Bug#422777: xserver-xorg: MergedFB CRT2 Clone stopped working after reboot
Package: xserver-xorg
Version: 1:7.2-3
Severity: normal
Hi,
When I rebooted my laptop (Apple iBook G4) this morning, the second
screen remained blank. The Xorg.0.log config file shows No valid
mode found for CRTC2, disabling MergedFB. I haven't changed my
xorg.conf since 2006-11-21, so I'm pretty sure it's related to a
recent Xorg update. I can't be sure which one since I may have
updated Xorg more than once between reboots (and rarely restart X
other than on reboot). I am however quite sure I haven't installed,
removed or reconfigured Xorg packages recently other than during
aptitude upgrades or aptitude dist-upgrades. Also, I rebooted
sometime in the last two weeks without problems, so it must be a
problem with a recent Xorg update. [yes, I aptitude up{date,grade}
more or less weekly]
I hope someone can help me out here, since I have no idea whatsoever
how to fix this (other than attempting some Xorg downgrades, but
that's hardly fixing). If there's anything I can do myself (that
doesn't involve intimate knowledge of Xorg internals), please let me
know.
- Felix

Some similar breakage have been reported with the old ATI driver and the
new xserver-xorg-core 1.3. You could possibly try upgrading
xserver-xorg-video-ati to the one currently in experimental
(1:6.6.191-1). However, in the end it might be better to wait for the
next official release of the ATI driver before upgrading to
xserver-xorg-core 1.3.

Bug#372079: DVI on G550, some bad news, some good news
From upstream IRC channel: me: Is the DVI output supposed to work on a MGA G550? We've got multiple complaints that it never worked (apparently the driver sends out-of-range frequencies). = I believe it requires mga_hal me: That's what these users are doing, yes = There's a workaround, enable matroxfb. If your dfp goes black when you start X, shut it off and on manually me: Is there a chance it gets fixed one day? = I've got DVI support in the randr-1.2 branch, but it's not in a releasable state yet me: No need to report then, just wait = yes So, you might want to try enabling matroxfb in your kernel and console. FYI, XRandR 1.2 is new shiny feature that driver developers are implementing these days, it makes management of multiple heads much easier and better. So, there might be good news in the future.

It's still a 2.4.27 kernel, though. And I did experience that blank screen from time to time (not predictable), and powering the panel off did help indeed, but it was very annoying.

Perhaps there is a configuration which would work. I have quite strange mouse, two normal buttons, one extra button, one wheel-button. The extra button has number 6 (in xev output) with both modules. With the old version, wheel button (middle) is 2 and right is 3, and with the new version, wheel is 3 and right is 2.

Brice, Im using the Etch Stable release now on x86 hardware with the NVidia card, it seems to be ok... sometimes I get dramatic pauses in Icedove, but im not sure what app is responsible for that havent had a chance to profile it. I dont use unstable. Thanks for asking... I hope you find some good testers for this.

It happens only with x86_64 / AMD64 port, before I was using x86 port and all work fine, I have an EMT64 capable processor and runs debian great, all services works fine except xserver-xorg with driver i810, let me say that the error is just when unloading X... Using i810 driver I can use the Render, 3D accel,Composite Extension, Compiz etc but always when Shuts down the Computer I get a balnk screen with a Kernel Panic, I think to set the driver to VESA and works and shutdown without problems but haven´t DRI, 3D Accel,Composite etc. My Hardware is: - Celeron D 3.6 GHz EMT64 - ASRock 775i65G - Intel(r) 865G Chipset - Integrated Intel(r) Extreme Graphics 2 (intel 82865G Graphics) The error screen message wite some like: CODE** [8004cf10] thread_return+0x0/0xe7 [8004cf10] vsf_write+0xe1/0x174 [8004cf10] sys_write+0x45/0x6e [8004cf10] system_call+0x7e/0x83 Code: 4c 8b 20 48 89 c7 c4 89 63 40 ff 50 08 48 89 e8 89 ea 48 ff RIP [8028e424] __rcu_process_callbacks+0x115/0x1a8 RSP 8004cf10 CR2: 80a324c0 0 Kernel Panic - not syncing: Aiee, killing interrupt handler!

Bug#411877: marked as done (nv video driver garbles screen when I wake up)
Your message dated Tue, 8 May 2007 20:31:38 -0400 with message-id [EMAIL PROTECTED] and subject line Bug#411877: nv video driver garbles screen when I wake up has caused the attached Bug report to be marked as done. This means that you claim that the problem has been dealt with. If this is not the case it is now your responsibility to reopen the Bug report if necessary, and/or fix the problem forthwith. (NB: If you are a system administrator and have no idea what I am talking about this indicates a serious mail system misconfiguration somewhere. Please contact me immediately.) Debian bug tracking system administrator (administrator, Debian Bugs database) ---BeginMessage--- Package: xserver-xorg-video-nv Version: 1.2.0-3 Severity: normal Typically when I go to bed I close my laptop CRT screen. Sometimes when I wake up I open it to find that the screen is garbled; the left side is blank, and the right side shows some unusable colors... Some combination of c+a+f1, fn+f7 (font change), fn+f8 (crt/lcd switch) usually fixes it. The one case I can remember where it didn't fix it, I don't think I used fn+f8. This could also be a kernel problem, I guess I'll test by switching to a VT at night for a week. ---End Message--- ---BeginMessage--- Version: 1:1.2.0-3 On Tue, May 08, 2007 at 11:15:06PM +0200, Brice Goglin wrote: Hi Justin, A couple months ago, you reported a bug to the Debian BTS regarding the nv driver not rendering the screen correctly after reopening the lid. Did you reproduce this problem recently? Hello, Yes; I discovered that it has to do with power saving. I recall that if I used something like xset, I could trigger the problem on demand. Now (after upgrading and then downgrading), I can't reproduce it even in the old version. With the latest xserver-xorg-video-nv driver 2.0.2 in unstable? Let's consider it closed. Thanks Justin ---End Message---

I suggest you try with another kernel, either older (to see whether it's a regression) and more recent (to see if it has been fixed, for instance with upcoming 2.6.22-rc1). If it's not fixed yet, you should send all this information to the Linux kernel mailing list. Once the kernel problem is fixed, we'll see if there's something to fix in the X server too :) Brice -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to [EMAIL PROTECTED] with a subject of unsubscribe. Trouble?

Bug#370141: X crashing on PCI-e 7900GTX
On 08 May 2007, Brice Goglin wrote: About a year ago, you reported a bug to the Debian BTS regarding a crash of the X server on a nVidia 7900GTX board. Did you reproduce this problem recently? With Xorg/Etch? Just for the sake of completeness, I will test the nv driver when I get home in the morning. I've used the nvidia driver itself for years now but at the time I was fiddling around with the open source driver instead for whatever reason. I'll reply back to this bug report shortly to let you know if it's all working. Most likely it is now that the cards have been out awhile and Xorg is maturing nicely. -- Mark Nippere-contacts: 4320 Milam Street [EMAIL PROTECTED] Bryan, Texas 77801-3920 http://nipsy.bitgnome.net/ (979)575-3193 AIM/Yahoo: texasnipsy ICQ: 66971617 -BEGIN GEEK CODE BLOCK- Version: 3.1 GG/IT d- s++:+ a- C++$ UBL$ P---+++ L+++$ !E--- W++(--) N+ o K++ w(---) O++ M V(--) PS+++(+) PE(--) Y+ PGP t+ 5 X R tv b+++@ DI+(++) D+ G e h r++ y+(**) --END GEEK CODE BLOCK-- ---begin random quote of the moment--- Never underestimate the bandwidth of a station wagon filled with magtape, or a 747 filled with CD-ROMs. -- from the Jargon File's definition of sneakernet end random quote of the moment -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to [EMAIL PROTECTED] with a subject of unsubscribe.
