Bug#608594: spring exits with error "drmRadeonCmdBuffer: -22"

[Felix Hagemann]

Package: spring
Version: 0.82.6.1+dfsg1-1
Severity: important
Tags: experimental

When trying to start a game with "Test the game" some status messages
appear (loading this, initialising that) and then spring exits with an
error message:
drmRadeonCmdBuffer: -22. Kernel failed to parse or rejected command
stream. See dmesg for more info.

dmesg says:
[  234.282985] [drm:r100_cs_track_check] *ERROR* [drm] No buffer for z
buffer !
[  234.282992] [drm:radeon_cs_ioctl] *ERROR* Invalid command stream !
[  419.540963] [drm:r100_cs_track_check] *ERROR* [drm] No buffer for z
buffer !
[  419.540970] [drm:radeon_cs_ioctl] *ERROR* Invalid command stream !
[  467.032293] [drm:r100_cs_track_check] *ERROR* [drm] No buffer for z
buffer !
[  467.032300] [drm:radeon_cs_ioctl] *ERROR* Invalid command stream !

Googling doesn't provide further insights for me, but I suspect some
issue with the video driver and OpenGL. Please reassign if appropriate.

Regards,
Felix
