 Posted: Thu Oct 20, 2016 4:49 pm Post subject: Problem with terminals after starting X |
 |
|
Hello.
I have some problems with terminals.
Gentoo was installed with handbook. Kernel configured with genkernel with a few manual additions.
After some random time from starting X terminal is became unvailable. It is not blacklight screen. There is cursor but it doesn't blink.
Problem appears under kde and xfce. So as I think issue with X server or kernel config.
Terminals are alive.

I would be grateful for the idea which way to look.
Thank you.

Not clear what you mean.
Do you mean that when you switch out of X to the virtual console terminals it's black and unresponsive, or opening an xterm or xfce4-terminal that shows a cursor but doesn't work?
The former is actually kind of common and usually a hardware difference from the reference design. You'll have to live with it most likely if upgrading your kernel video driver doesn't work. This should NOT happen with KMS drivers.
The second is weird, almost seems the pty driver died or something. But want to make sure this is the case before investigating.

Hello.
After the machine start virtual console terminals works great. But after some certain time if I switch to console terminal it becomes irresponsible. Some times there are clear screen with non blinking cursor other it can bee irresponsible login prompt.
I can't to catch the time when it becomes not working.
Did you say that it should work if I compile kernel with KMS drivers support?
Thank you. |

I assume you mean VT1 becomes unresponsive. Did you try VT2 or VT3? Are you starting X with startx or a manager like xdm,gdm,kde,slim? If so which one?
Which version Xorg are you running 1.17 or 1.18? I just upgraded to 1.18 and the mouse was unresponsive after five boots (it's a dual boot machine), the mouse suddenly stared working. Reminds me of Windows ME. |

They all was irresponsible.
Actually, problem is solved.
There was conflicts between FB_EFI and I915, first was compiled in kernel second in module. Disabling all unnecessary drivers and enabling i915 in kernel resolve an issue.
Thanks to iamben at #gentoo.
Thank you. |

Is this very new hardware? What hardware are we talking about?
You may have to file a bug on freedesktop.org with your exact hardware against the Intel driver.

No. It is not new hw.
HP EliteBook 840 G2.
Intel(R) Core(TM) i5-4310U CPU @ 2.00GHz
HD4400
It's not new.
I'm thinking of switching from EFI to BIOS and check it. |
