PostPosted: Thu Feb 24, 2011 2:05 pm    Post subject: [Solved] X crashed after world update Reply with quote

My X has completely crashed after yet another system update. This is my second crash in 3 weeks....

Anyway, the problem now is that it boots ok, but does not enter the graphic mode. I can change the intensity of the black screen I have but nothing else.

I have recompiled almost everything I have updated. I have no problems at revdep-rebuild nor ldconf.

Here is something I saw in the ~.xsession-errors

Code:

(xfce4-panel:5639): Wnck-CRITICAL **: wnck_window_get_state: assertion `WNCK_IS_WINDOW (window)' failed

(xfce4-panel:5639): Wnck-CRITICAL **: wnck_window_get_workspace: assertion `WNCK_IS_WINDOW (window)' failed

I'm not sure what to paste from dmesg so... I'll wait for questions or suggestions!

Thanks!

Check that X is really the problem:
If
Code:
X -retro
produces a black and white stipple screen with a movable mouse; X is ok.
If you would like a second pair of eyes (or more) to look at your setup, run
Code:
emerge wgetpaste
wgetpaste /etc/make.conf
wgetpaste -s ca  /usr/src/linux/.config
rc-update show | wgetpaste
emerge -pv xorg-server $(qlist -IC x11-drivers) | wgetpaste
lspci -k | wgetpaste
wgetpaste /etc/env.d/90xsession
wgetpaste /etc/conf.d/xdm
ls -l /etc/X11/Sessions | wgetpaste
ls -l /boot | wgetpaste
wgetpaste /boot/grub/grub.conf
eselect kernel list | wgetpaste
awk '/Graphics support/,/CONFIG_SOUND/' /usr/src/linux/.config | wgetpaste

and post the url's returned

Almost desperate....
So, I can"t start the system without the X. If I try X -retro from livecd it sais "module ABI major version doesn't match the server's version" One of them was 6 one 9.
I can't use wgetpaste because it gives me an error that it hasn't wrote anything although it sais it connects to the server...

However, I do not have a 90xsession file or any xsession file anywhere. I have recompiled all x11-drivers from the qlist and fixed some qt updating problems (on -u wolrd they did not appear, but when -p I could see the different versions).

Still no change....

boot the cd, enter the chroot (use your device names instead of /dev/sda3 and /dev/sda1):
Code:
mount /dev/sda3 /mnt/gentoo
mount /dev/sda1 /mnt/gentoo/boot
mount -t proc none /mnt/gentoo/proc
mount -o bind /dev /mnt/gentoo/dev
chroot /mnt/gentoo /bin/bash
env-update
source /etc/profile
export PS1="(chroot) $PS1"
as appropriate, delete the automatic starting of the GUI, for example:
Code:
rc-update del xdm default
Then

If the reboot does not produce a CLI, there are problems greater than X.

I didn't had xdm at boot, manage to remove from runlevels. X -retro produces the same black dead screen.

I assume you are able to boot to a CLI, however will use cd/chroot just in case
back into the chroot:
Code:
mount /dev/sda5 /mnt/gentoo
mount /dev/sda1 /mnt/gentoo/boot #your value if not sda1
mount -t proc none /mnt/gentoo/proc
mount -o bind /dev /mnt/gentoo/dev
chroot /mnt/gentoo /bin/bash
env-update
source /etc/profile
export PS1="(chroot) $PS1"
cd /usr/src/linux
make menuconfig

edit menuconfig to:

With several configrations of xorg.conf I also loose the ctrl+alt+del for reboot and can't kill X (ctrl+alt+bkspace) since this started.
If this gives you any ideas...

several changes did not take affect. Major is the kernel configuration.
You need to try again to reconfigure, recompile, and recopy your kernel.
Code:
mount /dev/sda5 /mnt/gentoo
mount /dev/sda1 /mnt/gentoo/boot #your value if not sda1
mount -t proc none /mnt/gentoo/proc
mount -o bind /dev /mnt/gentoo/dev
chroot /mnt/gentoo /bin/bash
env-update
source /etc/profile
export PS1="(chroot) $PS1"
cd /usr/src/linux
make menuconfig
Edit general setup section of menuconfig to include:
Quote:
<*> Kernel .config support
[*] Enable access to .config through /proc/config.gz
This will allow access to the running kernels configuration when gentoo is booted.
Edit graphics support menuconfig to match:

I have attempted to highlight in red items which must change. I have included every item in the graphics support menuconfig used by my radeon hd5770. If not in red but different from your choice please change your choice.
Code:
make && make_install
cp arch/x86/boot/bzImage /boot/vmlinuz-2.6.36-gentoo-r5
exit
reboot

reboot to the gentoo systerm on the hard drive.
When rebooted to the command line: (The pastebin site is dropping posts so try wgetpaste -s dpaste)
Code:
emerge wgetpaste
zcat /proc/config.gz >> config27
awk '/Graphics support/,/CONFIG_SOUND/' config27 | wgepaste -s dpaste

post the url returned.

There are other items that did not change, let us do one at a time in order of importance.

BTW:
Quote:

The xorg-server developers removed the ctrl-alt-backspace function about a year ago. there have been/are workarounds that mostly require a working X.

Not "removed", but "turned off by default".
Switching it back on is just a matter of single XbkOptions string.

However, the problems started after I've updated something not changed the kernel. As far as I can see now, fglrx gives me the black screen and glx or ati ...I think gives me the black screen with a static white cursor in the upper left corner.

So, the question would be which should be the appropriate ati driver to use? Using this one I can''t change display settings.
Tried flgrx, glx, ati, dri.

The kernel is now ok.
edit /etc/make.conf:

with /etc/make.conf fixed:
Code:
emerge --unmerge xorg-server ati-drivers xf86-input-evdev xf86-input-keyboard xf86-input-mouse xf86-input-synaptics xf86-video-ati xf86-video-fbdev xf86-video-glint xf86-video-intel xf86-video-mach64 xf86-video-mga xf86-video-neomagic xf86-video-nv xf86-video-openchrome xf86-video-r128 xf86-video-savage xf86-video-sis xf86-video-tdfx xf86-video-trident xf86-video-vesa
break up into chunks if/as needed
Code:
emerge xorg-server $(qlist -IC x11-drivers)
startx

Same thing... the only driver working is vesa.

Not to mention that the qlist gave me no drivers... and the initial way with an empty /etc/X11/Xorg.conf still doesn't work.
What file/files is used when the xorg is empty? What I saw in /usr/share/X11/xorg.conf.d has onlu evdev and synaptics conf files...

been the case with ati-drivers for a while now..

Let's start with a few simple questions:
- do you want ati-drivers or xf86-video-ati ?
- do you need that CONFIG_FB_EFI setting ?

A minor note to DONAHUE: when I checked awhile ago, installing both of these drivers didn't made sense,
as due to module differences, there was no sane way of switching between them. With KMS, it became even harder.

Does it say 'Driver in use: fglrx' as well?
what does lspci -k say your card make and model is? memory has it as hd3450 or hd4350 but the paste has disappeared. Please run
Code:
dmesg | grep -i fglrx | wgetpaste -s dpaste
wgetpaste -s dpaste /var/log/Xorg.0.log
wgetpaste -s dpaste /etc/make.conf
emerge --info | wgetpaste -s dpaste
and post urls.
