I will try but I don't see how something that has been there forever (and this conf was initially created by xorgconf with modular xorg) is going to fix this. Will have to try later as I am emerging world.

PostPosted: Tue Feb 21, 2006 6:01 am    Post subject: evdev nvidia lockup Reply with quote

I have a problem that I can't seem to correct. I've followed http://gentoo-wiki.com/HOWTO_Modular_Xorg and cannot get evdev to work. When I run `startx', I see the pretty nvidia logo, and my system just locks up, my only recourse being CTRL+ALT+DEL.

In /etc/X11/xorg.conf, I have:
Code:

Section "InputDevice"
    Identifier  "Mouse1"
    Driver     "evdev"
    Option   "Device" "/dev/input/mice"
EndSection
Section "Device"
    Identifier  "Card0"
    Driver      "nvidia"
    VendorName  "nVidia Corporation"
    BoardName   "geForce 4200"
    VideoRam    131072
    Option      "NvAGP" "3"
    BusID       "AGP:3:0:0"
EndSection

In /etc/make.conf:
Code:
INPUT_DEVICES="keyboard mouse evdev"
VIDEO_CARDS="vesa fbdev nvidia"

evdev is compiled into my kernel (not a module). The following packages are emerged: x11-drivers/xf86-input-evdev-1.0.0.5, x11-base/xorg-x11-7.0-r1, media-video/nvidia-glx-1.0.8178

Suggestions?

/dev/input/mice needs to be /dev/input/eventX where X is the number of the event releating to your mouse.

Thank you.

Side mouse buttons seem a little lethargic (ie. not working), but i think I read a post 15-20 pages back about that...

I'm stumped. I got modular installed and running well enough, but there's two problems.

I should start off by saying I'm using 2.6.15-gentoo-r4 on ~amd64 with ati-drivers 8.21.7.

Problem #1, and most importantly: XVideo appears to be broken?

Code:
$ xvinfo
X-Video Extension version 2.2
screen #0
 no adaptors present


The lines:
Code:

(II) Loading extension XVideo
(II) Loading extension XVideo-MotionCompensation

Are clearly present in my logs...

[...]

Any ideas?

Problem #2, and annoying though not critical: Xorg (or more likely fglrx) causes a system freeze after I exit X in any way... is this just more ATI's drivers sucking?


Hi

I'm nearly in the same situation:
- using ati-drivers-8.22.5
- kernel-2.6.15-gentoo-r1
- xorg-x11-7.0-r1

and xvinfo gives me:
Code:
X-Video Extension version 2.2
screen #0
 no adaptors present


I don't have media-plugins/gst-plugins-xvideo installed.
Code:
~\:0>glxinfo | grep render
direct rendering: Yes
    GLX_ATI_render_texture
OpenGL renderer string: MOBILITY FIREGL T2 Pentium 4 (SSE2) (FireGL) (GNU_ICD)
~\:0>


Code:
~\:0>cat /var/log/Xorg.0.log | grep -i -A 1 Xv
(II) Loading extension XVideo
(II) Loading extension XVideo-MotionCompensation
(II) Loading extension X-Resource
~\:0>


Do you know how to get xvinfo back ?

Howto get vmware working again? Someone asked 1-2 pages ago, but no answer, the error is:
Code:
/opt/vmware/workstation/lib/bin/vmware: /opt/vmware/workstation/lib/lib/libgcc_s.so.1/libgcc_s.so.1: version `GCC_3.4' not found (required by /usr/lib/libcairo.so.2)

And I found a strange bug with mplayer/xv:
When I run mplayer with vo xv, and an other window, which is broader than the mplayer window is placed over the top of the xv window, so essentially the top half of the mplayer window is covered over the entire width, a strang glitchy bug manifests. It's kind of hard to describe what happens, but I'll try:
The xv window continues to output video, but shifts upward, for the same amount that it is covered in the top, while in the bottom there is now a space the size of the covered area of xv window where you can see previous video frames standing still and highly 'vibrating' / shifting up and down very fast.

Does anyone have similar experiences, or can anyone recreate this?

I am using:
Code:
OpenGL vendor string: ATI Technologies Inc.
OpenGL renderer string: MOBILITY RADEON 9600 Generic
OpenGL version string: 2.0.5642 (8.22.5)

and x11-base/xorg-x11-7.0-r1

I am 99.9% sure this was *NOT* present in xorg 6.8.x (Which I've been using until 2 days ago), I think I would have noticed before, as this is pretty obvious :)

Same error, with this config:
- using ati-drivers-8.22.5
- kernel-2.6.15-gentoo-r1
- xorg-x11-7.0-r1

In fact just the interface have no more the correct theme (an old one, seems to be the default one), but vmware is working, so ...
I'm more interested by solving my xv error.

This is common when using -Bdirect. IF you are in your LDFLAGS, then do this:

Add to "/etc/portage/bashrc" (Probably a new file)

Code:
[[ "$CATEGORY/$P" == "x11-libs/libXfont-1.0.0" ]] \
        && export LDFLAGS="-Wl,-O1 -Wl,--sort-common -Wl,--enable-new-dtags -Wl,-hashvals -Wl,-zdynsort"


Change your LDFLAGS here (But don't include -Bdirect.)

Da Fox: I supposed you already try to re-run the batch of configuration of vmware ?

Using workstation here, w/o problem. But I was using cairo already before moving Xorg-7. I wonder if vmware need to be reconfigured somehow.

yeah, obviously ;)
I also reemerged vmware-workstation but that didn't help

-edit: I got it working again:
It appears this is an error with VMware preloading the wrong version of some library:
https://bugs.gentoo.org/show_bug.cgi?id=117863 wrote:
"We preload the libgcc_s.so.1 lib we ship (which comes from gcc 3.3) because of
GCC ABI compatibility issues. Apparently, libcairo.so.2 is not happy because it
wants a more recent lib (coming from gcc 3.4)."

If vmware wants to preload the wrong gcc lib file, there's nothing we can do
about it. VMware is broken in this respect, and is closed source (so we can't
rebuild with a valid gcc). Take it upstream.


What I did was search for the offending lib (/opt/vmware/workstation/lib/lib/libgcc_s.so.1/libgcc_s.so.1) on my system (/lib/libgcc_s.so.1) and make the former a symlink to the latter. VMWare is running happily again now 8)

Hopefully someone can help me out,

I am currently running 7.0 without any problems. I am currently trying to upgrade to 7.0-r1 and the process keeps stopping at xserver--1.0.1-r4 (currently have -1.0.1-r1 installed).

I have run rev-revdep-rebuild and it says everthing is ok. I thought it might me a Mesa problem and recompiled it and still no go.

Anyone have any ideas.

Thanks Bill

I tried opengl driver and X11 driver... can't help

My trouble looks like this http://bleh.mine.nu/Screenshot-1.png

What you see the pink thing at the bottom is the UI... It's that way only in Xgl

Spike, (I think) you should ask Xgl questions in the Xgl thread, you're far more likely to get an answer there :)

I have installed XOrg 7, but the scroll lock doesn't work. When I turn off the num lock or caps lock the scroll lock LED lights up, and it doesn't respond to the scroll lock button. There is no problem in the console terminal environment. Anyone has any idea to fix this?

I'm getting it, too, on a newly-installed 'xorg-x11-7.0-r1' running on a newly-built Gentoo base-system. It happens as soon as you touch any of the modifier-keys.

EDIT:If i 'CTRL-ALT-F*' to a console, then 'ALT-F7' back to X, the situation is resolved - but it's a niggle nonetheless, & i have a thing about getting my systems just so...

It's got something to do with the new keyboard-configuration setup, though i haven't figured out how to get rid of it, yet. I believe the scroll-lock LED is being used to notify the user of either a 'change of group', or that the 'group is locked' - not sure which. :?

I also believe it's related to the now-infamous warning :-
Code:
The XKEYBOARD keymap compiler (xkbcomp) reports:
> Warning:          Type "ONE_LEVEL" has 1 levels, but <RALT> has 2 symbols
>                   Ignoring extra symbols

I've been going through the various files in /usr/share/X11/xkb looking for a clue, & mostly confusing myself even more. The /usr/share/X11/xkb/symbols/level3 file seems to be what's causing that warning to come up on my system, coz my 'gb' layout pulls it in, along with 'latin'.

If anyone else can take the next logical steps to resolving this (if they haven't already), i'd very much appreciate it, as i'm taking a break & emerging 'gnome-light' for a spot of relief. :lol:

Does anyone know why emerge --update world wants to install xterm, and as a result of that, downgrade xorg to 6.8.2?
Code:

See how tk appears in the hierarchy, immediately before it all goes wrong? Check the dependencies of your "tk" ebuild.

tk doesn't seem to (directly?) depend on xterm, from the ebuild:
Code:
DEPEND=">=sys-apps/sed-4.0.5
   >=sys-apps/portage-2.0.47-r10
   virtual/x11
   =dev-lang/tcl-${PV}*"


However emerge -pvt tk does give similar results:
Code:
[ebuild  N    ] x11-terms/xterm-207  USE="truetype -Xaw3d -doc -toolbar -unicode" 727 kB
[ebuild   R   ] dev-lang/tk-8.5.0  USE="threads" 3,042 kB [1]
[ebuild  N    ]  virtual/x11-6.8  0 kB
[ebuild     UD]   x11-base/xorg-x11-6.8.2-r6 [7.0-r1] USE="bitmap-fonts% cjk% ipv6% mmx% nls% opengl% pam% sse% truetype-fonts% type1-fonts% xv% -3dfx -3dnow% -debug% -dlloader% -dmx% -doc% -font-server% -insecure-drivers% -minimal% -nocxx% -sdk% -static% -xprint%" 45,134 kB


I don't understand what happens, but I think virtual/x11 has something to do with it, because 'emerge -pvt x11' outputs the same (minus the dev-lang/tk line).
What I'd like to know is:
- Why does only tk seem to depend on virtual/x11 (I do have a lot more programs that use X...)
- Why is virtual/x11 not installed, because I do have xorg-x11 installed

btw, it seems it is xorg-x11 that wants xterm, as an "PDEPEND".
So what I have now is:
dev-lang/tk needs virtual/x11, virtual/x11 wants to install(downgrade is a better word) x11-base/xorg-x11(-6.8.2-r6), and xorg-x11 wants to install x11-terms/xterm.
Where do I need to break the chain, and how do I break it?

Instead, use the "modular X compatible" dependencies as in /usr/portage/dev-lang/tk/tk-8.4.11-r1.ebuild

The version of 'dev-lang/tk' in your output is no longer listed in the online package database, so maybe an 'emerge --sync' would resolve your problem..? :?

hmm, I copy & pasted the modular X depends to my ebuild and that worked fine, tk no longer wanted to install xorg-6.
Now it was aalib who longed for xorg-6 :(. So I unmasked aalib, retried, still xorg-6 came up, now because of some other lib. So several packages later I got it to the point where it no longer felt like installing xorg-6. 8). Is still had to install xterm though, in the end it was xinit who wanted to have it, so I let it have its way.

--edit
That version of TK isn't in portage, it is in my overlay. It has support for AA-Fonts, wich look a lot better in aMSN 8)

I figured as much after looking through the Changelog, but you must have submitted your reply a second before i tried to delete my post. :roll:

Code:
I have installed XOrg 7, but the scroll lock doesn't work. When I turn off the num lock or caps lock the scroll lock LED lights up, and it doesn't respond to the scroll lock button. There is no problem in the console terminal environment. Anyone has any idea to fix this?

I have the same problem and no warning in kbd
II) LoadModule: "kbd"
(II) Loading /usr/lib/xorg/modules/input/kbd_drv.so
(II) Module kbd: vendor="X.Org Foundation"
compiled for 7.0.0, module version = 1.0.1
Module class: X.Org XInput Driver
ABI class: X.Org XInput driver, version 0.5
