 Hardware and software info

Intel Graphics HD video adapter doesn't perform well in OpenGL mode probably due to this error.

I have Intel Core i5 650 CPU, 4GB of RAM and Intel H55 based motherboard.

Some relevant hardware software/information is attached.
Comment 1 Artem S. Tashkinov 2010-03-03 10:45:06 UTC
I have enabled these options in the kernel and this error message is now gone:

CONFIG_MTRR_SANITIZER=y
CONFIG_MTRR_SANITIZER_ENABLE_DEFAULT=1
CONFIG_MTRR_SANITIZER_SPARE_REG_NR_DEFAULT=1

Unfortunately OpenGL performance is still unsatisfactory:

[birdie@localhost ~]$ glxgears
4044 frames in 5.0 seconds = 808.746 FPS
4012 frames in 5.0 seconds = 802.318 FPS

However this issue isn't a Linux kernel concern.

Feel free to close this bug report if the aforementioned options are a must for the i915 drm functioning.

note: glxgears isn't a benchmark.  If you have performance problems with real apps you should file them at bugs.freedesktop.org.  Thanks.
