Re: External CRT works on 1024x768 but LCD not. Please Help!!!

2005-02-19 Thread Nqnsome
Hi,
Thanks for your attention. Regarding the BIOS, I am using the latest 
version available.

Sorry to ask that but, if the BIOS is broken, why, under WindowsXp, the 
LCD works in 1024x768?  Why, with X11, the CRT works in 1024x768? Should 
not the broken BIOS prevent the LCD from working under WindowsXP and the 
CRT under X11? I am not sure if I understood correctly the role of the 
BIOS in the proccess.

Also, can´t I override this ModeAttribute? Can´t I set it to 0x9b? Would 
this fix the problem?

Thanks again.
Regards,
Sergio

Actually,
From the look of your log file, the 1024x768 mode isn't supported at all
on your LCD. And although your LCD is reported at 1024x768 it looks
like your BIOS is broken.
ModeAttributes should show 0x9b, whereas it's showing 0x9a.
That first bit is dictating whether XFree86 allows the mode or not,
as it's VBE's method of saying if the mode is supported in the current
configuration.
Have you double checked for an updated BIOS ?
Alan.

Hi Christian,
Thanks for answering.

I still suppose that your BIOS only recognizes the LCD as a 800x600 one,
while the CRT is recognized correctly as being able to display 1024x768.
The Windows XP driver doesn't care about the BIOS but bypasses it. X on
the other hand needs the BIOS to set the resolution because the
information on how to do that without the BIOS is not publicly available.
CU Christian
 

Sorry, but what do you mean with how to do that? What kind of 
information is (not!) in the BIOS that tells X how to change the 
resolution? A function? A memory address? Something else?

I am asking this because, if I have more information about what is 
possibly broken/missing in the BIOS, I can try to contact the 
manufacturer and ask for a fix. Without specific information it is 
difficult to get a useful answer from the manufacturer (COMPAL).

Thanks again.

Hi,
Thanks again.

Alex is correct. Let focus on the primary display controller on  PCI:0:2:0 with 
Display Pipe A and Display Pipe B.
In your case you can only have PipeA=CRT and PipeB=LCD (LFP).
That is why you have the following information
(II) I810(0): Display Info: CRT: attached: TRUE, present: TRUE, size: (800,600)
(II) I810(0): Display Info: LFP (local flat panel): attached: TRUE, present: 
TRUE, size: (1024,768)
The problem is why XFree is saying there is no active display on Pipe B
(II) I810(0): No active displays on Pipe B
   

you can use the monitorlayout option to force on the pipes.  see the
i810 man page.
Alex
 

Now I understand the Pipes, but is still a mistery for me why lspci 
sees the 0:2:1, if it is a Windows placeholder (propably because I do 
not understand what a placeholder is...).

Regarding the No active displays on Pipe B, this probably happens 
because, before starting X, I disable the LCD with the keyboard sequence 
FN+F5. If I do not do this, the screen becomes unreadble (I guess 
because the CRT works in 1024x768 and the LCD do not).

Thanks a lot for the explanations, but I would like to return to the 
question why the CRT works under 1024x768 and the LCD not. Can this be 
related to the VESA VBE DCC that does not work on the LCD?

Thanks again.

Hi,
Thanks for answering.
1)Booting only on the LCD does not work. The XFree output is here:
http://paginas.terra.com.br/educacao/nqnsome/xfree_output_lcd_only.txt
Note that X11 does not find anymore the Built-in mode 1024x768, that
it finds when the CRT is attached and I turn off the LCD before starting
X11. Why turning the LCD on prevents X11 from finding the Built-in
mode 1024x768? Isn´t the mode Built-in?
2)If I boot with both devices attached to the notebook and turned on,
1024x768 does not work in any of them. The output is here:
http://paginas.terra.com.br/educacao/nqnsome/xfree_output_both.txt
3)If I boot with both devices attached to notebook, but with the LCD
off, X11 finds the Built-in mode 1024x768 and the CRT starts in
1024x768. If I try to turn the LCD on, the screen gets messed up, and I
have to restart X in order to see something. When I restart, both the
CRT and LCD turn to 800x600.
I was told months ago that the Built-in modes are read from the VBIOS,
but this does not seem to be the whole true, since the attached display
device interferes in the detection.
BTW, the LCD works in 1024x768 in WinXP.

External CRT works on 1024x768 but LCD not. Please Help!!!

2005-02-17 Thread Nqnsome
Hi,
Can someone help me, please!?
I have a Compal CY27 laptop. The graphics chipset is (as reported by lspci):
:00:02.0 VGA compatible controller: Intel Corp. 82852/855GM
Integrated Graphics Device (rev 02)
:00:02.1 Display controller: Intel Corp. 82852/855GM Integrated
Graphics Device (rev 02)
I read all material on the net about the memory/vbios problems with this
chipset. I do not think I have this problem because I can change the
memory allocated to the graphics card in the BIOS setup program, and the
XFree output reflects these changes.
I have tried all kinds of patchs, all the latest XFree versions
available (including 4.4.0), several distros (FC1, FC2, Mandrake 10 and
now, Debian unstable), the IBM driver, asked the dealer and manufacturer
for a BIOS update, but my LCD never reaches 1024x768 (only 800x600 and
640x480). Actually, a few months ago, I gave out trying to make the LCD
work under 1024x768, after all this dozens of failed trials.
I am getting back to this because I just find out that, if I connect a
external CRT monitor (actually a Samsung SyncMaster 700p) to the CRT out
of my laptop, 1024x768 works on it! I am completely puzzled. If XFree
can make the external monitor works on 1024x768, why it can not do the
same with the LCD?
I was told that my graphics chipset has a vbios problem that prevents
Xfree from recognizing its ability to work under 1024x768, but, if this
is true, why that external CRT works under 1024x768?
I must note that under WinXP the LCD works on 1024x768 and that the XiG
X server can also do the same.
Now that it is clear that Xfree can produce 1024x768 with my chipset and
my LCD supports 1024x768, how can I force Xfree to try 1024x768 on the LCD?
My XF86Config-4 can be found here:
http://paginas.terra.com.br/educacao/nqnsome/xf86config.txt
The XFree output can be found here:
http://paginas.terra.com.br/educacao/nqnsome/xfree_output.txt
I am really sorry for my bad English.
Thanks a lot for your assistance.

Sergio

Driver i810 ignores modes created by 855resolution

2004-08-26 Thread Nqnsome
Hi,
Please, help me.
I have a Compal CY27 laptop with the 82852/855GM Integrated Graphics
Device (rev 02) (lspci output).
Even though the BIOS allow me to change the memory allocated to video
(32M right now), Xfree only see two built in modes:
(**) I810(0): *Built-in mode 800x600
(**) I810(0): *Built-in mode 640x480
From previous posts, I concluded that my VBIOS only lists these two 
modes (even though 855resolution -l shows other modes, including the 
desired 1024x640).

I tried to replace the 800x600 mode by 1024x768 using Poirer's
855resolution , but it does not work (Yes, I included a 1024x768
modeline in the X config file). I loose the (replaced) 800x600 mode, and
can not get (the new) 1024x768 mode, ending only with (old) 640x480
mode. After patching, XFree only finds one Built-in mode, 640x480.
How does XFree (i810?) detects the Built-in modes?
What does mean the * in message *Built-in?
Why XFree only finds two Built-in modes before patching (while
WindowsXP and a commercial X server, Xi Graphics, both can reach 1024x768)?
Why it only finds the old 640x480 mode after patching? What happens to
the new (patched) 1024x768 mode?
Thanks.

Sergio

Hi Alain,
Thanks. I am sorry, but, as the previous versions, this also does not 
work in my Compal CY27. 

The first version (0.1) does not list the modes  properly.
The second version (0.2) lists the modes properly, replaces the mode 
(800x600 by 1024x768, in my case), but X is not able to find the new 
mode nor the old one.

The third version (0.3) lists the modes properly, but nothing changes in 
the modes list after I try to replace any of the listed modes.

It seems my vbios is as weird as possible... ;-(
Please, let me know if there is any information about my system that 
could be useful to find out what the problem is.

Thanks again,

Hi,

Still the 855GM problem... :-(

Reading the modes listed in the X log file, I realized that the
available modes (800x600 and 640x480, in my case), have the
"ModeAttributes" parameter value set to 0x9b, while the unavailable
modes have this parameter set to 0x9a. When I use 855resolution to
replace the 800x600 mode (043) by the 1024x768 mode, this parameter
changes from 0x9b to 0x9a (indicating, IMHO, that the new 043 mode is
not available anymore).

I guess this is related somehow to my problem. Is it possible to modify
855resolution to set this parameter to 0x9a? 

Could anyone that has used 855resolution check in their X logs what
happens with this parameter, when the 1024x768 mode is replaced by the
1400x1050? 

Thanks,

Srgio

855resolution (v0r1 and v0r2) and 1280patch ...

2004-06-10 Thread Nqnsome




Hy guys,

First, Alain, Andrew, Christian and others, thanks for the
great job!

I still could not make nor 855resolution (both versions) neither
1280patch work on my 855GM.

In my machine, there are only two modes available: 800x600 and 640x480.
I would like to have 1024x768 (I think my LCD can not on higher
resolutions).

Before patching the vbios XFree lists all the modes "855resolution -l"
(v0r2, since v0r1 shows crazy values, as the ones on L.Jensen message
http://www.mail-archive.com/devel%40xfree86.org/msg06124.html) finds,
but some of then have a "*" at left of the mode name (actually, 800x600
and 640x480) and others not:

*Mode: 41 (640x480)
 ModeAttributes: 0x9b
 WinAAttributes: 0x7
 WinBAttributes: 0x0
   ...
*Mode: 43 (800x600)
 ModeAttributes: 0x9b
 WinAAttributes: 0x7
 WinBAttributes: 0x0
   ...
Mode: 45 (1024x768)
 ModeAttributes: 0x9a
 WinAAttributes: 0x7
 WinBAttributes: 0x0
   ...

Studying the X log I realized that the modes with the "*" are the same
X finds as the "Built-in":

(**) I810(0): Built-in mode "800x600"
(**) I810(0): Built-in mode "640x480"

and also the same that have the parameter "ModeAttributes" set to 0x9b.

After I use 855resolution or 1280patch to replace the mode 043
(800x600) by the mode 1024x768, I notice that the * does not appear
anymore in the new 043 mode, and that "ModeAttributes" is not anymore
0x9b (but 0x9a).

Checking another L. Jensen's message:

http://www.mail-archive.com/devel%40xfree86.org/msg06134.html

where he resports success with 855resolution and posts the X log file,
I see that the new 1400x1050 modes he created with 855resolution do
have the * and also have "ModeAttributes" set to 0x9b.

Is this parameter ModeAttributes set by the i810 driver of X based on
some other information, or X only reads it from the vbios?

How can I use 855resolution or 1280patch to set "ModeAttributes" to
0x9b?

Thanks a lot for your patience.

When I run the "855resolution -l" (v0.2), I get:

 Chipset: 855GM
 VBIOS type: 1
 VBIOS Version: 2880
 (the same modes list of Xorg.0.log)

Using v0.1, "855resolution -l" gives:

 Chipset: 855GM
 BIOS Configuration area offset: 0x0c20 bytes
 BIOS Version: 80Mo
 (strange modes list)

Since 1024x768 does not work on my laptop, I try to replace mode
800x600x16bits (mode 43, as reported both by 855resoluviov0.2 and
Xorg.0.log) by mode 1024x768 (16bits?):

 init 3
 855resolution 43 1024 768
 init 5

855resolution says the mode has been replaced, but Xorg does not find
neither the new 1024x768 nor the replaced 800x600, and starts in
640x480 ;-(. I tryed inserting a modline for 1024x768, but that did
not work. I tryed removing all references to any mode other than
1024x768 in xorg.conf, but that did not work either.

Suggestions are welcome.

Thanks a lot,

Srgio

BTW: WindowsXP runs with 1024x768 in the same machine.

I have a Acer TM 661 and someone already posted that it worked on his
machine.

  
  
I'm using an ACER TM661 as well and I got the same message ("Unknown VBIOS
structure").
After changing line 34 to

*bios_type = 0;

the patch works with my laptop.
I hope this helps.

(As you can see, I tryed very generous ranges for HorizSync and VertRefresh. Should they be more generous?)

 Your X log file might be helpful, I think.
 I know that some users of 855patch had problems with the refresh rate
 configuration. Setting the HorizSync and VertRefresh to very generous
 values solved these problems.

Hi,

First of all, thanks to everybody for trying to make things work.

Now, to the problem. I have this brazilian notebook, Novadata N8800,
actually a Compal CY27 (?), or similar. Using lspci, I get for the
graphics card:

00:02.0 VGA compatible controller: Intel Corp. 82852/855GM Integrated
Graphics Device (rev 02)
00:02.1 Display controller: Intel Corp. 82852/855GM Integrated Graphics
Device (rev 02)

Right now, under Linux, X (Free86 or Org) only works in 800x600 or
640x480. It can not make 1024x768.

I tried both versions of the 855resolution utility on my notebook. None
worked. Previously, I have tried XFree4.4, and XFree 4.3.X with and
without the 855patch from Christian Zietz. None worked either.

WinXP runs under 1024x768, and the X server from XiG also runs under
1024x768. WinXP tells that the VBIOS version is "2880".

When I do "855resolution -l" with version 0.1, I get:
Chipset: 855GM
BIOS Configuration area offset: 0x0c20 bytes
BIOS Version: 80Mo

Mode 5a : 3856x1816, 32 bits/pixel
Mode 5c : 3856x2320, 32 bits/pixel

And, when I use version 0.2, the output is:
