Is there no glamor package in 13.2? I have a Radeon R7 240 (Southern Islands) which requires glamor for 2D accelaration. But can’t find any gamor packages for 13.2.
Glamor is part of the X server itself now.
From the changelog of xorg-x11-server:
* Don Jul 17 2014 tobias.johannes.klausmann@mni.thm.de- Update to version 1.16.0 (final):
+ Glamor integration. This GL-based X acceleration subsystem now
offers reasonable performance that avoids software fall backs much
of the time.
Okay, thanks !
Since the upgrade to 13.2 (new install) fonts in some applications are garbled. The graphic card is a Radeon A7 240. The applications most severly affected are Firefox and Evolution. Interestingly, when I increase font sizes, the garbage disappears. Only to reappear after a while. I then need to decrease font-sizes. What on earth can cause this problem???
The problem seems to be sorted. I activated the XOrg repo and run an upgrade. Now everything appears to be fine, no more garbled fonts and the desktop is more responsive, too.
