[Xpert]Screen goes blank on console switching
Hi Xperts, Under my FreeBSD 4-STABLE, XFree86 4.2.0, ATi R128 video card, and ViewSonic E771 monitor, I experience the following problem. Normally, I run my console at 800x600 VESA mode (text reso is 100x37). Under X, I run 1280x1024x24@66Hz. The problem is that when I switch from X to ttyv0, occasionally my screen goes blank, and monitor LED goes yellow. I than have to issue "vidcontrol VESA_800x600" command again to restore proper video mode. Can this be a bug in driver, DRI code (I use drm-kmod-0.9.5_1 for FreeBSD with trunk X' ATi drivers), or my monitor? I'd like to investigate further, anyone can give pointers of how to start? 8-) Thanks. ./danfe P.S. My XFree86.log is attached.

There are (leaked) specs for this card of yours, so you probably could hack the driver yourself. The problem is that those are under NDA and thus not generally available. If you are interested in this in any way, you should contact Keith Packard since he had (recently) the Savage specs available at his site (www.keithp.com). I don't have his email address handy right now, but he surely reads this list. HTH ./danfe ___ Xpert mailing list [EMAIL PROTECTED] http://XFree86.Org/mailman/listinfo/xpert

Hi, Xperts! I've build XFree86 4.2.0 from FreeBSD ports, nice and clean, however, all I was able to get on my S3 Savage4 card is 640x480. This is kinda frustrating, not to say more.

Micro$oft could not even come up with their own implementation, they've licensed the core code from Citrix in the first place AFAIK. However, note how poorly miccies did they Terminal Service -- it's limited to 8 bpp, is really slow, unable to transport sound, etc... The same thing Citrix did gave me far better and pleasant experience. Miccies just suck. X is far more mature, and simply better solution. The *only* thing XFree86 lacks for *me* as FreeBSD user and not Radeon owner, is poor support for Quake3 :) But I do not blame XFree people, I actually do blame nVidia guys, as their MX400 card collects dust on the bookshelf of mine. I cannot stop wondering why they do not just go out and release the specs, bringing a lot more [FreeBSD] people to their products, but that's a whole different story. ./danfe ___ Xpert mailing list [EMAIL PROTECTED] http://XFree86.Org/mailman/listinfo/xpert

It seems that you do have DRI enabled after all. There are two possible things left: * try removing that GLcore thing. I suspect that under Linux you might need it (especially if you Linux distribution vendor included it for you), but who know? I don't have it under FreeBSD, and generally we have [mostly] unpatched, almost vanilla XFree86 in our ports * are you that your Mesa installation did not overwrite some of XFree86 files? I can't tell you that this will certainly break things for you, but it worth checking ___ Xpert mailing list [EMAIL PROTECTED] http://XFree86.Org/mailman/listinfo/xpert

Well, AFAIK, gatos is primarily targeted for creating good and clean drivers for ATI cards that provide stable 2D-accel and XV for them. I've never tried compiling ati.2 with DRI, only XFree86 trunk code with DRI. Does DRI compiles for you without ati.2 ? Also, according to recent post to this list, GATOS will be merged into next XFree86 release. I really look forward to this release, since it will probably (finally!) get me everything I need to get a decent desktop under my UNIX. ./danfe ___ Xpert mailing list [EMAIL PROTECTED] http://XFree86.Org/mailman/listinfo/xpert

Which operating system and X version do you use? It will also help a lot if you cat(1) us your /var/log/XFree86.0.log and your X server configuration file (XF86Config or X86Config-4, be sure to provide the right one, grep(1) for "Using config file" in /var/log/XFree86.0.log). > I am running a Voodoo3 3000 AGP card, if that makes any difference. > I believe you'll need Glide for 3dfx cards, though I'd never tried putting those bits together myself :-) Hmm...

You've probably meant "3D acceleration" here, since OpenGL is merely an API (and you need implementation also, such as Mesa), whether or not it operates in software more, or uses hardware acceleration, this is the main question ;-). Under X4, it is most commonly known as Direct Rendering (DR) Infrastructure (DRI). To check it, issue glxinfo(1) command, if you see something like this: name of display: :0.0 display: :0 screen: 0 direct rendering: Yes ^ server glx vendor string: SGI server glx version string: 1.2 then you have DRI (and thus can play Quake with good FPS). Alternatively, examine your /var/log/XFree86.0.log, particularly for the line similar to (II) R128(0): Acceleration enabled -- HTH, ./danfe ___ Xpert mailing list [EMAIL PROTECTED] http://XFree86.Org/mailman/listinfo/xpert

AFAIK, their drivers are mature and stable enough to be included in core XFree86 CVS tree, aren't they? In fact, lots of people expected them in 4.2.0.
