It is not as unusable as it was when I couldn't type anymore, but everything gets definitely very slow after a restart of X or after switching to a vty and back. Didn't try suspend/resume though.

Hi. I still have problems with a very slow display after logging out of an XI'm going to try and work on getting better debugging info from the
session and/or switching VTYs. The problem goes away if I add
hw.pci.enable_msi=0 to /boot/loader.conf.
Last csupped Mar 26 09:49 CET.
System is Dell optiplex 745. Has built-in Intel Graphics Media Accelerator 950
Anything I can do to help solve this problem?
intel driver. I don't have access to any newer Intel hardware at the
moment, so testing is tricky.
There is a tuneable for just msi on drm hw.drm.msi.

logging in again, everything was slow as hell.
I didn't fiddle with the msi settings, just rebooted the machine, and
everything is fine again.
So there must be something that works the first time X is started, but
upon restart stuffs up. Like some lock or reference which is not freed.
This is a different issue, I was trying to look into that a little bit
yesterday, but it kinda works on this 915 that I have, so I haven't
isolated what is getting messed up. Again, vt switch, suspend/resume
are in the same ballpark, restart is not.

I have been switching to the vty at which I started X in order to
terminate X. If I try to terminate X while I'm in it, it just "hangs"
-- I have to switch to the vty, ctrl-c it, wait, then blindly key in a
reboot to get my system back up. IIRC, this started happening after I
upgraded to Xorg 7.4.
I thought that Mattia might be doing the same thing as a work-around
for the freezing intel-driven display thing, thus the X-to-vty switch
"fix" of disabling msi...

The controller says it's a: Intel Q35 SVGA controller.
Maybe it's of interest that the machine is a HP Compaq dc7800 Convertible Minitower...
Thanks for looking into the problem - tell me if/how i can help with debugging (there are a couple of FreeBSD users with this same canfiguration here which will be very happy about a well working FreeBSD 8 release :-))
