6.2/i386 X/DRI issues

2007-05-30 Thread freebsd
Hi All

Installed FreeBSD i386, Rel 6.2 on a machine thats got an i945 chipset on 
the motherboard, integrated video too. Everything seems to be supported, 
SATA controllers the lot... but no AGP or DRM support?

i have the statements

device  agp
device  drm
device  i915drm

in my kernel conf, after building the new kernel.

dmesg |grep agp
dmesg |grep drm

Returns absolutely nothing

The i945 has been around for a while now.. Whats missing here? the actual 
motherboard has the video card integrated. This motherboard has no AGP 
slot on it, only PCI-E for a video card. I am not sure whether the onboard
integrated graphics is wired into AGP or PCI-E

Would this make a difference? is there any workaround/solution?

And yes, the whole point is to get DRI working in X.

Cheers
Alex

Have the same problem with via PT880 and Radeon 9600XT (AGP 8X card).
When I kldload drm, I see this in dmesg

May 26 15:02:24 hansolo kernel: error: [drm:pid877:radeon_cp_init]
*ERROR* radeon_cp_init called without lock held

This does not seem to be the case for me. As an experiment, I booted from a 
7-CURRENT CD and installed it (May snapshot) and it was detected! But not in 
6.2/i386. Its detected as AGP, though the machine has no AGP slot in it?!?!?

6.2-what?  You are probably running Release;  you don't have Stable unless you've updated 
source and re-compiled everything.  Stable is really a few steps ahead of release, with 
additional features and fixes, believed to be, uhh "stable" but not really 
recommended for production servers.  Stable it the next Release in the making.

You're right.. And my fault for assuming Release/Stable meant the same thing.. 
My bad..

"FreeBSD 6.2-RELEASE"

So I need to 'stable' for DRI to work. If the issue with DRI on the i945 was 
fixed some time ago, as someone else suggested, why hasn't it been merged into 
6.2-Release? Is there any patch to fix this for 6.2-RELEASE?

Thanks
Alex

S'ok...  it's quite confusing.  I only grasped it in the last year or so.

So I need to 'stable' for DRI to work. If the issue with DRI on the 
i945 was fixed some time ago, as someone else suggested, why hasn't 
it been merged into 6.2-Release? Is there any patch to fix this for 
6.2-RELEASE?


The release engineering philosophy seems to be that the actual 
"Release" versions are designed with stability and security 
foremost.  The patches that come out are usually ONLY for security 
issues.  Merges and enhancements to Release are, by definition, what 
Stable is.  You just need to install the source, cvsup it, and 
rebuild everything.  I put off messing with it for many years, and 
just put up with out of date systems;  but it's really not as hairy 
as it sounds.  See the handbook entry:

http://www.freebsd.org/doc/en_US.ISO8859-1/books/handbook/cutting-edge.html

Also see the appendix entry for cvs release tags.

Because 6.2-RELEASE had already been, ahem, 'released' at the time the fix was 
in place.

> Is there any patch to fix this for 6.2-RELEASE?

sure, update your src tree and rebuild your kernel and world (and install them 
:) ). 

and, just in case, you can find how to do that here:

Follow the instructions carefully, and it's not as scary as it
sounds.  (You will need a backup ... but you have one of those
already right?)

it actually  isn't that hard - just issue the commands, let it build and

i did a bit of googling, apparently some changes have been made with the

What does /var/log/Xorg.0.log tell you about it?

glxinfo is not there at all anymore.

it's in the archives of the list - you need to install the mesa-demos port.

X actually starts ok. Just don't know if DRI is enabled cos of the glxinfo 
issue.
I haven't installed gnome or kde yet. I wanted to get DRI sorted out before I 
start.

Installed it.

But thats because I am ssh'd into the box from work, I dare say it will work 
when I get home and test from within X.
You are a champion :-) Thank you!

( X forwarding over ssh to your local display ..? I am just not sure whether 
glxinfo calculations would be based on your remote display or your local 
one)

> You are a champion :-) Thank you!
nw :)

btw, the Xorg.0.log snippet you sent previously looks good. Usually, when X 
tries to enable DRI and it fails to, you'll see a line like "DRI Disabled" 
(after all the other DRI info).

Installed it.

[EMAIL PROTECTED] ~]$ glxinfo
Error: unable to open display

But thats because I am ssh'd into the box from work, I dare say it will work 
when I get home and test from within X.


( X forwarding over ssh to your local display ..? I am just not sure whether 
glxinfo calculations would be based on your remote display or your local 
one)



glxinfo over X-forward will report on the display the client is drawing 
on - X clients are not aware of any other displays unless explicitly 
instructed (e.g. glxinfo -display localhost:0), and even then you'll 
have to fight xauth.


Incidentally, you can never do direct rendering over remote X connection 
because the client (which is executed on a remote system) does not have 
direct access to the memory of the display.
