Comment 282 for bug 541511

Hey guys I would really like to thank you All and especially Daniel for your hard work for solving this problem. I was struggling with it since I upgraded from Slackware 12.2 to 13.0. I've been making long searches in internet and finding many people with the same problem and not a single solution. I'm really happy that finally there is a real chance to get this solved.

Yesterday I build a kernel with patch v9 and the crashes stopped. Finally I could upgrade the intel driver from 2.3.2-legacy to 2.11. Unfortunately there were several problems:

1.The video performance slowed down and now I can't watch HD videos any more (I worked so hard last month to get HD 720p working on my old laptop :( )
If I boot without KMS and the legacy driver the video is faster, but no 3D accel:

(EE) AIGLX error: i915 does not export required DRI extension
(EE) AIGLX: reverting to software rendering
(EE) AIGLX error: dlopen of /usr/lib/xorg/modules/dri/swrast_dri.so failed (/usr/lib/xorg/modules/dri/swrast_dri.so: cannot open shared object file: No such file or directory)
(EE) GLX: could not load software renderer
(II) GLX: no usable GL providers found for screen 0

2. When I tried to open a game with wine I had again crash:

(WW) intel(0): i830_uxa_pixmap_swap_bo_with_image: bo map failed
(WW) intel(0): i830_uxa_prepare_access: gtt bo map failed: Input/output error
(WW) intel(0): i830_uxa_prepare_access: gtt bo map failed: Input/output error
(WW) intel(0): i830_uxa_prepare_access: gtt bo map failed: Input/output error
(EE) intel(0): Failed to submit batch buffer, expect rendering corruption or even a frozen display: Input/output error.

I would like to help you if I can. I don't have knowledge of low level programming but at least with testing.

I have attached dmesg and i915_error_state (sorry that it's in the previous post)

And one more thing:
I have
kernel-2.6.34-rc6 from drm-intel-next + v9 patch
libdrm-2.4.20
xf86-video-intel-2.11
mesa-7.8.1
xorg-server-1.6.3

just I would like to ask how are you upgrading xorg-server cause there are many packages related to it and I don't feel like spending days to build all X11.

Thanks!
