Tiny Core 14.0 Alpha 1 Testing

<< < (9/22) > >>

nick65go:
To avoid any doubts about mixing firmware + drivers etc, in a console I did:
--- Code: ---ls /tmp/tcloop/ | grep xf86-video
xf86-video-ati/
xf86-video-fbdev/
xf86-video-vesa/

--- End code ---
and

--- Code: ---lsmod | grep amd
--- End code ---
output nothing, only kernel-radeon drv is loaded
and

--- Code: ---cat onboot.lst
kmaps.tcz
regdb.tcz
HP-radeon.tcz
graphics-6.1.2-tinycore64.tcz
Xorg-7.7-3d.tcz
flwm.tcz
aterm.tcz
wbar.tcz
wifi.tcz
acpid.tcz
--- End code ---
So, at least for RADEON case: I suspect /usr/local/lib/dri/radeonsi_dri.so has a linking problem.

Juanito:
If you don't load xf86-video-amdgpu or xf86-video-ati, but do load graphics-KERNEL, does the modesetting driver work?

curaga:
There is no problem with ati/radeon vs amdgpu. Your card is supported by ati/radeon, and the optional/experimental amdgpu support for it is correctly disabled. X failed to start because llvm called abort(), meaning you are hitting a llvm or mesa bug. You can disable 3d in your xorg.conf or try older versions.

Right I hit a bug in LLVM  or mesa.
So for clarity, lets forget ALL future discussion about amdgpu, and concentrate only on radeon.

Xorg-3D without graphics-KERNEL works OK, using xorg-FBDEV (so is not accelerated).

1. After exit xorg and loading (in console) the graphics-KERNEL, then the console/prompter is frozen and I must do cold reset the laptop.

2.Fresh boot.After exit xorg and loading (in console) FIRST the firmware-radeon.tcz and THEN the graphics-KERNEL, now I stay console/prompter. When I start Xorg now, it shows briefly (1 second) the Xorg-window + mouse cursor, then it quickly quits back in console.
The less /var/log/Xorg.0.log shows that Xorg successfully loaded modeset-drv +llinput etc and then Xorg spits (EE) about libLLVM-13.so + radeonsi_dri.so.

3. Fresh boot.After exit xorg and loading (in console), first firmare-radeon, then Xf86-video-ati then graphics-kernel. And now I have the same briefly Xorg shown and then it quickly quits back in console. The less /var/log/Xorg.0.log shows that Xorg successfully loaded RADEON-drv +llinput etc, and then it spits (EE) about libLLVM-13.so + radeonsi_dri.so, right afler "RADEON (0): Modeline "1600x900" etc.

nick65go:
For the case loading firmware-radeon + xf86-video-ati + graphics-kernel, all there tcz loaded from console before starting xorg, here is attached the full /var/log/Xorg.0.log. You can see the (EE) from libLLVM-13.so + radeonsi_dri.so.
FYI: I know is in alpha1 stage so work in progress. but to use Xorg-3D without acceleration is a NOT-go for anyone with a laptop [so I think].
