Subject:[Xpert]V_BIOS woes

I have an SS50 mini PC from Shuttle, and it has on board SiS 6325 AGP
video, as well as a Radeon 7500 PCI which I added.

There are 2 versions of XFree86 which I've tried: 4.2.1-4 from Debian,
and CVS HEAD. The only change I have made to the Debian version is
adding the sis driver from Thomas Winischhofer 
http://www.winischhofer.net/sis/sis_drv.o_4.2.1_261102-1.tar.gz
to get the sis card recognized. I've tried the HEAD version as is, downloaded
yesterday.

I am trying to get Xinerama to work, which it almost does, but then
crashes.

There are 2x2 configurations I'm using. One dimension is setting in my
BIOS setup which video card is initialized as primary: ATI or SiS.
The other dimension is the XFree86 version: Debian or HEAD.

The only configuration which initializes all the cards and displays
a picture across both of them is Debian-SiSPrimary. That is, I set
the BIOS to initalize the SiS card first, and rtun the 4.2.1-4 Debian
version. Unfortunately, this crashes very soon after I login and
start to move windows between the two screens.

In the other 3 configurations, I get trouble with not finding V_BIOS
and the non-primary card doesn't get initalized at all. A quick
table:

Version  PrimaryResult
-
HEAD SiSSiS works, ATI driver can't find V_BIOS or init the card
HEAD ATIATI works, SiS driver can't find V_BIOS or init the card
4.2.1-4  SiSBoth cards work, int10 finds both V_BIOSes
4.2.1-4  ATIATI works, SiS driver can't find V_BIOS or init the card


I'm sure something odd is happening deep with int10, and something between
4.2.1.1 and HEAD has broken at least some previously working configurations.

I'm attaching lspci -vvv for both configurations, with ATI as primary
card and SiS as primary card.

I'm also attaching all 4 XFree86 logs for the configurations in the
table above.

It would be nice to get int10 working to find V_BIOS in all situations.
Any help would be appreciated, and I'll be happy to do anything necessary
to provide information to smart int10/pci hackers.


Thanks,

Adam Goode

You should configure your software to have a real name in the mail
headers, and include a useful subject on further mailing list posts.
This would help you avoid being labelled as spam.

(You also need to get a better ISP, but I can understand that is
sometimes difficult.)

I would recommend getting a more recent Linux rather than attempting to
use an ancient version of RedHat.  RH5.2 shipped with XFree86 3.3.2.3,
which has absolutely no support for the SiS620 (the support appeared
sometime before 3.3.6).  At best, you'd have to download RPMs for a more
recent XFree86; at worst, you'd be recompiling XFree86.

Even RedHat 6.x should be able to support the SiS 620.

Yes, 3D support will be in XFree86 4.3.0, if you can't wait for that see

Sounds like the X server crashes, and kdm spawns another one. Using
startx or xinit instead might give a hint about the cause of the crash,
a common problem is the TrueType font renderer modules like freetype.

In current CVS the server supports the -br command line option for this.

I would suggest that you don't use X 3.3, it's too old. You won't get 
good support for it, and 4.x is a considerable improvement anyway.

In any case, the Trio3D cards (and specifically the Trio3D/2X) is 
supported by the s3virge driver in 4.2.1 according to:

http://www.xfree86.org/current/Status28.html#28

and provide accelerated support.

Your original problem just sounds like a issue with setting up the 
XF86Config file, or using the VGA driver.  'xf86config' does a better 
job than writing the config file from scratch free-form, but I've 
usually found it necessary to edit it afterwards for best results. 
Sometimes, it's even necessary to lie in this file to get it to work 
(laptops, usually).

Try re-installing XFree86 4.2 (I'd suggest not installing it as a 
package, but instead building it from source via the 'ports' mechanism 
if you have a reasonably fast machine - this way you can update it later 
most conveniently) and running XFree86 -configure (you'll need to be 
root).

The config file this generated should be a good start, and you can edit 
it to fix things like keyboard maps, mouse settings (if you're using 
'moused', make sure you use Proto 'Auto' and specify '/dev/sysmouse' as 
the mouse device), and the monitor refresh ranges etc.

When you think it's close, run it and see.

If it blows up and doesn't work at all, then the logged output of the X 
server would be a good thing to provide to the list for more detailed 
help.

If you don't get the expected resolution, then you should be able to 
figure out why (hopefully ;-) from looking at the X server output, and 
address it in the XF86Config file.

Once it's close, you can use 'xvidtune' to generate a custom modeline 
for your card/monitor if you need to.


HTH.

[Xpert]Locale warnings and messed up interfaces

2002-12-29 Thread Micah Galizia
Hello, I was wondering if anyone could give me some insight into fixing 
my locale problem.  Whenever I load a program (such as xfontsel, xman, 
etc), I get locale warnings such as:

Warning: locale not supported by Xlib, locale set to C
Warning: X locale modifiers not supported, using default
Warning: app-defaults file not properly installed.
Warning: Unable to load any usable fontset

When I was running X 4.2.1 there were no problems, but then I upgraded 
to fontconfig (using Xrender, Xft2, and fontconfig from cvs), and I 
started getting these Warnings.  Along with the warnings, the programs 
that give them have their interface all messed up.  xfontsel has its 
menu titles replaced by fieldn (for 0 <= n <= 13), and no text is 
rendered.  In other programs I get similar errors.

Programs and libs that dont use xlib (gtk+/pango) all work without 
problems, so I have no idea what to do.

Any help or suggestions would be appreciated.

TIA

[Xpert]fullscreen xawtv and tearing...

2002-12-29 Thread Adam K Kirchhoff
Hello folks,

I was hoping someone could help me out.  I have two computers, one
with a single proc P4 on an i845 motherboard, and one with dual proc P3s
on a VIA motherboard.  Both have similar Radeon 8500s in them, and both 
have bt848 cards.

On the i845 system, if I go fullscreen with xawtv, the picture is 
nice, crisp, and clear.   On the VIA system, if I go full screen with 
xawtv, the entire right side of the picture starts to tear.

Anyone know what would be causing this problem and how it can be 
fixed?

Hi !

I have some problems with installing X server and making it work I can't solwe on my

After setting all the parameters in the Sysinstall's X configuration meny (graphical 
one) and saving it in the conf file, I 
get the msg that the configuration was not sucessful and that I can do it again...
When running xf86config, I set all parameters according to the hardware, I get no err 
msg (except for one saying that 
my card S3Trio 3D/2x is not supported and it will use default VGA drivers), but when I 
start X I get the picture on the 
half of my screen in extremely low resolution.

I have read in the Handbook that the new version of X (4.x) doesn't have as meny 
grapical adatpers supported as the 
old version (3.x). 
Then, I have installed FreeBSD without X and tried to install it(X server 3.3.6.9 )
