will do, when I'll have more info, I'll update.
Greetings Michel,
I've tried to track the source if that error, I've enabled dbg prints
in libdrm and found this:
(II) [KMS] Kernel modesetting enabled.
drmOpenDevice: node name is /dev/dri/card0
drmOpenDevice: open result is 11, (OK)
drmOpenByBusid: Searching for BusID pci:0000:06:00.0
drmOpenDevice: node name is /dev/dri/card0
drmOpenDevice: open result is 11, (OK)
drmOpenByBusid: drmOpenMinor returns 11
drmOpenByBusid: drmGetBusid reports pci:0000:00:02.0
drmOpenDevice: node name is /dev/dri/card1
drmOpenDevice: open result is -1, (Invalid argument)
drmOpenByBusid: drmOpenMinor returns -22
drmOpenDevice: node name is /dev/dri/card2
drmOpenDevice: open result is -1, (Invalid argument)
looking in the code I see this:
fd = open(buf, O_RDWR, 0);
drmMsg("drmOpenDevice: open result is %d, (%s)\n",
fd, fd < 0 ? strerror(errno) : "OK");
if (fd >= 0)
return fd;
I think that the issue might be that the file cannot be opened for
that mode as the path is printed above and it is ok.
any ideas what might it be?
I had a similar problem over the last weeks using kernel 3.13.x Not
sure it happened before with older kernels.
I am using a "from scratch" distro. It's using systemd and glibc-2.19,
with relatively recent Xorg and Mesa development.
I have a Radeon 4870. I don't think it's the video card.
Tentatively what happens is I lose the /dev/dri/card0 and the display
goes black. I get "no usable screens found" in the Xorg.0.log file.
Anyway what seems to be causing the problem is If I leave a music CD in
the CD drive, upon booting, timing issues or something cause the
dri/card0 device to go away. There are a lot of messages in the kernel
log, where it's trying to find out about the music CD.
X seems to come up fine with no music CD in the drive.
Fred
