Re: Getting Dual Independent Heads to work on Debian(sid) on iBook
Ben, Thanks for the information. I used fbset -x and updated XF86Config-4 accordingly. All of the test results from my original post were without using the kernel fbdev driver. I just now went ahead and added Option UseFBDev to the lcd-related device section in XF86Config-4 and set BusID to 0:16:0 in both device sections and now the lcd flickering is gone but both screens are yellow and I am still in clone mode.If I just comment out the Option UseFBDev then restart the X server then the lcd flickering returns (and both screens are still yellowish etc.). Given this result I tried comparing the sections of code in the kernel fbdev driver and the XF86 radeon driver that sets up the PLL and there was just a few minor diff's in the default min/max values. I went ahead and changed these to match and recompiled/installed XFree86 4.3 etc. but it didn't make any difference...the flickering still occured. Maybe I am looking at the wrong parts of codehmmm I guess the other weird thing is the color issue (yellowing). It also seems to be related to the BusID setting. If I use 0:16:0 in the device sections then its yellow. If I use 0:10:0 in just the external crt device section (an incorrect value per your earlier comments) then the colors are all ok on both screens etc... In any case I appreiciate your comments. I guess I really want to get down to enabling the dual-head mode first and then I can worry about any flickering and color issues secondarily. On that note I looked at my XF86 log file and noticed the following error: (EE) RADEON (0): FBIOPAN_DISPLAY: Invalid argument This end up being in the fb_ioctl function in the kernel fbmem.c module.I am not sure whats going on in this particular section so maybe you can comment. thanks again, -dean andreakis On Fri, 2003-06-13 at 09:06, Benjamin Herrenschmidt wrote: hing is ok. 2. On the iBook if I set both BusID's in both device sections to 0:10:0 then X won't startup even though this is the ID reported by lspci for the ATI chip. If I just set the BusID in the device section associated with the external CRT to 0:10:0 then X will start and the colors are ok but there are scrolling lines in the lcd panel. Also, if I run glxinfo then it reports information on just one screen even though I have defined two of them. I think lspci has hexadecimal output while XF86Config expects decimal, try 0:16:0 3. If both are set to BusID 0:16:0 (or just the device section associated with the external CRT) then X starts but both screens are yellowish and there are scrolling lines in the lcd panel. Also, if I run glxinfo then it reports information on two screens (as I expect). First get the native modeline of your panel with fbset -x before you launch X and make sure X uses that for the panel. Also, there is a problem with the LCD panel on some iBooks, possibly yours. On these, for an unknown reason, the PLL values we calcule provide a flickering display. I have hard coded values in radeonfb but of course that's not a solution for you. Keeping the firmware set values would work too if XFree driver can be instructed to do that. I'm not too sure how to solve that last problem properly. The interesting fact is that if I use the same PLL values as MacOS uses, I also have flickering display. So there is something else that is interfering with the PLL in some way. It seems though that MacOS reconfigure the MPLL and SPLL (to obtain the same final clocks but using a different pair of dividers), there might be something related to the flickering in there... Only ATI can tell. From previous mailing list responses around this issue and my test results so far I have thought that further development work is required on the radeon XFree86 4.3.0 drivers in order to properly enable this dual-headed mode on the iBook and relieve some of the other odd issues defined above. Any help in pointing me in the right direction as far as changes required etc. with the driver(s) would be appreciated. -dean andreakis -- Benjamin Herrenschmidt [EMAIL PROTECTED] ___ Devel mailing list [EMAIL PROTECTED] http://XFree86.Org/mailman/listinfo/devel

Re: Getting Dual Independent Heads to work on Debian(sid) on iBook
It's not the DRI per se... it's the radeon memory manager. it attempts to statically allocate offscreen memory for use by the DRI, pixmaps, etc. It has no effect on modes, so you can safely ignore it.

The problem you are seeing is quite rare and I don't recall when somebody reported here that a monitor died when switching modes. What surprises me most however that this happens although your monitor is rather new: it even has DDC support. Usually these monitors support multi sync and are capable of detecting if the sync frequencies are out of range. All modes listed in the log which are available thru mode switching are around 60Hz and should not cause problems on almost any monitor. I suppose if you set any of these modes as the startup mode you don't see any problems. So the problem is most likely the mode change itself. It is theoretically possible that during mode transition the sync frequencies are out of range for a short while. Unfortunately I have no idea how to debug this. You could try a newer version of the XFree86 as 4.1 is rather old however I don't think that the mode setting part of the code has changed since then. Do you remember if it happened during any mode transition or only during a switch between two specific modes (ie. when you switch from 1024x768 to 640x480)?

Hi All, I've just installed Redhat 9.0 on my Compaq Evo 610c laptop. The Xserver wotk fine with the laptop panel and gives me a nice 1400x1050 resolution. However when I dock the laptop and try to drive an external CRT monitor I get problems. The attached XF86Config file will give me 1400x1050 resolution on my CRT but I get very low refresh rates i.e. 60 Hz. Secondly the very top of the screen has annoying flickering where its not redrawing the screen properly. Lastly when driving the CRT the LCD panel is still on. The PanelOff option is turned on but doesn't do anything. If I turn the option CloneMode to anything except 1 the LCD turns off but the CRT gets a virtual desktop. I have to scroll around a 640x480 desktop. Any help would be appreciated. Regards Daryl -- _ Daryl Parker Researcher, Applied Research Labs.

Moreover you can also change the modelines to have better matching display. Bye Manu ___ XFree86 mailing list [EMAIL PROTECTED] http://XFree86.Org/mailman/listinfo/xfree86

X just uses the same area which was used by the boot sequence. For the savage driver there is a TV option (or something approaching) and you can use it to specify NTSC or PAL output (to see if your driver has this option have a look at its man page). Moreover you can also change the modelines to have better matching display. The driver I'm using is i810. As far as I understand this is the one correct one. http://www.xfree.org/4.3.0/i810.4.html Neither of those options seem to be there. All supported options would be listed there right?

Re: [XFree86] Installing sis driver on MSI Hermes 650
God, what I am tired of saying this: I need to see your log.

Hello, the point is that XFree86 3.3.6 is still used in at least one *current* Linux distribution, namely the current stable release of Debian GNU/Linux. This release provides XFree86 4.1. The problem is that 4.1 doesn't support older video hardware. To get this older hardware working, the current stable Debian release provides some 3.3.6 servers.

If you haven't tweaked your kernel yet, it'll probably be the GENERIC kernel (you can see it in the initial boot messages, or in dmesg). Again, in FreeBSD (-STABLE, not so in -CURRENT), there is another file called LINT that lists all of the options and flags for kernel configuration. However, I just looked at the openbsd site, and it looks like openbsd is structured a bit differently. Here's the kernel config info: http://openbsd.org/faq/faq5.html#Why It may be that OpenBSD doesn't enable AGP support by default -- FreeBSD doesn't, but doesn't choke like you're describing either.

[XFree86] autodetect dual head ?
I configured my dual head setup on my laptop using an SiS 650 chipset. However, since the VGA is the primary, it seems that I either have to : - have the VGA monitor on at boot time - set ForceCRT1 The first case is obviously not very practical for a laptop since the only monitor I am sure to have on is the LCD. The second case is not very good either : it actually starts the second screen in any case and seem to use a wealth of computer resources even the monitor is not present. Furthermore, running Gnome on both screen in that configuration brings the panel of the VGA screen on top of the LCD one (I don't know why, though !!???). Would there be a way to autodetect if CRT1 is present, and THEN, turn on dual head ? Or make Xfree not scream if CRT1 is not present and just disable its screen instead of exiting with an error ?

[XFree86] DPMS suspend not working with tdfx Voodoo3-2000
I recently upgraded my computer (from FreeBSD 3.1 to 5.1), and now my monitor will not go into suspend mode; it stays in standby. I have this in my .xsession: xset s 300 s blank dpms 1200 3600 So after 20 minutes, the monitor should go into standby mode, then after an hour into suspend mode; this was working previously. Now however, after my upgrade, it will go standby but never suspend. Even when I do xset dpms force suspend, it goes into standby and stays there. An xset q in this state says the monitor is in Suspend state, even though it isn't. Video board is a tdfx voodoo3-2000, monitor is a NEC Multisync E950. Has anybody seen this before? Is there a fix?

[XFree86] Prob. with XServer
Hi !! I have a intel 845 glva motherboard running RedHat linux 8. Due to poor graphical resolution, I recently downloaded te entire 4.3 version of Xwindows (abt 70 mb) and installed it. Unfortunately, after installation (it said the installation completed successfully), when i rebooted, i did get a graphical screen with mouse, as if its just trying to bring the logon screen, but the logon screen never comes and the system remains like that. when i kill XWindows and login from console and then use 'startx', it directly goes to gui under the root's account without teh graphical logon screen. Then, when i click teh logout menu, the logout confirmatuon dialog never comes. Can anyone please tell me, whats the problem with the XWindows? Also, previously, under RedHat 7, i cld use Xconfigurator and test my settings. Under the new Xwindows system, i no longer find the "XConfigurator" command, neither it is listed in "setup". How can i get the text based graphical configuration tool? Please help me with this, since i am really stuck ... Anirban. has notified the sender that this message has been received.

[XFree86] Re: Re: DPMS under 3.3.6
On Thu, 12 Jun 2003, Wolfgang Jeltsch wrote: why isn't there any information available on the XFree86 website and in the manpages about activating DPMS under XFree86 3.3.6. Option DPMS in the Monitor section doesn't work. Whatever the reason might be, XFree86 3.3.6 is _long_ since obsolete and completely unmaintained. You're strongly advised to use the current XFree86, which is version 4.3.0. Hello, the point is that XFree86 3.3.6 is still used in at least one *current* Linux distribution, namely the current stable release of Debian GNU/Linux. This release provides XFree86 4.1. The problem is that 4.1 doesn't support older video hardware. To get this older hardware working, the current stable Debian release provides some 3.3.6 servers. And my point, is that XFree86.org doesn't support 3.3.6 anymore. Some distributions still _provide_ it, but wether or not they _support_ it, as in fixing bugs, and whatnot, depends on the particular distribution. You may wish to contact Debian directly to find out if they officially bugfix support and tech support XFree86 3.3.6. I have a S3-based video card (older hardware) and want to use the stable packages of Debian wherever practical. Therefore I use XFree86 3.3.6. S3 Hardware works fine on 4.x using the vesa driver if the s3 or s3virge drivers don't work. -- Mike A. Harris ___ XFree86 mailing list [EMAIL PROTECTED] http://XFree86.Org/mailman/listinfo/xfree86

[XFree86] Out of range frequencies
Hi, I would really appreciate it if someone can help me. I'm using XFree86, version 4.3.0. My graphics card is an S3 Pro Savage DDR My monitor is a Philips 107S I could run the X server with a resolution of 640x480, with 256 colors, but anything higher than that gives me either a blank screen or a out of range frequency from the monitor. I read a page on the web about the S3 Savage, and I think I'm using the latest drivers.
