Fedora :: F11 Low Performance Intel X3100?
Nov 21, 2009
I have a Dell Inspiron 1525 laptop with a X3100 on board. The problem is the performance doesn't really fit my expectations. Compiz works fairly OK, but TuxRacer runs at 25 FPS, Glest runs just terribly slow and there is quite noticeable tearing in videos (MPlayer and Totem). Not to mention 400-600 FPS in glxgears.So far I have only tampered with Xorg (see below, changes marked red).
Code:
Section "ServerLayout"
Identifier "X.org Configured"

I am trying to watch a movie on tv through an s-video cable, but it's black and white, or with very fade colours. I understood that I have to change output to pal. I also understood that I can do it in the xorg.conf file, but I don't have anything like that.
video card: intel x3100
system: ubuntu karmic 9.10

I used Ubuntu 9.10 with my current PC for about a six months, and never had much of an issue with my motherboard videocard. However, Moving up to 10.10, it seems a lot slower, and I get really bad fps on games. What's wrong here?

Is there anything I can do in Ubuntu 11.04 to get the Intel 945GM to work more stable and run faster? It won't load the Unity interface at ALL. It won't load the Classic Desktop unless I use the one without effects, or else the title bars disappear. Is there something I can do to make it more stable, and run more efficiently?

Ok first off, I love debian, but on my new notebook I am getting a little frustrated with the terrible, video performance.Direct rendering is enabled on both systems, and openGL is working (I can if I wanted to use compiz etc...) fine on both systems, just running slow on debian.
I have tried Lenny, Squeeze and Sid, I have compiled the intel driver (and Mesa3D) from git and got it working (I am sure its working because its given me a slight boost), I ahve also tried building the latest stable (and RC2) kernel.If I install ubuntu 9.10 I get pretty decent 3D performance, its not ground breaking, but hey its an intel chipset so I am not expecting to kick the latest nvidia / ati card's backside.I really dont want to use ubuntu, I find it unstable when compaired to debian, but I also want to be able to play the odd game when I am bored, and at the moment I just cant do that under debian

I am running kubuntu 9.10 on a dell inspiron 14 with an intel GM45 graphics card. When I run 3d games like Nexuiz, openarena and tremulous I get really random performance. Sometimes things are totally playable with somewhere between 50-80 fps and other times I get maybe 4 fps and everything takes forever to load. These effects persists between logouts, X restarts and reboots! I get no errors when I run things in console either.I never really play games much but when something doesn't work...

having not experienced the issues with jaunty and intel display cards, i can't say whether this is a real problem or not. from what i can tell, mtrr is not a problem.
on my new dell mini 10v w/ intel 945gme and a fresh install of karmic unr, video playback performance is only so-so.
most videos-style flash video is decent. local h.264 playback from .m4v and .mov containers is flawless. but streaming flash video originating as h.264 is dismally choppy - this includes vimeo and hulu-quality streaming video.

I just installed Ubuntu 10.04 64bit Desktop on my Vostro 1400 and I'm wondering what I have to do to be able to have 3D acceleration under VMWare (ie. be able to enable Aero under a Windows 7 guest).
VMWare has a popup saying "This computer does not have a 3D graphics system supported by VMware Player." How do I check what driver Ubuntu uses for the X3100? What driver would enable 3D?

I just wanted to know if having my laptop set to ondemand, will this affect performance in any way? I realize it increases the clock speed to performance when the CPU is under load, but does the time it take to go from ondemand to performance affect speed? Will there be any noticeable difference between the two setups? I have a dual core intel at 2.2GHz when in performance. When ondemand is set with no load it downclocks to 800Mhz.

very much like everybody i am also waiting for centos 5.3, because 5.2 could not sit on my notebook due to obvious driver issues. would anybody tell if centos 5.3 support my x3100 graphics card and bcm 4311 wlan card?

I'm noticing that the performance for FreeNX Server under Fedora Core 14 is really bad. The screen refreshing is painfully slow. I'm thinking maybe the issue is related to the use of opengl in the X driver? how I can disable opengl entirely, so that the X server is only using 2d rendering?

After being forced to rebuild my computer (failed drive) I finally got current and installed F11 (was using F9). I was watching GKrellm last night and noticed something odd. The CPU frequency on my processor (Phenom 9600) was scaled to the slower speed and was rarely being pushed to full speed.
I verified that cpuspeed was in ondemand mode and ran some processor intense tasks (huge image loads, large file cats, large yum installs, etc...). Only when I was able to sustain near 100% load would the system throttle to the full clock speed. It would then drop back to the slower speed very quickly even though the process was still running. As a rough benchmark, I ran these tasks again in performance mode to see what impact this was having. Most of these tasks were taking as much as 40-50% longer to complete in ondemand mode.
Digging further, I found that the default up_threshold in F11 is set to 95%!! This is verified by cating /sys/devices/system/cpu/cpu0/cpufreq/ondemand/up_threshold. This means that the system would not throttle to full speed unless a 95% load was sustained for multiple samples (36 miliseconds each by default).
I overrode these settings in /etc/sysconfig/cpuspeed. I change up_threshold to 60 and down_threshold to 30. I am at work right now, so I can't benchmark this change until tonight. I guess I could have just set it to performance mode and left it, but I'd rather save the power when the machine is idle.
Does anyone have any thoughts on why 95% is the default and if there is any problem/benefit to changing this to a much lower value? It seems that anyone with a CPU running SpeedStep or CoolnQuiet would suffer the same severe performance impacts I saw with the default values.

Recently I noticed there are on sale, from several manufacturers, some interesting and inexpensive laptops equipped with AMD's new Ontario C50 processor which for one thing seems to use little power (like the Atom), and the other and more interesting is the fact that it has the graphics embedded.
I am curious if someone here owns one of said laptops and can comment about the performance/compatibility of this Ontario chip, because some of these laptops are such good deals that I am seriously considering at least recommending them. Obviously if I purchase one of those I'd install Fedora on in. Two things puzzle me: is performance very far apart from that of a netbook, and second, how do the graphics perform? Do they use the Catalyst driver as well?

I have fedora 12 and since I started using firefox I noticed that it performs very slow. Slow when opening, when displaying information etc..I thought that there was something wrong with my wireless device but I installed opera and it works very fast. The strange thing is that before that I installed google chrome and also worked very slow for me.

I am trying to set up linphone for testing voip performance. Essentially I am a beginner with linux. I picked Fedora based on the recommendation of a friend. I am running Fedora 12 and I need to get linphone up and running with a working registrar. I have no idea what to do so I turned to hours of research which yielded little results but I did thing to try using partysip. I would like to know if this is a wise choice and if it is what do I do to set it up?

I just did (another) fresh install of FC13. On the last install I attempted to install the nvidia proprietary drivers (tried every guide I could find). When I installed the proprietary drivers, I could no longer boot. It would hang at the end tri-color progress bar. I could ALT+F2 to get to tty2, and deleting the xorg.conf file and init 5 would get me back to the Gnome login. I continued trying other methods, getting such results as a black screen with no way to access tty. I tried using the rescue function from the DVD, but this time I couldn't fix the problem by deleting xorg.conf and executing init 5.
After failing in everything I tried for the proprietary driver, I decided I'd give the new nouveau a shot. Every time I fresh install FC13, the graphics performance is TERRIBLE. Moving a window around or scrolling in Firefox is painfully choppy and borders on unusable. I tried 'yum install mesa-dri-drivers-experimental' but after rebooting the performance was still beyond crappy.
I can get proprietary drivers working in Debian Lenny without breaking a sweat, but I prefer Fedora as a whole by far.

My computer is running really slow after a power outage. It was fine, then the power went out. Now it's *unabably* slow. The OS takes a long time to load, the simple calculator takes a few minutes to show up, Firefox doesn't even load at all before I give up. And it won't shut down normally. I have to use the power button.
So did the power outage fry somthing on my PC. Do I have ot replace RAM or the processor? Or is it a software issue? Do I have to do something as drastic as a reimage?

I am experiencing poor performance when using cifs share.Such poor performance occur only in the creation of files on the share but not in the rewrite.This is what i do:
Code:

# time dd if=/dev/zero of=/mnt/winshare/b.avi bs=1024 count=10000

I've got the Gnome front end installed and everything runs terribly slow. Now that I think about it, I'm not sure if its a problem with sdlmame or the Gnome front end.Is anyone successfully running MAME under FC14? If so, what did you have to do? Did you have a similar experience to mine? How did you correct it?

I just wiped my hp 6730b laptop after having done something that killed my previous fedora 14 install but now the graphics are all choppy. The previous install was a 12 to 14 upgrade that ran fine after only minor tinkering to straighten out some leftover stuff. The new one is a net-install of the 64bit version. But now X is all choppy and 2 processes seem to be using some cpu when X starts up: 'kondemand' and 'migration'. Eventually the screen will start to flicker but it'll keep running 'normally'. I am guessing that it is somehow related to the intel driver seeing how 3d (compiz) is not working either. So far all I changed is the default runlevel to 3 but it makes no difference if its in 5. I tried making a new config with X -config but then X does not start at all. system-config-display has been removed so I cant try fiddling with that either.
Hopefully all the required / useful info:
(there is no xorg.conf)

The kvm and qemu packages are integrated into a single package, but this doesn't mean qemu is integrated into the kernel now in any way does it? I should still install kqemu to the the performance improvements, right?

I need evaluate the ext3 file system performance; i need define:
- services provided
- parameters and
- the performance with different parameter values; for example, changin the value of the "data" parameter (journal, ordered, writeback).
I do not know what services ext3 provides. Well, i know intuitively that it provides services to read, write and erase files. But, there are anything more?. Where can i find the API?. Is the ext3 file system POSIX compliant?

It's been a while now I've been experiencing an annoying issue with F12. The thing is that after the machine resumes from suspend (which is otherwise a perfect procedure), video performance (and sometimes audio, through Rhythmbox) reduces and videos play sluggishly. Rebooting the system fixes the issue.
Is there a solution for this behavior (other than rebooting)? Here are the details of my system: F12 x86_64 on an ATI graphics powered machine (Radeon HD3200) which obviously uses the free drivers mesa-drivers-dri-experimental which, otherwise work perfect on this hardware.

Linux OS Version/Release: Red Hat Enterprise Linux Server release 5.5 (Tikanga) Linux <hostname> 2.6.18-194.8.1.el5 #1 SMP Wed Jun 23 10:52:51 EDT 2010 x86_64 x86_64 x86_64 GNU/Linux I have a server that hosts 30+ Oracle databases. Each database has its own set of scripts that shuts down the database and start the database. Things has been working "smoothly" in the last couple of months until this week.
My log in most cases shows errors like the ones below:cannot fork [Resource temporarily unavailable] Connection reset by peer I am 100% sure that the scripts are not at fault since it has been working with no errors for months. I want to monitor the server for what resource or configurations I have to tweak to get around this problem if possible, am I exceeding my ulimit settings running out of process,out of memory/swap space etc?
I wish I could stay up 24x7 to monitor to monitor the server but I can't. Can anyone please advise if there is any monitoring script available somewhere that I can put in cron to temporarily monitor the server for resource issues, for example memory used/left, swap space used/left, ulimit-num-process used/left, nofiles used/left etc.

My wireless was connecting fine, but it was impossible to browse with. So, after searching around for a while I found a thread where it said to enter this and reboot.
#echo "net.ipv4.tcp_moderate_rcvbuf=0" >> /etc/sysctl.conf
#echo "net.ipv4.tcp_default_win_scale=0" >> /etc/sysctl.conf
But after entering that and re booting, now I cant even connect to the wireless. It says connecting but times out.

On F13 i386 inside Virtualbox. Host is a Win7 x64 box.
This may just be more idle curiosity than anything else since the server still works. . . but it's really bothering me because I can't explain it.
My (limited) understanding is that the devel files are just the source files and shouldn't actually affect peformance.
Yet, prior to installing httpd-devel (and its dependencies), /etc/init.d/httpd restart takes about 2 seconds total. After installing httpd-devel, the "stopping" phase of the httpd restart take 5-7 seconds (which seems really long when you're just sitting there waiting on it.
yum install httpd-devel also installs the following for dependencies:
db4-cxx
db4-devel
cyrus-sasl-devel
apr-devel
apr-util-devel
openldap-devel
expat-devel
All but one of those are devel files as well. And here's the real kicker: Uninstalling them through YUM doesn't put things back to normal (even after reboot).
I'm no linux expert. But I wouldn't think installing devel files would have this effect or any effect like this since they're just source code files (?). Can anyone explain what's happening or give me tips on how I can watch the apache process stop and see what's hanging it up?
