Hello, I have a strange problem which I never had in the past when using a lenovo laptop with a somewhat identical configuration.
I'm using CURRENT with a lenovo w500 (model 4063-34G). This model has one of these switchable dual graphics. (ATI Mobility Radeon FireGL V5700 + Intel's integrated GMA 4500MHD) <http://www5.pc.ibm.com/de/products.nsf/$wwwPartNumLookup/_NRC34GE?OpenDocume nt> <http://www.pcpro.co.uk/reviews/246624/lenovo-thinkpad-w500.html> (X11 identifies the ati card as a "ati mobility radeon HD 3650) <http://www.wiroth.net/dmesg.ati> <http://www.wiroth.net/Xorg.0.log.ati> For now, I'm using the intel adapter, as the ati adapter is very, very slow when watching a movie. I'm using the following display bios settings: a) Default Primary Video Device: Internal b) Boot Display Device: ThinkPad LCD c) Graphics Device: "Integrated Graphics" d) OS Detection for Switchable Graphics: Disabled Now, let me explain the problem in my simple words. I'm dualbooting between windows xp and openbsd: partition 1 - openbsd current partition 2 - windows xp Partition 2 is fully encrypted with truecrypt (http://www.truecrypt.org). In a non technical terminology when I boot, the following happens: the Truecrypt prompt/"boot loader" appears, I have two choices: a) Enter a passphrase to access the windows bootloader If I choose this option and enter a passphrase the windows xp bootloader appears and I can still choose to boot into windows xp or openbsd (I have followed the guidelines at <http://www.openbsd.org/faq/faq4.html#Multibooting> to add the openbsd partition boot record to the boot.ini of windows xp). Here is the Xorg.0.log: <http://www.wiroth.net/Xorg.0.log> Here is the dmesg: <http://www.wiroth.net/dmesg.working> If I boot via a) into Openbsd, X11 _IS_ working, no problem here! b) Now, if I bypass the authentication and boot directly into openbsd. The openbsd kernel is loaded, but now I'm _NOT_ able to start X11. Here is the NON-working Xorg.0.log: <http://www.wiroth.net/Xorg.0.log.not.working> Here is the dmesg.boot: <http://www.wiroth.net/dmesg.not.working> (I don't think there is a difference between the two DMESG, but I included them in case someone would like to have a look into it) Here is a snip of the error message: (II) Loading /usr/X11R6/lib/modules//libvgahw.so (II) Module vgahw: vendor="X.Org Foundation" compiled for 1.5.3, module version = 0.1.0 ABI class: X.Org Video Driver, version 4.1 (II) intel(0): Creating default Display subsection in Screen section "Builtin Default intel Screen 0" for depth/fbbpp 24/32 (==) intel(0): Depth 24, (--) framebuffer bpp 32 (==) intel(0): RGB weight 888 (==) intel(0): Default visual is TrueColor (II) intel(0): Integrated Graphics Chipset: Intel(R) Mobile IntelB.
