Free software drivers for the Intel 965GM Express ChipsetFree software drivers for the Intel 965GM Express ChipsetPosted May 11, 2007 12:48 UTC (Fri) by rankincj (subscriber, #4865)In reply to: Free software drivers for the Intel 965GM Express Chipset by nix Parent article: Free software drivers for the Intel 965GM Express Chipset
Interesting - I own a Radeon 9200 and it has definitely been known to crash X. (celestia, WoW etc.) In fact, the other week it brought my entire PC down with it! However, I have been assuming that this is because I am on Mesa's bleeding 7.0 edge.
May I ask which versions of X and Mesa you are running, please?

Free software drivers for the Intel 965GM Express Chipset Posted May 11, 2007 16:04 UTC (Fri) by AJWM (subscriber, #15888) [Link] Just as a datapoint, I have a 9250 and haven't had any problems - celestia, flightgear flightsim, etc. are just fine. Mesa 6.2.1 and the card's in an AMD64 box. Using the open source driver, of course. Mostly though I just do 2D, I only picked up the card for flightsim.
Free software drivers for the Intel 965GM Express Chipset Posted May 11, 2007 20:35 UTC (Fri) by nix (subscriber, #2304) [Link] Mesa 6.2.1 is a bit old, isn't it? Do you mean 6.5.1?
Free software drivers for the Intel 965GM Express Chipset Posted May 11, 2007 23:54 UTC (Fri) by AJWM (subscriber, #15888) [Link] No, 6.2.1 is correct. It's a relatively old install (Suse 10.0) and I haven't got around to updating it yet.
Free software drivers for the Intel 965GM Express Chipset Posted May 11, 2007 20:35 UTC (Fri) by nix (subscriber, #2304) [Link] No trouble with xserver 1.1.1 or 1.2.0 and xf86-video-ati 6.6.3 combinedwith Mesa 6.5.0 or 6.5.2. (All compiled from upstream sources.)
