Summary: Sluggish desktop with BARTS and power_profile = low Product: DRI Version: XOrg CVS Platform: x86-64 (AMD64) OS/Version: Linux (All) Status: NEW Severity: normal Priority: medium Component: DRM/Radeon AssignedTo: dri-devel@lists.freedesktop.org ReportedBy: aidan@cisco.com
Radeon 6870 with latest d-r-t, git mesa/ddx. The whole desktop experience with the low power_profile is rather sluggish. Setting it to default/high fixes it, but also chews up another ~50W of power - no thanks. Upgraded from rv790 which worked fine with the low power_profile.
Also tried "mid" just to see, but dmesg says forced high.
