Re: 2.6.30-rc2 + xorg-intel-2.7.0 + DRM_I915_KMS = corruption

2009-04-29 Thread Mateusz Kaduk
This is realy old issue now. Which I reported at begining of this month but
exist much longer.

https://bugs.freedesktop.org/show_bug.cgi?id=20896

Two more people also experience this. This only happens with KMS mode.
I am using 1.6.1 xorg/mesa master/ xf86-intel master and libdrm 2.4.9 kernel
2.6.30-rc3-git5.

I hope someone can soleve this some day.

This is fixed with Kernel 2.6.30-rc3-git6 for me, so you might try this
one.

 Apparently I was missing a key bit and had to enable fbdev from the
 command line:
 
 kernel /kernel-2.6-drm root=/dev/sda2
 video=intelfb:mode=1440x900...@75,accel,hwcursor
 
 However I still saw the same corruption kick in when GDM started. I
 couldn't switch mode either which kinda defeated the point.

The above seems to indicate that you have some FB drivers built into
your kernel; that will likely fail in weird ways.  Try disabling all
the FB drivers, but keep CONFIG_FRAMEBUFFER_CONSOLE enabled.  Then when
you load the i915 driver you should get a nice console.

 I am seeing a:
 
 [6.751092] BUG: using smp_processor_id() in preemptible []
 code: modprobe/3078
 [6.751100] caller is smp_call_function_many+0x29/0x1bd
 [6.751103] Pid: 3078, comm: modprobe Not tainted 2.6.30-rc2-ajb
 #56
 
 But I think it's unrelated to any X woes. Shall detail in another
 message.
 

hm, are you using the xf86-video-intel git-branch 2.7? if i use that,
i need a kernel fix queued in eanholts for-linus git-tree or else i
also get unusable X. 

i assumed that this was because of some not-yet-released fixes
on the 2.7-branch which will get released as soon as erics queue is
merged? but i didn't double check ...  maybe the released version is
also broken in this regard for me

No, I'm using the actual released 2.7.0 driver (as built via a simple
Gentoo ebuild)

 i assumed that this was because of some not-yet-released fixes
 on the 2.7-branch which will get released as soon as erics queue is
 merged? but i didn't double check ...  maybe the released version is
 also broken in this regard for me

I tried again with the latest drm-intel kernel git tree @

drm/i915: Enable ASLE if present

The changes to opregion initialisation order meant that the ASLE setup
code might not be run at the correct time. Ensure that the interrupts are
set up.

Still broken :-(
