Re: [OpenIndiana-discuss] Selecting wrong video driver
/var/log/Xorg.0.log should have information on what config files the X server read, what devices it actually found, and what decisions it made on which driver to use for them. It would have to be a very old motherboard to have an Intel graphics chip that's not part of an Intel CPU - they merged them into a single unit years ago. But X won't assume an nvidia card based on the CPU, only on the PCI device ids it finds that match nvidia's vendor id. -alan- On 5/6/24 18:59, Rainer Heilke wrote: Hi. xrandr called it an Intel graphics card.

Re: [OpenIndiana-discuss] Selecting wrong video driver
Hi, nvidia and modesettings messages are not from X11 but rather from the kernel trying all drivers when It does not find a card. Note that we are not a FreeBSD based OS thus assumptions about the card simply working cannot be made. I am currently updating our libdrm version and then mesa and so on. If you can get me the pci id of your intel card from `prtconf -v` I can check if it is supported. Or if additional work will be required. That additional work being porting kernel bits from FreeBSD or other sources (our original driver is from linux) Stack updates are necesary anyway though as DRI support for and the userland parts are part of the mesa sources, which I am working on at the moment. Your Symptoms look like your card is simply not supported. Running the ddu utility from pkg:/diagnostic/ddu in the terminal should give further information. Using vesa as the driver should also help. -Till On 07.05.2024 07:41, Rainer Heilke wrote: Hello again. It seems like some emails are not getting through. I've been checking by watching the archives.

Ok, So with your GPU and generally VESA at least available the following is a set of checks you can do to get your bearings. Use `pkg list` to show a list of all installed packages. lightdm and x11 should be visible. `pkg list -a` shows all packages known the the system with additional filters applyable for source and publisher if needed. lightdm has a service and should be running. Check smf with the `svcs` utility to see the services and use `svcs -a` to see also disabled services. lightdm starts xorg. use `svcadm enable` to enable services and start them. -Till On 07.05.2024 21:56, Rainer Heilke wrote: I used the GUI disk, but now that you ask, it dropped down to text-only as well, and so I think maybe it only ran what the text installer would have done.
