Bug Description

After updating the Ubuntu HWS stack in 14.04 to Wily (kernel 4.2 and xserver-xorg-video-radeon-lts-wily), system boots up fine, but screen is laggy; although DRI3 is now enabled (according to Xorg.0.log), 2D acceleration seems to be gone.

System is an older Pentium laptop (Packard Bell EasyNote) with a Radeon Xpress 200M chip (r300 driver). Video acceleration was working with DRI2 under the Vivid stack (kernel 3.19-64-lowlatency + xserver-xorg-video-radeon-lts-vivid).

I'm using a 14.04 LTS-based distro, ElementaryOS, with vanilla HWS stacks.
(Testing with Oibaf's PPA or Xorg-edgers repo did not solve the problem either, so I purged the PPAs and reverted to official Ubuntu sources)

Here's Xorg.0.log: (with /etc/X11/xorg.conf; removing it did not solve the problem)

Tried adding "vblank_mode=0" to /etc/drirc, Option "SwapbuffersWait" "false" to /etc/X11/xorg.conf as well as Option "DRI" "3". While performance of the Wily Xorg stack is overall worse than Vivid, DRI3 is definitely the insult added to injury, so to speak.

What information would you need from my system to begin pinpointing possible problems or confirming possible regressions?

indigocat, thank you for taking the time to report this bug and trying to help make Ubuntu better. However, ElementaryOS is not a software package provided by the official Ubuntu repositories. Because of this the Ubuntu project can not support or fix your particular bug. Please report this bug to the provider of the software package. Thanks!

If you are interested in learning more about software repositories and Ubuntu, check https://help.ubuntu.com/community/Repositories.

The package, however, is in the official Ubuntu repositories.

That is the reason why I'm reporting the bug.

Cheers!

BTW, same performance regression is observed using the lts-xenial stack (coupled with kernel 4.4).
It isn't EOL.

Packages are plain, vanilla Ubuntu.

Here are 2 videos: the first is using the Vivid xorg stack, YouTube fullscreen on Chromium. The second video is the same, under the Xenial stack.

Vivid: https://youtu.be/Ykhp2L_pf7Y
Xenial: https://youtu.be/p7FvXTzlIa0

The regression is patent, and it was already there in Wily.

It would be nice to know if someone going to read what I'm typing here, or if I can just quit reporting bugs and use that spare time in going for a walk or having a beer with friends.
