Summary: [r300g] textures flashing (disappearing) with GLSL Product: Mesa Version: git Platform: x86 (IA32) OS/Version: Linux (All) Status: NEW Severity: normal Priority: medium Component: Drivers/Gallium/r300 AssignedTo: dri-devel@lists.freedesktop.org ReportedBy: xeros@irc.pl
I'm having some textures flashing (very quick showing and disappearing) in when I enable GLSL shading. The problem I see when I enable blur effect in KDE 4.5.1 (some windows and panels are showing and disappearing) and in Nexuiz when I enable to use GLSL option in game settings menu. When textures are disappearing I can see through walls in Nexuiz or see my desktop wallpaper when I should see application window. It can be seen in game menu, too where 'Settings', 'About' and 'Quit' menus are flashing. It's flashing very quickly and cannot be seen on Nexuiz screenshots (I've done almost 100 of them to check).

Here the bottom panel does not show anything but the active window and time (everything else is invisible there) and window decoration is invisible, too.

Some textures look here like semi-transparent but they aren't, they change from visible to invisible... so quickly.

--- Comment #4 from Tomasz Czapiewski xeros@irc.pl 2010-09-26 14:05:09 PDT --- Maybe this will be usefull - After some searching for a way to improve FPS (by disabling vblank(?)), I've found that setting "vblank_mode=0" environment variable solved this issue (textures are not invisible anymore) in Nexuiz instead of disabling the limit of FPS to 30 or 60 FPS in game.
Sorry for off-topic but is there a way to disable this FPS limit by vsync in games? I'd rather want to have 40-50 FPS rather than 30 if the game on my PC could not get full 60 FPS. "vblank_mode=0" works for disabling this limit in glxgears but not in Nexuiz (I've tried to force disable it by driconf and in game, too).

--- Comment #5 from Michel Dänzer michel@daenzer.net 2010-09-27 04:19:46 PDT --- The Nexuiz issue looks like bug 28341, but that was in r300c and fixed a while ago... I wonder if somehow you might be using libGL.so.1 / r300_dri.so binaries different from the ones you think, or if they might be built incorrectly.

I'm not sure how the drivers and mesa were built (it's ppa:xorg-edgers/radeon: https://edge.launchpad.net/~xorg-edgers/+archive/radeon for Ubuntu 10.04, but I used it on Kubuntu 10.10 and both mesa and dri have been upgraded) and I'm almost sure I'm using r300g, not r300c (glxinfo output: "OpenGL renderer string: Gallium 0.4 on RV350"). I haven't seen the picture of the problem in bug 28341, but I don't have "*ERROR* Invalid command stream !" error or any other related errors in dmesg.

--- Comment #7 from Tomasz Czapiewski xeros@irc.pl 2010-09-28 12:22:19 PDT --- I've tried different vblank_mode settings and with set to 0 or 1 the problem is gone but after setting it to more than 1 or without any vblank_mode setting the problem is still there on Mesa 7.10.0~git20100927+gallium+r300.029c099b-0ubuntu0tormod. What can I do more to get more information to help track this bug? As I've said before, there's no error in dmesg or other logs for this issue.
