Hi,
  I tried latest kernel and I see some error logged by the system, Should I
worry?

Perhaps if someone from XFree86 had contacted the X.org security list
to notify the other X vendors that this issue was being coordinated,
it would have been handled properly.  Who exactly does the coordinating

My understanding is that several X.Org member companies have
representatives on the relevant notification channels.  There seems
to be an internal communications problem here.

What relevant notification channels was this sent to?  Obviously there
was some breakdown, since we didn't get notified through those channels.

This happens on 4.3.0 also, and is due to the X server directly 
bit banging the keyboard controller to set the repeat rate.  If 
you look at the code, it first tries to use the new kernel ioctl, 
then a fallback, then finally it does bitbanging if the previous 
methods fail.

The kernel people believe that it should not ever directly access 
the hardware, and that it should only use the ioctl, and if the 
ioctl isn't available in your kernel (perhaps your kernel is very 
very ancient), then X should not set the repeat rate at all.

The question then is:  Why is the ioctl not working?

I am currently investigating this matter myself, and there are a 
few possibilities that could be happening:

1) Compile time problem:  The kernel headers on the machine that 
   X is being compiled on, do not have the KDKBDRATE ioctl 
   present, and so the code to use that ioctl does not get
   compiled in.

or

2) The KDKBDRATE ioctl stuff gets built in, but at runtime the 
   ioctl is failing for some reason or another, thus the ioport 
   bitbanging occurs, and can totally hang the machine according 
   to kernel folk.



If anyone has any other possibilities, feel free to share.  I've 
written a small debugging patch to put into a future build in 
order to peek into what's going on, but haven't gotten it into 
test builds yet.  Not an uber-high priority item however, so 
it'll take a week or two probably for a test build to get out 
there and get some feedback from people seeing this problem.

2004-02-08 Thread Martin MOKREJ
Hi,
  I'm a bit playing around with my comp and finally figured out why on one
host I did not get framebuffer on console running - the VESA kernel module
wasn't compiled into kernel. So now I have framebuffer console, but X don't
start anymore. They used to work with radeon module and dri, but the log
doesn't show anything interresting.

Fatal server error:
AddScreen/ScreenInit failed for driver 0


So I tried vesa module and they do come  up after some flashes of the
screen and there is some suspicious WW message:
VESA(0): Failed to setup write-combining range 
What's that? Could that be a reason why X don't come up with radeon module
at all?

dmesg(1) shows:
Linux agpgart interface v0.100 (c) Dave Jones
radeon: no version for struct_module found: kernel tainted.
radeon: no version magic, tainting kernel.
[drm] Initialized radeon 1.10.0 20020828 on minor 0: ATI Radeon RV280 9200
mtrr: 0xd000,0x800 overlaps existing 0xd000,0x100

Full logs are at:
http://www.natur.cuni.cz/~mmokrejs/lspci.txt.gz
http://www.natur.cuni.cz/~mmokrejs/XFree86.0.log.gz

These errors I get regardless the fact agpgart/radeon kernel modules are
loaded. Could the problem be caused by the 1:0:1 device unrecognized (the
AGP card has 1:0:0 and 1:0:1 address)?

Thanks

Re: Newbie question, difference between offscreen and onscreen image formats?

Subject: Re: Newbie question, difference between offscreen and onscreen
image formats?


 The image formats registered via xf86XVScreenInit are ones that
 are exported to the clients.  The ones registered via
 xf86XVRegisterOffscreenImages are for internal use only.  The
 idea being that they are the hardware's native overlay format or
 formats that can be exposed to other parts of the server such as
 a module which uses V4L.  Reasons why some formats would be
 exposed as client XvImages while they wouldn't be exposed as
 OffscreenImages could be:

   * The XvImage formats aren't implemented via the overlay, but
 with some texture or blit mechanism.

   * The XvImage formats, though using the overlay, aren't the native
 hardware format and require CPU reformating on the copy.

   * There are hardware or software complications related to other
 devices bus mastering data into those overlay formats.

   * Simply an oversight, or somebody just didn't get around to
 adding them, or didn't have a way to adequetly test them.



Thanks for the explaination.

I know chiip and tech 69000/69030 supports both YUV and RGB overlays. So I
guess, all the formats should also be registered as offscreen formats. Any
idea what else needs to be changed? Like which functions get called to
set/start/stop/capture overlays.

Or should I contact one of the chips driver's developer?

Looks like its fixed in DRI CVS with/since your patch.
I have to admit that I only tried with the new libGL.so and old
Xserver/libs, not with old libGL and new Xserver.

OpenGL version string: 1.2 (1.5 Mesa 6.1)

 think it needs the Ultimate Refactor...'rm -rf programs/Xserver/GL'

... and I was told 'rm -rf' means read mail, really fast!

 doing 1.2 (1.4.20040108 Foobar, Inc. Fancypants GL)  should work just
 as well.

I would want to be very sure that there are no apps parsing that
string before making such a change. Granted it's more likely they'll be
looking at the RENDERER string.
