@naught101:I would suggest using the default intel drivers and mesa version 
with the default kernel as well, I think the new drivers should be used with 
the new kernel you were using, this is why I recommended them in the first 
place.
If you still have this bug with all the packages from the default Ubuntu 
repository you can file a new bug on Launchpad.

2013-11-10 Thread Marco Vuano
@naught101: this bug report originally was referring to Ubuntu 12.10 and
was later extended to Ubuntu 13.04, however I don't think it has yet
been extended to Ubuntu 13.10 (it is not mentioned in the table above).
Anyway, the bug is similar to the one I reported, but by watching the
Xorg log file, it seems that the intel driver is not found at all. Since
you are using a preliminary version of the 3.12 kernel, I would suggest
using the stable 3.12 version. Furthermore, you should use an up-to-date
xserver-xorg-video-intel package and mesa package (you can try the ones
from oibaf's repository) . Anyway, I suspect that the Catalyst driver
only supports the kernel and intel driver versions found in the Ubuntu
repositories.

2013-11-01 Thread Marco Vuano
@niniendowarrior:if you want to try the new dynamic power management on the 
open source drivers you should add
radeon.dpm=1
to the
GRUB_CMDLINE_LINUX_DEFAULT
line on the /etc/default/grub file and then run
sudo update-grub
as specified on https://help.ubuntu.com/community/RadeonDriver

You should probably also set the CPUfreq governor to Performance if
you need the maximum performance from the open source drivers(you can
use the cpufreq-set command or install the indicator-cpufreq
indicator).

@kpijarski: if you're using the drivers from the official Ubuntu
repositories, I suggest you to file a new bug here on Launchpad (using
ubuntu-bug should help you somewhat). If you are instead using the
drivers from AMD site you should file a bug on the unofficial ATI
bugzilla (http://ati.cchtml.com/). I think you should also try the open
source drivers, installing the glamor-egl package if it is not already
instaled and eventually enabling dynamic power management (follow the
instructions on https://help.ubuntu.com/community/RadeonDriver, which
should be the same as the one I suggested above), and see if the problem
persists.

@kpijarski: The bug niniendowarrior talked about is this
http://ati.cchtml.com/show_bug.cgi?id=848
I don't know how to solve your problem. I'm using the fglrx drivers version 
13.11 beta version 6 (2:13.250-0ubuntu1 on Ubuntu 12.10 64 bit)  and only the 
secondary monitor to have its full resolution and I'm fine, even when resuming 
from suspend mode.
Have you checked the cable you are using and if you are outputting a supported 
mode to your monitor? In case you don't see any supported modes on the 
Monitor window you should use xrandr and create a custom mode.

Anyway, no need to say that the new drivers don't show any regression
regarding the main bug here and the other bugs I mentioned.

You can find them using this link:

Sometimes AMD  allows downloading their drivers before the official page is up.

2013-09-19 Thread Marco Vuano
If you have the dual head bug with the drivers provided by the fglrx or the 
fglrx-updates package, the command to file a new bug should be
ubuntu-bug fglrx
(or fglrx-updates)
but if you are experiencing this bug only with the drivers downloaded from 
AMD's site then I think you should not file a new bug here on Launchpad (I 
apologize for providing incorrect information before).
Anyway, with the 13.9 drivers (2:13.152-0ubuntu1) there is no significant 
regression reagarding all the three bugs reported by me, and since they are not 
beta drivers I think they could be useful if offered through the fglrx-updates 
package, unless they have other important regressions.

With Catalyst 13.6 beta drivers (version 2:13.101-0ubuntu1) again this
bug seems to be solved (as in previous versions), but also the two other
bugs I mentioned (the one similar to bug #1088220 and the one reported

too. Now, if others don't report other important issues or regressions
with these drivers on Ubuntu 12.10, they could be nice drivers to have
in Ubuntu's 12.10 repository.

This is correct. Regarding the crash when iGPU is selected, since it is similar 
to Bug #1088220 I didn't report a new bug, but I can if you think it is useful, 
regarding the bug with XvBA, I reported it as bug 789 on the unofficial ATI 
Bugzilla, since the new drivers are apparently not available on the Ubuntu 
12.10 repositories.
The bug reported here is fixed by the new drivers.

[Bug 1068404] Re: Low graphics mode in muxless hybrid ATI/Intel GPU systems after fglrx upgrade

2013-02-28 Thread Marco Vuano
With Catalyst 13.2 beta7 (2:12.100-0ubuntu1) not much has changed (not even the 
version number!), so to sum it up:
-2D and 3D acceleration is mostly fine with both the iGPU and dGPU (at least 
Unity and some OpenGL appplications such as glxgears work correctly)
-XvBA seems to be broken (or the xvba-va-driver package no longer works 
correctly with the new driver)
-when using the iGPU the system crashes in a reproducible manner (this is 
described in  bug #1088220), if the dGPU is needed, then it is probably better 
to open a terminal after login and to enter

sudo amdconfig --px-dgpu

After system restart the dGPU should be in use (and probably the system
restart itself will result in a crash, because of the aforementioned
bug, however next time Ubuntu is booted, the dGPU should be used).
Sometimes restarting the X server by logging out after entering the
command is enough to switch.

P.S:: @Nick Andrik: I think the last comment of bug #1088220 was wrongly
posted there because the same comment is in this bug. Could you please
confirm this and eventually add a comment stating that the bug still
persists?

[Bug 1068404] Re: Low graphics mode in muxless hybrid ATI/Intel GPU systems after fglrx upgrade

2013-02-19 Thread Marco Vuano
In the 13.2 beta 6 drivers (2:12.100-0ubuntu1) the situation is more or less 
the same as that with the beta 3 drivers, the periodic crashes of the Xserver 
when using the iGPU are there as well. 
However, I noted that with the 13.2 beta drivers (both version 3 and 6) XvBA 
seems to be broken:
when using XvBA for VA API (adding LIBVA_DRIVER_NAME=xvba in /etc/environment) 
vainfo makes the X server crash and restart with the following message:

libva: VA-API version 0.32.0
libva: User requested driver 'xvba'
libva: Trying to open /usr/lib/x86_64-linux-gnu/dri/xvba_drv_video.so
XIO:  fatal IO error 11 (Resource temporarily unavailable) on X server :0
  after 11 requests (11 known processed) with 0 events remaining.

Of course also trying to play a video with hardware acceleration makes the X 
server crash and restart.
If the LIBVA_DRIVER_NAME environment variable is removed from /etc/environment, 
vainfo works again and it is possible to play videos even when using VA API for 
video acceleration (independently of the GPU selected). The vainfo output is:

libva: VA-API version 0.32.0
libva: va_getDriverName() returns 0
libva: Trying to open /usr/lib/x86_64-linux-gnu/dri/i965_drv_video.so
libva: va_openDriver() returns 0
vainfo: VA-API version: 0.32 (libva 1.0.15)
vainfo: Driver version: Intel i965 driver - 1.0.17
vainfo: Supported profile and entrypoints
  VAProfileMPEG2Simple: VAEntrypointVLD
  VAProfileMPEG2Main  : VAEntrypointVLD
  VAProfileH264Baseline   : VAEntrypointVLD
  VAProfileH264Baseline   : VAEntrypointEncSlice
  VAProfileH264Main   : VAEntrypointVLD
  VAProfileH264Main   : VAEntrypointEncSlice
  VAProfileH264High   : VAEntrypointVLD
  VAProfileH264High   : VAEntrypointEncSlice
  VAProfileVC1Simple  : VAEntrypointVLD
  VAProfileVC1Main: VAEntrypointVLD
  VAProfileVC1Advanced: VAEntrypointVLD

Still, this is a minor issue compared to the main bug treated here.

2013-02-11 Thread Marco Vuano
On my system the driver works fine both with dgpu and the igpu, excpet
for a bug which should be the same as Bug #1088220. Basically, when
using the iGPU some periodic crashes of the X server with subsequent Low
Graphics Mode are experienced. However, the main bug reported here seems
to be solved. Thanks Nick for packing this new driver so that we can
finally assess if it is the actual fix for this bug!

I think the message is not a real problem, but some kind of workaround.
My system too give me this message when I switch to the discrete GPU:

I tried the new 13.2 beta driver from AMD (2:12.100-0ubuntu1) and they work 
correctly with the Intel driver from 12.10 repository (2:2.20.9-0ubuntu2)!
I think it is important to verify whether this problem is finally solved by the

As a side note: with the 13.2 beta driver the integrated GPU too works fine 
without having to apply the patch for direct rendering.
It must be verified, however, if this is true also for systems where the patch

doesn't supported it Xorg log message should try this new driver,

[Bug 1068404] Re: Low graphics mode in Hybrid ATI/Intel GPU systems after fglrx upgrade

2012-12-10 Thread Marco Vuano
@Nick: I noticed that Freedesktop's bug 56494 affects a system based on AMD 
Radeon HD 6550M which uses PowerXpress 3.0/Switchable graphics and not 
PowerXpress 4.0/Dynamic Switchable graphics. It is likely that the bug is not 
the same.
To clarify the version of PowerXpress supported by the various supported AMD 
cards, I'll post this short list based on information on AMD site (names are 
based on information available on AMD site and on the slides which can be 
viewed on http://www.slideshare.net/AMD/amd-enduro-technology):

PowerXpress 3.0/Switchable Graphics: HD 6300M series, HD 6500M series.
PowerXpress 4.0/Dynamic Switchable Graphics: (HD 6300M series), HD 6400M 
series, HD 6600M/6700M series, HD 7300M series, HD 7400M series, HD 7500M/7600M 
series.
PowerXpress 5.0/Enduro: HD 7700M series, HD 7800M series, HD 7900M series

The HD 6300M series is reported as being based both on PowerXpress 3.0
(http://www.amd.com/us/products/technologies/switchable-graphics/Pages
/switchable-graphics.aspx) and PowerXpress 4.0
(http://www.amd.com/us/products/notebook/graphics/amd-radeon-6000m/amd-
radeon-6300m/Pages/amd-radeon-6300m.aspx), we need to see the report of
an user with a GPU based on HD 6300M series to clarify this (apparently
the muxless version of PowerXpress 3.0 is not supported on Linux, so if
a HD 6300M series GPU uses the muxless version of PowerXpress 3.0 it
should have the same issue reported on bug 56494 of Freedesktop).

[Bug 1084491] [NEW] GNOME Disks' benchmark cached raw data are no longer human readable

2012-11-29 Thread Marco Vuano
Public bug reported:

While the previous benchmarks done with GNOME Disk Utility generated raw
data which were cached in ~/.cache/gnome-disk-utility/drive-benchmark
and were in a human readable form which could be easily parsed and then
analyzed with programs such as Libreoffice Calc, the new GNOME Disks
benchmarks generate raw data which are cached in ~/.cache/gnome-
disks/benchmarks and are no longer in human readable form (especially
the numerical values are no longer read correctly by programs such as
more or gedit).

2012-10-28 Thread Marco Vuano
Regarding the first part of the bug (Unity not working after installing fglrx), 
this is a known bug (when using the integrated GPU after installing fglrx, 
direct rendering has problems) which is now more apparent becuse it seems that 
Unity 2d is no longer present on Ubuntu 12.10. There is a solution for this 
bug, which is described in step 2 of the first message of this thread: 
http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?t=1930450
I tried that myself and now Unity works even when using the integrated GPU.
Regarding the second part of the bug (low graphics mode after installing fglrx 
and running sudo aticonfig --initial), it is probably the same bug as the one I 
reported (after all, PowerXpress 4.0/dynamic switchable graphics is also used 
on AMD Radeon HD 6770M).

architecture (xserver-xorg-video-intel_2.20.0-0~andrik1_amd64.deb for 64-bit 
systems, xserver-xorg-video-intel_2.20.0-0~andrik1_i386.deb for 32-bit systems)
3-open the terminal
4-go to the directory where the packages have been downloaded
5-run
sudo dpkg -i xserver-xorg-video-intel_2.20.0-0~andrik1_amd64.deb (for 64-bit 
systems)
or
sudo dpkg -i xserver-xorg-video-intel_2.20.0-0~andrik1_i386.deb (for 32-bit 
systems)

In my case, the intel driver was enough to make the fglrx and fglrx-
updates drivers from quantal/restricted repository work.

[Bug 1068404] Re: 1002:6760 Switchable graphics on Radeon HD 6400M not working again

2012-10-27 Thread Marco Vuano
I can confirm that the xserver-xorg-video-
intel_2.20.0-0~andrik1_amd64.deb from Nick Andrick's PPa is enough to
solve the issue with the fglrx-updates_9.000-0ubuntu3_amd64 from the
official quantal/restricted repository. The driver is working correctly
now, but the discrete GPU has to be used in order to use Unity 3D (the
Intel driver has problem with 3d acceleration when the fglrx driver is
installed, but this another bug not strictly related to this one).

2012-10-27 Thread Marco Vuano
The xserver-xorg-video-intel_2.20.0-0~andrik1_amd64.deb package is also able to 
solve the issue with the fglrx drivers installed with the 
fglrx_9.000-0ubuntu3_amd64.deb package (again, Unity works only with the 
discrete GPU).
Thank you very much, Nick and Christopher!

  After installing the latest fglrx-updates package on Ubuntu 12.10

[Bug 279307] Re: grub fails to boot on computers having a 28-bit lba and an hard disk larger than 128 GB

2009-01-20 Thread Marco Vuano
The best thing to do is actually reading the manual of the motherboard,
or the new features introduced with the BIOS update, if you updated the
BIOS.

[Bug 279307] Re: grub fails to boot on computers having a 28-bit lba and an hard disk larger than 128 GB

2008-11-03 Thread Marco Vuano
Actually, the only way I fixed this issue on my pc was to use LILO with the 
lba32 option, by creating an appropriate /etc/lilo.conf file(in this case, 
since on my pc there was also Opensuse, I edited the /etc/lilo.conf file 
created by Yast2 to make it work with Ubuntu's liloconfig, however it is more 
reccomended to follow the instructions on 
http://wiki.debian.org/LILO?highlight=%28LILO%29) and then running liloconfig.
Furthermore, I also had to make new initrd image for the kernel with Yaird 
(http://wiki.debian.org/InitrdReplacementOptions), because the ones made by 
initramfs-tools didn't seem to work out of the box.
Unfortunately, you have to use Yaird to create a new initrd image, edit 
/etc/lilo.conf and run liloconfig each time there is a kernel or modules update.
of course, the easiest way to fix this problem is to update the BIOS, however 
if the mainboard is too old or if you use a laptop there is the risk not to 
have an update for the BIOS to introduce a 48-bit lba.
The only solution I had to permanently solve this problem was to buy a 
second-hand pc with a bios with a 48-bit lba, with which I could use GRUB. I 
don't think, however, that buying a new pc is the right solution to this bug...

[Bug 279307] Re: grub fails to boot on computers having a 28-bit lba and an hard disk larger than 128 GB

2008-11-03 Thread Marco Vuano
The reason why I reported the bug recently is that the AGP slot of my
second-hand pc didn't work anymore, so I had to revert to my old
computer with a 28-bit lba, which of course had the same problem as
before, since I have a 160GB-large HD. Furthermore, a friend of mine
also had this problem on his laptop with Kubuntu 7.10.

[Bug 279307] [NEW] grub fails to boot on computers having a 28-bit lba and an hard disk larger than 128 GB

2008-10-06 Thread Marco Vuano
Public bug reported:

Binary package hint: grub

When you have a computer whose motherboard has only 28-bit lba support,
if you use an hard disk of more than 128 GB and GRUB tries to read a
sector whose sector number is higher than the highest sector number you
would have using a 128 GB hard disk (which is common if a partition is
found on the terminal sectors of the HD), GRUB fails to boot and report
an error 18 Selected cylinder exceeds maximum supported by BIOS. LILO
solves this by using an lba32 option, however GRUB doesn't have such
an option, and the solutions to these problem are difficult to find and
apply even for an experienced user.

Ubuntu release: Kubuntu 7.10
