01:14 <tpw_rules> winter: released a new update and mpv -vo=gpu works fine with it. in fact it is the default

01:14 <tpw_rules> not sure if it didn't work fine with the old update

01:14 <tpw_rules> i also tested glmark2 and got very low numbers, but they are still 80% faster than cpu. i imagine there is a non-implemented path falling back to software, or a high fixed overhead in some case

01:53 <zzywysm> tpw_rules: you did a release faster than i could submit another pull request :D

06:00 <winter> tpw_rules: I'll test `-vo=gpu` on the latest Mesa commit, cheers. Still need to look into that weird Sway/DPI thing, though.

06:00 <winter> Also, wrt glmark: interesting.

06:00 <winter> jannau said that very low numbers are unexpected, hm.

06:32 <tpw_rules> i am using xfce as my desktop manager. could possibly be a bad interaction with that. also bear in mind i am on m1 max, i seem to recall there are some differences

09:29 <jannau> do you see the those low scores under X11? I'm only testing with drm/(x)wayland. can you try an off-screen benchmark? I get with `glmark2-es2-wayland -s 1920x1080 --off-screen` a score off 2171 on 24 GPU core M1 Max

10:52 <mps> hm, https://gitlab.freedesktop.org/xorg/xserver/-/merge_requests/1006 is merged to xorg

10:52 <mps> 'modesetting: add support for TearFree page flips'

17:11 <tpw_rules> _jannau_: with glmark2-es2 -s 1920x1080 --off-screen i get a score of 2289 on 32 gpu core m1 max. i assume the extra 8 cores are pretty idle given the simplicity of the scenes. but that is much better than the 759 with the defaults.

17:12 <tpw_rules> wayland was being cranky on my system

17:15 <tpw_rules> winter: incidentally i was trying to get sway to do something useful (suspect i need to read the manual and create a config) and i noticed it went into hidpi mode the first time i started it but not the subsequent times

19:03 <jannau> tpw_rules: can you try with weston for testing or glmark2-es2-drm from a tty

19:04 <tpw_rules> i could not get glmark2-es2-drm to go from a VT, it complained about failing to initialize something. do i have to do it remotely over ssh? i made sure to stop my display server first. i can grab the exact message but it felt like user error

19:08 <tpw_rules> i'm not sure intuitively what the prerequisites are for something to work properly with DRM. maybe this explains why wayland wouldn't work properly either

19:14 <jannau> tpw_rules: it should work but is not useful since it is vsynced

19:15 <tpw_rules> then i'm not sure what the difference is between a tty or a VT. i mean like doing ctrl+alt+f2

19:19 <jannau> I ment from a VT

19:34 <ashi> Regarding "slow" glmark, comparing the very first test of "glmark2" (800x600 windowing) of my i3-7100U and 8 Core M2 MBA it is a 3050 vs 1500 win for the Intel GPU. both running debian testing latest. Other tests were similar iirc. So, yes, could be faster but stable and fast enough for a lot of tasks already.

19:39 <ashi> both wayland gnome, tried to make this as "fair" as possible
