Cursor skipping under load with Intel KMS

This is driving me nuts...
Performance with Intel drivers and KMS is usually decent. However, under certain loads - most notably, starting Wine - the cursor skips and freezes nonstop. This wasn't an issue when I was able to disable KMS, but now that KMS is required... Well, there it is. Is there any way to work around this?

Well, downgrading the driver could do.
BTW, I can't even boot up normally with 2.10 driver and KMS - it simply throws out a blank screen. Downgrade to 2.9 solved the problem.

7950 twin frozr iii running under load with nothing going on?

For some reason (and randomly it seems) my GPU load will be nearly maxed and heating up the gpu for no reason. I had left it sitting as i went to the store shortly after turning it on and it was running around 80-95%~ load when all that was going was skype in the background along with MSI afterburner and AMD catalyst. Why would it randomly do this?

Can you follow this >>Posting Guide<< please. Make sure you provide enough detail.
Try removing drivers once again, but this time use >>Driver Fusion<< while in safe mode, then reboot and install fresh drivers from AMD (don't look on MSI's for GPU drivers). Also uninstall Afterburner.
If your HDD is quite big, are you able to create new partition and install fresh Windows on it/or different HDD where OS is not installed? So you don't remove all the current drivers etc, we want just fresh windows on new partition to see if it's something messed up with OS.

Intel KMS + mplayer with .32 kernel

Hi
Just want to mention that with the new 2.6.32 kernel from [testing] mplayer works again in framebuffer with intel KMS
I have a 915 GM chipset and was not able to watch a movie in tty for months (since I switched to KMS). Just use it with -vo fbdev2.

Wow, this is great. Last time I tried was with 2-6.32-rc8 and it didn.t work. Glad they managed to fix it before releasing -final.

New N570GTX Frozr III PE not stable at stock voltage under load

I just built a new system with one new MSI N570GTX Twin Frozr III PE card. I was getting similar behavior in games as other users have reported here (card effectively "reboots" or shuts down for a split second looking at Afterburner). It happend in WoW sporadically (nothing else installed yet), but I think this is because it's not a demanding game, rarely putting a ton of load on the GPU. With 3DMark 11 it was easily repeatable. In fact, the Benchmark Test (free ver) wouldn't even boot up under stock voltage.
I found that under load my card was only drawing a core voltage of .975 and once I bumped it up to +12(.987v) it became stable. Below are the pertinent details along with my question. Stock resting it was .912v and that seems like a common number for this card.
Beta Nvidia 275.50 drivers
Afterburner 2.2.0 Beta 5
Corsair HX750W PSU (plenty of power, and I did play around with switching plugs for the 2 PCI-E cables, no difference)
Now, I've found my issue, which was low core voltage. My question is this though...
Show I be worried that my card was not drawing enough voltage under load with stock settings? Is this indicative of faulty components that might get worse with time? Should I RMA this card for a replacement just to be safe?
If this is nothing to worry about, cool...it will be a pain in the ass to have to run Afterburner all the time, but I guess once I get to overclocking this thing, I'd be doing that anyway. Thanks in advance.

Just got a crash at +12 after an hour goofing around in WoW, so I've bumped it up to +18 (.931v resting, .993v under load).
And yeah, running Afterburner isn't a huge issue. I'm more looking for guidance around if I should RMA this considering it isn't stable out of the box when under load. I know this should be somewhat expected when buying an o/c card, but I'm curious how unique my situation is. I love the card and even if I did RMA it would be for another Frozr III. I just want to make sure that if I need to do this, I do it w/in Amazon's window of return.
My worry is when I do get this thing stable and start to o/c it, I'll be pushing some dangerous voltages to reach speeds other with this card can get to relatively safely.
Edit: It occurs to me that with this second crash, maybe voltage is only part of the puzzle. I thought I'd covered all my bases, but I'd be open to suggestions on other things to tweak or try.
Edit2: I just realized that I made a mistake in the OP. This is a Frozr III PE/OC edition.

Cursor skips in Mail 8.0 on word with apostrophe

When typing any word with an apostrophe in the middle (e.g. we'll, we're, she'll, it'll) in Mail 8.0, when I hit the spacebar after typing the word, the cursor skips back/left two spaces to between the first and second "l" in the word just typed.
Anyone else seeing this? It's mightily annoying.
I'm running Mail 8.0 (1990.1) on Yosemite 10.10 (14A389) on a Macbook.

Yes, I'm seeing this too - started a thread about it here:

Only black screen on the external monitor with intel-virtual-output

Hello,
I tried to install bumblebee on my Lenovo W520 with this tutorial:
http://www.unixreich.com/blog/2013/linu … ly-solved/
I can activate my external monitor with "intel-virtual-output" and the monitor is switching on. But I can only see a black screen.
In the settings of gnome I can see my external monitor and configure it - but it shows nothing.
Have you any ideas?
Thanks a lot!

Hi,
Same problem here on my Lenovo W530.
Intel-virtual-output used to work fine but since it got upgraded the virtual output stays black.

FCP X is loading and loading with the colour wheel revolving for ever for the past few days.

FCP X is loading and loading with the colour wheel revolving for ever, for the past few days.
FCP X was working fine in my new 15" Mac book pro (Retina display with Mountain Lion 10.8.2) for the past one month. Now a days, each time I try to open the FCP X, the same non-stop colour wheel is rotating, trying to restore one of my project. It continues even for hours together. Finally I am force quiting the application.
How do I come out of it ? Will I be able to recover my project. I didn't do any backup in particular.
Is backing up on the regular basis is required?
I tried the following guidance by Apple,
In the Finder, hold down the Option key and choose Library from the Go menu.
In the Library folder that opens, go to Application Support/Final Cut Pro.
Drag the Layouts folder from the Final Cut Pro folder to the Trash.
Still my problem is continued
Help me

This is my pet checklist for questions regarding FCP X performance - you may have already addressed some of the items but it's worth checking.
Make sure you're using the latest version of the application - FCP X 10.0.5 runs very well on my 2009 MacPro 2 x 2.26 GHz Quad-Core Intel Xeon with 16 GB RAM and ATI Radeon HD 5870 1024 MB. I run it with Lion 10.7.5.
First, check that you have at least 20% free space on your system drive.
For smooth playback without dropping frames, make sure 'Better Performance' is selected in the FCP X Preferences - Playback Tab.
If you have not already done so, move your Projects and Events to a fast (Firewire 800 or faster) external HD. Make sure the drive's formatted OS Extended (journalling's not required for video). You should always keep at least 20% free space on the Hard Drives that your Media, Projects and Events are on.
Check the spec of your Mac against the system requirements:
http://www.apple.com/finalcutpro/specs/
Check the spec of your graphics card. If it's listed here, it's not suitable:
http://support.apple.com/kb/HT4664
If you are getting crashes, there is some conflict on the OS. Create a new (admin) user account on your system and use FCP X from there - if it runs a lot better, there's a conflict and a clean install of the OS would be recommended.
Keep projects to 20 mins or less. If you have a long project, work on 20 min sections then paste these into a final project for export.
If your playback in FCP X is not good, I strongly recommend you use ProRes 422 Proxy - it edits and plays back like silk because the files are small but lightly compressed (not much packing and unpacking to do) - but remember to select 'Original or Optimised Media' (FCP X Preferences > Playback) just before you export your movie, otherwise it will be exported at low resolution.
The downside of 'Proxy' is that it looks awful. DON'T use Proxy when you're assessing things like video quality - especially focus.
If you have plenty of processor power, for the ultimate editing experience, create Optimised Media - most camera native files are highly compressed and need a great deal of processor power to play back - particularly if you add titles, filters or effects. ProRes 422 takes up much more hard drive space but is very lightly compressed. It edits and plays back superbly.
Personally, I work with XDCAM EX and h.264 from a Canon DSLR. Both of these run fine with my system, but I do transcode multicam clips.
Hide Audio Waveforms at all times when you don't need them (both in Browser and Storyline / Timeline). They take up a lot of processor power. (Use the switch icon at the bottom-right of your timeline to select a format without waveforms if you don't need them at the moment, then switch back when you do).
Create folders in the Project and Events libraries and put any projects you are not working on currently, in those folders. This will help a lot. There's a great application for this, called Event Manager X - for the tiny cost it's an invaluable application.
http://assistedediting.intelligentassistance.com/EventManagerX/
Unless you cannot edit and playback without it, turn off Background Rendering in Preferences (under Playback) - this will help general performance and you can always render when you need to by selecting the clip (or clips) and pressing Ctrl+R.
The biggest single improvement I saw in performance was when I upgraded the RAM from 8 GB to 16.
If none of this helps, you might have incompatible or corrupt media or project files. Move ALL your Events and Projects to temporary folders so that FCP X doesn't find them on launch. If it launches OK, re-introduce the Events and Projects one at a time, re-launching each time, so that you can track down the corrupt or incompatible files.

GTX 760. Too high temperatures under load?

Hello,
I have just bought a new machine with a MSI GTX 760 Gaming card inside. I am not really sure if temperatures I'm seeing are OK.
The card idles at 32-33 degrees Celsius. This should be just fine I think. However, once I run some benchmarks or get into a game, the temperature rise to round 80~81 degrees and in most cases stabilise at that mark. Is this normal?
Most of the reviews I've read of the card so far show far lower temperatures under load so I started to be a little worried.
The above temperatures show under default MSI Afterburner fan profile. I haven't touched the card OC-wise, these temperatures being the main reason.
If I manualy set the fan to constant 70% I do get a significant drop in temperatures. Under load the card now reaches 69~70 degrees.
I know there are many factors involved here, so I provide some more info about the machine itself:
Seasonic SS-520GB PSU
Intel 3570K with Corsair H55 cooling
GA-Z77N-WiFi motherboard
Kingston HyperX, DDR3 2x4GB 1600MHz RAM
Bitfenix Prodigy case
1x120mm fan at front, intake
H55 rad + 120mm fan intake, also at front
1x120mm fan at rear, exhaust.
Any advice would be highly appreciated!

No need to worry. the Maximum GPU Temperature of GTX760 is 97°C (http://www.geforce.com/hardware/desktop-gpus/geforce-gtx-760/specifications) so your card is far from that mark. It is in a fine rage.
Temps strongly depend on the individual systems so you can't expect to get the temps any reviews listed. Individual temps might be lower or higher depending on the airflow in the case, other heating components, the fan profile of the current vbios, the applying of the thermal paste by the factory and so on.
As your case intakes hot air through the H55 that might be a reason for slightly higher temps. Also you have two times more intake than exhaust of hot air what can also increase temps. Furthermore you have a very small case so heat tends to stay where it was generated which causes components to heat up even more. In this situation your gpu temp is brilliant. Just game and be glad.

Failure under load

When under load my system is extremely unstable and im not sure why, its been a year of trouble shooting and still no luck. Here is how it all came about.
Its sort of hard to explain, basically the computer runs perfectally aside from slightly low scores in the 3d marks but i can live with that. Then when i try and play games the system becomes unstable. When i first built the computer almost exactally a year ago it used flash blue screen and restart when idle in windows at random intervals and since all the hardware was very very new and there didnt appear to be any reason for this i assumed that it was driver conflicts. At this time all games ran fine and no reboot problems occured when gaming. The over the past summer i got battlefield 2. When playing it the computer will restart at random intervals sometimes hours sometimes only 10 or 20 minutes. It locks up the sounds goes from skipping in a loop to resuming back to skipping for 30 seconds or a minute then it just restarts. Upon returning to windows i get a "Windows has recovered froma serious error" message and when sending the report it comes up as a driver problem or hardware issue with nvidia graphics card. After trying almost everything i could think of including every combination of every set of drivers and countless windows installs i decided it could be my video card. So i RMAed it and MSI sent it back with a pass. Back to square 1. So no my computer runs 100% stable in windows but as soon as i start gaming it only lasts an hour maybe nomally less before cash reboot.
Also when in windows if using an intensive program (the only one ive found so far is Pro Engineer) it will drift in and out of responsiveness. For example i will be drawing a 3d Model and the mouse will stop responding but keep moving, then the mouse will freeze and the computer will be fullylocked up, then it will unfreeze the mouse but remain unresponsive. This will continue for a couple fo minutes then it will resume and i can continue my work but 5 minutes or less later it repeats. The mouse is not just unresponsive in the application in question but entirely in windows.
Any suggestions would be greatly appreciated.

Error caused by a video device driver
Thank you for sending an error report to Microsoft.
Error report summary
Error type    Windows stop error (A message appears on a blue screen with error code information)
Solution available?    Yes
What does this error mean?    You received this message because a device driver installed on your computer caused the Windows operating system to stop unexpectedly. This type of error is referred to as a "stop error." A stop error requires you to restart your computer.
Cause    A video adapter device driver
Computer symptoms    A message appears on a blue screen with error code information:
STOP 0x000000EA THREAD_STUCK_IN_DEVICE_DRIVER
- or -
STOP: 0x100000EA THREAD_STUCK_IN_DEVICE_DRIVER_M
Action for you to take
We have analyzed your error report and there are two solutions for this problem for you to choose between.
+ Solution 1: Install the most current driver for your video card
* Go to the Microsoft Update website to see if there are any updated drivers for your video card. A driver is software that enables hardware or devices (such as a printer, mouse, or keyboard) to work with your computer. Every device needs a driver in order for it to work. If there are any drivers listed, you should install them.
* If there are no updated drivers at Microsoft Update, and you know the manufacturer of the video card, contact the card manufacturer's product support service for assistance.
* If there are no updated drivers at Microsoft Update, you don't know the name of the manufacturer of the video card, and you need more help diagnosing and resolving this problem, contact your computer manufacturer's product support service.
+ Solution 1: Most recent drivers
+ Solution 2: Manually decrease Hardware Acceleration for your video adapter
This is the error message i get from microsoft and i tried both of these things and they do not work. As for the sound i disabled it in the bios and tried still crash but it took longer. Now im using another card Audigy 2 value and it crashes less frequently.

[solved] Dual head / Xinerama / xrandr setup with Intel 945 & dwm

Recently came into possession of a 17" LCD and would like to use it in tandem with the internal LCD of my netbook. Clone works with xrandr, as does extended mode to an extent. The problem is that in extended mode (or spanning, or whatever you want to call it) the smaller screen has dead space which isn't respected by dwm (or any other WM I've tried). So I'd like to setup dual X sessions (aka Zaphod mode?), each running their own instance of dwm--I don't need to move windows from screen to screen so that's not a concern.
Has anyone had luck accomplishing this with the current intel driver? The closest I've gotten so far is a black screen/blinking cursor which drops back to a login prompt after a few seconds. I see a ton of related topics on Google about this and most of them are unresolved. If I can get something put together I'll document it in the dwm and/or intel wikis.
Specs:
* Acer Aspire One AOD150 with Intel GMA945 @ 1024x600
* LCD @ 1280x1024

It's a work in progress, but for those who are interested I was able to get a dual-head setup (using xrandr and the Xinerama extensions) with the current Intel driver (not legacy) using the following:

Until I have a chance to write a fancier script I've added the following to ~/.xinitrc:
xrandr --output LVDS1 --mode 1024x600
xrandr --output VGA1 --below LVDS1 --mode 1280x1024
The first command ensures the netbook screen takes the proper resolution and the second enables the external LCD. If I startx when the LCD is disconnected then the netbook screen is the only screen enabled (no dead space).
Caveats
1. With mplayer in fullscreen it appears as 1024x600 even when opened on the 1280x1024 screen.
2. The external LCD cannot be placed left or right of the netbook screen because it would exceed the 2048 virtual resolution which segfaults X with the latest intel driver. Virtual cannot be set higher than 2048 in either direction without segfaulting X; though I imagine this will be addressed in future versions of the intel driver.
Many thanks to mzapotoczny!

my classes are in a directory and aren't in a package. i run em by invoking ./start which is a small script that i wrote. The script is in the same dir as the classes and invokes java by "java Main >>logjava.txt " but this doesn't seem to work all i get is an empty logfile
i need to run the program every day at 0800 so i inserted the following in crontab:
0 8 * 1-5 /var/"path"/start > logjava (where path is the path to the classes dir)
if i run the cmdline from anywhere on the prompt i get the result i want. I think it's because the cron runs it from the root dir thus making java unable to find the classes
Any suggestions would be welcome. or can some1 tell me how to make linux executables from the java (i usually use jsmooth for the windows exe)

You can execute several commands in the process started by cron. You separate them using semicolons.
Have you tried a cron entry like this:
0 8 * 1-5 cd /var/"path";pwd;echo $PATH; ./start > logjavaOr, you may need to make sure the process started by cron gets the same environment as your interactive shells do, by explicitly loading your setup or .login scripts:
0 8 * 1-5 . $HOME/.setup;cd /var/"path";pwd;echo $PATH; ./start > logjava

Cache and/or Connection problems under load

I have a Kodo web app that's been running just fine in
production for many months now. However, recently the web
traffic has shot up by a huge amount, literally overnight.
But unfortunately, it's caused the app to fail very ungracefully
under the strain.
It's been a crazy few days, and I haven't been able to do
very much analysis because of higher priorities. But from
what I have been able to gleen, it now looks like Kodo is
the most likely culprit. From what I've read in other messages
here, it appears others may have been experiencing similar
problems.
My environment: Redhat Linux 8, Postgres 7.3.4 with the
included JDBC3 driver, Apache 1.3.x, Tomcat 4.1.x and the
webapp connector. Similar behavior was seen with Apache 2.x,
Tomcat 4.1.x and the JK2 connector (that was on the new machine
I setup to handle the new traffic, which, of course, died the
night before).
As I mentioned, this app has been running reliably for
months with no problems. But when placed under heavy load,
it appears to get into some sort of pathological state where
it slows down dramatically (asymptotically?) to the point where
it's effectively locked up. In one case, where the app was
left running for several hours in this state, requests were
taking 90 minutes to complete (normal is 1-5 seconds).
From what I can deduce, there seem to be four things
going on, three of which have been mentioned in recent threads
here:
1) Excessive memory consumption. When the app is
operating normally, I see fairly flat memory usage for
the JVM process. Under load, the JVM steadily expands
until it hits its heap limit. I've gotten OutOfMemory
exceptions with a heap size of 350MB, which should be plenty.
2) Level 2 cache locking issues. I've seen dozens of
threads waiting on a lock in the DataCache code. Not sure
if there's a deadlock happening here or just that the
threads are waiting on a lock that's being held for a long time.
3) Database Connection leaks or contention. I see threads
spinning in the DataSource code trying to get a connection.
I also see dozens of connections from the Postgres side which
seem to be sitting idle, but in the middle of a transaction.
When things get bad, I also see exceptions being thrown because
of timeouts waiting for a connection to become available. It's
a web app, PMs should not be tied up for more than a few seconds.
4) CPU usage pegged or nearly so for the JVM. I suspect
this is related to #3. Something very bad is going on here.
If I stop all inbound requests to the JVM when it's in this
bad state, it will continue to burn CPU at 90%+ for a very
long time. I think it will eventually finish what it's doing,
but I haven't had the luxury of waiting for it. It's definitely
not a linear slowdown proportional to the load.
Attached are my kodo.properties file and some thread stack
traces along with some comments. Any advice would be greatly
appreciated. This is not a complicated app nor am I doing
anything unusual. It doesn't seem logical that Kodo could
breakdown so dramatically under load, so I'm hoping it's some
sort of interaction thing that I can work around.
Thanks.

Please read prior posts regarding level 2 cache. It is unusable under stress
as far I am concerned. Basically entire cache gets locked on any database
read. Makes it very unscalable
Are you using 2.5.3? It will request a connection from a pool every time it
resolves reference to a PC even if it is cached in PM and therefore Kodo
does not need to read any. As result if you iterate over 100 objects in your
query and for each object resolve reference to another object (always the
same) kodo will request 100 database connections from the pool (and note
they issue rollback on every time they return a connection to the pool so
getting connection might be fairly expensive)
In conjunction with level 2 cache contention this causes application to go
into a stupor.
Try to go back to 2.5.2 (or may be 2.5.4 they promised in the near future
with a workaround) or use "persistent-manager" connection retention if you
discard PM after each HTTP invocation - it will take care of connection
pooling issue. As far as L2 cache I was unable to find any work around so
far - see if you might be better of without cache. You might if your object
graph is not very complex

With cahce enabled, 2.5.3
Here the app had recently slowed down and then effectively locked up.
There where many outstanding web requests that were not receiving output.
At this point most threads seemed to be waiting at the same location.
There were a large number of active database connections and most of
them had open transactions (according to pg_stat_activity). The app
was not responding to any web requests.
It would seem that db transactions had been started, then the thread
got stuck for a long time on a synchronization lock in the cache lookup.
Below are two randomly chosen thread stack dumps.

while running slow, 2.5.3
At this point, the app had been running several hours normally, then
apparently slowed down and locked up while I was away. When looking
at the app threads and database activity, everything appeared idle.
No transactions seemed to be open in the db. But the app was not
behaving normally. Web requests that did not make use of JDO worked
fine (but slow). But requests that hit the db either blocked or were
very slow to respond.
Looking back at the log, there had been a large number of requests
that threw exceptions because they could not get a connection within
five seconds.
Most threads were idle, waiting on read, but some were in the state
shown by the following two stack dumps. Unlike the cache threads above,
they did not seem to be waiting for a lock to be granted, they seemed
to be spinning in the connection management code. Apparently trying
to get a connection. I suspended and resumed the same thread repeatedly
and it always seemd to be doing the same thing. Single stepping was
very difficult because the debugger was slow to respond, apparently
because of other threads also busy spinning.
Postgres indicated that there where lots of connections open and
that they were all idle, so there should not have been a shortage
of connections in the pool. There are two mysteries here: 1) why
can't this thread get a connection? and 2) Why is it busy spinning?

With cache disabled 2.4.3
This run was an accident. I inadvertently ran the app with the older
2.4.3 version of Kodo, with the cache disabled. This one got into trouble
almost immediately. It also seemed to lockup with lots of opentransactions
in the db. It's also interesting that these two threads also seem to be
hanging around the same method as in 2.5.3.

Can PC software work on the iMac G5 with Intel?

Can PC software work with the iMac G5 with Intel processor? I need to know! And also, is there a new apple computer coming out next year (2007) that will be able to run PC software? I am mainly asking because I want to know if I will be able to run PC games on iMac G5 with Intel or the new computer coming out in 2007. I need to know!

Just an idea for you. There is an entire Apple Discussion forum dedicated to Boot Camp and Windows XP.
Whereas, not everyone here with an Intel iMac has installed, tried to install or has experience with BC & XP, everyone there has or at least has an interest. You may attract help more quickly there.
The Forum is at the bottom of the main Apple Discussions page under Windows Compatible Technology.
Here is a link;
Forum: Boot Camp Public Beta
Panther was the version of Mac OS X before the current version, Tiger. Apple Computer does not release information in advance of its introductions of new hardware/software and the rules of the Apple Disussions forbid "speculation." Boot Canp is Beta because it is not yet a permanent part of Mac OS X. It works fine. It does not require constant updates. It comes with instructions for its own installation as well for Windows XP SP2. You have to purchase Windows from Microsoft. Folks report that games run fine and that Windows runs better on their Macs than it ever did on their PCs!
Visit the Boot Camp forum at the above link for further info.

I bought a brand new Mac 27" desktop that came loaded with Adobe CS6. Everything worked like a charm until the hard drive, 1Tb, developed a bad sector and the Apple Store reinstalled a new one as I had extended warranty with them. They recycled the drive immediately (like a fool I didn't ask for it back to get the data off it.) But luckily I have all my data on CrashPlan. I downloaded it and it worked great except I downloaded it to the desktop and not the original location so it got squirrely. I also have an external 1.5Tb drive that I wanted to make bootable so I installed Mavericks 10.9.3 . I then went ahead and installed it on the newly installed drive too.
I think that because I have a new drive Adobe thinks I have a news computer. I bought the 27" Mac brand new from Ebay and it came loaded with software, including CS6. I have a serial number for CS6 but Adobe said it wasn't valid. (I have owned CS2, CS4 and now CS6 which came preloaded onto the Mac by the seller who told me that the software was registered to the Mac???
I am going to re-download the backup but this time to the original location (I still don't think it will work with Adobe. What can I do about this?

You need to contact Adobe Support either by chat or via phone when you have serial number and activation issues.
