[Desktop-packages] [Bug 1316035] Re: matrox g200eR2 is unclaimed in 14.04

[Alecz20]

I had the same problem with Ubuntu 16.04 on a Dell PowerEdge T610.

I managed to resolve it by upgrading to 4.15 hwe Kernel:

[lixiaoquan]

I have a Dell R430 server which suffers this issue.

My problem is that in a xrdp session, "xrandr -v" reports: "server
report RandR version 1.1."

After following steps, it still report RandR version is 1.1

0. load mag.ko
1. build and load maga200.ko
2. build mag_drv.so 1.6.5 (downloaded from 
(https://launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/xserver-xorg-video-mga/+publishinghistory).

3. restart x by 
   sudo /etc/init.d/lightdm restart

I check the /var/log/Xorg.0.log and it shows "RandR 1.2 Enabled" and mge_drv 
version is 1.6.5
and lchw -c display shows maga200.ko is loaded correctly.

I really don't know what else should be done to solve this.

[Walter Ma]

Had the same problem on a Dell PowerEdge R730 with Ubuntu 16.04LTS.
Installing module mgag200 as suggested by Ivo Straka's (approach n. 1) worked 
for me.

But as Giorgio Signorini comment #61, after installed mgag200 module and set 
xorg driver to mgag200 and restart X.
In /var/log/xorg.0.log, there will have somes errors like "Could not load 
driver maga200", and finally fall back to xserver-xorg-video-mga if installed.

Actually, in xf86-video-mga
1.6.5(https://cgit.freedesktop.org/xorg/driver/xf86-video-mga/) has
added support for g200e, while in ubuntu 16.04 only with 1.6.4
version(https://launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/xserver-xorg-video-mga),
and 1.6.5 only for Zesty(https://launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/xserver-
xorg-video-mga/+publishinghistory).

This is because of dependency problem, or not？ Since I'm new to linux,
maybe who could build xf86-video-mga 1.6.5 in ubuntu 16.04 or give some
ideas about how to build?

[Desktop-packages] [Bug 1316035] Re: matrox g200eR2 is unclaimed in 14.04

[Ivo Straka]

For reference, a couple of users have been experiencing the same issue
on HP ProLiant MicroServer Gen8, which use Matrox MGA G200EH, the
original culprit that caused the module mgag200 to be excluded from the
kernel years ago.

https://community.hpe.com/t5/ProLiant-Servers-Netservers/HP-ProLiant-
Gen8-with-Ubuntu-16-and-no-monitor-using-iLO-remote/m-p/6972709

In the linked topic, I put together a step-by-step walkthrough through
installing the mgag200 module for Ubuntu or Ubuntu-based distros like
Mint. Some users might find it helpful.

Unfortunately, only one novice user tried this on HP Gen8 and apparently
it did not work. I am not sure whether the mgag200 module just does not
work with G200EH yet or whether there was some mistake made in the
approach either by me or the user. It would be very helpful for someone
to test this with this specific chip and report in more detail.

[Desktop-packages] [Bug 1316035] Re: matrox g200eR2 is unclaimed in 14.04

[Ivo Straka]

Short version: kernel module driver "mgag200" did the trick for me. In kernel 
config, it is represented by CONFIG_DRM_MGAG200.
http://cateee.net/lkddb/web-lkddb/DRM_MGAG200.html

I found a bug that is relevant to this one:
https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/linux/+bug/1642470 It says
that the kernel module "mgag200" was blacklisted from kernels due to
this bug: https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/linux/+bug/1042903 I
tried manually compiling the driver as a module, adding it to a kernel
and it worked.

I had problems with MGA G200e [Pilot] ServerEngines (SEP1) card. I tried
Zoltán's X.org regression hack, I also tried using a recompiled up-to-
date mga_drv.so, the library in xserver-xorg-video-mga, where the
maintainers claim to support G200e chip
(https://cgit.freedesktop.org/xorg/driver/xf86-video-mga/, commits from
July 2016). Nothing worked. I am, however, just an intermediate user, so
I might have made a mistake somewhere. I also do not know the difference
between a kernel driver, X.org driver, and how they interact together
and how they are used. Therefore I will trust someone more knowledgeable
to put this all together, and I am just going to describe what I did to
make it work :-)

As a reference, I did a fresh install of Linux Mint 18.1 MATE, where the
GPU was unclaimed:

$ uname -a
Linux rack3test 4.4.0-66-generic #87-Ubuntu SMP Fri Mar 3 15:29:05 UTC 2017 
x86_64 x86_64 x86_64 GNU/Linux

   configuration: latency=0
   resources: memory:c200-c2ff memory:c101-c1013fff 
memory:c080-c0ff memory:c100-c100

Then I tried two approaches, both worked.

1. the easier way is to compile and install just the module mgag200. I
downloaded the sources and headers for the current kernel, compiled and
installed the module, and then added it in the initramfs image. Then,
after reboot, it worked. Here are the resources I used:

http://askubuntu.com/questions/168279/how-do-i-build-a-single-in-tree-kernel-module
http://askubuntu.com/questions/676707/how-to-load-a-module-in-initrd

In the first one, do not forget to use your kernel version and the path
to the module (drivers/gpu/drm/mgag200). Also it is probably more
convenient to use "$ make menuconfig" instead of editing the .config
file with vi (you need the ncurses package though). In the menu, find
Graphics Drivers --> Graphics Support --> Kernel modesetting driver for
MGA G200 server engines, and enable it as a module. When updating
initramfs, it might be necessary to specify the kernel version, for
example $ update-initramfs -u -k 4.4.0-66-generic. If you have multiple
kernels, the command will tell you which initramfs it updated.

The result after a reboot:
$ uname -a
Linux rack3test 4.4.0-66-generic #87-Ubuntu SMP Fri Mar 3 15:29:05 UTC 2017 
x86_64 x86_64 x86_64 GNU/Linux

   resources: irq:16 memory:c200-c2ff memory:c101-c1013fff 
memory:c080-c0ff memory:c100-c100

2. Second way is building a new kernel, which is much longer;
unfortunately, I tried it first :-) I downloaded the current stable
kernel sources from kernel.org, version 4.10.1. Then I used the existing
kernel config file for 4.4.0-66-generic, updated it with default choices
to 4.10.1 and enabled CONFIG_DRM_MGAG200 as a module. I compiled the
whole kernel and installed it, the new driver "mgag200" loads
automatically and it works.

I used Linux Mint 18.1 for testing, but the installed system is Mint
17.2. I tried compiling the kernel module there for kernel version
3.16.0-38-generic, but after enabling module mgag200 with modprobe, the
screen turned black and monitor went into sleep mode. I had to switch to
tty1 and reboot. After reboot, the module mgag200 was visible in lsmod,
but probably not active and the GPU was still unclaimed with no hardware
acceleration.

Maybe I did something wrong, but it is possible that the mgag200 module
helps only with newer kernels.

You can check whether your device is recognized by this driver in the
first link in this comment. Numeric ID (vendor, device) can be displayed
by running $ sudo lshw -c display -numeric, it will be in square

[Desktop-packages] [Bug 1316035] Re: matrox g200eR2 is unclaimed in 14.04

[Jaime]

Same problem on IBM System x3400 M2, Ubuntu 14.04.3.  Zoltán Maróti
solution indeed improved the graphical interface. The problem here is
that the text terminals (ctrl-alt-Fx) or booting in text mode without
loading lightdm renders an unreadable screen with green squares or blue
lines . I wonder if it is a consequence of the same bug or not. If
anyone observed the same problem please let us know.

[Desktop-packages] [Bug 1316035] Re: matrox g200eR2 is unclaimed in 14.04

[Celsius]

Same problem here on a certified PowerEdge r820 with Ubuntu server
14.04.2, no GUI installed, only CLI.

The framerate is very slow, using commands like 'ls' or 'less' is almost
painful. Adding vesa or mga drivers didn't change a thing. I cannot put
a personalized xorg.conf since xorg-server is not even installed.

I found two separate workarounds (not fixes) to this:

1. install openssh server and log into the server from another machine. 
Everything works fine, fast and responsive.
2. modify /etc/default/grub to reduce the resolution of CLI by editing the line 
GRUB_CMDLINE_LINUX_DEFAULT= into GRUB_CMDLINE_LINUX_DEFAULT=splash 
vga=1024x768x24. Then run sudo update-grub and reboot. CLI is now low 
resolution but fast and responsive.

I didn't try with higher resolution yet. I think I'll settle for using
SSH anyway.

Note that if you apply solution 1 and 2 above, you get the best of both:
you can still log with SSH with high resolution (full HD here) *and*
have a responsive low-resolution local terminal on site.

We too have the same problemwith ubuntu 14.04 LTS  on DELL poweredgeR520
as well as on poweredge R320. The display is very slow with terrible
framerates. I have also updated the ubuntu to 14.04.2 LTS but still the
problem exists. Please suggest a work around for this issue.

[John Sopko]

I did an online chat with Dell to see if they new anything about this
and they could not help. Here was there response:

Ok. Well, I had them review the article and they see many vendors
having the same issue. We don't have any updates / patches for the
Matrox graphics card for this kind of issue. Were feeling that this is a
desktop OS that is likely a little more graphics intensive than what the
server mobo onboard video can do.

They had the linux group review this bug. BTW, window 7 and windows 8.1
work fine with this video card and mobo is a short for motherboard.

We have put in an inexpensive nvida card in our servers if we need to
use the gui to get around this issue.

[gaoshen]

Find a way to workaround.

I have a PowerEdge R620 which installed a Ubuntu 12.04 TLS. And I found
the screen refreshing became very slow. So I share the same issue with
yours.

First,then we have to install vesa driver:
sudo apt-get install xserver-xorg-video-vesa
 
Then, for some of the Ubuntu release don't have a xorg.conf, so I have to 
generate one with following steps:

1.switch to console mode: Alt+Ctrl+F1
2.kill x server: sudo service lightdm stop
3.generate new xorg.conf file: sudo X -configure -- this will create 
xorg.conf.new file in your current dir
4.rename and move: sudo mv xorg.conf.new /etc/X11/xorg.conf
5.open /etc/X11/xorg.conf, replace the graphic driver of 'mga' with 'vesa'.t
6.return to GUI: sudo start lightdm

[JohnWashington]

Presumably Ubuntu devs will not be interested in this.  It needs
reporting by everyone to the Xorg developers to get their attention.
How does one do that?

Does anyone know WHY they decided to rip out XAA (whatever that is)?

[Blaisorblade]

Same problem with certified [PowerEdge
R320](http://www.ubuntu.com/certification/hardware/201207-11432/) and
Ubuntu 14.04.

Personally, I am not necessarily interested in getting 3D acceleration
supported for such an old card (and for a server!). *However*, I'd like
basic graphic functionality to work decently; right now I got that by
installing xubuntu-desktop, but it'd be generally cool if compiz/gnome
would disable cool effects automatically, based on available hardware.

Adapting Andromalius solution with a simple xorg.conf with

Brings back a usable system UI-wise on the T320. The graphics card is
still unclaimed though:

Tried a recommended xorg.conf:

Doesn't help, as expected after Zoltán's comments.

Hi Zoltan, Thank you for your tips. For the moment the servers are back
in their cardboard boxes but I will try this after the weekend and
report back here.

Hi,

Problem could be that you have other packages installed in the xorg-driver
package which were pulled automatically when you installed X. That means
you have probably other modules and dependencies unresolved. What I did was
first of all removing all unecessary xorg driver packages, xorg modules
which has nothing to do with this configuration anyway. Then I copied only
the corresponding package content from 12.04 (that is in my hack tar.gz).

My package list is therfore pretty lean:
dpkg -l | grep xorg
ii  xorg
1:7.7+1ubuntu8amd64X.Org X Window System
ii  xorg-docs-core
1:1.7-1   all  Core documentation for
the X.org X Window System

2014-06-28 11:41 GMT+02:00 iwbnwif iwbn...@gmail.com:

 I am having exactly the same issue as this on two brand new Dell
 PowerEdge R360 which I am setting up for the first time. This server is
 also certified for use with 14.04 LTS
 http://www.ubuntu.com/certification/hardware/201207-11432/

 I tried to apply Zoltan's hack but ended up with a system that won't
 boot. I guess this is something to do with the fact that Grub is using
 the framebuffer otherwise I can't see how the changes would stop even a
 text screen appearing.

 In the end I installed 12.04 which works almost flawlessly (resizing
 windows is still painfully slow). However given these are new servers I
 would like to start them off with the latest LTS.

 Zoltan if you read this please could you give any hint why we are
 getting different results with the hack?

Re: [Desktop-packages] [Bug 1316035] Re: matrox g200eR2 is unclaimed in 14.04

[Zoltán Maróti]

Hi,

Actually if you read through my report I finally figured what is the
problem. It is not ubuntu's fault. Xorg upstream simply decided to rip XAA
from Xorg 1.13, and 14.04 has Xorg 1.15 or something like that. So
basically in 12.04 there was no hardware acceleration either unless you
defined 1208x1024 which fits in matrox 200ge's memory for framebuffer. This
option is still ok on 14.04 so if you don't need 1920x1080 then it should
be reasonable quick (in my case I have a big monitor with FHD resolution so
I wanted to use it like in 12.04 where XAA could handle the desktop pretty
fine at this resolution.

Anyway, I did a nasty hack and avoiding the dependency hell (downgrading to
older X would make million otherwise working packages to change as well) so
I simply copied some files from 12.04 precise:

the files were:
/lib/x86_64-linux-gnu/libudev.so.0*
/usr/bin/Xorg
/usr/bin/cvt
/usr/bin/gtf
/usr/lib/xorg/modules/*

This downgrades Xorg to precise latest with XAA. To avoid breaking the X
system with later X upgrades you have to hold the following packages:
xserver-xorg-core
xserver-xorg-input-evdev
xserver-xorg-input-mouse
xserver-xorg-input-vmmouse
xserver-xorg-video-mga
xserver-xorg-video-vmware

Then just restart X and you are enjoing mga200 with XAA and enough
performance for 1920x1080p

I am attaching the tar.gzipped files from precise I saved for later for you
in case you wanna experiment. If you are going to apply it, backup the
files which will be overwritten for any case.

regards
Zoltan

Actually it seems that the cause is the new xserver-xorg-core, it seems
that XAA rendering was ripped out from 1.15.1 (no libxaa.so in package).

In old Xorg.0.log rendering was falling back to XAA:

In 14.04 there is no XAA acceleration anymore

unfortunately without XAA moving a window is like a slug

[Desktop-packages] [Bug 1316035] Re: matrox g200eR2 is unclaimed in 14.04

[Zoltán Maróti]

Reading documentation on the mga_drv.so and checking the source files of 
xserver-xorg-video-mga_1.6.3-1build1_amd64.deb I see that matrox driver has a 
built in support for EXA in config.h
/* Build support for Exa */
#define USE_EXA 1

/* Build support for XAA */
/* #undef USE_XAA */

/* Version number of package */
#define VERSION 1.6.3

However it seems that it is not activated or checked at runtime, any
clues how this could be activated? It might bring back the lost
functionality of XAA acceleration.

[Desktop-packages] [Bug 1316035] Re: matrox g200eR2 is unclaimed in 14.04

[Zoltán Maróti]

Activating EXA
Section Device
Identifier mga
Driver mga
Option AccelMethod EXA
Option EXANoComposite True
Option EXANoDownloadFromScreen True
Option EXANoUploadToScreen True
Endsection

makes it worse than normal software render.

It results in hanging X without disabling Compsite/DownloadFromScreen.
Disabling Composite, DownloadFromScreen results in fully corrupted
screen, disabling UploadToScreen helps a little, however screen is still
corrupted (moving a window over another leaves traces in the inactive
windows behind).

The remaining acceleration
[   268.727] (**) MGA(0): EXA: Disabling Composite operation (RENDER 
acceleration)
[   268.727] (**) MGA(0): EXA: Disabling UploadToScreen
[   268.727] (**) MGA(0): EXA: Disabling DownloadFromScreen
[   268.727] (II) EXA(0): Offscreen pixmap area of 8474624 bytes
[   268.727] (II) EXA(0): Driver registered support for the following 
operations:
[   268.727] (II) Solid
[   268.727] (II) Copy
[   268.727] (==) MGA(0): Backing store enabled

is just as slow as normal render = EXA + matrox card is not usable
