Re: [CentOS] Intel Xorg driver for Intel HD graphics

2016-01-27 Thread Denniston, Todd A CIV NAVSURFWARCENDIV Crane
I have an older intel card (845G) that works _correctly_ only with the newer 
kernels (3.17+) with everything else being CentOS 6 stock.
The elrepo kernel-ml made this much easier to support.

http://elrepo.org/tiki/kernel-lt
I don't know if you need all the other new packages you built and installed, 
but at least you will not have to be compiling the kernel for yourself if you 
use the elrepo packages. 
Note: although I am using the el6 packages, they have el7 packages.

Even when this disclaimer is not here:
I am not a contracting officer. I do not have authority to make or modify the 
terms of any contract.

Adding this to the boot - does not make it work on straight 7.2

I saw information about this - but it is mentioned on the page I
included that this was no longer needed with the files listed in the
link.


The kernel 4.4 installs and runs fine on the NUC5C. Its the
xorg-server package that is is my issue. Everything else ran fine.


The problem I'm trying to solve is getting the NUC 5C to run X on 7.2.

I "realize" that is all newer hardware - but if its possible it's beneficial.


I just need to figure out how to compile the X server it was giving an error.


Thanks,


Jerry

What happen if you append i915.preliminary_hw_support=1 to the kernel
argument?

You haven't explained the problem you are trying to solve. I assume your
hardware is not supported?

Which version of which package does not support your hardware? At what
version was support added?

No point updating that, it's already at that version in the distro:

$ rpm -q xorg-x11-drv-intel
xorg-x11-drv-intel-2.99.917-8.20150615.el7.x86_64

All intel embedded graphics is "HD", but there have been a lot of 
generations of it..


Your NUC 5C has the Braswell based Celeron N3050, which apparently has 
the 8th generation of this, also known as HD400, this is way new stuff, 
I have no idea whether or not Linux has caught up with it yet, or if 
they have, whether its available for CentOS 7...   Some googling talks 
about Linux kernels 4.1+ supporting it, thats much newer than EL7.
