[Ubuntu-x-swat] [Bug 377929] Re: Unable to set rotation on AMD Geode LX800
Hi, all, Inverted rotation issue (icon and glyph missing and desktop Corruption phenomenon), it was tested by Frank and Mitch, also I have made a lot of testing (e g: change the Graphic memory in BIOS, long time to do the inverted rotation and then click the icon/button, change the display resolution, open the website, the Patch has supported x-server 1.6/1.7/1.8/1.9, running on ubuntu 10.04 and Fedora 12 platform etc), the feedback is well. About this patch, since the scratch pixmap header will be re-used after allocation, we need to clear its buffer object attachment when we stop using it, otherwise a later user will use a bogus buffer object. In addition, the pitch values also need to recalculate in lx_crtc_mode_set function, it is a line size, otherwise, the desktop will occur corruption. The commit is on http://cgit.freedesktop.org/xorg/driver/xf86-video-geode/commit/?id=74e28b83d5b725a134aad264771a7c9a4d0e38df , any feedback, please told me.

[Ubuntu-x-swat] [Bug 377929] Re: Unable to set rotation on AMD Geode LX800
Hi, all, Some time ago, it has some side effects on this issue. Phenomenon: when go to inverted mode rotation and back to normal, and afterwards various icons are gone and many fonts are just three vertical lines, also weird white and blue horizontal lines instead of the black gradient open box panel. After search, it need to modify the rotation pitch value and use own wrapper to allocate a pixmap for wrapping a buffer object, it removes using scratch pixmaps for rotate. The update is on http://lists.x.org/archives/xorg-driver- geode/2010-September/001062.html, any feedback, please told me.

Hi, Martin, No, this issue is not fixed by 2.11.8-11, we should add the appropriate mode line to out codebase. In a previous Frank and Rigo study, adding Modelines to xorg.conf(or using xrandr command) can let Geode support more wide-screen modes and can be recognized by gnome-display-properties applet. So the baseline is that geode can support wide-screen resolutions. In our current code, there is a bug that will filter out the modelines adding to xorg.conf. We need to let driver kindly pass these new modes to the gnome. Details in git commit code below: http://cgit.freedesktop.org/xorg/driver/xf86-video-geode/commit/?id=e9447f5335681a78cf87ebf8c9659a6fecfc9746 We still need to research...

Hi, Rigo, Got your explanation. So I think the cvt and gtf can generate similar effect. In Xorg.0.log file, you can find one message about "Printing probed modes for output default", list some Modeline, I think it need modify the driver file (cim_modes.c). I hope it can help you. :) Thanks, Hunk Cui -Original Message- From: boun...@canonical.com [mailto:boun...@canonical.com] On Behalf Of Rigoberto Torres Sent: Saturday, July 10, 2010 7:41 AM To: Cui, Hunk Subject: [Bug 433142] Re: geode driver do not display 1024x600 on (K)UNR Karmic Hi Frank, The cvt is a linux utility for calculating VESA Coordinated Video Timing modes, given the desired horizontal, vertical resolutions and refresh rate. Gtf is a similar unix utility that basically does the same thing. I have seen other display timing generating utilities including one developed by one of our engineers called "lx_gtf.exe", which is distributed with our LX product on our AMD embedded developers website. All these display timing generating utilities seem to give a slightly different horizontal timing, vertical timing or refresh rate, but they are all with in range and for the most part work well. By looking at display panel timing specs you can see that panels a range of tolerable timings, as long as you stay within the specified range the display works good. If you go ousstide their specified range you can see side effects including artifacts on the display screen, the screen shifted to the right to the left, up or down, or part of the display off the screen. So, cvt and gtf are similar utilities that generate display timings.

Status in "xserver-xorg-video-geode" package in Ubuntu: Confirmed Bug description: Geode driver do not display 1024x600 resolution in (K)UNR Karmic. Actually, the bug also affects Jaunty, but doesnt affect Intrepid. I used to use a custom xorg.conf in intrepid, but it doesnt work on Jaunty or Karmic. In Jaunty and karmic, I could only use 1024x768 whick makes the screen bigger than the real display and is impossible to open new programs, specially in the menus (they simply disapear in the bottom of the screen). Further investigations on other distros made me think this is a regression from the xserver-xorg-video-geode 2.10.1-2. This bug affects all drivers from 2.10.1 (which is in Intrepid). In fact, Debian Lenny (that uses geode 2.10.1-2) works perfectly, VectorLinux 6.0 lite (that uses geode 2.9 - i think), also works. Jaunty (geode 2.11.1-1) and Karmic (2.11.4.1-1) dont work, they only display 1024x768... Actually, when I use the automatic configuration in Jaunty and Karmic (with no xorg.conf), the screen really seems to be 1024x768, but when I use the custom xorg.conf (the same I use in Intrepid), the screen seems different... like it was 800x768 (I know it's wierd, but it doesnt seem to be 1024x768 at all - everything is really ugly).

Hi, Rigo, I promise your idea and appreciate your detail explanation. :) Now the urgent issue is: Add the Modeline into our driver as a default setup, if the LVDS or VGA displayer is a wide screen (16:9), it can identify the Modeline is 1024x600, if the LVDS or VGA displayer is a standard screen (4:3), it can identify the Modeline is 1024x768.

Hi, all
To repeatedly cycle test, I have written a shell-script to test the rotate.
Now it can properly rotate in Xserver 1.8 (Need add my gamma correction patch).
Because I have some confuse on memorysize, so I need some time to research
and consider whether this approach is correct. I can not explain too specific.
But it can solve the urgent rotate issue in temporary.
Any other latest update, I will inform.

Welcome everyone test the code.
I suggest you use:
Rotate left: xrandr --output OUTPUT --rotate left
Rotate right:xrandr --output OUTPUT --rotate right
Rotate inverted: xrandr --output OUTPUT --rotate inverted
Rotate normal:xrandr --output OUTPUT --rotate normal
where OUTPUT would be replaced by one of the outputs shown when you run
`xrandr' without any options. You can use "xrandr -q" to know your OUTPUT name.
BTW: The Xrandr Guide:
http://www.thinkwiki.org/wiki/Xorg_RandR_1.2#Note_for_Ubuntu_Gutsy_users
The `-o' options is a RandR 1.0/1.1 command and may exercise a
different driver code path from the RandR 1.2 `--rotate' option. RandR
1.2 introduced per-output rotation which wasn't available in earlier
versions. Consequently, `xrandr -o' is equivalent to rotating the entire
desktop (composed of all the outputs) rather than just a specific
output. Depending on the Geode driver's support for multiple outputs and
which outputs are connected, using `xrandr -o' could confuse the driver.
Thanks,
Hunk Cui

About the RandR-"unable to set rotation" issue. 1. Before 08/2008, our Geode-LX always use exaAllocOffscreen, but for update to Randr 1.2, Jordan Crouse replace exaAllocOffscreen with GeodeAllocOffscreen. The change: http://cgit.freedesktop.org/xorg/driver/xf86-video-geode/commit/?id=d681a844e448712a9a419d2a4dca81930d39a80a 2. In our xf86-video-geode driver, all of memories are allocated by GeodeAllocOffscreen, the exa offscreen memory is part of the memorySize. And the rotation data is not in memorySize, it is allocated after memorySize. 3. Communion with Maarten Maathuis (from Xorg-devel). In exaAllocOffscreen, rotateddata has to be allocated between memoryBase and memorySize. In GeodeAllocOffscreen, rotateddata is not in memorySize, it is allocated after memorySize. This is exactly the reason why exa doesn't recognize it. You can turn to the Xorg-driver-geode Mailing List to focus the schedule. Any other latest update, I will inform.

Hi, phpmonkey， This is right, because the Geode LX driver does not support the 16:9 screen, in common situation, the default is setup to 4:3 screen (1024x768), so if you want to set 1024x600, the only method is add a common line in xorg.conf file, see following: in Section "Monitor" Add: Modeline "1024x600" 48.96 1024 1064 1168 1312 600 601 604 622 -Hsync +Vsync after that, the Geode-driver may run on a unstable environment, but you can use this method test your machine on a long run time.

[Ubuntu-x-swat] [Bug 377929] Re: Unable to set rotation on AMD Geode LX800
Hi, all, As Rigo said about “unable to set rotation on AMD Geode LX800”, I used Ubuntu 9.10 which comes with generic kernel 2.6.31-17 and Xserver 1.6.4, geode-driver 2.11.6, I also able to rotate the screen just fine with the default geode driver that comes with this distribution using Xrandr. Rotation is working just fine with 'xrandr'. I used command such as: > xrandr -o left > xrandr -o right > xrandr -o inverted > xrandr -o normal I gave a try with 1.7.1 server on rotation, Geode driver 2.11.7, In our platform, the name is "default", (BTW: In general use $ xrandr -q to discover the appropriate output names for your configuration, the reference link: http://www.thinkwiki.org/wiki/Xorg_RandR_1.2) When I tried: "xrandr --output default --rotate left". The screen turn to black. Then tried: "xrandr --output default --rotate normal --auto". The screen return to normal. Now we doubt it is a bug, because from 1.6.4 server to 1.7.1 server, the part of RandR have been updated and changed from source code. Are there any other ideas?

[Ubuntu-x-swat] [Bug 570584] Re: Geode driver not display Screensaver
Through compare the parts of "xf86ChangeGammaRamp" between VESA driver
and Geode driver, in judge the "xf86_crtc_supports_gamma(pScrn)", the
Geode driver is ture when the 'fading' option is set, but the VESA
driver always are false between 'fading' and 'not fading', it can only
call the CMapColor. At the same time, the red, green and blue value are
0 from ProcXF86VidModeSetGammaRamp transfer the color parameter. So
using code zero to represent black if no Gamma action. It is an
integrated palette RAM for gamma-correction of the data stream. So I use
the following methods to fix the bug, How do you think? But the xf86
-video-intel driver use the "drmModeCrtcSetGamma" (in libdrm ->
xf86drmMode.c) to deal with the events.
In lx_display.c -> lx_crtc_gamma_set function:
the change is:
assert(size == 256);
+ for (i = 0; i < size; i++) { //changed by Hunk
- for (i = 0; i < 256; i++) {
unsigned int val = (*red << 8) | *green | (*blue >> 8);
df_set_video_palette_entry(i, val);
In cim_df.c -> df_set_video_palette_entry function:
the change is:
+++ cim/cim_df.c 2010-05-11 18:06:47.051406358 +0800
--- cim_df_old.c 2010-02-04 05:09:54.0 +0800
/* SET A SINGLE ENTRY */

+ {

- WRITE_VID32(DF_PALETTE_DATA, palette);
-

[Ubuntu-x-swat] [Bug 570584] Re: Geode driver not display Screensaver
Through compare the ‘fading’ option and ‘not fading’ option, print
the Xserver and Geode-driver debugging information on the SSH terminal.
I found the ‘fading’ option trigger the Geode-driver (lx_display.c ->
lx_crtc_gamma_set function), but the ‘not fading’ option does not
trigger this function.
I had a test, the following change:
static void
lx_crtc_gamma_set(xf86CrtcPtr crtc, CARD16 * red, CARD16 * green,
CARD16 * blue, int size)
{
unsigned int dcfg;
int i;
DebugP("lx_crtc_gamma_set /by Hunk\n");
#if 0
assert(size == 256);
for (i = 0; i < 256; i++) {
unsigned int val = (*red << 8) | *green | (*blue >> 8);
df_set_video_palette_entry(i, val);
}
/* df_set_video_palette_entry automatically turns on
* gamma for video - if this gets called, we assume that
* RandR wants it set for graphics, so reverse cimarron
*/
dcfg = READ_VID32(DF_DISPLAY_CONFIG);
dcfg &= ~DF_DCFG_GV_PAL_BYP;
WRITE_VID32(DF_DISPLAY_CONFIG, dcfg);
#endif
}
After re-make the Geode-driver, when I run the ‘fading’ option, the
client program ( xscreensaver ) also print the debugging information
about “fading…/ fading done”, now the screensaver is properly display.
So through the test, I am sure that the main reason is upper function
(lx_crtc_gamma_set).
The ‘not display screensaver’ bug reason was found.
I will follow it….

[Ubuntu-x-swat] [Bug 570584] Re: Geode driver not display Screensaver
With the debug of xscreensaver (client program). I found that if eschewing “fade to black when blanking”. (the xscreensaver old version <5.0). The screensaver is properly display on Gnome-desktop. The specifically methods is modified the xscreensaver sourcecode (windows.c -> raise_window function). If your xsceensaver version >= 5.0, then you can setup the dialog box “System -> Preferences -> Screensaver -> Advanced”, Not click the “fade to block when blanking” option. If the fading is true (Default: true), then when the screensaver activates, the current contents of the screen will fade to black instead of simply winking out. This only works on certain systems. A fade will also be done when switching graphics hacks (when the cycle timer expires.). So through this method and setup, Now the screensaver is properly display on our Geode platform. The next phase, I will research the “fading” function is whether or not affected the parts of geode driver, then taking a deep research into other bugs reported in the community. ** Changed in: xserver-xorg-video-geode (Ubuntu) Status: Confirmed => Fix Committed -- Geode driver not display Screensaver https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/570584 You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu-X, which is subscribed to xserver-xorg-video-geode in ubuntu. ___ Mailing list: https://launchpad.net/~ubuntu-x-swat Post to : ubuntu-x-swat@lists.launchpad.net Unsubscribe : https://launchpad.net/~ubuntu-x-swat More help : https://help.launchpad.net/ListHelp

Once use the Geode-driver, the screen will be in black after wait for 1 minute, if you move the mouse or press the key, the screen can not be back again. My xf86-video-geode version is 2.11.7, XServer version is 1.7.1 ** Affects: xserver-xorg-video-geode (Ubuntu) Importance: Undecided Status: New -- Geode driver not dispaly Screensaver https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/570584 You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu-X, which is subscribed to xserver-xorg-video-geode in ubuntu. ___ Mailing list: https://launchpad.net/~ubuntu-x-swat Post to : ubuntu-x-swat@lists.launchpad.net Unsubscribe : https://launchpad.net/~ubuntu-x-swat More help : https://help.launchpad.net/ListHelp
