Thank you for the information.

The X1000 kernel 4.2 packages have already an amdgpu kernel module.

Guys,

I have broken the record of the Glxgears values.

Fedora 17 PPC64 with kernel 4.2-rc8 has the best glxgears values I have ever seen on the X1000.

The best values before were on Lubuntu 12.04.5 with Mesa 8.0.4:

Code: Select all

christian@AmigaoneX1000:~$ vblank_mode=0 glxgears
ATTENTION: default value of option vblank_mode overridden by environment.

many issue was resoved from kernel 4.3 and up... we have to hope that mate swap soon to new kernel. right now is 4.2.2x.

Hi all,

I have replaced the unofficial Mesa 10.0.4 (http://www.supertuxkart-amiga.de/amiga/ ... icial.html) with the official Mesa 11.0.6 on ubuntu MATE 16.04 PowerPC and on Debian Sid PowerPC today.

With 32-bit there isn't 3D acceleration available:

Code: Select all

OpenGL
Vendor                                Unknown
Renderer                            Unknown
Version                               Unknown
Direct Rendering                No

I added DefaultDepth 16 to the section Screen in the xorg.conf.

After that it works but unfortunately with wrong colors and it isn't as fast as the unofficial Mesa 10.0.4.

Code: Select all

OpenGL
Vendor                                Xorg
Renderer                            Gallium 0.4 on AMD BARTS (DRM 2.43.0)
Version                               3.0 Mesa 11.0.6
Direct Rendering                Yes

Cheers,

Christian

Hi all,

I was able to patch the latest Mesa version 11.0.7 because of the problems with the wrong colors. It works with the right colors in 32-bit color depth.

Download: MesaLib-11.0.7-powerpc-unofficial.tar.bz2

PLEASE use the unofficial Mesa version 10.0.4 if you want a stable and reliable 3D acceleration.

Cheers,

Christian

Hi Christian,

Nice work!

Could you please publish your patch for correct colors in 11.0.7?

I used the old patch which I had used in this thread for 10.0.4.

Hm, weird. Using the same patch as for 10.0.4 on 11.0.7 does not give correct colours for me...

(Kernel 4.4.0-rc4, Xorg 1.17.4, 16 bit root window)
