Exactly how does one go about volunteering to work on the web site and

Sending an email to [EMAIL PROTECTED] does not seem to have resulted in

I would be happy to work on an FAQ, man pages, general web site stuff.

If you're using an nVidia card, you need 'Option "FlatPanel"'.

It appears RADEONWaitForVerticalSync can cause some race conditon with DRM
WaitVBlank routine. If this is the case, Michel's patch should work. Since
the display driver can also use CRTC2 (different from CRTC1's vblank
condition) when DRI is enabled, this makes things more complicated.
Judging from current situation, we probably should take
RADEONWaitForVerticalSync and RADEONWaitForVerticalSync2 all out of the
cursor routines. The WaitForVerticalSync functions were added for avoiding
flickering problem when switching between ARGB and BW cursors. This problem
is much less severe than having WaitForVerticalSync to time out,
particularly if ARGB cursor is not used as default (has this been decided?).
We can work this thing out after 4.3 release.

Please do both of following things in your config file:
1. Uncomment your CloneHSync, CloneVRefresh lines.
The DDC on your HP monitor worked fine, but it failed on your SUN monitor
somehow.
2. Use Modes "1280x1024" "1024x768" instead of Modes "1600x1200" "1280x1024"
You shouldn't need this if you have the patch I sent to you. Without that
patch you have to make sure you have 1024x768 (your panel's native mode) in
your Modes line.

In v4.2.1, both heads are driven by the same CRTC. That way, while you can
get the external CRT working, it can cause problems on the LCD (lots of
people have complained about it). To get only the external CRT working with
LCD disabled, current driver may appear a little awkward, but it's safer.
There is a better approach to this which has been implemented, but because
we are running out of time testing it for v4.3, it won't appear until after
v4.3.

  I've got well over a dozen cards and haven't seen any problems
with those two primitives.  Who made that card and what's its
BIOS version?  Could be a broken card, but it's more like that
it just POSTs with the clocks too low.

This patch works for me with DRI enabled, can you (or anyone seeing the
problem, for that matter) try it?

There could still be an even worse problem if the vertical blank
interrupt stops working for some reason (I've seen that happen after
some weird 3D client crashes). Another possibility would be polling the
CRTC_VBLANK_SAVE bit in the CRTC_STATUS register. Kevin, Hui, anyone

So you have verified that it only happens with a display manager. :)

Probably still happens with that? One possibility is one or more
processes keeping the DRM open (Qt comes to mind) long enough to prevent
the next server generation from enabling the DRI. That causing a lockup
would still be a bug, but this might give opportunities for workarounds.

[XFree86] ATI FireGL / IBM RC1000 / GT1000 PCI

[sgx]

Hi,

Is there, or will there, be any support for the above card... also
marketted as FireGL 2 PRO PCI or HP GL-UX.. Linux detects it as:

  Bus  0, device  11, function  0:
VGA compatible controller: PCI device 1014:0170 (IBM) (rev 2).
  IRQ 28.
  Master Capable.  Latency=32.  Min Gnt=255.Max Lat=255.
  Non-prefetchable 32 bit memory at 0xa58 [0xa59].
  Non-prefetchable 32 bit memory at 0xc00 [0xfff].

It is aparrently manufactured by ATI, uses an IBM chipset.. and is
supplied on a 64bit pci card, a picture (890kb) is available at
http://www.ev6.net/card.jpg
I hear conflicting things, some people tell me this card is Radeon
based/compatible, but the current CVS XF86 doesnt detect it as such, would
it work if it recognised the PCI ID as a radeon card? or is it just not
compatible atall?
The ATI-supplied binary drivers should aparrently support this card, but
the only machine i have which will take this card atall is an Alpha, and
thus wont run the x86 binaries supplied by ATI.

[XFree86] "nv" driver bug with 2D acceleration

The following bug has been reported to me in bugzilla, and the
person has narrowed it down to a couple of 2D accel primitives.  
I've made these disabled by default for now as a quick
workaround, but I thought I'd mention it on the list to see if 
others are experiencing the same problems and what all chips it 
occurs on.

Mark, let me know if there's anything I can do to help gather

Re: [XFree86] XFree86 on Alpha support doc

[moonshine_religion]

You should provide more information on the problems you're
seeing. It's not possible to diagnose what's wrong with so little
information.  
Looking at /var/log/XFree86.0.log for obvious error messages is
the first step. 
If you don't find anything obvious, send it to this list, along with
other information that may be relevant (like are you using startx or
xdm to launch the server, dmesg command output,...)

Well here are the ugly details. Also what are all of the .debug_line 
messages?

I think it's a complete hardware lockup.

If you don't need the DRI, disabling it might help. Otherwise, can you
try if the 4.2.99.x snapshot packages described in
http://penguinppc.org/~daniels/README work better?

[XFree86] XFree86-4.2.1 doesn't support VIA EPIA M board's CastleRock chip

[Chris Shenton]

Got a VIA EPIA M single board computer and am diskless net-booting
FreeBSD-4.7 on it from another FreeBSD box.  That works fine.  But I
can't get XFree86-4.2.1, built last month, to run on it. The docs
indicate the graphics chip is "Integrated VIA CastleRock AGP graphics
with MPEG-2 decoder":

http://www.viavpsd.com/product/epia_m_spec.jsp?motherboardId=81

In some googling I have found some other folks with similar problems. 

http://www.advogato.org/person/Fefe/

When XFree86 exits, it says:

XFree86 ha sfound a valid card configuration.
Unfortunately the appropriate data has not been added to xf86PciInfo.h.
Please forward 'scanpci -v' output to XFree86 support team.

So I've included that here as well as the logs from trying to invoke
as "XFree86 -configure".

Thanks for your help.

[XFree86] i830m and stretching

[Iñaki García Etxebarria]

Hi Xperts,

I wrote a few days ago about a problem with i830m and mode switching. No
solution was given, but Hans Öfverbeck said something interesting about
stretching. The relevant mail is labelled:
"Mode incorrectly set with i830m in a toshiba 3000 x4 laptop"

Further investigations show that in the CVS version of i830_driver.c
there's a "Stretch" option, although it appears to be not implemented
(just glanzing through the code, I cannot run X cvs now). There's a
'Center' option too, i guess they will set the appropiate registers in
the i830 (btw, are there any public specs for this card? I could only
find for i810 in the intel site). I tried setting/unsetting the bits 31
and 29 of the 0x60018 register with pcitweak
[pcitweak -w 00:02:00 0x60018 number, i hope this makes some sense] to
no avail. The program succeeds but the register doesn't change.

I would appreciate some help with this. I don't mind working on it but I
need an starting point:
- Is anyone working on the implementation of "Stretch" and "Center"?
Could they be related to my problem? (i will be glad to provide more
info about my problem as needed)
- Are there any publicly available specs for the i830m?
- Can I use pcitweak to change registers of the graphics card instead of
modifying the xf86 module? (less painful for q'n'd testing)

TIA,
Iñaki

[XFree86] Radeon mobility U1

[Nik A. Melchior]

To the radeon driver maintainer,

I recently tried out a beta of 4.3, and it doesn't support the graphics
chip in my laptop (Radeon Mobility U1, chipID 4336).  Will support be
added for this chip?  What can I do to help?

Thank you,

Andrew is right. An FAQ would be a better start. Hell current man pages
would also be nice :)

The MGA(4) man page mentions nothing about HAL and does not even mention
the G450 and G550 graphics cards.

I would be happy to document anything people feel should be documented.

Re: [XFree86] fatal server error: no screen found

[Lionel Lecoq]

A few more details would be helpful (monitor, graphic card, full XF86Config, full log)
However , from the parsing error and the fact that you are not using the standard
/etc/X11/XF86Config resp. /etc/X11/XF86Config-4 (which would be the RH 7.x version for 
X 4.x.x) I
wonder whether you are not using an XF86Config which has a X 3.3.6 format rather than 
the
different format for X 4.x.x (Check whether your config file has a Keyboard and 
pointer section *
version 3.3.6* rather than two input device sections *version X 4.x.x*)

This log line looks suspicious:

I don't know why it should use anything but a 1024 pitch.


Can you try non-Mandrake 4.2.1 binaries and if that doesn't work either
a 4.2.99.x snapshot?

[XFree86] Rules for an Autoreply bot

[John Tapsell]

Hi,
  As some of you know, I'm working on a knowledge based system (a bot) that 
checks incomming emails against a database of rules, to try to reduce the 
workload of the volunteers here.

  The trouble is that the same questions keep being asked.
  Hopefully I can reduce the workload, but give a better response to people.

  Attached is the rules I have so far.

  The rules _really_ need looking over, and touched up.

  Please please try and clean up anything you know to be incorrect, and add 
anything that needs adding.

  An email has to match every  rule, and every  rule,  Matches 
inside a  rule allow only one match to be made.

JohnFlux



  
   As of Red Hat 8.0 the default is to use only /etc/X11/XF86Config.  The
   use of /etc/X11/XF86Config-4 was used up until then because of the
   desire to support both XFree86-3.3.6 and XFree86-4.x.x.  At the same
   time the older RedHat written "Xconfigurator" tool was dropped and a new
   "redhat-config-xfree86" tool introduced.

   All RedHat 8.0 machines run the font server on 7100.

Hi!

I'm having problems with my debian...

I don't know if this is a server crash or what it is,
but I've been trying different combinations of values
and it doesn't work...

I followed Nvidia's instructions for their drivers...

I send you the server config and the failure log...

I use Geforce2 GTS (creative) and Monitor LG flatron

...I hope this is useful for you... anyway, if you
think that I can do something for configuring it
properly, please tell me ;-)

thanks!!

Sounds like you don't have xfs (the font server) configured to start

[Rafael Felix Correa]

Something really weird are happening with my Xfree86.
Everytime I need to start it, I need also to configure
first. It shouldn´t be this way! The right thing is to
configure once and start it normally after that.
When i start without configuring it, appears a message
like this: "Coudn´t find default font fixed".
Anyway, i´m sending the log file attached with this
message, for more details.

[XFree86] xkb keymap missing?

[Otto Waltari]

Hello.
I got this problem after I upgraded my X from 4.0.1 to 4.2.1.
It causes for example that AltGr is disabled and couple other keys too.
This line below is all the problem tells about itself:

Couldn't load XKB keymap, falling back to pre-XKB keymap

I guess it's the xkb keymap path that is poiting wrong (or keymap in the
wrong path), but where should it be? And what are those keymaps called
(.kmp, .kmap.gz), and what is the default path, and can it be changed
somewhere? The layout I'll be using is .fi, so I suppose it has to be some
.fi specific keymap.

Thanks in advance

Greetings Otto Waltari

XFree86 code and drivers are mostly platform independant. Most of the
general documentation applies to alpha as well as ix86 (and other)
architectures. I fear the only documentation of the alpha MD code is
the source. That is mostly in 
xc/programs/Xserver/hw/xfree86/os-support/bsd/bsd_video.c  and 
xc/programs/Xserver/hw/xfree86/os-support/shared/xf86Axp.c
in your case.

You should provide more information on the problems you're
seeing. It's not possible to diagnose what's wrong with so little
information.  
Looking at /var/log/XFree86.0.log for obvious error messages is
the first step. 
If you don't find anything obvious, send it to this list, along with
other information that may be relevant (like are you using startx or
xdm to launch the server, dmesg command output,...)

If you don't have that file, then the X server is not even starting
and the problem is not in the X server itself.
