US15W card Driver install problem

[tinypoodle]

It couldn't harm to add to your xorg.conf the following:

Code: [Select]

Section "ServerFlags"
        Option         "DontZap" "false"
EndSectionso the option to kill X with Ctrl+Alt+BkSp would be present.

Also you could try to add the bootcode 'multivt', to have a remote chance to still being able to switch to a free VT.

I'm starting to desesperate

I do test with new tce backup directory!
iegd-emgd + xorg7.5 + graphics ...
emgd_drv* copied in /usr/local/lib/X11/modules/drivers/
emgd_dri.so copied in /usr/local/lib/X11/modules/dri/
lib* copied if /usr/local/lib/
multvt and ServerFlags updated.
==> i have always locked black screen (no multivt or Ctrl+Alt+Backspace possible action).

In that configuration, i replace in xorg.conf "vesa" by "emgd" in section Device -> Driver
with /usr/local/lib/X11/modules/drivers/emgd_drv.so, i've got "cannot open shared object libpvr2d.so" error.
is it helping ?

I will now try gutmensch sshd server command ...

Thanks
Daniel.

It looks like there is loading driver problem!
But i'm not a specialist


I've got 1.7.3 X driver, used with X 1.7.7 ...

Is it possible to have X 1.9 ? (i've got X 1.9 drivers).
would it be better ?

Thanks,
Daniel.

[Daniel]

when i replace in xorg.conf "vesa" by "emgd" in section Device -> Driver
with /usr/local/lib/X11/modules/drivers/emgd_drv.so, i've got "cannot open shared object libpvr2d.so" error.

I put it on /usr/lib (with others libs) and i've got same results : completely blocked (no keyboard led on-off when num led key pressed, no debug console, no X kill ... ) ...

My conclusion : driver incompatibility. Comming from Intel drivers ?
I will have a new look to the intel driver generation tool. But it was carrefully done!

I will do others tests : in this, i have emgd configuration (replacing vesa).

Here is new tst results : http://dl.free.fr/oIc5EzwHc

the lasts lines of Xorg.0.log with Intel configured xorg.conf

Code: [Select]

After that, le machine is blocked!

What is the next not written operation ?  
[Edit] i see :

Code: [Select]

drmOpenByBusid: (founded on other Xorg.0.log).
But ...what is the stop loading problem


Thanks
Daniel.

[Daniel]

A simple question :
Where drivers files have to be copied ?


I have an installer ... but not for TCL.
And some files have to be copied to specifics places.

Perhaps X loading is stopped due to missing lib ?

I accept any help!
thanks
Daniel.

[Daniel]

As i said before, i've got last Intel driver generator!

I know (with an hardware man) what i have to do to set corresponding material parameters.

But is there any specific software - kernel - mod ... etc ... parameters to set to be compliant with TCL ?
Or to do a generic emgd configuration driver?

Thanks
Daniel.

[tinypoodle]

I accept any help!

Or so you say... but I never noted you responding to Reply #3  

[tinypoodle]

I've got the Xorg.0.log 

I've just mount /var/log/ on a device!!!


Here it is:

That would imply that you should also be able to catch /var/log/messages (when having syslogd running) which might be of more interest, as at least I could not see anything from  Xorg.0.log which would justify a lockup. 

[gutmensch]

you can try other things:

1. disable dri and dri2 altogether in xorg.conf (see if your emgd_drv works at all, might be a problem of the emgd.ko kernel module)
2. the emgd kernel module is included in your intel emgd packages in a file called emgd_drm.tgz (or something like that), you should of course compile it for the driver you're using (I didn't have the intel xorg 1.7.3 "sources", just found some for 1.6.4 and 1.5.3). I can update the iegd-emgd extension to include the module from your special version, but I would need a link to them first...
3. as already stated by tinypoodle, start your tinycore with the boot codes "syslog debug" to enable verbose logging to /var/log/messages

[Daniel]

If all you need is 800x600x24 then it might be possible that Xfbdev could work directly - without any need of 915resolution and/or uvesafb, under the condition that you can get that mode at boot time.

I miss  (having a better look and) a response of your message sorry!

I have vga=789 on kernel command line : 800x600x24 ok!
I don't use 915resolution.
I 've never hear about uvesafb before ...

About Xfbdev :
I'am not using Xvesa because i need to use openJdk (HeadFull) and I want to replace ubuntu 8.04 and 10.04 by TCL!

But, if Xfbdev makes my application running (with no problem for OpenJDK...) as fast as the actual ubuntu (i've got actually 2 application : one under ubuntu 8.04, and an other unde ubuntu 10.04), why not!

if my application can run better with Xfbdev than under X, it will be used!

I will make the test and tell results!

Thanks,
Daniel.

[Daniel]

tinypoodle, i've test with Xfbdev.
It is running!!
With performances!

BUT ... i need TouchScreen!
And actually, i don't know if i can install eGalax Driver! blocking problem !

It was a compatibity problem with Xvesa and a major reason of using X!

And i've loosed my french keyboard configuration (minor problem)

Thanks,
Daniel.

Results 1: (with 3)
Disabling dri and dri2 : i've comment load "dri" in section "Module" : is it ok ?

Here are results : http://dl.free.fr/vZDHIXqkS
X not started

Point 2 : is there any driver sources in the link http://dl.free.fr/getfile.pl?file=/kpUZo5Sa
last intel driver files generated ... in the \IEMGD_HEAD_Linux\DebianSqueeze\ directory ?
If not, i will ask sources to Intel!

Daniel.

[tinypoodle]

Not sure where you see a relation between OpenJDK and X server, I have used OpenJDK more recently and sun's java back when it was proprietary over many years with plenty of different versions of Xvesa without the slightest issue.

Xfbdev and Xvesa are X server implementations as much as X.org (and various others).
