--- Comment #3 from Guido Trentalancia <[email protected]> 2011-07-26 07:49:24 PDT --- Lee, most of the packages shipped by Johannes Obermayr are just git versions. If you look at the first part of https://bugs.freedesktop.org/show_bug.cgi?id=39498#c22 (Comment 22 of the severe issue I was experiencing and that I have now sorted out), you would realize that in particular: - xorg driver xf86-video-nouveau shipped by openSUSE as from jobermayr is exactly or basically the same source code as upstream git; - libdrm is exactly or basically the same source code as upstream libdrm git; - the drm kernel modules (20110721.2009-2.3) use the build option CONFIG_DRM_NOUVEAU_KMS=y, which as far as I remember was set to 'n' in the Makefile from the Nouveau DRM wiki (although I did also try enabling that once on the git source without achieving anything): in any case I did not touch the kernel module, still using the already mentioned one from freedesktop snapshot; In my particular case, the difference was probably made by using the Mesa build options from Johannes Obermayr: jobermayr: --enable-dri --enable-glx --enable-osmesa --with-dri-drivers=i810,i915,i965,nouveau,swrast --enable-shared-dricore --enable-gles1 --enable-gles2 --enable-openvg --enable-shared-glapi --with-gallium-drivers=i915,i965,nouveau,svga,swrast --enable-xcb --enable-xorg --enable-xa --enable-gallium-egl --with-egl-platforms=x11,drm --enable-debug --with-x --enable-gallium-llvm --enable-gbm --enable-gallium-gbm --enable-gallium-g3dvl --enable-xvmc --enable-vdpau --enable-texture-float --with-egl-displays=x11,drm instead of: --enable-selinux -with-dri-drivers=nouveau,i915,swrast --with-gallium-drivers=nouveau,i915,swrast,svga But I need to check it properly and understand which one of those several options did the trick. Let's get to your nomodeset issue. My understanding as someone whom is not an expert at all, is that starting the framebuffer console during initial boot-up before X starts, creates problems. All I can think of is the following mandatory drm kernel parameters: CONFIG_VT_HW_CONSOLE_BINDING=y CONFIG_FRAMEBUFFER_CONSOLE (Nouveau wiki reccomends setting it to 'y', but is also says that modeset=0 is equivalent to deactivating that option) Did you go through the following: http://nouveau.freedesktop.org/wiki/KernelModeSetting ? -- Configure bugmail: https://bugs.freedesktop.org/userprefs.cgi?tab=email ------- You are receiving this mail because: ------- You are the assignee for the bug. _______________________________________________ Nouveau mailing list [email protected] http://lists.freedesktop.org/mailman/listinfo/nouveau
