Re: Does KMS work with gen 2 Intel graphics on FreeBSD 9.1?

It seems that KMS is indeed not enabled. VT switching works and the driver 
loaded is just
i915. Thanks for your help!

Does KMS work with gen 2 Intel graphics on FreeBSD 9.1?

2013-09-10 Thread Vladyslav Shtabovenko
Hi,

I'm running FreeBSD 9.1 on an old IBM Thinkad X30 equiped with
Intel 830MG graphics chip (gen 2). The graphics works fine, but I'm
wondering
if the driver really uses KMS or just switches back to some legacy routine.

Is there any way I can check it?

Cheers,
Vladyslav

The only way to have KMS support in 9.1 right now is to build with
WITH_NEW_XORG=true and WITH_KMS=true in your make.conf, do you have
these flags enabled?

Another good check (right now) is to switch to a text console VT
switching is not enabled so the screen will stay black 
(See https://wiki.freebsd.org/Intel_GPU)

You will also have i915kms.ko loaded

I am not a X11 dev, I just use the driver day to day so sorry I can't
give you a better technical answer!

I see. Currently I'm using the stock 9.1 release kernel. It is rather
painful to compile something on that laptop (Pentium M with ~1 GHz).

I'll have access to the machine only this Friday. Then I'll check the 
thing with the text console. Thanks!

Hi,

depending on what you want to do, GIMP (pixel oriented) and INKSCAPE 
(vector oriented) will be the tools of your choice.

Look in /usr/ports/graphics for applications that you can automatically
install; Read Chapter 4 of the FreeBSD Handbook;
http://www.freebsd.org/doc/en_US.ISO8859-1/books/handbook/ports.html 

- gimp  pixel-oriented image manipulation
- ImageMagick   commandline pixel-oriented image manipulation
- blender   3D images creation
- dcraw using RAW images from digital cameras
- sane  scanner interface
- povrayraytracer
