Bug#399204: Newer Via Unichrome Pro cards and support options
Hello, The Default xserver-xorg-video-via driver is not supporting my video card on ASUS P5VDC-MX with VIA Unichrome Pro .(P4M800Pro) below is my lspci grepped: 01:00.0 VGA compatible controller: VIA Technologies, Inc. UniChrome Pro IGP (rev 01) (prog-if 00 [VGA]) Subsystem: ASUSTeK Computer Inc. Unknown device 3344 Flags: bus master, 66MHz, medium devsel, latency 64, IRQ 20 Memory at d800 (32-bit, prefetchable) [size=64M] Memory at fd00 (32-bit, non-prefetchable) [size=16M] Expansion ROM at feaf [disabled] [size=64K] Capabilities: For Now,I use Openchrome.org drivers.my card is detected as: as in Xorg.log in Ubuntu: (II) VIA: driver for VIA chipsets: CLE266, KM400/KN400, K8M800, PM800/PM880/CN400, VM800/CN700/P4M800Pro (II) Primary Device is: PCI 01:00:0 (--) Chipset VM800/CN700/P4M800Pro found ^ with Openchrome drivers. So pls include the support for these unichrome pro cards,as newbie Debian users and geeks alike struggle to get these cards working,as for now the only option is "vesa" driver.Hope this be fixed. -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to [EMAIL PROTECTED] with a subject of "unsubscribe".

It uses XCB which raises some problems, at least with Java, and probably also in some other applications. Your problem doesn't look similar to the usual XCB assertions, but just in case, could you try after downgrading libx11-6 1.0.3 from unstable? Brice I also found that i can play gmplayer(only this app) by setting Video in preferences to X11 rather than Xv(i suppose the normal better driver) -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to [EMAIL PROTECTED] with a subject of "unsubscribe".

Multimedia apps crashes with libxcb esp xine,gmplayer
Hello, I have to report this again as i cant play any multimedia Video using Xine,Mplayer etc from a month.I am using latest Xorg of Debian Experimental repo+Unstable. below are the info: Package: libxcb1 Source: libxcb Version: 1.0-1.2 When i ran gstreamer-properties to change Video,it also crashed error msgs: [EMAIL PROTECTED]:~$ gstreamer-properties --sync gstreamer-properties-Message: Skipping unavailable plugin 'artsdsink' gstreamer-properties-Message: Skipping unavailable plugin 'pulsesink' gstreamer-properties-Message: Skipping unavailable plugin 'sdlvideosink' gstreamer-properties-Message: Skipping unavailable plugin 'v4lmjpegsrc' gstreamer-properties-Message: Skipping unavailable plugin 'qcamsrc' gstreamer-properties-Message: Skipping unavailable plugin 'esdmon' gstreamer-properties-Message: Skipping unavailable plugin 'pulsesrc' The program 'gstreamer-properties' received an X Window System error. This probably reflects a bug in the program. The error was 'BadAccess (attempt to access private resource denied)'. (Details: serial 55 error_code 10 request_code 141 minor_code 19) (Note to programmers: normally, X errors are reported asynchronously; that is, you will receive the error a while after causing it. To debug your program, run it with the --sync command line option to change this behavior. You can then get a meaningful backtrace from your debugger if you break on the gdk_x_error() function.) Hope this get fixed.I am using openchrome driver for via unichrome cards. -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to [EMAIL PROTECTED] with a subject of "unsubscribe". Trouble? Contact [EMAIL PROTECTED]

But my question was "why is this driver not in freedesktop.org as other drivers do?". Being in other distributions does not mean it can/should be in Debian. Lots of distrib include lots of crappy packages. License issues as well as being unstable could be a good reason to keep this driver outside of Debian. Right now, we have no idea whether this driver is stable or not. At least, if it was with X.org on freedesktop.org, it would guarantee that the license and stability are not too bad, and it will make our job very easy since we already ship lots of drivers from freedesktop.org. If it is not possible for this driver to go to freedesktop.org, you need to either find somebody to package it and upload it in Debian (but he will ask the same questions about license and stability), or ask the developers on openchrome.org to talk to Debian. hello,thanks for clarifying that,hopefully this driver(s ) will enter freedesktop.org and i dont know about the licencing terms :( > I tried to pinpoint what error i am getting for the reason of system > hangs and X crashes. > the error i got while booting into the Debian Sid system is shown below: > > Apr 26 14:41:05 localhost kernel: Linux agpgart interface v0.101 (c) > Dave Jones > Apr 26 14:41:05 localhost kernel: via_agp: Unknown symbol agp_bridge > Apr 26 14:41:05 localhost kernel: via_agp: Unknown symbol > agp3_generic_sizes > Apr 26 14:41:05 localhost kernel: via_agp: Unknown symbol > global_cache_flush > Apr 26 14:41:05 localhost kernel: via_agp: Unknown symbol > agp_generic_enable > Apr 26 14:41:05 localhost kernel: via_agp: Unknown symbol > agp_generic_insert_memory > Apr 26 14:41:05 localhost kernel: via_agp: Unknown symbol > agp_generic_destroy_page > Apr 26 14:41:05 localhost kernel: via_agp: Unknown symbol agp_off > Apr 26 14:41:05 localhost kernel: via_agp: Unknown symbol > agp_remove_bridge > Apr 26 14:41:05 localhost kernel: via_agp: Unknown symbol > agp_generic_mask_memory > Apr 26 14:41:05 localhost kernel: via_agp: Unknown symbol > agp_generic_alloc_by_type > Apr 26 14:41:05 localhost kernel: via_agp: Unknown symbol > agp_generic_free_by_type > Apr 26 14:41:05 localhost kernel: via_agp: Unknown symbol > agp_alloc_bridge > Apr 26 14:41:05 localhost kernel: via_agp: Unknown symbol agp_add_bridge > Apr 26 14:41:05 localhost kernel: via_agp: Unknown symbol get_agp_version > Apr 26 14:41:05 localhost kernel: via_agp: Unknown symbol > agp_generic_remove_memory > Apr 26 14:41:05 localhost kernel: via_agp: Unknown symbol > agp_generic_create_gatt_table > Apr 26 14:41:05 localhost kernel: via_agp: Unknown symbol > agp_generic_free_gatt_table > Apr 26 14:41:05 localhost kernel: via_agp: Unknown symbol > agp_generic_alloc_page > Apr 26 14:41:05 localhost kernel: via_agp: Unknown symbol agp_put_bridge Looks like you need to load agpgart before loading the via_agp module. thx.i'll try loading agpgart first using /etc/modules file or maybe i need to edit some /etc/rcX.d file? > Apr 26 14:41:05 localhost kernel: agpgart: Detected VIA VT3314 chipset > Apr 26 14:41:05 localhost kernel: agpgart: AGP aperture is 128M @ > 0xf000 > Apr 26 14:41:05 localhost kernel: PCI: Enabling device :02:01.0 > ( -> 0002) (instead of loading it after).

The real question is why doesn't this driver go with the others on freedesktop.org? It would be better for us to have all drivers there if we want to be sure everything is sync'ed and maintained...

OpenChrome support for Debian Sid+experimental
Hello Debian X strike force, I've got computers with via unichrome pro graphics chipset(Asus mobo) running Debian.for the time my option is to set vesa driver as xserver-xorg-video-via doesnot support this card yet.I have my main PC running Debian bleeding edge packages (sid apt-pinned with experimental repo).I compiled openchrome-->http://openchrome.org and installed,got it supported but my X often crashes and hangs lock up.So please have an openchrome deb in ur repos for many ppl using and wants to use Debian(no ubuntu!). Azureus crashes with the latest xcb lib.I've sun j2re 1.6 installed.hope this too get fixed.Thx for your work. regards and best of Luck, Prakash Jose Kokkattu -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to [EMAIL PROTECTED] with a subject of "unsubscribe".
