Re: Intel (Xorg-7.6): No kernel modesetting driver detected
2011/1/20 Timo Jyrinki timo.jyri...@gmail.com: Ubuntu's 2.6.37 kernel config as the basis, so CONFIG_DRM_I915=m and CONFIG_DRM_I915_KMS=y are there. The kernel in use is edp-fixes-2 and I also gave him drm-intel-fixes one with the same result. Only vesa driver works for him for now. Just to not leave loose ends, for some reason I needed to instruct the person I'm helping with also add i915.modeset=1 to the kernel bootline. Meanwhile I also switched to drm-intel-next, which, if I understood correctly, has a bit different set of fixes than edp-fixes-2. I'll have him test also the edp-fixes-2 branch at some point, since that would be closer to a released kernel than the current drm-intel-next. Of course, having the proper set of patches in 2.6.37.x would be nice as well. -Timo ___ xorg@lists.freedesktop.org: X.Org support Archives: http://lists.freedesktop.org/archives/xorg Info: http://lists.freedesktop.org/mailman/listinfo/xorg Your subscription address: arch...@mail-archive.com

You need to enable kernel modesetting to use the current stable releases of -intel. Check you have CONFIG_DRM_I915 and CONFIG_DRM_I915_KMS enabled for your kernel. The latter can be optionally replaced with i915.modeset on the boot command line or at module load time.

On the 2.6.36.2 (the one I started this thread on), I always had (just in case): --- Direct Rendering Manager (...) ... Intel I810 Intel 830M, 845G, 852GM, 855GM, 865G i830 driver i915 driver [ ] Enable modesetting on intel by default For some reason, the boot parameter you suggested (grub excerpt): kernel /boot/LFSkernel root=/dev/sda3 i915.modeset=1 does not work. The system remains regular (non-KMS), thus the Original Post (problem) 2. I tried your suggestion on 2.6.36.3 and 2.6.37 with CONFIG_DRM_I915_KMS hard-wired. The intel driver works perfectly in graphics now (i.e., problem solved) Unfortunately, I end up with a situation where, in command (i.e., VGA Text) mode, I lose my long-beloved 80x25 full screen resolution and get _stuck_ with something like 240x67 (1920x1080? ) - also full wide-screen (the monitor is 16:9, DVI). A grub line like kernel /boot/LFSkernel root=/dev/sda3 i915.modeset=0 clumsy as it may be, when I know in advance I'd be working in command mode, does _not_ work. The system boots KMS regardless. Is there a way, once up in KMS, to dynamically switch to my old VGA Text mode (from this crazy 240x67) and, ideally, back to KMS too?

Re: Intel (Xorg-7.6): No kernel modesetting driver detected
2011/1/20 Adam Jackson a...@nwnk.net: Look, do what you have to do, just show us the whole file. I actually have a related similar Xorg.0.log, and since alupu's attachments still didn't show the kms related line which I assume he was initially talking about, I'm attaching this log here. I don't know if it helps much, the situation I have is that I'm trying to remote debug / help a co-worker get his new Dell Latitude E6510 running (the terrible bug 29278 ie. black screen), but I've been unsuccessful. I'm not sure if the lack of kernel modesetting problem mentioned in the Xorg.0.log is some kind of newbie problem that I'm just not realizing since I don't have the laptop myself in my hands. The i915 module _is_ loaded, and there is nothing special in dmesg (and only kernel parameters are quiet splash). However according to him the screen (now not blank black with the custom kernel) seemed normal 80x25 ie. somehow not mode-setting kind of screen. Or it might be possibly because of the custom kernel build instead of Ubuntu build, unless i915 should always select some higher native resolution which would automatically result in a smaller font. Nevertheless there is no log indication of kms failing to initialize or so. I used Ubuntu's 2.6.37 kernel config as the basis, so CONFIG_DRM_I915=m and CONFIG_DRM_I915_KMS=y are there. The kernel in use is edp-fixes-2 and I also gave him drm-intel-fixes one with the same result. Only vesa driver works for him for now. -Timo ---some dmesg lines from the same run as Xorg.0.log--- (among else all found with agpgart, drm, and i915) --- [0.00] Linux version 2.6.37-rc8-custom (root@duuni) (gcc version 4.4.3 (Ubuntu 4.4.3-4ubuntu5) ) #1 SMP Tue Jan 18 16:19:42 EET 2011 [0.00] Command line: BOOT_IMAGE=/vmlinuz-2.6.37-rc8-custom root=UUID=4e9084f5-8bb9-4422-a96b-b829f3907fb9 ro quiet splash --- [0.00] DMI: 02K3Y4/Latitude E6510, BIOS A06 11/20/2010 --- [4.658935] Linux agpgart interface v0.103 [4.659009] agpgart-intel :00:00.0: Intel HD Graphics Chipset [4.659111] agpgart-intel :00:00.0: detected gtt size: 2097152K total, 262144K mappable [4.659763] agpgart-intel :00:00.0: detected 32768K stolen memory [4.671390] ACPI: Battery Slot [BAT0] (battery present) [4.727156] agpgart-intel :00:00.0: AGP aperture is 256M @ 0xe000 --- [ 17.432277] intel ips :00:1f.6: CPU TDP doesn't match expected value (found 25, expected 29) [ 17.432288] intel ips :00:1f.6: PCI INT C - GSI 18 (level, low) - IRQ 18 [ 17.432393] intel ips :00:1f.6: failed to get i915 symbols, graphics turbo disabled [ 17.432529] intel ips :00:1f.6: IPS driver initialized, MCP temp limit 90 --- [ 17.506230] [drm] Initialized drm 1.1.0 20060810 [ 17.572270] pci :00:02.0: PCI INT A - GSI 16 (level, low) - IRQ 16 [ 17.572274] pci :00:02.0: setting latency timer to 64 --- [ 18.137814] pci :00:02.0: irq 45 for MSI/MSI-X [ 18.137819] [drm] Supports vblank timestamp caching Rev 1 (10.10.2010).

Regardless, to recap my situation: 1. With intel-2.13.0 driver, Xorg-7.6 fails to start up with (EE) intel(0): No kernel modesetting driver detected 2. Now, with the newly released intel-2.14.0 driver Xorg-7.6 fails to start up with (EE) No devices detected. The latter behavior is what is shown in the 'Xorg.0.log' I attached for us to analyze and hopefully to fix the intel driver (as I mentioned, the vesa driver works OK, so the failure appears strictly related to the intel driver). Note, the previous error (2.13.0 - No modesetting) cannot be seen. I see two possibilities: 2.1. In changing the driver from 13 to 14 the bug was fixed. 2.2. The current error (No devices) comes first and, because of the ensuing crash, you don't get a chance to enjoy the modesetting one (so to speak).

I think he knew that judging by what he wrote, but yes, randr 1.2/1.3 can do placement too. Just look at the output from xrandr command and the --help it provides :) Col Back to the original topic. I have 2.6.29 running but KMS always locks up the laptop when X starts. And 3D is horribly slow. While glxgears has sped up 2131 frames in 5.0 seconds = 426.172 FPS 2141 frames in 5.0 seconds = 428.160 FPS 2143 frames in 5.0 seconds = 428.454 FPS 2129 frames in 5.0 seconds = 425.781 FPS my real benchmark chromium B.S.U dropped from high 50's to 8FPS. Wow is back to unplayable and opengl still doesn't work.

Kernel modesetting
I have a laptop with an intel VGA controller, and I'd like to try the new kernel modesetting from the 2.6.29 kernel. What xorg intel driver version, xorg version, etc do I need to try this out? Also, will it be possible to use DRI and Xinerama in this configuration, or is that impossible for some other reason?

Forcing Option Noaccel seems to fix the hang in X if you have 2048 pixels width of display on Intel video (even though it claims anyway to be disabling acceleration it apparently doesn't do it right) Without that hack you can't do large displays on things like Fedora 10, only on Fedora 9 ___ xorg mailing list xorg@lists.freedesktop.org http://lists.freedesktop.org/mailman/listinfo/xorg

Regards, Tino ___ xorg mailing list xorg@lists.freedesktop.org http://lists.freedesktop.org/mailman/listinfo/xorg Hi! The Intel Xorg driver works with Xinerama. I'm writing you this half on my 22-Monitor and half on my Laptop's LVDS. And it continually worked since i bought my monitor 2 years ago. Currently I'm on the git-version of the intel-driver as of march 19th. perhaps your statement about the intel xorg-driver not working with xinerama is too broad? This version works with both, KMS and Non-KMS. The only kink is, that with KMS the output's are numbered (VGA vs VGA1 and LVDS vs LVDS1) so you have to extend your xorg-monitor-configuration for these outputs) The only bug in KMS that keeps me from defaulting to it, is http://bugs.freedesktop.org/show_bug.cgi?id=20666 (slow rxvt rendering), but i have no time to pursue this issue any further. For KMS i have updated also my xorg-server and various dependencies to the git-versions.
