 Posted: Thu Oct 11, 2012 4:05 pm Post subject: Updated Xorg, udev : missing /dev/dri/card0 |
 |
|
Hi all,
After nearly a year of not updating udev due to blocks and conflicts, I finally, succesffully 'emerged -uDN' and rebuilt everything, I thought, into a consistent status.
The system boots OK, but X will not start. The main problems appears to be missing /dev/dri/card0
This worked fine until this update.
I've seen similar posts but have not sucessfully applied their solutions
Any suggestions?
thanks

Try emerging
| Code: | | x11-drivers/xf86-video-vesa |
or reemerging
| Code: | | x11-base/xorg-drivers |
with useflag "video_cards_vesa" |

That worked. Or at least got x running by logging in and typing "startx"
The main difference: The resolution decreased. Text looks huge
So what happened? Is the video card no-longer supported by nouveau?
thanks. a big help |

I guess you are now using vesa as video driver, try running "glxinfo" to see what video driver is in use.
I never used niveau so I can't help. You could try reverting to an older version |

You typically do not need the VESA framebuffer driver with
nouveau, because it has a bulit-in framebuffer driver.
But you can enable the not-driver-specific framebuffer
options and helpers, and the kernel will use any that the
bulit-in nouveau framebuffer driver and the card support.
What happens if you configure nouveau to be built-in instead
of a loadable module? (Enable KMS built-in, too.)
Look at dmesg, see if it detects the card, etc.
edit:
I listed the kernel options that work for me with nouveau
driving either of a couple of different Nvidia chips on kernels up
through 3.3.8 in this post:

Does lspci -k show nouveau as kernel driver in use or nothing / something else?
What is the output to dmesg when you modprobe nouveau? |
