Re: [nouveau] gentoo ebuild masked by a missing keyword
Well, after solving Gentoo-specific masking issues (thanks to folks who replied!), libdrm pulled by nouveau fails to build due to the build's own issues -- is that Gentoo ebuild of nouveau maintained? The references to the ebuilds are on the wiki, hence I hope it's fair to ask. I pulled it with layman -a nouveau. Cheers, Alexy - Take Surveys. Earn Cash.

[nouveau] gentoo ebuild masked by a missing keyword
Am trying to emerge xf86-video-nouveau, emerge tells me it's masked by a missing keyword. Googling reports it's a dreaded message, can be solved by adding the package to /etc/portage/package.keywords as x11-drivers/xf86-video-nouveau * -- here I deduce from examples, with * or ~* trailing. Doesn't work still. How do I unmask it properly? Cheers, Alexy - Take Surveys. Earn Cash.

[nouveau] a million little pieces affecting nvidia drivers
When trying to make nvidia drivers sleep, and then later get nouveau to work, I got hopelessly confused about various pieces of video hardware/software and their mutual entanglements. I'd much appreciates if one of you esteemed video sages takes a few steps towards deconfusion. The TLAs floating in this soup are AGP DRI DRM Obviously, we need a new DRM driver for nouveau as it says to compile it. This installs library libdrm.so -- who uses it? We're talking of DRM, while X refers to DRI? Then there's a whole framebuffer dimension. Various reports suggest to use vesafb-tng driver instead of the standard vesafb. Thus, it interacts with nvidia drivers -- how? I see Xorg.0.log referring to the framebuffer... And we also have nvidiafb driver. Can/should it be used with the free nv/nouveau Xorg driver? In addition, there's the vbetool utility and Option VBERestore -- how do those interact with framebuffer/nouveau? so here's the rest of the list: agp drivers glx drivers/libs libdrm.so -- vesafb vesafb-tng nvidiafb -- vbetool Which of these work together must be taken care of for running and accelerating nv/nouveau properly?

[nouveau] compilation warnings, logs
Additional info on my non-working nouveau: -- followed wiki howto -- pulled git repos for drm and nouveau only -- did pull/rebuild just now, after autogen.sh also did ./configure --prefix=/usr, so that libdrm.so and nouveau_drv.so are deposited into the expected locations right away However, when compiling in xf86-video-nouveau, there's a lot of warnings (see make-nouveau output in the attached tarball). They're mostly about undeclared CARD32 -- perhaps that's the problem? I also included the last complete kernel log and Xorg log in the tar.

accelerating horizontal scroll on nvidia -- nouveau
Greetings -- I'm trying to accelerate horizontal scroll on nvidia GeForce 2 Go with free nv driver(s), and wonder whether nouveau is the solution -- with its 2D acceleration. The rationale is this: I am installing and configuring Linux on a tablet PC, Compaq TC1000. I've managed most everything to work. One of the best things you can do with a tablet is to read the web in vertical mode. The native nvidia drivers support randr and scroll fast in the rotated mode. However, binary nvidia drivers can't hibernate, which is a non-starter for my mobile usage. The free nv driver supports randr as well, but landscape scrolling is slow. While trying to make binary nvidia drivers to fall asleep, I've disabled all AGP, and now wonder what's the right way to enable it back for the free nv driver. Also -- does vesafb have anything to do with it? I enabled vesafb-tng instead of the standard vesafb as it's more conducive of hibernation. There's also an nvidiafb module, and I wonder how that interacts with X, if at all. But since nouveau says it focuses on 2D, I tried to configure it -- getting git clone just now -- and got this: -- first autogen.sh run -- complains about AC_DISABLE_STATIC and something else; -- second time: [EMAIL PROTECTED]:/s/c/git/nouveau/mesa/drm ./autogen.sh autoreconf: Entering directory `.' autoreconf: configure.ac: not using Gettext autoreconf: running: aclocal autoreconf: configure.ac: tracing autoreconf: configure.ac: not using Libtool autoreconf: running: /usr/bin/autoconf autoreconf: running: /usr/bin/autoheader autoreconf: running: automake --add-missing --copy --no-force libdrm/Makefile.am:21: Libtool library used but `LIBTOOL' is undefined libdrm/Makefile.am:21: libdrm/Makefile.am:21: The usual way to define `LIBTOOL' is to add `AC_PROG_LIBTOOL' libdrm/Makefile.am:21: to `configure.ac' and run `aclocal' and `autoconf' again. autoreconf: automake failed with exit status: 1 In fact I see AC_PROG_LIBTOOL is defined in configure.ac. I have automake 1.9.6. Is drm version-dependent, or I need some more mesa components or something else? Cheers, Alexy - Take Surveys. Earn Cash.
