 Posted: Sun Jan 08, 2012 10:41 pm Post subject: Black screen with AMD A4-3300M after update to kernel 3.1 |
 |
|
KMS works for my AMD A4-3300M with kernels 3.0.15-gentoo, 3.0.8-hardened-r1 and 3.0.4-hardened-r5. mesa-7.11.2 + xf86-video-ati-6.14.3 are stable with glxgears, xonotic and firefox webgl.
glxinfo|grep -i opengl:
| Code: |
OpenGL vendor string: X.Org
OpenGL renderer string: Gallium 0.4 on AMD SUMO
OpenGL version string: 2.1 Mesa 7.11.2
OpenGL shading language version string: 1.20
|
But after update to 3.1.7 kernels I have only black screen with backlight turned off. Kernel config is almost same (enabled 3 hid modules). List of broken kernels: 3.1.6-hardened, 3.1.7-gentoo, 3.1.7-hardened, 3.2.0-gentoo.
lspci -k for kernel 3.1.7-hardened:

dmesg - http://paste.pocoo.org/show/531991/
kernel config - http://paste.pocoo.org/show/531989/
P.S. How is it better to attach logs and configs? With code tags post is too long, but using pastebins seems bad idea. Does current phpbb support scrollable 'code' tags? |

you don't need FB enabled in your kernel, remove all beside CONFIG_FIRMWARE_EDID and try again.
btw, you have two cards, I'd recommend you update lspci and try the other just to see if the problem reoccurs incase removing FB doesn't work.

My laptop has UEFI instead of BIOS. Without CONFIG_FB_EFI=y and CONFIG_FRAMEBUFFER_CONSOLE=y (with =m is broken) kms did not work, but I can try again.
By updating lspci do you mean 'update-pciids' or installing pciutils-3.1.8? |

I have ufi bios too and these are enabled at my config too. I meant the rest.
as for the second one, update-pciids

Black screen again.
dmesg - http://paste.pocoo.org/show/532364/
.config - http://paste.pocoo.org/show/532365/
Not sure how can I try discrete card. uefi has only option for disabling it, not enabling.

0:IGD: :Off:0000:00:01.0

vgaswitcheroo seems to work, but screen is still black. |

for vgaswitcheroo to fully work, you need to restart your X after the transition.\
try to force the discrete card in the bios.

I know about restarting (from https://help.ubuntu.com/community/HybridGraphics ), after X restart i have black screen too.
My UEFI does not have option for forcing discrete card, only for integrated, called 'Disable Hybrid graphics'. |

I see, try upgrading to newer kernel, maybe it is a kernel bug

Newer 3.2.0? Do you mean latest git? |

I had this same problem with my laptop. I assumed it was introduced in kernel 3.2, which would have been way too many changes to debug, but thanks to the list of non-working kernel versions in this thread I started checking the 3.1 series. I found this commit, reverted it, and the problem was solved. I have also reopened the bug report where this change originally comes from.
I hope this helps. |

LoneFox, thank you a lot!  3.1.7-gentoo is now working almost perfect: console switching, suspend-resume, glxgears and xonotic are stable. Only discrete graphics card is not usable (black screen).
Used this patch: http://paste.pocoo.org/show/533454/
Is there gentoo bug or I should open new?
Will test hardened kernel now.
----
Same with 3.1.7-hardened, but /sys/kernel/debug/vgaswitcheroo does not exist. |
