DISCLAIMER: This is not a HOW-TO. Some users are confused about the last changes in dri cvs code, then I want to describe the steps I used to install it. This "works for me" on Acer Aspire 1200 series, you can use it by modifications but I can't guarantee what success you have and I'm not responsible if you damage your config, your data or your hardware. This method is based on this page:
http://dri.freedesktop.org/wiki/Building
and I omitted some things (libraries backup, etc.) but don't forget to use it.

Requirements: You must have masked version (~x86) of x11-base/xorg-x11 and x11-base/opengl-update and xorg must be compiled with activated dlloader use. You also must have kernel source in /usr/src. Some steps are specific for my system:

Code:

VGA compatible controller: S3 Inc. 86C380 [ProSavageDDR K4M266] (rev 02)

Portage 2.0.51.19 (default-linux/x86/2004.0, gcc-3.4.3-20050110, glibc-2.3.4.20050125-r0, 2.6.10-gentoo-r6 i686)
=================================================================
System uname: 2.6.10-gentoo-r6 i686 Intel(R) Celeron(TM) CPU                1300MHz
Gentoo Base System version 1.4.16
ACCEPT_KEYWORDS="x86"
CFLAGS="-march=pentium3 -O3 -pipe -fomit-frame-pointer"
CHOST="i686-pc-linux-gnu"
CXXFLAGS="-march=pentium3 -O3 -pipe -fomit-frame-pointer -fvisibility-inlines-hidden"
USE="x86 X X509 aalib acpi acpi4linux alsa apache2 apm arts audiofile avi berkdb bitmap-fonts cdparanoia cdr chroot crypt cups curl dga directfb distcache divx4linux dlloader dmx dvb dvd dvdread edl emacs emboss encode escreen esd etwin exif faac fam fbcon fbdev fftw flac font-server foomaticdb fortran fs ftp gdbm gif gnome gphoto2 gpm gstreamer gtk gtk2 imagemagick imlib imlib2 ipv6 ithreads java jpeg kde libcaca libg++ libwww live mad mailwrapper mbox mikmod mime mmx mmx2 modelock motif mozilla moznoirc moznomail mozp3p mozsvg mp3 mpeg mysql ncurses need nls nptl ntlm offensive oggvorbis opengl opens oss pam pcmcia pdflib perl php pic pie png posix python qt quicktime readline real rtc samba scanner sdl sftplogging sharedmem slang smime speedo speex spell sse sse2 ssl svg svga tcpd tetex tga tiff truetype truetype-fonts type1 type1-fonts unicode usb userlocales v4l2 vda vdesktop vhosts virus-scan wmf xanim xml xml2 xmms xosd xpm xprint xv xvid xvmc zlib linguas_it"


1- Getting the CVS trees:
get sources in the same directory; I used /root/tmp

Code:

cd /root/tmp

cvs -d:pserver:anoncvs@cvs.freedesktop.org:/cvs/xorg login
cvs -z3 -d:pserver:anoncvs@cvs.freedesktop.org:/cvs/xorg co xc

cvs -d:pserver:anonymous@cvs.freedesktop.org:/cvs/mesa login
cvs -z3 -d:pserver:anonymous@cvs.freedesktop.org:/cvs/mesa co Mesa

cvs -d:pserver:anonymous@cvs.freedesktop.org:/cvs/dri login
cvs -z3 -d:pserver:anonymous@cvs.freedesktop.org:/cvs/dri co drm


2- Preparing xorg build:

Code:

cd /root/xc/config/cf
wget http://freedesktop.org/~fxkuehl/host.def


edit /root/tmp/config/cf/host.def and change these lines:

Code:

#define XF86CardDrivers savage
#define DefaultGcc2i386Opt -O2 -gstabs+ -pipe <add other compiler options if you want>


You can choose what compiler options you want; I tested "-gstabs+ -march=pentium3 -O3 -pipe -fomit-frame-pointer" with success. DON'T USE -fPIC (for now).
Then:

Code:

cd /root/tmp/xc
wget http://freedesktop.org/~fxkuehl/buildtools.patch
patch -p0 < buildtools.patch


3- Compiling and installing xorg:

Code:

make World


and if there were no errors,

Code:

make install


4- Libraries switching:
in Gentoo systems, libraries are not in usual places. You should change some locations:

Code:

mv /usr/lib/libGL.so.1.2 /usr/lib/opengl/xorg-x11/lib
rm /usr/lib/libGL.so*
ln -s /usr/lib/opengl/xorg-x11/lib/libGL.so /usr/lib/libGL.so
cp /usr/lib/modules/extensions/libglx.so /usr/lib/opengl/xorg-x11/extensions
ldconfig


in order to use prelink, AFTER installation recompile xc with this line in host.def:

#define DefaultGcc2i386Opt -gstabs+ -pipe <other options> -fPIC

and copy ONLY libGL.so.1.2 :

Code:

cp exports/lib/libGL.so.1.2 /usr/lib/opengl/xorg-x11/lib
ldconfig


5- Building and installing Mesa drivers

Code:

cd /root/tmp/Mesa


append these line to configs/linux-dri-x86 file (or to the right file for your hardware)

Code:

DRM_SOURCE_PATH = /root/tmp/drm
    OPT_FLAGS = <compiler options, see your previous options>
    SRC_DIRS = mesa
    DRI_DIRS = dri_client savage


and then:

Code:

make linux-dri-x86


and if there were no errors:

Code:

cp lib/savage_dri.so /usr/X11R6/lib/modules/dri


6- Building and installing DRM

For 2.6 kernel series:

Code:

cd /root/tmp/drm/linux-core
make LINUXDIR=/usr/src/linux DRM_MODULES="savage"


and if there were no errors:

Code:

mkdir /lib/modules/$KERNEL/kernel/drivers/char/drm
cp savage.ko /lib/modules/$KERNEL/kernel/drivers/char/drm
cp drm.ko /lib/modules/$KERNEL/kernel/drivers/char/drm
depmod -a


7- Finishing up:

Finally, you can modify your xorg.conf to use dri. My sistem runs well with these options:

Code:

<snip>
Section "Module"
        Load  "bitmap"
        Load  "ddc"
        Load  "int10"
        Load  "dbe"
        Load  "vbe"
        Load  "extmod"
        Load  "glx"
        Load  "dri"
        Load  "record"
        Load  "xtrap"
        Load  "freetype"
        Load  "type1"
EndSection
<snip>
Section "Device"

        Option      "AGPMode"   "4"
        Option      "HWCursor"  "True"
        Option      "UseBIOS"   "False"
        Option      "ShadowStatus"  "False"
        Option      "DmaMode"   "Any"
        Option      "ForceInit" "Yes"
        Identifier  "savage"
        Driver      "savage"
        VendorName  "S3 inc."
        BoardName   "savage"
        BusId       "PCI:1:0:0"
        VideoRam    32768

EndSection
<snip>
Section "dri"
        Mode         0666
EndSection


DmaMode is a new driver option, values can be "Any", "Command", "Vertex", "None". "Any" attempts to use Command DMA as first, then Vertex DMA. I've obtained this results with glxgears: 317 (None), 318 (Vertex), 321 (Command) and 321 (Any). This option doesn't work for Savage IX/MX.
After X server restarting, if it doesn't work, play with driver options, especially ShadowStautus (with previous installations my system worked with "True" value, now only with "False" value).

Good luck!

Thanks, I will try and look at the new options from the dri-users lists.

I think a lot of user who found the current cvs "not working" is using a supersavage IX (it's on IBM T2x, including myself)


Thanks for the effort once again :)

Thankyou for laying it out, I do appreciate it, however my journey is not over yet. Still no direct rendering here.
Code:
bash-2.05b$ glxinfo|grep render
direct rendering: No
OpenGL renderer string: Mesa GLX Indirect

Code:

bash-2.05b$ cat /var/log/Xorg.0.log|grep -w EE

but, earlier in the log file, it looks like dri gets loaded...

@salivian: What's the problem, exactly?

@odocoileus: From your Xorg.0.log
Code:

(II) SAVAGE(0): VESA VBE OEM: S3 Incorporated. Savage2000


I think savage driver doesn't support your card. See http://dri.freedesktop.org/wiki/S3Savage?action=highlight&value=CategoryHardware

X/machine crashes on all GL apps like glxgears.
the screen starts showing defective images, mouse pointer stop functioning, then the fonts on console(not X) also got mess up.

My feeling is the driver wrote something wrong into the framebuffer.


the log was fine nothing was reported.

In my experience, when logs are ok, driver options are guilty. Felix Kuehl reported problems with ShadowStatus option but problem can be other. Try to change option values (one for time).

And if you start with framebuffer disabled?

"Framebuffer"

I was refering to the framebuffer on the hardware.

anyway I will do more testing.

Hi. I'm considering joining xorg's CVS club as well, but I work with my computer, so here's my question. Has any of you felt the unstability of your CVS xorg in terms of bugs, breakages, glitches or any distressing event at all? :roll:

Responses would be greatly appreciated. :D

OK, that's the situation:
Code:
$ cat /var/log/Xorg.1.log | grep SAVAGE
<snip>
(II)SAVAGE(0): Direct rendering enabled
Code:
$ glxinfo | grep direct
direct rendering: No
OpenGL renderer string: Mesa GLX Indirect
Do anyone of you have an explanation to that seemingly contradiction?:?

OK, spent the day re-reading this thread. So it looks like the CVS stuff does not work on T20s right now huh? And I started out with the binaries, but didn't got very far... OK, back to the binaries... :?

I promise this is the last update, but I guess it might be useful information for the ones who are thinking about trying it on a T20.

I've installed the binaries, and it's working, that is, kinda. Sometimes it does, sometimes it doesn't. Seems that after rebooting, I have to leave X and return in order to have direct rendering. Glxgears are much faster now, but crash if I move the mouse cursor while it executes, and if I test it twice, it crashes the whole system (although the apm power button keeps working). OpenGL apps all work nicely, then crash. I guess I've got the answer to my previous question now (what does unstable means). :wink:

How about the other T20s / Savage IX/MVs in this thread? Anyone was able to get it working better than I did, and how?

From /var/log/Xorg.1.log:
Code:
(II) SAVAGE(0): 4740 kB of Videoram needed for 3D; 8192 kB of Videoram available
To /etc/xorg.conf:
Code:
Option "VideoRam" "4740"
...And it works smoothly... :D :D :D

[edit] I take it back. It works until I use an app that uses DRI (glxgears, xscreensaver, vegastrike...). They survive longer than before, though. And X crashes on exit. :(

check your cvs installation, the right version of savage driver must be 2.0.0

My box is now very stable and all works well. Last cvs source has resolved my lockup problems with opengl screensavers (I had system freeze after about one hour of screensaver activation). If your system doesn't work with cvs version, you can ever reinstall old libraries (remember the backup of these).

After rebooting check if savage and drm modules are loaded with lsmod. I have similar problem with gentoo box with udev. Try to force modules loading with modules.conf.
However, as reported by salivian, the support of savage IX/MV is still problematic.

8O That's exactly the problem I had, and the reason why I've just uninstalled the binaries. Hum, maybe I'll try the CVS again later. Thanks heaps for that piece of information, AIgor! :)

:( No luck with the CVS yet. It's stable, but no direct rendering. I guess I'll have to wait until it becomes stable, who knows when. Reminds me that this thread started a year ago, and back then people thought it would become stable within months...

If you want DRI now, compile old source. To obtain it, use the -D option of cvs command (look previous posts). However, I think it can be helpful to check (and to take part in) the dri-users mailing list.

What kernel version do you have? Has the kernel been compiled with DRM support? Try to recompile it without this support (and then the cvs drm source again).

Uhmm... According to dri-users mailing list, I think problems are depending by different kernel and cvs modules version. Be sure that you compile modules in linux-core directory and the path of kernel source is right. Both savage.ko and drm.ko must be copied, and don't forget to do depmod -a. Are kernel and cvs modules compiled with the same version of gcc?

So you're saying that the latest dri-drm snapshot works with the plain old xorg-x11 that's emerged by portage? And if that's a yes can you post your "emerge xorg-x11 -vp" results please.
