the moment i click the create msg box the cursor freezes and my box locks up.
build system:
. debian testing / unstable . both kernels 2.6.0 & 2.6.1 . gem-0.888pre and todays CVS . pd-0.37-1test3 . radeon 7500 (DRI / DRM =yes) . xlibmesa3 . libglut3 . ext3 fs
is it a good idea to try out a statically linked gem?
naturally i get no output as i have to power off. if anyone experiences this let me know!
it's likely i have overlooked something (like today's horoscope)
hasta luego,

this is most likely a problem with the kernel. have you tried booting into a stable 2.4.xx ?

i had the same problems on my pretty, shitty gericom notebook (radeon M6) with 2.6.0*-kernels: create a glx-context (either Gem or glxgears or whatever) and thats it. the box doesn't really lock, just the Xserver freezes. i could log in remotely.
however, i upgraded the xserver to debian/unstable 2 days ago. yesterday i compiled/installed a 2.6.1-kernel. and hooray it works. (but i don't know what exactly it was) i thought guenter is right that this is a plain kernel issue, so 2.6.1 has fixed it for me

not yet, i will compile one and try it out. this is a fresh install, i moved from 2.2.0 --> 2.6.* overnight .. previous versions of GEM on a 2.6.0 kernel on this same box worked however.

this is not my experience however. i play quake3, write / compile / test GL applications, model in blender... GEM offers a new 'context' here ;)

mine may not be a *total* lockup but sshd doesn't hear me, i can't ping the box, and sysreq doesn't help...

hmm this is a possibility.. this xserver is about a week old.

yep i have tested on a 2.6.0 (stable TM) and yesterday i compiled a 2.6.1 (which fixed alot of other little annoyances albiet).
:: and hooray it works. :: (but i don't know what exactly it was)
those words make me feel isolated from my computer, but i'll get over it.

humm not here!
thanks all, i'll try a stock 2.4.* all the same, though because of some peripheral and performance dependencies i can't roll back from 2.6.* without breaking my rig.
