I'm no expert at this, but my own findings support only that the problem is
the amount of memory being locked, not the type of memory, neither that it
happens to be the same memory we are locking.
I'm running quite happily with DRI enabled on
my ATI card now, the problem
was definitely that it was trying to lock too much memory.
Ok. I assume that you have a Firegl T2 with 128Mb Ram (using the ATI 3.7.0
drivers) ?
Since shrinking the
amount of vidmem that X utilizes I haven't run into this problem again
(see other message for the actual remedy).
Yep, I read that message.
I wasn't so sure if that was a complete solution though, as Paul talked
about faillure to lock memory for _various_ reasons :) So another solution would be to add more RAM to the
machine you're working
on ? :)
That's my prefered solution, buy my way out of trouble ;-P.
