--- Comment #2 from 65a freedesktopbugs@63bit.net --- It appears that the same issue as mentioned by Michael Danzer is affecting Linux. Setting pixel depth to 16 does resolve the issue, and properly reports Gallium support. I am testing the patches now. Is there any plan to integrate these patches? What work needs to be done?

--- Comment #4 from kristof cdenatale3@gmail.com --- Hello,

I've successfully install Debian Jessie on iMac G5 revC (iSight) Facing same issue, I've followed these instructions here in order to downgrad mesa packages : http://ppcluddite.blogspot.fr/2012/03/installing-debian-linux-on-ppc-part-iv...

uname -a : Linux iMac17c 3.16.0-4-powerpc64 #1 SMP Debian 3.16.7-ckt9-3~deb8u1 (2015-04-24) ppc64 GNU/Linux

Workaround : 1) Jessie fresh install graphics results (no firmware non-free installed), able to log in graphic session :

2) then install it with non-free firmware :

but it breaks something :-(

3) according to the procedure provides in the link above, I've applied patch :

PS : can someone tells me if it this an "abnornal" things in the last dmesg | egrep 'drm|radeon' please ?

Thanks and have a nice day

The kernel side looks fine. It appears to be a problem with the usermode stack. You might be able to work around it by disabling acceleration. Try adding: Option "NoAccel" "True" to the device section of your xorg config.

I'm not really sure how well the usermode stuff works on BE systems.

Hi Alex and thanks for response,

Forgot to mention that I don't use : * xorg.conf * no options in my yaboot.conf * all the OS installation stand by default, just patch Mesa-lib

In this case, should I generate a xorg.conf then use it ?

Regards,

Kristof

All it needs to contain is the following.

Section "Device" Identifier "Radeon" Driver "radeon" Option "NoAccel" "true" EndSection

Hi ALex,

Following your advise, I've putted it in a xorg.conf Consequence : system disabled Gallium then returns on Software Rasterizer methode. It results that it improves perf, glxgears (without vblank=0 option set) run now 102 fps (60 before)

Kristof

--- Comment #10 from Alex Deucher alexdeucher@gmail.com --- (In reply to kristof from comment #9)

By checking my Xorg.0.log, I realized that "EXA" submodule is loaded instead "glamor" ... (noticed in my workaround firmware non-free installed + mesalib not patched) Since my gpu is a R300 (RV380-X600) family submodule should be "glamor", right or mistake from me due to misunderstanding something ?

All pre-SI cards use EXA by default. I'm not even sure the r300 cards are capable of using glamor anymore.

--- Comment #12 from Alex Perez aperez@alexperez.com --- I can confirm that the driver fails with no error here as well, on an e5500-based ppc64 system. Everything works (with acceleration) when depth is set to 16 bits. I know a handful of other people who have had the same problem on 32-bit ppc hardware (modern, non-macppc), so we can be reasonably confident that this is a broad ppc-specific issue (possibly be/byte-swapping related?)
