Me too . . . must have been some "divine intervention" . . . as I was about
to give up on it for the day.  I believe it was the choice for "fbdev"
driver that is the workhorse driver these days . . . it's fine, odd that I
recall seeing "fbdevhw" listed in one of the logs previously but that
didn't work in the xorg.conf file.

Possibly changing the display mode is what "smoothed" out many of the
topo-like blotches.  Later today I'll reboot that computer and see how
things go; like does it generate a crash report each time it gets booted,
etc . . . or it got it figured out and now it will be "fine"?  Did the
"blotches" come back or stayed smoother, really give it a test run . . . .
Thanks for your support on this one. : - )

Good news, after trying three or four different variations, the GUI is back
using "fbdev" and I also changed the mode to "1920 x 1200" . . . and the
log in splash image is "smoother" than it was before, "blotchy" but not as
"blotchy" as it was before the xorg.conf file.

Only caveat is there was a "crash report" generated relating to
"xorg-server" or something like that.  I "reported" it.  There was an
obvious "glitch" in the mouse cursor movement when I logged in which I've
come to understand indicates a "crash."

I'm typing this in the MATE 16 GUI; we'll see how it goes on reboot.
Sending the apport-collect data to the new bug r128 related.

Yes, I'm also sorry for the "noise," but I decided to include it here as
well to show the personal efforts being expended to work on this problem .
. . and the resultant, "now it's not blotchy, now it is a blackish screen
with no images . . . that is happening, etc.

@ernsteiswuerfel:

OK, glad to hear that, yes, I thought it looked "OK" as well, but, it made
no difference in display showing up, or even trying to show up.  Although
when I booted the live DVD session it took literally 3 or 4 minutes for the
cursor to appear and then the desktop; and perhaps I haven't been letting
it take that long with these recent efforts??  It's all become a tad bit
"odd" . . . in that trying the --configure gambit was returned as "failed"
. . . and looking through "lsmod" shows none of the usual suspects as far
as video drivers goes . . . and I did "autoclean" trying to remove "r128"
to see if that would let the xorg.conf get busy . . . and r128 didn't show
up in that list, so I did "sudo rm x-x-v-r128" (spelled out) and then it
said "no such file or directory" . . . .

And, multiple reboots and so forth, makes for a lot of time . . . .
Anyway, as it is now, the graphics are not "blotchy" . . . they are "gone"
so I don't know how I can support a "new" Bugzilla r128 bug with "evidence"
because . . . now the screen is black, etc . . . and there is an xorg.conf
file whereas before there wasn't, etc.

I did look over the Xorg.log a couple times . . . nothing of any apparent
relevance showed up, but then this area is an area of weakness . . . I have
the "dual-boot" install process down, and years back I spent endless hours
trying to get 12.04 to run the display on my old iMac 800 . . . now I'm
generally finding that it is easier to do a fresh install than to mess
around with the console on the tiny details . . . .

But, I was thinking this morning I have some notes about the display
"modes" where I have used something like "1024 x 768@60-32" . . . something
like that, and ***that*** did make a difference on my iBook to get the
display to work properly . . . possibly that is worth trying out . . . .
I'll post back on the "progress" . . . when I get there.

For the sake of correctness I added a new bug:
https://bugs.launchpad.net/xorg-server/+bug/1607891

If you like just add the relevant data with "apport-collect" to this bug
after "r128" failed.

[Touch-packages] [Bug 1541082] Re: [PowerMac3, 1] Blotchy GUI graphics for images

[ernsteiswuerfel]

Added the upstream bug to this tracker. Then I realized that strictly
speaking this bug "X doesn't start with r128 driver (ATI RAGE)
[powerpc]" has a different meaning from this one here "blotchy
graphics". I think it's best to create a new Ubuntu Xorg bug and add the
upstream info there.

Sorry for the noise!

@Fritz:

Your xorg.conf looks fine. After altering parameters check your Xorg.log after 
you restarted X, to look what exactly went wrong with the driver you selected 
xorg.conf. Just use the different drivers "modesetting", "fbdev", "fbdevhw" 
with different bit depths and see what happens.
If your monitor is capacle also always use the native resolution of your 
monitor. The Rage 128 is able to do 1920x1080 if you got the most recent PM 3,1

My xorg.conf file, see anything wrong with it??  Still booting to black
screen--here I'm in "live" DVD and I copied the xorg.conf file:

Section   "Device"
  Identifier  "Card0"
  Driver  "fbdevhw"
EndSection

@ernst:

Thanks for the info and the advice . . . yes, clearly the r128 module isn't
working very well . . . .  I was leaving it to see if there was any other
troubleshooting to try out.  I'll have to look over filing a bug report and
then getting the Xorg.log out to them; I've done that a few times over the
years, but, then so much time passes that it isn't as "clear" as it was.

But, I took a look at your basic xorg.conf . . . I was earlier wondering
that if I ran the "Xorg -configure" gambit, and see which video driver it
would "pick up" . . . ???  I think it would look similar to your file
I have done the xorg.conf thing quite a number of times, using another one
and editing it, etc . . . but, in some ways the -configure gambit is
"easier"???

I guess the question is, if before the r128 install I wasn't using an
xorg.conf file, do I need one now?  Or, I would have to do a fresh install
to get back to "the way it was" and now, no choice but the use one?
Looking over the log it was looking like it was or is using "24 bit depth"
. . . but, now, "can't find a screen"???

[Touch-packages] [Bug 1541082] Re: [PowerMac3, 1] Blotchy GUI graphics for images

[ernsteiswuerfel]

"r128" is the appropriate driver for your card but obiously does not
work properly on your hardware. It would be a good idea to let the
upstream devs know that. xorg/driver/xf86-video-r128 is actively
maintained and still receives patches (last one 8 days ago). You could
file a bug against upstream:
https://bugs.freedesktop.org/buglist.cgi?quicksearch=r128 Just be sure
to have a complete Xorg.log ready to post this bug upstream and state
that it happens on an Apple PowerMac 3,1.

The "Invalid ROM contents"-line does not matter very much, it seems
pretty standard on PPC-Apple. My Powerbooks are working fine also though
this error shows up.

In the meantime you could try to get one of the other drivers
"modesetting", "fbdev", "fbdevhw" to work with 24 bit depth. You can use
my xorg.conf as starting point and edit it manually. Just put it in
/etc/X11.

OK, the journalctl -k just showed the "Invalid ROM contents" lines in red
font.  But, the /var/log showed "loading" of r128 and then fbdevbw  and
then "unloading" them and then  EE-"screens found, but none have usable
configuration"  and then "Fatal error no screens found."

I again tried "sudo service lightdm start"  . . . and then when that just
brought the same blackish screen I tried "stop" and then "start" . . . is
it handled by "lightdm" or "gdm" or something else?

I'm back in OSX 10.5 to type this email out on the PM.

[Touch-packages] [Bug 1541082] Re: [PowerMac3, 1] Blotchy GUI graphics for images

[ernsteiswuerfel]

Check your boot messages with "journalctl -k" and your
/var/log/Xorg.0.log then you will get a hint what went wrong with r128.

On current Ubuntu versions there is no need for an xorg.conf, only if
you need to tune some specific parameters. No fiddling around with "sudo
Xorg-configure" needed.

@ernst:

I saw one of my problems, on the Xorg configure I didn't run "sudo service
lightdm stop" first . . . maybe I'll try that later or tomorrow . . . still
wondering why "r128" didn't show up in "lsmod" . . . .

@ernst:

So I ran that suggestion, and rebooted . . . and depending on how you look
at it, it either "solved" the "blotchy graphics" problem . . . or it didn't
. . . as the display came back to an "energized" display of blackness.  I
can see that the display is "getting connected" . . . but, showing as
lighter in the corners, but overall . . . black.  So, indeed the blotchy
graphics are no longer a problem . . . .  : - )

On reboot the "TTY" logging info shows up, and I recall that back when we
both started talking about this "slow booting" problem, that then, as now
there is the line "aty128fb invalid ROM contents" . . . and I remember
tryiing to find "aty128" in synaptic and or running that in the terminal .
. . and nothing showed up.

Anyway, today that data shows up, all the stuff prior to the log in splash
can be seen, but the log in splash is "black" . . . one difference is that
previously it took a number of windows showing these "errors" to get to the
splash . . . today it got to the black much faster.

>From a TTY I ran sudo update/upgrade . . . and I ran "sudo apt-get -f
install" and it just showed the previous kernel to be "removed."  I shut
the machine down and cold booted a couple times . . . then I ran "lsmod"
and, it was off the side of the screen, but I didn't see any "r128" or
anything listed for "video" . . . whereas there was a bunch of modules for
"snd" . . . .

I was going to give up but, for humor I checked the xorg.conf file, which
was as I thought, empty.  I then tried to run "sudo Xorg-configure" from
the TTY and it brought back a "fatal server error" E) Server is already
active for display 0.  If this server is no longer running, remove
/tmp/.XO-lock  (or is that /tmp/.X0???) and start again . . . . [This step
is beyond my knowledge or experience, so I didn't try that out.]

Possibly that is referring to the fact that the display seems to be
"energized" with black light, but it isn't showing the blotchy graphics or
anything else for that matter . . . .  Obviously I could "rm" r128, but, if
there are any other suggestions to try, I'll give it a shot.  I'm not quite
understanding why there was a "fatal error" on the "Xorg -configure"
gambit, I've done that a few times, from the TTY . . . and then "moved" it
or "cp" it into the etc/X11 or whatever, file . . . but this time it didn't
let me do that, for then possibly editing the "r128" module into it, etc.

Any ideas?

[Fritz Hudnut]

@ernst:

Many, many thanks for the details . . . I can see numerous "errors" showing
up as the OS loads, including something about the "r128" "failing," I think
we've discussed some of these things before . . . but, since for the most
part "things were working" I didn't mess with it.

But, indeed, very easy to test out your suggestion for the r128 module . .
. and then see what happens.  I did check the "Display" stats in the
Control Center and it seemed like things were showing "OK" . . . but,
didn't do any "lsmod" checks, etc.

Might be able to get to that tomorrow . . . I'll post back if and when I do
. . . .  Again, appreciate the time you spent on this . . . .

[Touch-packages] [Bug 1541082] Re: [PowerMac3, 1] Blotchy GUI graphics for images

[ernsteiswuerfel]

Had a closer look at your Xorg.log:

[25.862] (II) LoadModule: "r128"
[25.863] (WW) Warning, couldn't open module r128
[25.863] (II) UnloadModule: "r128"
[25.863] (II) Unloading r128
[25.896] (EE) Failed to load module "r128" (module does not exist, 0)
[25.896] (II) LoadModule: "modesetting"

xorg tries to load the appropriate driver for your ATI Rage, wich is
"r128". Since this driver is not found, it uses the generic
"modesetting" driver, which in turn resorts to a 15bpp framebuffer.

Just found out that the needed xserver-xorg-video-r128 package is no
longer installed by default in Yakkety. Maybe this is also the case in
Xenial. So the easy solution for you would be to "sudo apt-get install
xserver-xorg-video-r128" and reboot. Maybe you get an accelerated 24bpp
desktop again without needing a supplementary xorg.conf!

Nope it is the other way round. The background image is 24bpp but the
display driver has to show it on an 15/16bpp screen - it needs to reduce
the colours somehow which makes the image appear blotchy. Icons don't
have that many gradients which leaves them looking crisp on 15/16bpp.

Re: [Touch-packages] [Bug 1541082] Re: [PowerMac3, 1] Blotchy GUI graphics for images

[Fritz Hudnut]

@ernsteiswuerfel:

Thanks for the post.  I believe that in the install of U-MATE on the 3,1
things ran so well that there is no xorg.conf.  Most everything in he
display resolution is great, and it was only the background image that was
looking like the topo map.

Since the dev had gotten back to me to post the screen shot, and then,
nothing posted/commented back about it, I've come to the conclusion that it
is just the image file itself that is a low spec/low res image.  Other
backgrounds, like the "cosmos" one that changes images, some of them are
perfect, and others have this low resolution issue.

If my overall display resolution was low resolution, which I have seen with
some older installs, then messing with the xorg.conf file would be worth my
time--here, most everything, words and so forth, most images, are all
crisp.  From what you have posted from the Xorg log, possibly I am running
the fbdev driver, in the past I think I found another driver did a better
job with an nvidia card, but, overall I think the display is "fine."

It was just on the log in window, which is sort of like the "front door" or
"grand entrance" to the OS, and the background photo was low resolution . .
. didn't look good.  Doesn't seem to be a concern for those who develop and
or select the photos.

@Fritz:

>From the XorgLog.txt you posted I gather that you are running the "ATI
Rage 128 PRO AGP 4x" in a 15bpp screen mode, so no 24bpp true color,
which causes your blotchy images:

[25.931] (EE) Screen 0 deleted because of no matching config section.
[25.931] (II) UnloadModule: "modesetting"
[25.931] (II) FBDEV(0): Creating default Display subsection in Screen 
section
"Default Screen Section" for depth/fbbpp 15/16

Do you use some config-file in /etc/X11/xorg.conf.d/ or is this the
default behauviour of the ATI Rage 128 PRO in your Power Mac 3,1?

It is very clear in the last photos, if you know what a topographic map
looks like?  Do you know what I'm referring to when I say "topographic"??
If you look into the desktop image(s), rather than a blending transition,
as is the probable intention--the transitions are "stacked" like a
topographic map image of a mountain.  And along with that the edges of the
different "elevations" are jaggedy lines . . . .

On the screen it is very blatant . . . the desktop images look like they
are formed by a low resolution graphics driver . . . whereas the icons and
text are rendered very well.

I think that is also clear in the #135 image.  Look carefully and you can
see what I'm talking about in the photos.  Up to you, just so you know that
it is still a problem, and it is not "subtle" or anything that could be
missed . . . .

[Christopher M. Penalver]

Fritz Hudnut, I think your dist-upgrade to yakkety test is sufficient
(i.e. no need to fresh install).

Despite this, I don't quite see what you mean. Could you please attach
the image unedited? Launchpad can handle files that are MBs in size.

Here are two of a number of shots, I was trying to keep the file size
small, as the originals are approx 1.7 MBs . . . the Xu desktop photo #135
might be a little more clear as to the problem.

I checked the "daily's" and it looks like the MATE 16.04 daily is not
available, don't have time for a 1.7 GB download today . . . that's two
hours or more of dedicated download time to get 16.10 Yakkity.  I did see
that 16.10 offers a PPC file, but for now I'm sticking with LTS.

Title:
  [PowerMac3,1] Blotchy GUI graphics for images

Status in xorg package in Ubuntu:
  Incomplete

Bug description:
  Gents:

  Another issue I found on my recent install of U-MATE 16.04 PPC on my
  Powermac 3,1 . . . had some "kernel certificate" errors on booting the
  live DVD, which carried over to the install . . . and using various
  boot params actually caused the live session to fail.  So, only using
  "live" gets me into a nice GUI display.  Now in the install, it
  quickly moves passed the "kernel cert" error and a couple other
  errors, and display from ATI RAGE 128 card for text is very crisp, but
  the background image and other image files are blotchy and color
  changes are not rendered smoothly . . . 

  I had this or a similar issue in a Lubuntu 14.04 live DVD on my iBook G4, 
text rendered perfectly, but images were blurry and rough . . . .  Any thoughts 
for how this might be fixed?
