[Bug 292214] Re: Xinerama broken since intrepid on MGA
Well, as a temporary fix, I went with the solution that installs Hardy's xorg packages along with the "unofficial" 4.4.4 driver. Unfortunately, now the system is constantly wants to upgrade the whole xorg system back to the Intrepid versions. I don't want to upgrade all that again until I am sure it will do dual monitor (in my setup) will work. -- Xinerama broken since intrepid on MGA https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/292214 You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
[Bug 292214] Re: Xinerama broken since intrepid on MGA
I started with a new intrepid kubuntu install, did an apt-get update/upgrade, then changed my xorg.conf file to do dual head and got the BAR 0 issue. I then installed Andy's ppa mga driver and rebooted the machine. I get the same result as before. The second monitor looks out of sync (diagonal lines, distorted picture), and when I swtich back to console mode, the screen resolution on the second monitor is [EMAIL PROTECTED] Hz (according to the monitor's status screen). Both monitors should be running at [EMAIL PROTECTED] The primary monitor seems to be correct in that regard, and the second monitor _reports_ that it is getting set to that resolution/refresh rate, but something must not be reporting correctly. I've also tried mergedFB, but it fails when it complains it cannot load mga_hal. Since I am using a PCI G550 (I think it might be dual DVI, but I am using the monitors in analog mode), I didn't think the driver was supposed to try to load mga_hal. In any case, mga_hal is not installed. -- Xinerama broken since intrepid on MGA https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/292214 You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
Re: [Bug 292214] Re: Xinerama broken since intrepid on MGA
Tried that and other options. When I set the above option, I see this (note that video and Crtc2 RAM are the same): (II) MGA(0): Primary V_BIOS segment is: 0xc000 (**) MGA(0): Using 32 MB of AGP memory (**) MGA(0): Using AGP 4x mode (--) MGA(0): Linear framebuffer at 0xD000 (--) MGA(0): Pseudo-DMA transfer window at 0xD200 (--) MGA(0): Video BIOS info block at offset 0x07D20 (II) MGA(0): MAPPED Framebuffer D000 200 to B598E000. (II) MGA(0): UNMAPPING framebuffer 0xB598E000, 0x200. (**) MGA(0): Crtc2 will use 16384K of VideoRam (--) MGA(0): VideoRAM: 16384 kByte Without that option, I get: (--) MGA(0): Crtc2 will use 8192K of VideoRam (--) MGA(0): VideoRAM: 24576 kByte Both cases are the same. The second screen is messed up with black slightly diagonal lines (going down from left to right), but obvious changes to the distortion when I move the pointer onto that screen. I can use a lower resolution on that screen which makes it viewable, but its the wrong aspect ratio and the kde desktop doesn't seem to recognize it completely (I can put windows over there, but none of the tools seem to recognize that section). Both sections of the Xorg.0.log file for MGA(0) and MGA(1) indicate they picked this modeline to use: (II) MGA(0): Modeline "1680x1050"x60.0 146.25 1680 1784 1960 2240 1050 1053 1059 1089 -hsync +vsync (65.3 kHz) (II) MGA(1): Modeline "1680x1050"x60.0 146.25 1680 1784 1960 2240 1050 1053 1059 1089 -hsync +vsync (65.3 kHz) -- Xinerama broken since intrepid on MGA https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/292214 You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
[Bug 292214] Re: Xinerama broken since intrepid on MGA
Using Andy's patched package, I am able to get both screens up again, but the second monitor is distorted like there is a sync problem. However, the monitor is reporting that the signals are correct. I am using a G550 Dual head with two Dell 2005FPW monitors at 1680x1050. If I force the second monitor to a different resolution (like 1280x1024), then it will display, but it is distorted due to the wrong aspect ratio. Also, even though I can move windows over to that side, it's almost like the desktop doesn't extend that far. There are no backgrounds or any context menus from the desktop there. Of course, this all worked fine before updating from Hardy to Intrepid. Other things I've noticed: Control panel for the display crashes (saw that with KDE4 in Hardy), X -configure does not work with mga driver, mga_hal_drv doesn't like to load. -- Xinerama broken since intrepid on MGA https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/292214 You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
[Bug 251218] [NEW] Kopete KDE4 doesn't support sametime (meanwhile) protocol
Public bug reported: Binary package hint: kopete-kde4 In switching over from KDE 3 to KDE 4, I tried to configure Kopete to use my company's sametime server. It looks like the protocol isn't supported. There is no dependency on the meanwhile library, nor are any meanwhile files installed with the package. I am using the Hardy Heron (Ubuntu 8.04.1) KDE 4 RC1 package. ** Affects: kdenetwork-kde4 (Ubuntu) Importance: Undecided Status: New -- Kopete KDE4 doesn't support sametime (meanwhile) protocol https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/251218 You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
