Re: nvidia-driver rebooting machine on X startup

2007-09-18 Thread Eric Ekong 
Seems there is a new driver in ports as of yesterday for nvidia.
Anyone tried it as of yet?

  I've had the same issue, but I think I solved it since its working for
  me.  If I had to guess, this was Jul 27, 2007 that I went through this.
 
  I did something similar or harder in May 2007, but the driver versions
  were older then and so was the ports tree -- it was also on 6.2-release-p2.

 Did any of you determine whether it's a kernel crash or magical reboot by

 Wondering if this is a known issue, or if anyone has suggestions to

  Running FreeBSD 6.2-RELEASE-p4 SMP i386.

  I installed nvidia-driver-100.14.11 from ports (Sep. 5 snapshot),
  Linux compatibility enabled. After loading modules 'linux' and
  'nvidia', I do:

  # X -configure
  # X -config /root/xorg.conf.new

  At this point the system spontaneously reboots. 'X -configure' runs
  fine and produces a configuration without issue, but the reboot
  occcurs when launching X. Nothing is output to screen (it flickers
 as if starting X), and nothing is written to /var/log/Xorg.0.log. I
 do get the same behavior if running 'xorgcfg'.

  Card info:

  NV41 [Quadro FX 3450/4000 SDI] rev 162

  [EMAIL PROTECTED]:0:0: class=0x03 card=0x029b10de chip=0x00cd10de
  rev=0xa2 hdr=0x00
  vendor   = 'NVIDIA Corporation'
  class= display
  subclass = VGA

  I've tried an alternate version of the binary driver
  (nvidia-driver-96xx) to see if there was any change, and it also
  reboots on X startup.


  --
  Check your AGP settings and consult the readme, chapter 9, for the
 latest driver.  You should be running the latest driver with your
 card.

  Make sure you have the correct AGP settings, either letting FreeBSD
 do it in the kernel or disable the kernel and let the Nvidia driver
 manage it.
   
So, I'm not having terrific luck with any combination of settings I
try.
   
The latest FreeBSD driver release from Nvidia is the same as the
version in the ports tree. This is what I've installed.
   
Attempting the AGPGART route (building the driver with
WITH_FREEBSD_AGP=yes and disabling NvAgp support in xorg.conf) still
results in a reboot.
   
Going the NvAGP route (Building without support for AGPGART, setting
NvAgp to 1 in the xorg.conf, and setting hint.agp.0.disabled=1 in
/boot/device.hints) also results in a reboot when X starts. One thing
I notice here; when I specify hint.agp.0.disabled=1, and check the
output of 'kldstat -v' after booting, I still see several agp drivers
loaded:
   
$ kldstat -v |grep -i agp
387 pci/agp_ali
388 pci/agp_amd
389 pci/agp_amd64
390 pci/agp_ati
391 pci/agp_i810
392 pci/agp_intel
393 pci/agp_nvidia
394 pci/agp_sis
395 pci/agp_via
   
Is this a problem?
   
I suspect a couple of problems with what I'm doing. Number one,
there's several knobs to turn (in the driver, in the OS, etc.) and
it's possible I'm not getting the correct combination. Other thing is,
I've been told by a technician that this is a PCI Express video card,
so would AGP even come into play?
  
   Probably not. I'm seeing the same thing on one machine, no AGP on MB, and
   agp kernel modules loaded, but nvidia-driver doesn't care about it.
   Let's kill all red herrings:
   - Is COMPAT5X in the kernel?
 
  COMPAT5X doesn't show up anywhere in /usr/src/; I do have 'options
  COMPAT_FREEBSD5'  defined, though (stock SMP kernel).
 
   - Does running `nvidia-xconfig --query-gpu-info' reboot the system?
   - If you do not load the nvidia kernel module, but use Xorg's nv driver
   does this reboot the system?
 
  No, doesn't reboot the system. Output attached below.
 
  With the 'nv' driver, X starts fine. I don't use it because I don't
  have success with the two output displays and xinerama window sizing.
 
  nvidia-xconfig --query-gpu-info:

create a file called .xinitrc
inside the file should be the following...

to start enlightenment after that just type startx or xinit

Re: xterm conflicts with xorg-clients

2005-11-14 Thread Eric Ekong 
Check /usr/ports/UPDATING.  There should be a fairly recent
entry discussing how to deal with this. Actually it is the first
listing in /usr/ports/UPDATING

20051113:
  AFFECTS: users of x11/xterm, x11/xorg-clients, x11/XFree86-4-clients
  AUTHOR: [EMAIL PROTECTED]

  Xterm no longer installs with '-static' prefix. Users should upgrade
  XFree86-clients to 4.5.0_1 or xorg-clients to 6.8.2_1 or newer before
  attempting upgrade of xterm to 206_1 or newer. Previous versions
remove
  xterm on deinstall so CONFLICTS have been set accordingly.

 After running cvsup and portupgrade, I'm having some problems with xterm
 and some other programs.
 Portupgrade failed because of the following:
 
 ===  xterm-206_1 conflicts with installed package(s): 
  xorg-clients-6.8.2
 
  They install files into the same place.
  Please remove them first with pkg_delete(1).
 *** Error code 1
 
 And then skipped a bunch of packages. Then i manually deinstalled xterm
 (that was wrong perhaps?) and now when running portupgrade again it is
 complaining about some stale dependency to xterm. For example:
 
 Stale dependency: amarok-1.3.6 -- xterm-206 -- manually run 'pkgdb -F' to
 fix, or specify -O to force.
 
 Then running pkgdb -F asks me alot of questions regarding this stale
 dependency and I am not sure what to do with it.
 
 Then I read in UPDATING that one must upgrade xorg-clients before xterm,
 but when i tried portupgrade xorg-clients I got:
 
 Stale dependency: xorg-clients-6.8.2 -- xterm-206
 
 Hmm, going in circles. Then i tried with the -F and xorg-clients started
 to compile, but got an error code 1 with this:
 
 cc -o xdriinfo -O2 -fno-strict-aliasing -pipe -march=pentium4 -ansi

 xdriinfo.o(.text+0x6a): In function `main':

 *** Error code 1
 
 What to do now?
 
  
 
 Don't delete any of those dependencies!  If you do then you will 
 probably have to re-install those packages to get the dependencies back.
 
 I believe upgrading xorg-clients and then xterm should work, if only 
 that damn xorg-clients port would compile!  I found this link late last 
 night which might help, but haven't tried it myself yet.
 
 http://lists.freebsd.org/pipermail/freebsd-i386/2005-January/002040.html
 
 If you don't want to do all that then you'll have to get the xterm port 
 back to the state it was before cvsup.  Either get it from a backup or 
 try portdowngrade.  Deleting xterm port *was* a bad idea, sorry.  If you 
 had left it alone then you'd be left with working xorg-client and xterm 
 installed and could either chase the fix above at your leisure or wait 
 for someone to fix it officially.
 
 Hope that helps,

issues with installworld on fbsd6 libcom_err

2005-11-11 Thread Eric Ekong 
I had no errors when building world, but it seems each time I have
tried to installworld I come up with the same error.  It shows up in
the lib/libcom_err directory.  No matter what shell I try fixes the
issue.  I have gone as far as to delete all the directories in /usr/src
and re cvsup.  I have no options in /etc/make.conf outside of the
ones put there by perl and KERNCONF=KERNELNAME.  Like I said it builds 
with no problem, but error code 1 outs each time during make
installworld.

 All you have to do is download the latest jar-version from here:
 http://prdownloads.sourceforge.net/azureus/Azureus2.3.0.2.jar?download
 
 Then replace /usr/local/share/java/classes/azureus.jar with the new
 file.
 
 Since version 2.2.0.3_B60 Azureus does NOT work with Java 1.5 correctly
 anymore, so you will have to edit the azureus start
 script /usr/local/bin/azureus:
 find and change the following variable: JAVA_VERSION=1.4+
 
 That's it. Start 'azureus' and enjoy version 2.3.0.2

Re: help with matrox parhelia 256Mb with dual head = Success

2005-07-02 Thread Eric Ekong 

Looks like I have figured it out and things are working in DVI mode
with dual head desktop.  It took a couple of friends over my shoulder
to figure this out, but once I did what a wonderful thing.

Attaching my xorg.conf and X.0.log for viewing and I hope this helps
other people out as every other thread I have seen about this card has
either gone un answered or the person has just given up and gone with a
ati card (which I was about an hour from going to do).

 As far as I know there is no freebsd driver for the P-Series
 of the Matrox card P650, P750, and Parhelia.  Everything I could
 find points to using the downloadable driver.  The matrox driver for
 these cards is mtx as opposed tot he mga/mga_hal/mgadrm.

  I'm using Xorg and Xinerama - two 19 inch monitors - one desktop.  The

  The right screen then works as long as I don't log out.  (Locking and

 Initially the second monitor wasn't coming up at all. Now, with a
 minor change or two, I have the second monitor coming up, but it seems
 to bring up a second window manager that I have no access to..., the
 second monitor just kinda sits there in the default kde start screen.
 
 That along with the fact that if I enable Xinerama, I lock up X to the
 point where I can't drop to a virtual screen because the keyboard and
 mouse lock up as well.  If I've gotten this far I must be only a step
 or two away from getting this to work fully.
 
 Need is to have one desktop stretched across 2 monitors. Roughly
 3200x1600 desktop.
 
 Do you have this working with the parhelia?
 
 No, I have a Radeon X300 card.
 
  If so are you using Xorg
 or XFree86 in ports.  I'm guess XFree86 would work in this setup
 better, but it is just a hunch.
 
 I'm using Xorg and Xinerama - two 19 inch monitors - one desktop.  The 
 problem that I have is that the right screen won't display until the system 
 goes to sleep.  So, when I first login, I change the setttings to get the 
 system to go to sleep in one minute, wait one minute, then move the mouse. 
 The right screen then works as long as I don't log out.  (Locking and 
 unlocking the screen works just fine.)
 
 But the problems you're having sound more driver related.  Was there a 
 reason you chose the Linux driver instead of the native FBSD one?

Re: G550 dual-head problems

2005-07-01 Thread Eric Ekong 
Here is my working config, before I upgraded to the parhelia...

attached...

Eric
* Benjamin Thelen [EMAIL PROTECTED] [050630 09:48]:
 
 Hi List,
 
 I really would appreciate your help, because I ran out of ideas!
 
 Basically dual-head works, but only with a little workaround:
 If I start X, with the xorg.conf I attached, the second monitor simply 
 isn't activated, although the desktop is expanded to the second monitor! 
 I first have to comment out Screen 0 and Screen 1 within both 
 'Section Device' for Card0 and Card1. If I then start X, the second 
 monitor is activated in cloning mode. After reaktivating the Screen 
 0 and Screen 1 entries, which I just have commented out, dual-head works.
 
 Do you have an idea what is wrong in my xorg.conf? I played around for 
 example with commenting out Xinerama, removing the second 'Section 
 Device' for Card1, but without success.
 
 
 Kind Regards,
 Benjamin

There are sample XF86Config files in the Samples directory. To use them,
you must either:

- Copy the file to your /etc/X11 directory and rename it to
  XF86Config-4 or xorg.conf depending if using XFree86 or X.org
  X servers

OR

- Type startx -- -xf86config FILENAME where FILENAME is the sample

Re: Azureus Update Problem

2005-06-08 Thread Eric Ekong 
It looks like we will have the maintainer to update the port. I tried to 
sub the new release in place of the current one and tweaked Makefile, but
it fails to compile somewhere along the lines with an java error.  If you
look at the /usr/ports/net/azureus/Makefile you can find the maintainers
email address and try and email him/her, but if my memory serves me 
correct this person is usually busy with tons of projects/ports in the
freebsd world.
