Public bug reported: I upgraded today and I'm not having some video issues. xrandr hates me and won't let me change the display setup to use my external display and second monitor. I get this:
> xrandr: Failed to get size of gamma for output default > Screen 0: minimum 800 x 600, current 1280 x 800, maximum 1280 x 800 > default connected 1280x800+0+0 0mm x 0mm > 1280x800 0.0* > 1024x768 61.0 > 960x600 0.0 > 800x600 61.0 It's not seeing any other display. I got thinking that the intel driver might not be loading right. Below is a lot of info, it seems like the intel driver isn't getting setup right for the device and I'm not sure where to look from here. Any hints/tips are appreciated. xorg packages: xorg 1:7.6+7ubuntu7 xorg-docs-core 1:1.6-1ubuntu2 xserver-xorg 1:7.6+7ubuntu7 xserver-xorg-core 2:1.10.4-1ubuntu4.2 xserver-xorg-input-all 1:7.6+7ubuntu7 xserver-xorg-input-evdev 1:2.6.0-1ubuntu13 xserver-xorg-input-mouse 1:1.7.1-1 X.Org xserver-xorg-input-synaptics 1.4.1-1ubuntu2 xserver-xorg-input-vmmouse 1:12.7.0-2 X.Org xserver-xorg-input-wacom 1:0.11.0-0ubuntu2 xserver-xorg-video-all 1:7.6+7ubuntu7 xserver-xorg-video-displaylink 0.3-0ubuntu9 xserver-xorg-video-fbdev 1:0.4.2-3ubuntu6 xserver-xorg-video-intel 2:2.15.901-1ubuntu2.1 And my dmesg input: [ 0.899835] intel_idle: MWAIT substates: 0x1120 [ 0.899837] intel_idle: v0.4 model 0x25 [ 0.899838] intel_idle: lapic_timer_reliable_states 0xffffffff [ 0.900660] ACPI: acpi_idle yielding to intel_idle [ 1.182730] agpgart-intel 0000:00:00.0: Intel HD Graphics Chipset [ 1.182886] agpgart-intel 0000:00:00.0: detected gtt size: 2097152K total, 262144K mappable [ 1.183841] agpgart-intel 0000:00:00.0: detected 32768K stolen memory [ 1.183982] agpgart-intel 0000:00:00.0: AGP aperture is 256M @ 0xd0000000 [ 3.310477] intel ips 0000:00:1f.6: CPU TDP doesn't match expected value (found 25, expected 29) [ 3.310494] intel ips 0000:00:1f.6: PCI INT D -> GSI 19 (level, low) -> IRQ 19 [ 3.310554] intel ips 0000:00:1f.6: failed to get i915 symbols, graphics turbo disabled [ 3.310637] intel ips 0000:00:1f.6: IPS driver initialized, MCP temp limit 90 [ 8.506015] intel ips 0000:00:1f.6: i915 driver attached, reenabling gpu turbo [ 13.503190] intel ips 0000:00:1f.6: MCP limit exceeded: Avg power 44300, limit 35000 [ 18.500465] intel ips 0000:00:1f.6: MCP limit exceeded: Avg power 44428, limit 35000 Now, comparing that to a known "good" working I notice that I'm missing some lines [ 1.899778] fbcon: inteldrmfb (fb0) is primary device [ 1.899833] fb0: inteldrmfb frame buffer device His complete dmesg [ 0.899835] intel_idle: MWAIT substates: 0x1120 [ 0.899837] intel_idle: v0.4 model 0x25 [ 0.899838] intel_idle: lapic_timer_reliable_states 0xffffffff [ 0.900660] ACPI: acpi_idle yielding to intel_idle [ 1.182730] agpgart-intel 0000:00:00.0: Intel HD Graphics Chipset [ 1.182886] agpgart-intel 0000:00:00.0: detected gtt size: 2097152K total, 262144K mappable [ 1.183841] agpgart-intel 0000:00:00.0: detected 32768K stolen memory [ 1.183982] agpgart-intel 0000:00:00.0: AGP aperture is 256M @ 0xd0000000 [ 3.310477] intel ips 0000:00:1f.6: CPU TDP doesn't match expected value (found 25, expected 29) [ 3.310494] intel ips 0000:00:1f.6: PCI INT D -> GSI 19 (level, low) -> IRQ 19 [ 3.310554] intel ips 0000:00:1f.6: failed to get i915 symbols, graphics turbo disabled [ 3.310637] intel ips 0000:00:1f.6: IPS driver initialized, MCP temp limit 90 [ 8.506015] intel ips 0000:00:1f.6: i915 driver attached, reenabling gpu turbo [ 13.503190] intel ips 0000:00:1f.6: MCP limit exceeded: Avg power 44300, limit 35000 [ 18.500465] intel ips 0000:00:1f.6: MCP limit exceeded: Avg power 44428, limit 35000 [ 0.764578] intel_idle: MWAIT substates: 0x21120 [ 0.764579] intel_idle: v0.4 model 0x2A [ 0.764581] intel_idle: lapic_timer_reliable_states 0xffffffff [ 0.765279] ACPI: acpi_idle yielding to intel_idle [ 0.910860] agpgart-intel 0000:00:00.0: Intel Sandybridge Chipset [ 0.910953] agpgart-intel 0000:00:00.0: detected gtt size: 2097152K total, 262144K mappable [ 0.911953] agpgart-intel 0000:00:00.0: detected 65536K stolen memory [ 0.912048] agpgart-intel 0000:00:00.0: AGP aperture is 256M @ 0xe0000000 [ 1.899778] fbcon: inteldrmfb (fb0) is primary device [ 1.899833] fb0: inteldrmfb frame buffer device ProblemType: Bug DistroRelease: Ubuntu 11.10 Package: xorg 1:7.6+7ubuntu7 ProcVersionSignature: Ubuntu 3.0.0-14.23-generic 3.0.9 Uname: Linux 3.0.0-14-generic x86_64 .tmp.unity.support.test.1: ApportVersion: 1.23-0ubuntu4 Architecture: amd64 CompizPlugins: [core,bailer,detection,composite,opengl,decor,vpswitch,resize,imgpng,compiztoolbox,move,regex,gnomecompat,place,mousepoll,grid,snap,commands,unitymtgrabhandles,animation,wall,session,workarounds,fade,expo,scale,ezoom,unityshell] CompositorRunning: None Date: Mon Dec 19 13:03:03 2011 DistUpgraded: Fresh install DistroCodename: oneiric DistroVariant: ubuntu ExtraDebuggingInterest: Yes, whatever it takes to get this fixed in Ubuntu GraphicsCard: Intel Corporation Core Processor Integrated Graphics Controller [8086:0046] (rev 02) (prog-if 00 [VGA controller]) Subsystem: Lenovo Device [17aa:215a] InstallationMedia: Ubuntu 11.10 "Oneiric Ocelot" -
