[mi] EQ overflowing. The server is probably stuck in an infinite loop. Is seht by the mi layer when the input event queue fills up in the Xserver. The input event queue is handled asynchronously in an event handler for SIGIO. This event handler updates the cursor position on screen (at least when a HW cursor is used) and adds an event to the event queue - especially when the user moves the mouse impatiently which usually happens when nothing happens. The event queue is processed in the server's main loop. This main loop is however stuck somewhere in the driver waiting for the HW rendering engine to finish thus the event queue will not be processed. The HW rendering engine is independent of the hw cursor which is realized as some sort of overlay that has no representation in the frame buffer on most hardware. Thus the cursor position will be updated although the rendering engine is out in the woods. So, the intel and the nouveau issues are indeed separate even if they both print the same message. -- Configure bugmail: https://bugzilla.novell.com/userprefs.cgi?tab=email ------- You are receiving this mail because: ------- You are on the CC list for the bug.
