[Xpert]X Window Failure
If someone could look at the extract from the /var/log/messages file below, to see if you can see why I can't get my X window back I would really appreciate it. (Or if there is a quick solution like reinstalling X window that would be good too) Basically, the only things that I can recall happening before the problem was I changed permissions to a lower user on the following: /usr /usr/sbin /usr/sbin/httpd /etc /etc/httpd I have now changed these back to root. Also I was trying to unsubscribe from a mailing list in Netscape when Netscape crashed, and popped up an error window (Netscape Communicator) asking me to fill in what I did before it crashed. After I completed it I was not able to launch Netscape again. I logged out and then could not launch X window. /etc/hotplug/net.agent: net unregister event not supported gdm (pam_unix) [1216] session closed for user root gdm [1216]: gdm_slave_xioerror_handler: fatal X error - restarting: 0 modprobe:modprobe: can't locate module char-major-81 gdm [1208] deal_with_x_crashes: running the xkeepscrashing script su (pam_unix) [5427] session opened for user nobody by (uid=0) gdm [1208] failed to start X server several times in a short time period: disabling display:0 login (pam_unix) [1208]: authentication failure: logname=login uid=0 euid=0 tty=tty1 ruser= rhost= user=shutdown iscsi:iscsilun shutdown failed isapnp: no plug and play device found sendmail:sendmail startup failed iscsi [983] no targets in configuration file /etc/iscsi.conf iscsi [983] invalid configuration check /etc/iscsi.conf xfs: ignoring path element /usr/X11R6/lib/X11/fonts/100dpi unscaled unreadable -"--- login [1198] failed login 1 from (null) for root, authentication failure Also XFS will not launch or shutdown in boot up/down process.

If you diff the 2 files, you will notice that not too much changes...but then I don't know how to read the scanpci output, so... :) Yes, that would be nice. Do a breakpoint immediately after the xf86ExecX86int10() function so you can see if it comes back from POSTing. At least we are now sure it was not the routine that reads the PCI BIOS. This had been run successful when you reached the breakpoint. When you are at the breakpoint you could examine the log for something strange.

[Xpert]XFree86 CVS and 1600x1024 (DVI) / Radeon
With the flurry of commits over the last few weeks, I figured it would be worth installing XFree86 CVS and check out RandR, Xcursor and the new ATI acceleration. Unfortunately, X comes up with a root window size of 1600x1024 (reported by xdpyinfo) but is really only outputting 1280x1024 (reported by my SGI MultiLink adapter). All of this flows through a Radeon VE to my SGI 1600SW flat panel. You can physically move windows off the visible screen, so the allocated root window is probably actually 1600x1024. I also manually defined the 1600x1024 modeline, which I grabbed from an old Mark V post in the archives, and XFree86 SEGV'd. Any ideas? I also noticed that xrandr died with BadParameter errors for anything other than changing the screen resolution. I'm guessing the ATI driver needs updating to handle the new extension. Oh, and just to put every question in a single e-mail, even in 24bpp, pixmaps appear to be 16bpp. My web page (in Mozilla), for example, looks substantially different between my S3 based notebook in 24bpp and my Radeon VE based desktop in 24bpp. Is there a pixmap depth limitation in the radeon driver? I've attached the usual XFree86 logs for completeness. Note that this is on RH8, gcc 3.2. Jeff This is a pre-release version of XFree86, and is not supported in any way.

Hmm. The Radeon driver mode selection code was restructured during the RandR integration, it's quite possible that some mode lines aren't getting properly added. But, your log file seems to list 1600x1024 as a valid mode, so I'm a bit confused. What does 'xrandr' list as valid sizes? Any ideas? I also noticed that xrandr died with BadParameter errors for anything other than changing the screen resolution. I'm guessing the ATI driver needs updating to handle the new extension. The current RandR support in the core server is limited to size changes; rotation and reflection would have entailed some more invasive changes to the acceleration code that seemed inappropriate at this point in the release cycle. Oh, and just to put every question in a single e-mail, even in 24bpp, pixmaps appear to be 16bpp. The log you enclosed showed the screen running at 16bpp; I assume setting the depth to 24 switches that to 32bpp?

Sorry for the long quote above, but this should be almost the last mail in this thread. I've tested with CVS XFree86, and all is well. Bus mastering gets disabled when switched to VT but gets enabled again when switching back to X. The problem WAS that this re-enabling did not always take place before Marc's changes, which is why we added the explicit call to do this. I've checked the code in current XFree86 CVS, but would very much like to know (just for interest's sake) WHERE exactly the PCI enable (or whatnot) is called from that re-enables bus mastering after a VT switch. Thanks and my apologies for the upset. I haven't tested the current CVS stuff out with DRI yet for this problem. I can say 100% that this patch both for Radeon and Rage 128 has solved the lockup problems on over 100 users of Red Hat Linux (after that I stopped keeping track), and has caused no negative effects. I'm not sure if it is the correct solution to the problem, or the best solution, but it definitely was _a_ solution, and one certainly acceptable to me as it solves lockups that occured for numerous users for 9 months+. If the CVS code has a solution in it that makes the patch Charl created unnecessary, that's even better. If the CVS code does lockup however, then I think it makes sense to put Charl's patch back in. -- Mike A. Harris ___ Xpert mailing list [EMAIL PROTECTED] http://XFree86.Org/mailman/listinfo/xpert
Re: [Xpert]Colormap Allocation problems under Linux 7.3

The actual X server used is the XFree86, and I tested it with nv and nvidia card drivers and minimum color resources requested (solid color background in the root window, no Netscape, etc.) The problem looks the same under KDE or GNOME desktops. Two to four cells are allocated in the 8-bit color mode (PseudoColor). In the 24-bit TrueColor only the read-only (shared) colors can be installed in the colormap which limits the application. A bare-bones failsafe environment in the 8-bit color yields the same results as the 24-bit color. Here my humble opinion. If you need to have read/write colours in your application, your application should be able to use a private colormap (man XCreateColormap). If you can allocate your colours, fine, if not create a private color map. I do not think that XFree cvs will solve allocation pbs in general. If you start your server with XRender (which allocate only 85 colors) and then start, says, a kde application (without limiting the colors to 64) then almsot surly all the colours will be allocated. So your application will be unusable without a private cmap. About read-only color in PseudoColor mode, I suggest to take the more close colour in the used colormap if XAllocColor fail.

When X Server start no problems are reported but the screen goes to standby mode. Of course there is nothing on the screen and moreover when I switch desktops the screen does not turn on. However the sustem keeps working ok and does not halt. I have tried disabling acceleration (noaccel) and the card works ok. Also the VESA driver works fine. The video card works fine in Win32. I'm sending you my config file and the X Server log. Your video card was not made by ATI. ATI made video hardware has a vendor ID and subvendor ID of 0x1002, yours has a subvendor ID of 0x174b, which is a Powered by ATI board made by PC Partner Limited. From your log file: (II) PCI: 01:00:0: chip 1002,5157 card 174b,7161 rev 00 class 03,00,00 hdr 00 ATI made chip ATI didn't make card -- Mike A.

If this function is expected to create a SIGFPE, why isn't it trapped and handled? It's actually a poorly named function all around IMHO. A better name would be s/katmai/sse/ -- Mike A.
