds = 60.237 FPS
293 frames in 5.0 seconds = 58.573 FPS
XIO:  fatal IO error 11 (Resource temporarily unavailable) on X server ":0"
      after 1320 requests (1320 known processed) with 0 events remaining.

but I don't know why Synaptic is not showing that result.

If you want to see the largest number possible (with the Intel drivers), use:

Code: [Select]

vblank_mode=0 glxgears

This will force it to not sync to the vertical refresh rate of the monitor.

Oh I see...nice.

But the main issue right now is: http://www.pclinuxos.com/forum/index.php/topic,99581.msg845272.html#msg845272

I think there's something seriously wrong with those framerates.

So re installation is the solution?

I take it you're not running an Intel video chipset?  The Intel driver limits the framerate to match the vertical refresh rate, by default.  See my previous message:

No, pags. I have Nvidia GPU. So I take it that with the option vblank_mode=0, buggs can get a much reasonable result on the glxgears test?

[pags]

Yes, for Intel video.

I don't have access to the newer i5 and i7's, so I don't know how they fare (their IGPUs are considerably different from their previous hardware).

hi,

while i am trying for this all, but friends, i am going out of station for some days, when i come back, i just see the issue. Really in great hurry....

Thanks

Good luck, buggs... I hope you'll feel hopeful when you come back.
