Could you try either:
- Installing the libtxc_dxtn library (should be available somewhere for your
distro, otherwise get it here: http://homepage.hispeed.ch/rscheidegger/dri_experimental/s3tc_index.html )
Installing that library has solved the textures and bitmaps corruption problem, thanks! However, the GPU still hangs as mentionned in dmesg.
I tried getting a dump, but I couldn't find intel_reg_dumper in intel-gpu-tools-1.0.2, I only found intel_gpu_dump. However, it doesn't work as a user, and it hangs the machine as root, forcing me to reboot (I tried intel_gpu_dump > gpu_dump as root, and the machine becomes completely unresponsive).
- Setting "Enable S3TC texture compression" to "Yes" in driconf. (or just
force_s3tc_enable=true )
I couldn't find driconf, and I don't know where to put force_s3tc_enable=true; however, since installing libtxc_dxtn worked, I guess it isn't mandatory?
Thanks for your help!
