RE: Bug#533450: psb and iegd

2010-01-18 Thread Kushal Koolwal

My experience with iegd driver was exactly opposite with Debian Lenny. It won't 
compile in the first place. May be I was using an older version of iegd driver? 
However the psb sources from Ubuntu Jaunty always worked for me on Lenny, 
Squeeze and Unstable with 3D working on Squeeze and Unstable.

A very disappointing scenario for Linux users.

If you are just installing from the pre-compiled packages you don't need 
modifications. Those packages should have everything that you need to get GMA 
working (I think).

I would be interested to know about your results.

Holger,

What kernel version are you using on Squeeze? The packages that I pointed you 
should work on 2.6.30 kernel on Squeeze.

As Julien suggested first get the kernel component working. Try the following 
to get the kernel component working:
# apt-get install linux-image-2.6-686 ; Just to make sure if you have the 
default kernel installed.

and then install the following package:

http://blogs.koolwal.net/wp-content/uploads/debian/packages/psb/xorg/psb-modules_4.41.1-1squeeze1_i386.deb

# dpkg -i psb-modules_4.41.1-1squeeze1_i386.deb

This will install modules in the default kernel:
debian-tablet:/home/kushalk# ls /lib/modules/2.6.30-2-686/updates/char/drm/
drm.ko  psb.ko

and then do the following:
# cd /lib/modules/2.6.30-2-686/updates/char/drm

# cp psb.ko drm.ko ../../../kernel/drivers/gpu/

# rm -rf ../../../kernel/driver/gpu/drm/

# depmod -ae

and then reboot and check your dmesg.

The above worked for me on a 2.6.30-2-686 kernel.

Hi Holger,

First of all many many thanks for taking the initiative on the PSB front. We 
all know that so far getting psb to work is a pain.

>but no real success so far..
As Adam asked, what problem are you facing? Are you able to build the psb and 
drm component?

Couple of weeks back I wrote a step-by-step guide [1] to get psb working on 
Debian Squeeze. Please give a shot to these pre-built squeeze packages [2] and 
see if they work for you or not. I have been able to build the driver against 
Lenny, Squeeze and Testing. 3D did not work in Lenny because of lack of dri2 (I 
think) in the Lenny's XOrg version.

Basically I took changes from Adam repo and added couple of more changes to get 
it working. For example, I had to remove the dpatch lines from debian/rules and 
added the relevant changes to file drm_sysfs.c directly. Also make sure that 
"Option Ignore ACPI 1" line is un-commented in xorg.conf.

Of course there are some ugly hacks as overwriting libdrm files and some odd 
symlinking to get them working as Adam mentioned. All these details are 
captured in [1].

I would be more than happy to extend any help that you may need in creating 
these packages for Debian.

Thanks.

Bug#512595: xserver-xorg-video-intel: LVDS screen goes blank on starting X server

2009-01-21 Thread Kushal Koolwal
Package: xserver-xorg-video-intel
Version: 2:2.3.2-2+lenny5
Severity: important

My graphic chipset is:
00:02.0 VGA compatible controller: Intel Corporation 82852/855GM Integrated 
Graphics Device (rev 02)

I primarily use a VGA monitor as my primary display device. Everything works 
fine with it. But as soon as I attached a secondary display device (a LVDS 
flat panel) the screen on LVDS goes blank as soon as X servers gets started 
(gdm kicks in). The VGA display is fine. Also as soon as I hit Alt-F1 to
switch to first console, the display on LVDS comes back.

I also noticed that this problem does not exits on 2.3.2-2+lenny4. Something 
got changed between 2.3.2-2+lenny4 and 2.3.2-2+lenny5 (the current one which
I am using). So if I copy the intel_drv.so from 2.3.2-2+lenny4 package to my 
/usr/lib/xorg/modules/drivers/ directory and restart my X, the screen on LVDS 
is restored properly.
