Description |
Build |
|
Rotation
|
Many X applications still do not support RandR extension and that can cause problems. Some
rotation issues are observed with KDE under SUSE* Linux* 9.3. Switching to
GNOME solved these issues. DGA applications will not be rotated by its design
limitation. |
3006 |
|
ACPI
Hotkey Failure |
X server fails and exits when switching to the
external display via ACPI Hotkey in some systems. |
3005 |
|
Rotation
Failure |
A crash occurs when rotating display in certain
circumstances. |
3004 |
|
Resolution
Switching |
Resolution Switching using “CTRL+ALT Keys” is
currently not functioning. 3D application may not render correctly when using
resolution switching with “xrandr –s …” |
3003 |
|
Rotation
Delay |
Rotation switch events can take up to 20 seconds to
complete on a dual core system. Disabling dual core reduces this to half the
wait time. This was due to an AGPGART problem. |
3002 |
|
Video
corruption |
Video corrupt when running video game, Unreal*
Tournament 2004 Demo. |
3000 |
|
Suspend/Resume
via ACPI |
Suspending and resuming with ACPI in the current
2.6 kernels is unreliable in some configurations as the ACPI support is
continuing to mature throughout this kernel. Some drivers have not yet been
updated to support suspend/resume and therefore can cause problems. |
3000 |
|
HDTV support |
The TV configuration is completely determined by
the Video BIOS and there are no configurations options within the driver to
change this behavior. |
