Re: xorg can't load qxl driver
Thanks Liang, but that driver still produces a segfault. If, as you say, it is extremely unstable that is not a good long term solution to my problem. The bug report has been filed and I'm content to leave it at that and explore other options, such as setting up a pulseaudio server on my VM.

Hi, Brian, I've test qxl driver on 32bit ubuntu, it works, but extremely unstable. I attached my compiled so module and related files. they may work on your box too. BTW: when compile qxl from git, I get a xorg-macros error. ___ 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: bri...@io.com ___ 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
Re: xorg can't load qxl driver
The page at The page http://www.cs.rug.nl/~jurjen/ApprenticesNotes/ch28s06.html indicates the Author couldn't get it going the way he was trying. Yes, once I finished and re-read the instructions I saw the author was having the exact same problem I was.

Re: xorg can't load qxl driver
It looks like a problem fixed in offical git commit [1], you may try to patch it and try again. Cool, I'll give that a try. I downloaded the gzipped file from that link and extracted it into my /usr/lib/xorg/modules/drivers. Now what do I do with it? There is no configure and no makefile. Do I just overwrite the existing qxl driver sources with it and remake? BTW: QXL Driver is included in debian unstable, you may build it for you ubuntu. What does that mean? How would I do this? Do I need to download something else?

Re: xorg can't load qxl driver
Are you still working from the RedHat flavored copy of spice? Have you read much at http://www.spice-space.org/ ? I don't think RedHat based spice is going to fly in a Debian/Ubuntu setup, so many little things different in the distros. Going direct from the source has best chance IMHO.

xorg can't load qxl driver
I've been trying to get Red Hat's Spice loaded to use for my Ubuntu VM for more than a month now. I finally got the full spice package installed and configured but it needs qxl drivers loaded in x windows which so far I've been unable to accomplish. I followed the instructions here: http://www.cs.rug.nl/~jurjen/ApprenticesNotes/ch28s06.html However, when I edit the xorg.conf file to load the qxl drivers I installed, then stop and start gdm it complains that it can't find drivers qxl and void and puts me into low graphics mode. When I try to reinstall the drivers, it says latest drivers already installed nothing left to do. I don't understand why this isn't working. The drivers are installed, the hardware shows up, the xorg.conf has been modified. Are the istructions relating to the xorg.conf incorrect? That's the only thing I can think of.

Re: xorg can't load qxl driver
I followed the instructions here: http://www.cs.rug.nl/~jurjen/ApprenticesNotes/ch28s06.html snip Where is the qxl driver being installed? Is it the same place that the server expects to find drivers? The normal place would be something like /usr/lib/xorg/modules/drivers if you're on x86. I see the instructions there are instructing you to pass --libdir=/usr/lib64 when building qxl. Don't do that if you're not on x86_64. On the other hand, I don't know why you don't have the void input driver. Maybe it's not installed. I don't know the debian/ubuntu package name, but it might be xserver-xorg-input-void.
