Xorg cant find my screen

(1/3) > >>

Zendrael:
Hello all!

After some time I got Core 64 v16 booting into my laptop, XVesa works but I need Xorg (or wayland) to be running.

I've installed Xorg and intel-firmware and graphics-KERNEL tcz, added them into my onboot.lst (graphics, then firmware, then Xorg) and removed Xvesa from it.

After booting, no graphics show up, it goes to CLI and Xorg says it didn't found any screens...

Any ideas on why is it happenning?

Juanito:
You could try loading Xorg-7.7 and xf86-video-intel.

Which window manager are you using?

Note that wayland is not available in the x86 repo.

Zendrael:
No Luck with that, Juanito...

My current onboot.lst is:


--- Code: ---aterm.tcz
bzip2-lib.tcz
cairo.tcz
expat2.tcz
fltk-1.4.tcz
flwm.tcz
fontconfig.tcz
freetype.tcz
fribidi.tcz
glib2.tcz
graphite.tcz
harfbuzz.tcz
imlib2-bin.tcz
imlib2.tcz
libffi.tcz
libfontenc.tcz
libICE.tcz
libjpeg-turbo.tcz
liblzma.tcz
libpng.tcz
libSM.tcz
libX11.tcz
libXau.tcz
libxcb.tcz
libXcursor.tcz
libXdmcp.tcz
libXext.tcz
libXfixes.tcz
libXfont.tcz
libXft.tcz
libXinerama.tcz
libxkbcommon.tcz
libxml2.tcz
libXmu.tcz
libXrender.tcz
libXt.tcz
pango.tcz
pcre21042.tcz
pcre.tcz
pixman.tcz
wbar.tcz
xf86-video-intel.tcz
Xorg-7.7.tcz
xkeyboard-config.tcz
Xlibs.tcz
Xprogs.tcz

--- End code ---

Pretty much the same as base TinyCore x64 default packages, just changed xvesa and replaced by xf86-video-intel and Xorg-7.7. I kept the flwm window manager.

The system boots, and instead of showing anything, it says failed in waitforX. And if trying to load Xorg (without startx), it says "no screens found".

The weird thing is that it works with default TC tinyX/Xvesa...

Any ideas?

neonix:
Xorg doesn't know what driver to use. You have to configure it manually.


--- Code: ---sudo Xorg -configure
sudo cp /root/xorg.conf.new /usr/local/share/X11/xorg.conf.d/xorg.conf
--- End code ---

Unfortunetly Xorg is not good in automatic detecting GPU.
Maybe someone who read this, can influence Xorg developers that they create database with  <vendor>]:[<device> numbers list of supported GPUs.

Juanito:
The 32bit version of x11 seems to get progressively worse on my intel hd4400 hardware, whereas there are no problems with the 64bit version.

If you look at /var/log/Xorg.0.log, you should see something like this:
--- Code: ---[    84.535] (==) Matched intel as autoconfigured driver 0
[    84.535] (==) Matched modesetting as autoconfigured driver 1
[    84.535] (==) Matched fbdev as autoconfigured driver 2
[    84.535] (==) Matched vesa as autoconfigured driver 3
--- End code ---

..which will let you know what xorg-server is trying to do.

The 32bit modesetting driver does not seem to work with my intel hardware, which is why I suggested using xf86-video-intel (autoconfigured driver 0).

Note also that you only need the following onboot:

Xorg-7.7 xf86-video-intel flwm aterm wbar

or

Xorg-7.7-3d xf86-video-intel flwm aterm wbar
