[Bug 35741] Re: Wrong module directory used when loading i915_dri.so ?
I confirm via a variation, Michael Ambrus's comments. In this machine, all of the above symptoms are observed. The final resolution was that the fglrx packages had been installed and were interfering with mesa. aptitude remove xorg-driver-fglrx fglrx-control Fixed it. -- Wrong module directory used when loading i915_dri.so ? https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/35741 You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is a direct subscriber. -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
[Bug 35741] Re: Wrong module directory used when loading i915_dri.so ?
I don't know if this bug fits in this thread or not. The problem I have is that my Sony Vaio SZ2MB has two video cards. One 945GM intel and one nvidia card. With the nvidia card I have all the 3d acceleration working but with the 945GM I don't. The problem is that I don't why this is not working. My xorg.conf loads GLX and DRI, and the driver that I'm using is i810. I have tried to load i915 and intel-agp manually and I get the same. The most interesting error is found in /var/log/xorg.0.log (EE) Failed to initialize GLX extension (Compatible NVIDIA X driver not found) error opening security policy file /usr/lib/xserver/SecurityPolicy I don't know why is trying to load an nvidia compatible driver. Could anyone help me?

Re: [Bug 35741] Re: Wrong module directory used when loading i915_dri.so ?
this happened to me as well. but, if i uninstall the nvidia-glx package, then i do have 3D accel working with the i965 card. beryl does not working with xinerama, though. so it seems as if the nvidia-glx package interferes with the acceleration for the i965 card.

Re: [Bug 35741] Re: Wrong module directory used when loading i915_dri.so ?
so it seems as if the nvidia-glx package interferes with the acceleration for the i965 card. Yes, this was my conclusion also. As I recall it (i could remember it wrong so better double check this) the nvidia variant of libGL.so is not compatible with DRI. I.e. other cards should have the same problem with DRI and not only i965. I.e. in case one has any other card than nividia, remove all nvidia related packages, restart X and DRI should work. /Michael -- Wrong module directory used when loading i915_dri.so ? https://launchpad.net/bugs/35741 -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
[Bug 35741] Re: Wrong module directory used when loading i915_dri.so ?
Albert Paul, as for supporting dynamic switching between the two cards, I'm pretty sure one is disabled when the other is in use. If both were enabled (powered on), then the switch wouldn't have much utility in terms of saving the battery. So, the only thing we could do is have a similar message. -- Wrong module directory used when loading i915_dri.so ? https://launchpad.net/bugs/35741 -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
[Bug 35741] Re: Wrong module directory used when loading i915_dri.so ?
This bug (or a varint of it) is still around (I'm using Ubuntu 6.06 LTS). I wasn't able to enable DRI for i915 despite all the hints available until I stumbled across this thread and repeated some of the experimentation's that Ariel did. This solved my issue, and it possibly also provides a hint to this (or a related) bug. The symptoms I got was that /var/log/Xorg.0.log and dmsg both showed all the signs that DRI was enabled. But still, no matter how I tried, I couldn't get glxinfo show that direct rendering was enabled. Eventually my suspicions lead me to believe that there was something broken between glx and the lower layers and that the symptoms resembled the ones mentioned here. (I didn't however see any message about i915_dri.so not being found.) So I did the following: - dpkg -L libgl1-mesa-dri : usr/lib/libGL.so.1.2 diverted by xorg-driver-fglrx to: /usr/lib/fglrx/libGL.so.1.2.xlibmesa : - errm, wait-a-minute what's this...? fglrx? That's for ATI cards. Further investigation showed that this file belongs to xorg-driver-fglrx, which was installed, but so was also all other drivers (xorg-driver-all) as well. I simply removing xorg-driver-fglrx, restarted X and all worked peaches. Repeating the command above now showed that usr/lib/libGL.so.1.2 no longer was diverted either (whatever that is ;) ). Noticeable is that the system I'm using is almost brand new and I didn't recompile neither the kernel nor any of the kernel- or X- drivers/modules. Furthermore I think that the symlink patches above isn't needed any longer (at least not for my current version of the system). Hope this helps and thanx for a good job with Ubuntu. /Michael -- Wrong module directory used when loading i915_dri.so ? https://launchpad.net/bugs/35741 -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
