[XFree86] 'nv' support of NVIDIA GeForce 6150 LE
Hi, What is the current status of support for the NVIDIA GeForce 6150 LE? I've manually pulled up the support in the 'nv' driver to XFree86 4.5.0 under NetBSD 4.0_BETA2 on i386. Prior to pulling up the support, it would configure using the vesa driver. My monitor is a 1680x1050 native LCD, which obviously isn't a valid VESA mode. Running with the pulled-up 'nv' support, it fails to get DDC info, and with a manually configured 1680x1050 modeline, looks pretty horrible - bad aliasing effects and quite wavy. I also tried Knoppix 5.1.1 which runs some Xorg version... looks fine with 'nv' running 1280x1024, but monitor gets an 'out of range' forcing it to 1680x1050 with the same modeline as above. I'm now building from CVS tag xf-4_6_99_27 and will give that a go, although I can't see any relevant changes. FYI: my current start log with the pulled up changes can be found here: ftp://stix.id.au/pub/tmp/XFree86-nv.log Cheers, -- Paul Ripke ___ XFree86 mailing list XFree86@XFree86.Org http://XFree86.Org/mailman/listinfo/xfree86

Re: [XFree86] Display glitch using new Linux on old Laptop
Mark Vojkovich wrote: If you were using the neomagic driver and the rendering was wrong while the vga driver rendered correctly, that implies a HW acceleration problem with the neomagic driver. You might try using the neomagic driver with: Option "noaccel" in the Section "Device" of the XF86Config file. If that works but is slow, you can add Option "ShadowFB", which should be faster. Another option would be to omit the "noaccel" and "ShadowFB" options and instead try to turn off the acceleration feature that is broken. It's not clear which feature that is so it would take some experimentation, but for starters, I'd try: Option "XaaNoPixmapCache" Option "XaaNoOffscreenPixmaps" Thanks for your hints. Sadly, my problems seem rather "deep". I switched (down) to VGA driver (guessing that the chip might support it) and set 800x600 24 bit, and still had the same problem. The only setting that gave non-bugged display was VGA, 1024x768, 256 (paletted) colours! This is a little limiting :-) So I suspect my problem is rather deep rooted. I have run Mandrake 9.0, 9.1, 9.2 and 10.1 successfully on this machine; this is the first graphics problem I've had. Any hints (as always...) gratefully accepted.

[XFree86] intel driver not varying gamma?
Is there any way to apply pressure, or get code written, or get information? I have a nice company supplied laptop, but I cannot alter the gamma, which leaves the display less useful than it could be.

Re: [XFree86] IBM t41 laptop and RedHat 7.2
I think 7.2 is too old for a T41. You *may* be able to get a more recent driver from the graphics chip manufacturer (ATI?).

My advice is NOT to use 7.2, but to use something more recent (and supported), like SuSE 9.x.

Hello, I'm hoping someone can help me because I'm about to lose my mind. I just bit the bulet and scrapped Windows completely, and installed a new drive and installed Red Hat 9. I'm slowly forcing myself to use Linux, hopefully for good. But I'm mgetting VERY discouraged with the video. I'm running on a P4-1.7ghz with 256mb of ram. All is working well except my X session keeps either 1) freezing so I have to hit CTRL-ALT-BKSPC to restart the X session, or 2) the X session locks hard so I have to reset the PC. Looking in Google on this, it seems everyone in the world who's posted about this has an ATI card. And you guessed it, so do I. I have the Radeon 9600 Pro. I tried using the ATI driver and was having the same troubles. So now I've uninstalled it and am just using the VESA driver, 1024x768, 256 color as a test. It's STILL locking up every few minutes! When checking with ATI on this, they say to contact xfree86. Here's the tail of my XFree86 log. The main things I see as being a problem are VBESetVBEMode failed and the X message about being rejected from local host. I'm basically a newbie when it comes to this.

I know these modelines work aswell because If say I don't mention the one for 1680x1050 it doesn't do the res.

Re: [XFree86] how does X find modelines?
Ok, time for another little try-out. :) Try adding the display size of your panel to your monitor section, using: DisplaySize width height where width and height need to be defined in milimeters. I tried that out and although it didn't fix the problem it has given me some other interesting ideas on a different note. Thanx :) Also, it might have to do with your resolution not being a standard one. Hence it may not find all requested modes, and hence dives into this piece of the code. You said it worked if you only requested 1600x1200? Does it also work if you request 1600x1200 on top of all the other resolutions? This you are gonna find real interesting. I went searching on the gentoo forums and found loads of people who have been having this similar problem with my laptop. And I found a guy that instead of giving X and undoable res like 1600x1200, he just simply didn't put in any mode and X came up with the same results as me. But what is peculiar is when I tried this for my self i noticed X defaulted to 640x480, which I know I tried and it did not do these results but rather gave me the white screen. So I tried it on my own by specifying the mode 640x480 and it gave me a white screen.

Re: [XFree86] how does X find modelines?
what I'm not exactly clear about is whether X is really using the modeline values on this last line or not, but it seems to me that you didn't give it a chance to realyl use 1600x1200 correctly since you didn't include a modeline inpt for that setting. (And I understand that you probably didn't want to...) The modelines that I got where the ones I got when x printed them out in the log for the mode 1600x1200. I've heard of other people that have had problems with modeline settings causing strange sorts of problems. I'm sure you're sick of all of this, but have you gone through a number of other (slower) refresh rates? You see to begin with this is what I really did. I tried hundreds of different modelins, and refreshes galore. All thanks to linux modile which conveniently had a subsection for 168x1050 wsxga screens. I basically tried all those and any others I found on the net. But none worked. Then One day I just happened to stumble on the 1600x1200 mode and realized it worked and printed out the modelines. So I copied those modelines into myxconfig and walla! 1680x1050! So it did actually do the 1600x1200 but some of the screen on the right wasn't there and I couldn't see the bottom. Hope that helps show where they all came from. Guess I should have explained all this in the beginning.

> The reason I have those lines commented is for testing. So instead of re > writing everything out again I just comment and uncomment the lines I need. Hmm, I didn't get that part from the email you sent with the configuration and log files. The logfile that worked, which lines were uncommented? Modes "1600x1200" # Modes "1680x1050" "1400x1050" "1280x1024" "1280x960" "1024x768" "800x600" 640x480" # Modes "1680x1050" the mode 1600x1200 works fine. The 1680x1050 1400x1050 etc line is for when everything finally works and to test that everything works fine. Thats why I have it commented out to save me writing out al those modes again. the the 1680x1050 line is just for testing purposes. So when yourself or I or anyone comes up with an idea I can just uncomment it and comment the rest.

Re: [XFree86] how does X find modelines?
I dunno If I have really thanked you for the help, but thanx. This has been frustrating me no end to get this working. Now, I noticed the only requested mode you have is 1600x1200 (the other line is commented out). When you tried without 1600x1200, did you uncomment the other line? If not, requested modes would be 0, and the on-chip modes will be tested first. With the 1600x1200 on, the on-chip modes probably will not be tested, since it will most likely find more modes than the 1 requested mode. The reason I have those lines commented is for testing. So instead of re writing everything out again I just comment and uncomment the lines I need. You could also try turning DCC on, to see if the behaviour changes. Unfortunately I have also tried that and the ignore EDID option. But still no luck. I just cannot seem to get X to ignore the onboard modes and what ever else goes with them and use mine. I'm assuming the problem is that the on-board modes maybe use different vsync and hsync values and or modelines. Hence the reason why X is ignoring what I say. _ Get FREE Web space - click to learn more! http://groups.msn.com/people.msnw?pgmarket=en-za ___ XFree86 mailing list [EMAIL PROTECTED] http://XFree86.Org/mailman/listinfo/xfree86
Re: [XFree86] how does X find modelines?
It looks like the TMDS mode checks for available modelines. For 1600x1200 it cannot find any, so it starts using the modelines you provided. In the 2nd try it _does_ find a working mode in its BIOS, so it doesn't look any further at your configuration. From what I gathered about TMDS, it's an automatic setup for XFree86: You might want to give the 1680x1050 setup another try after turning TMDSCoherentMode to off. I'm interested to hear what your results will be. I must say. I to thought it might be that some time ago. But because It worked at the other mode I never gave it another thought.

Thanx for the reply though and the help Warren Paul Hi, OK, so I am probably still misunderstanding you and I no longer have your original post. Also not sure I can help... My problem was that XF86config was choosing to put a bunch of modelines in the config file which worked but looked lousy. For instance, in the case of my laptop which has a 1280x800 native resolution to the screen it was setting things up for 1280x1024 which looked blurry. This page allowed me to correctly set the resolution I wanted which XF86config wasn't able to do for me. If I'm understanding your question above "why does it work when I tell x to do a size it can't do", then I think the answer is that X can do all sizes, in some virtual manner, but whether those sizes look good is another thing. In my case it did 1280x1024 even though my screen doesn't. X did some sort of virtual mapping to make it fit.

The problem really is that X is getting the correct mode of 1680x1050. And everything looks crystal clear without any gliches. The problem is that It will only do this when I give it a size I guess my screen can't handle more than x can't eg 1600x1050. then It works out the correct modelines and everything for me and everything looks great. But when I tell it to do 1680x1050 it goes on the blitz and doesnt want to work. My question then Is what is X doing when it works it out, that I'm not doing when I tell it manually?

[XFree86] Laptop display confusion with thinkpad and external monitor.
Hi, I just converted my Thinkpad T30 from SuSE 9.0 to 9.1. Now, the display will only start up with 1024x768 resolution, although the external monitor is a 1280x1024 LCD panel. It all worked perfectly happily at SuSE 9.0, which uses a different version of XFree86. It seems that the X server is always going to the laptop's built in LCD, which is 1024x768, and using that as the primary device - even though it's connected to the external monitor. I don't know enough about the config file to start editing it without some guidance. Thanks, Paul The XFree86.0.log file follows. This is a pre-release version of XFree86, and is not supported in any way. Bugs may be reported to [EMAIL PROTECTED] and patches submitted to [EMAIL PROTECTED] Before reporting bugs in pre-release versions, please check the latest version in the XFree86 CVS repository (http://www.XFree86.Org/cvs).

problem solved (Re: [XFree86] odd font problem, under tiny-X )
i've fixed the problem shown in the urls down below. my framebuffer was running at 8bpp. i modified the driver to support 16bpp (i was doing this for unrelated reasons) and the font problem cleared up completely. i'd say that this points at an obvious bug somewhere in the font rendering code. i really don't know where it would be, however. is there somewhere more "official" i should file this as a bug report? paul > i've installed the Xfbdev server from the current Debian "testing" > release. the hardware is an embedded MIPS little-endian device, though > it's a complete enough system to run "real" debian -- not a stripped > version of some sort. > > i've captured three samples of the problem. the first two are > from the "roadmap" application, the third is the "minitime" clock running > under matchbox's mbdock app. the fourth is of rxvt, and shows that not > all text is affected -- just the title bar. you'll also note that in > most cases, not every character is affected. > > http://www.foxharp.boston.ma.us/tmp/about.jpg > http://www.foxharp.boston.ma.us/tmp/menus.jpg > http://www.foxharp.boston.ma.us/tmp/minitime.jpg > http://www.foxharp.boston.ma.us/tmp/rxvtprob.jpg > > can someone suggest what this system might be missing, or, if it looks > like a bug, where it might live, and how to work around it? > > i'm not much of an X11 guy, so thanks very much in advance! > (which also means i'm not sure what extra information i should be > providing about my system to help folks try to answer this.) > > paul > =- > paul fox, [EMAIL PROTECTED] (arlington, ma, where it's 62.2 degrees) > ___ > XFree86 mailing list > [EMAIL PROTECTED] > http://XFree86.Org/mailman/listinfo/xfree86 =- paul fox, [EMAIL PROTECTED] (arlington, ma, where it's 62.2 degrees) ___ XFree86 mailing list [EMAIL PROTECTED] http://XFree86.Org/mailman/listinfo/xfree86

[XFree86] Re: odd font problem, under tiny-X
replying to my own post, with more data: i tried a full-blown X server instead of the tinyx/kdrive server, and everything worked fine. i've also discovered that the "smudging" of the fonts changes depending on what font i choose, and how big i choose to make it. "courier 16" looks very different than "courier 14", for instance. (the screenshots in the links below are "times roman 14", by the way.) so i'm thinking this problem has to do with font scaling. tiny-x doesn't seem to support a font server -- fonts must be served locally. so now i'm trying to figure out how to tell my app (it's a gtk2 app) to use a non-scaled font. is there magic syntax i can put in .gtkrc-2.0 to prevent the use of scaled fonts? a more list-specific question: i assume my tiny-x doesn't support font servers because when i used "-fp 'tcp/192.168.1.11:7100'", it said it "discarded" that element of the font path. am i right that tiny-x doesn't support a font server? paul > i've installed the Xfbdev server from the current Debian "testing" > release. the hardware is an embedded MIPS little-endian device, though > it's a complete enough system to run "real" debian -- not a stripped > version of some sort. > > i've captured three samples of the problem. the first two are > from the "roadmap" application, the third is the "minitime" clock running > under matchbox's mbdock app. the fourth is of rxvt, and shows that not > all text is affected -- just the title bar. you'll also note that in > most cases, not every character is affected. > > http://www.foxharp.boston.ma.us/tmp/about.jpg > http://www.foxharp.boston.ma.us/tmp/menus.jpg > http://www.foxharp.boston.ma.us/tmp/minitime.jpg > http://www.foxharp.boston.ma.us/tmp/rxvtprob.jpg > > can someone suggest what this system might be missing, or, if it looks > like a bug, where it might live, and how to work around it? > > i'm not much of an X11 guy, so thanks very much in advance! > (which also means i'm not sure what extra information i should be > providing about my system to help folks try to answer this.) > > paul > =- > paul fox, [EMAIL PROTECTED] (arlington, ma, where it's 62.2 degrees) =- paul fox, [EMAIL PROTECTED] (arlington, ma, where it's 52.5 degrees) ___ XFree86 mailing list [EMAIL PROTECTED] http://XFree86.Org/mailman/listinfo/xfree86
[XFree86] odd font problem, under tiny-X
well, it's odd to me, anyway, but i'm hoping someone else will think it's entirely normal, and tell me just what to do. i've installed the Xfbdev server from the current Debian "testing" release. the hardware is an embedded MIPS little-endian device, though it's a complete enough system to run "real" debian -- not a stripped version of some sort. i've captured three samples of the problem. the first two are from the "roadmap" application, the third is the "minitime" clock running under matchbox's mbdock app. the fourth is of rxvt, and shows that not all text is affected -- just the title bar. you'll also note that in most cases, not every character is affected. http://www.foxharp.boston.ma.us/tmp/about.jpg http://www.foxharp.boston.ma.us/tmp/menus.jpg http://www.foxharp.boston.ma.us/tmp/minitime.jpg http://www.foxharp.boston.ma.us/tmp/rxvtprob.jpg can someone suggest what this system might be missing, or, if it looks like a bug, where it might live, and how to work around it? i'm not much of an X11 guy, so thanks very much in advance!

[XFree86] Nec Versa FP440 - Nividia GForce2MX
Hi, I don't if I'm at the right support address but I would configure a laptop with nvidia GForce2MX card under Linux RedHat 9. I've download the last pkg.run from the nvidia server and installed it without any matter. I set in the XF86Config file "Driver" "nvidia" rather than "Driver" "nv". The laptop display works fine but I'm not able to use the external connector with a video projector. I got a random text screen in majority blue on the external screen when I used the "nv" driver. If I use the "nvidia" driver, the LCD works but the CRT seems to be in error and remains blacK. So, I've tried to set the TwinView Option without any success. Is it a matter with the material itself. We have some identical laptop with exactly the same problem. For now, I resolved temporarily the presentation matter by the use of the vesa driver. So, I lose all the advantages of fast video card.

[XFree86] Server Crash
Hi all, I have a problem I need some help with. First I will give some info on my setup. I'm using XFree86 version 4.3.99.902 (4.4.0 RC 2) on Mandrake Linux 9.2 My graphics hardware is a SiS 630. Here is my problem. I was re-installing the msfonts and jeft the room for a few minutes. While I was out my young son was messing with the computer. As I came in and told him to stop, he accidently kicked the reset button. After rebooting, my system will only boot to a command prompt. My X server is messed up it seems. I looked in the XFree log and this is the error at the end: /start error message Could not init font path element /usr/local/share/fonts, removing from list! Could not init font path element /usr/X11R6/lib/X11/fonts, removing from list! Could not init font path element /usr/share/fonts/ttf, removing from list! Fatal server error: could not open default font 'fixed' (II) SIS90): Restoring by setting old mode 0x47 /end error message I'm not sure if he accidently deleted something, or if something happened when I re-installed the msfonts from Tex's site. I hope this is a simple fix. Anyone know what I need to do to correct this? I'm also attaching the complete log file. Thanks in advance Paul.

Hello, I have sucsessfully executed Unigraphics NX over ssh. Although it only runs at a depth of 16. 8 and 24 will not work. All is well except that UG creats a "WCS" at the origin, or a x,y and Z axis, and i cannot see this, although I am certain that it is there because I can select it.

[XFree86] Problem with color fonts under XFree86-4.3.0-2.90.43 rpm with NVIDIA drivers
Greetings, I just upgraded a couple of workstations to Red Hat 9, using the XFree86-4.3.0-2.90.43 rpms, and now color fonts don't appear on the virtual terminals when I use the NVIDIA drivers installed via 'sh ./NVIDIA-Linux-x86-1.0-4496-pkg2.run'. Before, when I installed the NVIDIA drivers, everything worked just fine. Now, after installing the NVIDIA drivers, the color entries from an 'ls' command are displayed as black on a black background. The only reason I know about these entries is that there are apparent gaps from a plain 'ls' listing. If I move the mouse over the black on black entries, I can see them one letter at a time.

Re: [XFree86] X configuration for a 25Khz arcade monitor
You might study http://en.tldp.org/HOWTO/XFree86-Video-Timings-HOWTO/ It has most of the details. The refresh is (dot clock Hz)/(total x * total y) and the scan is dot clock Hz)/(total x --the largest number in the x part of the modeline) There may be limitations on the graphic card and the monitor, of course.

I still have a question about this (a silly one because I don't know much about technical details related to video frenquencies) Why isn't it possible to run this resolution at a lower frequency and why isn't possible to run a lower resolution (eg 256x224) at a higher frequency (25Khz) ? Where is the limitation ? In the graphics cards or is it simply the way frequencies should work ?

[XFree86] Dell M60 1680x1050 LCD has ripples
We have two Dell Precision M60 with WSXGA screen and NVIDIA QuadroFXGo 700 chipset. I have Mandrake 9.2 installed, and the NVIDIA XFree86 Driver 1.0-4363, built for this kernel. With the modeline: Modeline "1680x1050" 145.2 1680 1784 1968 2200 1050 1051 1054 1100 (This gives exactly 60Hz--any other refresh rate is worse, and the windows XP driver reports 60 Hz.) startx will start a windows session, but after a few seconds the edges of the windows, and text within develops ripples along the vertical edges, and it gradually becomes worse. When X windows is killed, the display may continue to be slightly ripply for a short while. The Xvidtune doesn't find any good settings. Does anyone know if this LCD panel requires other special settings of the NVIDIA driver, or some other modeline?

Hi Mark
I installed the 4496 version but this new driver fails to load.
I checked the /lib/modules//kernel/drivers/video directory
and the new driver
is there.
I installed the
NVIDIA-Linux-x86-1.0-4496-pkg2.run --kernel-name='2.4-21-0.13mdk' with no
error.
found no problem in /etc/modules.conf as well
from dmesg , the following error occurs init_module: register failed
How can I get the "nv" driver ?
Cheers

We cannot support NVIDIA's binary drivers on this list. We
can help you get the "nv" driver that comes with XFree86 working
though. If you wanted to use NVIDIA's binary drivers you should
try their newest version (4496).

[XFree86] Probably Lost Window Manager [was SOLUTION: ATI: no screens available RedHat 9.00 (and d other problems)]
Solomon -- I'm looking back at your original post and it looks like you probably overwrote some Gnome (or KDE) configuration files. It sounds like when you start your machine you're loading twm (see if you've got a process that ends in "wm" -- it's the window manager). You need to configure your system to start another window manager. That's beyond the scope of this document but I'l lhelp you if you AIM me. kalarmd is probably KDE Alarm Clock Daemon Paul Solomon I.

What kind of card is it and what message are you getting? My ATI Mobility 4 is working with hardware acceleration. It's an ATI Radeon 7000. Every web page I've seen says this card is supported. The exact problems I'm experiencing were in an eariler post of mine, from a few days ago. There's no error messages. The most annoyinf problem is that when I re-installed X, I somehow overwrote some important configuration files,but I've not sure which ones or how to restore them. It is affecting my login screen, it looks like crap. Another unusual bug has to do with the fact that ever since I reinstalled X, I have a process known as kalarmd that is running the CPU at max (or close to maximum) load. Not sure what this process is for or why it suddenly decided it needed all those CPU cycles. As far as 3d acceleration, I tried installing DRI, it didn't work (I kept getting segfault erros with glxgears).

[XFree86] SOLUTION: ATI: no screens available RedHat 9.00 (and other problems)
Hi All, There have been a lot of questions about an issue with the new XFree86 that comes with RedHat 9.0. Specifically, the driver ignores the modeline and eithe (a) can't find a working screen (ATI) or (b) can't drive a non-standard resolution. Other symptoms are that the Modelines set in XFree86Config are being ignored. This issue is in bugzilla and it's marked as resolved. I had the same problem but was able to find a work around. Here's what I did. 1 - Go to http://www.xfree86.org/~alanh/drivers/ and get the drivers specific for your configuration and the XFree86 binary. In my case, with an ATI card, I downloaded the following files: XFree86 ati_drv.o atimisc_drv.o r128_drv.o (These might all not be necessary). 2. Go to /usr/X11R6/lib/modules/drivers and replace the existing drivers with the ones you just downloaded. You should save the old ones, probably. 3. Go to /usr/X11R6/bin and replace the copy of XFree86 you find there with the one you just downloaded. 4. Reboot your machine. In my case, I needed to power down and back up. That should do it. As soon as my machine came back up it was working perfectly. The fonts look better too. Let me know if you have any questions and I'll try to help out.

[XFree86] How do I install 4.3.0 for cygwin?
The current release of cygwin distributes release 4.2.0 of xfree86. I want to be able to resize my root window so I want to install release 4.3.0 of xfree86. I downloaded the install Xinstall.sh program and it told me to download the extract.exe program. I download an extract.exe program and tried once again. This time it told me that I had the wrong version of extract.exe. I ran sh Xinstall.sh -check and it reported the following: CYGWIN_NT-5.1 version 1.3.22(0.78/3/2) architecture i686. I cannot find this extract.exe. Can some one help. I am running cygin on a multihead xp computer. Thanks, Paul.
[XFree86] ATI 9000 Pro problems resolved? Linux kernels do not support 5591/5592 AGP chipsets
I have been having no end of problems trying to get my ATI 9000 Pro video card going and I think I have discovered the problem. I have been trying some different kernels to see if that changed anything. Using "make menuconfig" and "make xconfig" from a GUI in the kernel's source directory, I found the following information: This part is under the "Character devices" section, __ /dev/agpgart (AGP Support) (AGP) AGP (Accelerated Graphics Port) is a bus system mainly used to connect graphics cards to the rest of the system. If you have an AGP system and you say Y here, it will be possible to use the AGP features of your 3D rendering video card. This code acts as a sort of "AGP driver" for the motherboard's chipset. If you need more texture memory than you can get with the AGP GART (theoretically up to 256 MB, but in practice usually 64 or 128 MB due to kernel allocation issues), you could use PCI accesses and have up to a couple gigs of texture space. Note that this is the only means to have XFree4/GLX use write-combining with MTRR support on the AGP bus. Without it, OpenGL direct rendering will be a lot slower but still faster than PIO. You should say Y here if you use XFree86 3.3.6 or 4.x and want to use GLX or DRI. If unsure, say N. This driver is available as a module. If you want to compile it as a module, say M here and read . The module will be called agpgart. --- Under that section is code for various chipset support and here is my chipset for my ASUS P4S533 motherboard, __ SiS chipset support (AGP_SIS) This option gives you AGP support for the GLX component of XFree86 4.x on Silicon Integrated Systems [SiS] chipsets. Note that 5591/5592 AGP chipsets are NOT supported. You should say Y here if you use XFree86 3.3.6 or 4.x and want to use GLX or DRI. If unsure, say N. -- And of course the AGP chipset on my ASUS P4S533 (SiS645DX) motherboard is precisely the 5592/5592 AGP chipset. I found that information in KDE's Control Center under Information -> PCI. Note that I have tried the following kernels and they all say this, 2.4.18-14, 2.4.20, 2.4.21, 2.5.72. Can anyone confirm that this would render ATI's or anyone elses ATI drivers unusable for my 9000 Pro ATI video card and indeed any AGP card? If so, my hearty apologies to ATI, XFree86 and anybody else who suffered my indignation over not being able to apply the drivers after so much work. I really would like some independent confirmation that this is in fact the problem. Anybody have an experience with or knowledge of this?

[XFree86] mga and interlace
I am running XFree86 4.3.0 as built and distributed by Red Hat 9.0 except the mga 2.1 drivers from Matrox mga, mga_drv and mga_dri. I am having trouble outputing interlaced. Is this simply not supported by the Matrox driver or hardware? I am trying to output 1080i HDTV sync timings via analog VGA (the signaling is VGA like most modern HD set top tuners, only the timings are TV standards, so this isn't a TV out issue). North American 1080i signals are 33.75k horz, 60.00 vert interlaced, around 1125 total lines with 1080 active lines. If this is a limitation of the Matrox card, is there a well supported card which is able to do this?

XF86 4.3 says can't find the module, and if i put it in /usr/X11R6/.. it says the module format is wrong, seems 4.3 put the driver into two parts, one in /usr/X11R6 , and that calls the drm unit ( kernel module) in /lib/modules . if you want , you can go into your XFree86.0.log and search "device not found" and see what file it was trying to load, maybe it will help. yang On Sat, Apr 12, 2003 at 12:33:45PM -0700, Paul wrote: > You seem to be using a different driver then the one that fglrxconfig > sets up for me with my ATI *built* 9000 Pro.

Re: [XFree86] Radeon 9000 pro crashed
When you say that the card was working correctly in BSD, do you mean just in single display mode? Were you getting functioning multiple displays? It is very odd that MS Windows would influence the card that way. Maybe it changed something in the motherboard's BIOS.

Re: [XFree86] Problem with X server!
I agree that it might be better to just use a later distribution of Red Hat. But if you have limited resources and want to try a few things, there is a tool called xf86config that you run from the command line that will ask you for information to create a new XF86Config file. This is what appears to be your problem. If you don't know what that is, try the manual pages, "man XF86Config". You will need some information from your monitor and video card. You need at least the horizontal and vertical frequencies of the monitor and the type and memory size of your video card. You should have a good idea of what resolution you want. A good guess would be 1024x768 at 24 bit color. You might want to post what kind of card and monitor you have.

[XFree86] Performance Tuning
Please be gentle, it's my first post here! I am trying to improve performance on a Compaq Armada 7710MT Laptop. This has a (try not to laugh) 150MHz Pentium-MMX, and S3 Aurora 64V+ chipset. I installed RedHat 8.0, and the XFree86 that came with it. As such, glxgears was reproting around 24 fps. I downloaded XFree86 4.3.0, and compiled and installed it, and now I'm lucky to get 20 fps. I followed the advice in xf86site.def, and copied it to host.def, and then modified it with the following: #define XnestServer NO #define XF86CardDriverss3 #define XInputDrivers mouse keyboard #define UseMatroxHal NO #define BuildFonts NO #define DefaultGcc2i386Opt -O2 -mmmx I compiled with gcc 3.2. All of the changes shown above were made to decrease server size and/or reduce compile time, except for the gcc options, which I hoped might improve performance by generating code specifically for the CPU on my computer. Questions: 1. Is there a better way to measure performance than glxgears? 2. Anyone have any suggestions regarding build or configuration items that will increase performance? Thanks in Advance!

Re: [XFree86] ATI Dual Display with XFree86 4.2 ....
So, I guess it is conclusive. The drivers provided by ATI at their site are DEFECTIVE. When are we going to get some good drivers? I'm not going to plug and unplug my monitor every time I boot my computer to get dual screen. They need to fix their package so that when you install the rpms, then all you have to do is run fglrxconfig like they tell you to and that should be the end of the job. Just for follow up ... Yes, I am seeing fglrx loaded when I run lsmod from an X terminal. I'm not sure why I wasn't seeing it. Here is my output from fglrxinfo from an X terminal: display: :0.0 screen: 0 OpenGL vendor string: VA Linux Systems, Inc. OpenGL renderer string: Mesa GLX Indirect OpenGL version string: 1.2 Mesa 3.4.2 The XF86Config file has the BusID line and the Load "dri" lines commented out so that I can at least get a screen.

Re: [XFree86] X Server Crashes, Unable to get to desktop
It says that it can't find your config file: > (EE) Unable to locale/open configfile Your configuration file is a file usually called XF86Config. The log should show somewhere near the top which config file it is trying to read and where it is trying to read it from. In my Red Hat 8.0 installation, it is located in /etc/X11/XF86Config. From the command line, you can apply any correctly formatted config file you want with the command (In Red Hat 8.0) "startx -- -xf86config . See the man pages for startx, XFree86 and XF86Config where a lot is explained.

I am still trying to get my Radeon 9000 Pro installed. I am noticing a few more things. I tried uninstalling and reinstalling my rpm package. The first thing I notice is that even though the installation tells you that the module is loaded, /sbin/lsmod shows you that it isn't. Also, there is a warning. This is the entire feedback when the installation is run with "rpm -i --force ./fglrx-glc22-4.2.0-2.5.1.i586.rpm": ## ## *** Trying to install a precompiled kernel module. - creating symlink - recreating module dependency list - trying a sample load of the kernel module Warning: loading /lib/modules/2.4.18-14/kernel/drivers/char/drm/fglrx.o will taint the kernel: non-GPL license - Proprietary.

Re: [XFree86] ATI Dual Display with XFree86 4.2 _WORKS_!
I am impressed and depressed. I assume that you were having the same "device not found" problem I am having with my ATI Radeon 9000 Pro. I tried making the changes you suggested with no result. I have not recompiled the kernel yet. And I haven't seen anything like a suggestion in the documentation that I should recompile the kernel. I am not seeing the agpgart module when I lsmod. Is that what they are talking about? Can you refer me to a reliable procedure to recompile the kernel? I have already run the two make scripts in the /lib/modules/fglrx directories. Does that ruin any chance of a good recompile of the kernel? If I went through all that, do you think I will have to go through the same weirdness with the monitor cable? It would not be worth it. ATI should be ... chastised ... for posting those "drivers". The only thing they are good for is driving people crazy.

[XFree86] ATI Radeon 9000 Pro driver installation problems: Another clue?
Here are the results of fglrxinfo: display: :0.0 screen: 0 OpenGL vendor string: VA Linux Systems, Inc. OpenGL renderer string: Mesa GLX Indirect OpenGL version string: 1.2 Mesa 3.4.2 Again, this is the problem I am having: I have gone through all the procedures in the documentation to make sure I have the right rpm package for my Red Hat 8.0 installation. I install the package using "rpm -i --force ". I apply fglrxconfig to generate a config file. I try all four possible display configurations and get "device not found" fatal errors on each one. XFree86 will not start up with the config file generated by fglrxconfig. I am also finding that when I run lsmod, fglrx does not show up. But, when I insert it manually with "insmod fglrx", it makes no difference, XFree86 fails with the same errors. Any and all clues that help me successfully install these drivers would be appreciated.

ATI FireGL provides the driverrs in only one standard packaging format. Its the widespread RPM packaging standard which is well known in the Linux community. Respective files are named "*.rpm" and are just called RPMs. Its assumed that this is the method that serves the needs our customers best. The typical characteristics of the provided package formats are: - RPM package (rpm): RPMs also have some advantages in normal use: with nice GUI tools you can easily manage updates, installation checks, repairs and removal of packages. Since most Linux distributions have based their code on the RPM system, RPM is considered the up-to-date method. You may need to download the readme.txt for instructions in addition to the driver RPM. Customers that need specific variations of this packages should be able to extract this package on a Linux compute and repackage it into the packaging format and chunk size that matches their needs. *3. File descriptions * Note: The list below is based on the current driver version 2.5.1 This version number will change when later driver versions get released. * general files: fileinfo.txt - this file - providing hints on what to download. readme.txt - useful information on installation and general topics plus some tips and tricks for common applications. Check.sh - helper script that reports on your system configuration. * sample RPM packages with support for specific glibc and XFree86 versions: fglrx-glc22-4.1.0-2.5.1.i586.rpm - RPM for glibc2.2 and XFree86 4.1.0, the display driver and shell tools do belong to driver version 2.5.1 contents of such an RPM archive (just for informational purpose): - the display driver, including a driver specific library for drm support - the display driver control panels for KDE, also runable on GNOME desktop - in later versions: a tarball with the sources of the display panels - a set of precompiled kernel modules - shell scripts, sources and a libr
Re: [XFree86] ATI 9000 Pro in Red Hat 8.0 with ATIdrivers:Multiheadhas dark monitor
Yes, I see your problem. I've had a little experience with this. In Red Hat 8.0, you must have the Kernel Development part of the Development section of the package manager installed. To compile software to run on Linux, you usually just run those make scripts. But also, you have to set up your system to use the modules once they are compiled. The scripts should do that and maybe they have. I am going to investigate further and I'll post what I find. If you just want to do the compile, all you have to do is run the make.sh script in the build_module directory and then run the make_install.sh script in the next directory up as I explained below. Look at www.tldp.org for some HOWTOs on how to install the modules once they are compiled. There is probably some things on compiling for the kernel there too. I am a little irritated about the whole situation. The only reason I purchased this card is because I found drivers in an rpm package at the ATI site. It was a mistake I will not make again.

Re: [XFree86] ATI 9000 Pro in Red Hat 8.0 with ATIdrivers:Multihead has dark monitor
I had a look at the directories and files installed by the rpm package. I then tried running the make scripts. Since there was no documentation whatsoever, not even in the scripts themselves, I did what is most typical for make scripts. I ran the make_install.sh script at the directory closest to root in the /lib/modules/fglrx/ directory. I then tried running the other make.sh script I found in the /lib/modules/fglrx/build_mod/ directory. This script then told me to go run the make_install.sh script which I did again. I then ran fglrxconfig again, but the resulting XF86Config file still does not work and the symptoms have not changed. Unless something was messed up by running the scripts in the wrong order, I'll say this is not the solution to the problem.

Re: [XFree86] ATI 9000 Pro in Red Hat 8.0 with ATIdrivers:Multihead has dark monitor
Yes. That is the whole point of an rpm package. You apply "rpm -i " and you are done. Why wasn't it just tarred files? Are we supposed to compile everything?

Re: [XFree86] Linux 8 install fails on xfree86
Could you explain in greater detail what do you mean by "unsized the
disk"? What is your hardware configuration and how was it different for
each installation? Did you select "everything" when the package manager
came up in the Red Hat 8.0 installation? If your hard drive was too
small, it might have ignored that and just installed what it could.
I've also had X Windows problems trying to squeeze a big installation on
to a small hard drive. It is possible to install XFree86 without any
windows managers. In other words, the actual programs that give you a
GUI are not completely installed. XFree86 does not do that. Gnome,
KDE, twm and the rest are what do that.

Post your XF86Config file. Just a hunch, but if you have a spare monitor around, try another monitor. If you don't, try entering the Horiz and Vert frequencies yourself. You might be able to get that information from www.monitorworld.com.

Re: [XFree86] Problems with changing resolution
I think I've figured this one out. If you list the screen resolutions (in the Screen section) with a higher resolution AFTER a lower resolution, then the first resolution in the list will be the default with the highest resolution in the list being the resolution of the virtual display that always shows up under these circumstances whether you asked for it or not.
