Re: [Dri-users] Stuck with FC4 / i915 Graphics
There is no need to tweak "xorg.cf" in order to build experimental DRI drivers. This is easily done in "xorg.spec" by adding "savage" to "DevelDRIDrivers" and setting "#define BuildDevelDRIDrivers YES" > btw, the site is updated ! :) > http://sergiomb.no-ip.org/xorg/xorgRC3 --- This SF.net email is sponsored by: Splunk Inc.

This statement is a little confuse, you update Fedora with yum and build rpms with xorg-x11-6.8.99.902 sources is that it ? -- Sérgio M.B. smime.p7s Description: S/MIME cryptographic signature
Re: [Dri-users] Stuck with FC4 / i915 Graphics
Your snapshot is completely outdated. It is from July 2005 whereas we are at 6.8.99.903 right now. This may cause the problems that you are reporting. Try to rebuild the RPM packages using: http://xorg.freedesktop.org/snapshots/xorg-x11-6.8.99.903.tar.bz2 Some patches might have been applied upstream and can be dropped now. Your kernel DRM however seens to be up to date. > > Ok, here is what I have installed: Fedora Core 4, Updated using Yum, > Using xorg-x11-6.8.99.14-3 from here > (http://sergiomb.no-ip.org/xorg/xorgRC2/ - followed the instructions > on that page to install it).

Re: [Dri-users] Stuck with FC4 / i915 Graphics
This is the second report of an i810 user getting a black screen. In both cases the server log files submitted are incomplete. Something is going wrong here, but I don't know what it is. Can anyone familiar with the i810 driver comment? Lilian, Steph: could you provide one more data-point? When you started X and the screen is blank, can you switch virtual consoles or log in via ssh and check if the Xserver is still running (ps aux | grep X). The incomplete log files make me believe that the Xserver may be dying a rather horrible death for some reason in the middle of the driver initialization.
