[Bug 899244] Re: GMA500 psb_gfx
Hi Bodhi, Apologies for this still being an issue with Beta-1. As you've noticed, no solution has been committed at the moment. I'd actually committed the original idea of completely disabling the poulsbo driver. At the time the team was physically together for a face to face meeting and one of the other Ubuntu kernel team developers voiced their concern of completely disabling the poulsbo driver. In the event the psb_gfx driver was not sufficiently working (as it is/was a staging driver) we would prevent a user from falling back to use the poulsbo driver as it would be completely disabled. By blacklisting the poulsbo driver in module-init-tools, they at least still have the option to manually load the poulsbo driver. Unfortunately this conversation took place face to face so there wasn't anything written/documented for me to point you at. I completely agree that if there are issues with either driver, we should be notifying upstream. If you could point me to your LKML thread about this that would be great. Especially if there is a newer patch upstream with Also, just curious what the specific vendor:device id is for your GMA500? Is it's either of the 8086:8108 or 8086:8109 which overlaps with both drivers? If so, I think I could have a much stronger argument to convince the other devs on the team that completely disabling the poulsbo driver in favor of psb_gfx should be realitvely safe as I'd have your test confirmation to prove it.

The poulsbo driver is just a stub module that enables the acpi video support for the panel brightness. This feature is already present inside the psb_gfx driver. The poulsbo module is loaded before the psb_gfx 'stealing' the pciid and not allowing the psb_gfx module to start up and open the framebuffer. that's why there is a conflict.

[Bug 899244] Re: GMA500 psb_gfx
Seconded - a lot of effort has been expended in getting the GMA500 to be useable within Ubuntu...for a little more Ubuntu could become the best Linux distro to support this chipset. There seem to be a lot of users out there who have laptops or notebooks that use this device and getting the last piece of the jigsaw in place would could make Ubuntu the preferred operating system for those wishing to keep these systems going for a few more years (including me!) -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/899244 Title: GMA500 psb_gfx To manage notifications about this bug go to: https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/linux/+bug/899244/+subscriptions -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs

Any idea when we can see this fix in Ubuntu 12.04 ? It is such a trivial change to the kernel configuration.

Small update - the driver has moved out of staging in the mainline (3.3-rc1) kernel It is now under Device Drivers - Graphics support - DRM (Direct Rendering Manager) - Intel GMA5/600 KMS Framebuffer The name has changes in the .config file, it is now called DRM_GMA500 grep DRM_GMA500 .config CONFIG_DRM_GMA500=y and it looks as if the kernel module is called gma500_gfx -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/899244 Title: GMA500 psb_gfx To manage notifications about this bug go to: https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/linux/+bug/899244/+subscriptions -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs

[Bug 899244] Re: GMA500 psb_gfx
I have to correct my previous comment #5 There is no conflict between plymouth and psb_gfx but the problem is only 'vt.handoff=7' as kernel parameter.. This doesn't allow KMS to detect the correct resolution and employ the psb_gfx framebuffer as VT7, resulting in a black screen instead of X. Anyway this should probably refer to a new bug report. I believe that with the 'poulsbo' module fix above by Leann Ogasawara and with the blacklist of 'vt.handoff=7' the gma500 will work out of the box in Precise. -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/899244 Title: GMA500 psb_gfx To manage notifications about this bug go to: https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/linux/+bug/899244/+subscriptions -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs

Thank you for looking into this Leann Ogasawara (leannogasawara) The kernel you build works as expected on my GMA500, thank you.

[Bug 899244] Re: GMA500 psb_gfx
@bodhi console=tty1 is needed because there is a conflict with plymouth. another way to workaround it is to completely disable plymouth... sudo sed -i 's/splash//g' /etc/default/grub sudo sed -i 's/$linux_gfx_mode/text/g' /etc/grub.d/10_linux sudo mv /etc/init/plymouth.conf /etc/init/plymouth.conf.disabled sudo update-grub I hope there is a cleaner way and to blacklist plymouth when psb_gfx is available in the system. -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/899244 Title: GMA500 psb_gfx To manage notifications about this bug go to: https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/linux/+bug/899244/+subscriptions -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs

Hi bodhi.zazen, I've built a Precise test kernel with CONFIG_STUB_POULSBO disabled.

Thank you Joseph, I can submit apport-collect 899244 if it would help, otherwise it is a small configuration change. The stub driver affects only the GMA500.
