I have i915 as a module and it's working properly.

Now there's a way to get DRI work with Intel Sonoma (i.e. i915): http://forums.gentoo.org/viewtopic-t-36 ... ight-.html .

I'm glad at least a work around was discovered. But the author mentioned something about strange from agpgart. I get the following and DRI is working:

Code: Select all

Linux agpgart interface v0.101 (c) Dave Jones
agpgart: Detected an Intel 845G Chipset.
agpgart: Detected 892K stolen memory.
agpgart: AGP aperture is 128M @ 0xe0000000

I don't know if this mean's there's still room for an increase in DRI performance somewhere or what. Although, if I wanted a REAL graphics card I would get one, haha.

Yup, provided you can change the graphics card of someone else's laptop

. Seriously, this is intended to help [a little] those who have like 200 FPS with Glxgears and have to cope with their video card.

I tried the guide but I cant still get dri to work, the screen gets black and I can switch between the terminals but after some time it gets nicely colored lines to the right of the screen and the computer hangs. Something under my right hand also gets hot (gpu?)(dell i6k)

That is really wierd. All the lnx_agp patch does (in fact) is to blank a structure before initializing it with a function call. I'm afraid I cannot answer why it doesn't work for you

Might be a permissions problem we all (not only libata.h people) experienced because udev makes some problems. The way to go are some custom udev-rules I think cause they didn't fixed it yet. Try setting /dev/sr0 und /dev/sg0 to group cdrom (don't know if what is right for burning, k3b hangs scanning the devices) before and see if it works.

IMPORTANT: put this in the right thread Dell I6000 instead of this Xorg on i915gm!

Hi guys...

I have i915GM chipset and using kernel 2.6.14-rc1.

I downloaded latest DRI drivers for i915 from xorg and compiled it as a module.But when, the installer tried to insert that module , i got error

Code: Select all

 undefined symbol.. pci_pretty_xxx
FATAL Error: module not loaded..

Moreover..my sound card was working with genkernel.But when i upgraded to latest kernel and installed it. Suddenly when it comes to loading modules for sound card.It says..

Code: Select all

undefined parameter',
undefined parameter',

And loading of modules fails.
i would appreciate any help.

Hmmmm ... wondering if that's the reason we are having the screen staying black after the monitor is shut off. Maybe there needs to be a way to initialize it again so that the screen displays again.

Dont know if I said I finally got rid of the blackscreen? It was some setting in the graphics adapter block...

to get the screen to light up again (using x, su must be the logged-in user)
/etc/acpi/default.sh

Code: Select all

                        lid)    lidstate="$(cat /proc/acpi/button/lid/LID/state| awk '{print $2}')"
                                case "$lidstate" in
                                        open)   su mrt -c "xset -display :0 dpms force on"
                                                su mrt -c "xset -display :0 s reset"
                                                logger "LCD panel is $lidstate"

Does the i915 module only exist for 2.6 kernels? Support was 'added' for 915G in 2.4.26 I think, but I have no idea what that means since there still is no i915 module, and the i810 module still doesn't list supporting it. I'm trying the drivers from intel's site right now but man do I hate looking for drivers.

thomasa88 · Post by **thomasa88** » Wed Sep 28, 2005 8:58 pm

use the i810 drivers that came with xorg and also enable i915 in the kernel

Upgrade to xorg >= 6.8.2-r2.

bkunlimited · Post by **bkunlimited** » Thu Nov 03, 2005 11:23 am

i updated to xorg-x11-6.8.99.15-r4 now this error message is gone and X starts but i don't see anything. no mouse cursor, no windows, nothing. just a white screen that slowly fades to black...

VinzC · Post by **VinzC** » Thu Nov 03, 2005 11:33 am

Have you re-run xorgconfig or any other configuration helper? I think ran xorg -config the first time and it succeeded.

bkunlimited · Post by **bkunlimited** » Thu Nov 03, 2005 2:21 pm

i did, now the grey starting screen comes up and i see the mouse cursor. But nothing more... Afaik twm should come up when no other window manager is installed. When i shut down X with Ctrl+Alt+Backspace my console is totally garbled.

EDIT: after adjusting the modelines i was able to see twm correctly. but after shutting down X the screen is not garbled it is entirely black

i'm using vesafb-tng framebuffer

This is typically due to vesa-tng. Use vesafb instead - you'll be required to pass vga=xxx kernel argument. I think this is largely discussed in this thread. If you have a non-standard resolution, e.g. 1280x800 or 1680x1050, this is for you. Typicall Xorg doesn't need modelines with i915 (I don't have any in my xorg.conf). You can safely revert the last changes in your config file.

You might want to get the most of hardware acceleration. See Getting DRI working with i915 in this forum.

Thanks a lot VinzC!! You made my day

Hi all!

I've been reading this thread from the first message to the last and I still can't get dri to work properly

I get X to run and all that, but no dri

Code: Select all

skybubble linux # glxinfo | grep rendering
direct rendering: No

glxgears runs around 800 fps (this is a P4 3GHz with HT, and the i915 has 256Mb memory.)

first of all, my chipset according to lspci:

Code: Select all

0000:00:00.0 Host bridge: Intel Corporation 915G/P/GV/GL/PL/910GL Processor to I/O Controller (rev 04)

I emerged xorg-x11-6.8.99.15-r4 and i'm using the 2.6.13-gentoo-r5 gentoo sources.

I have the following stuff in my .config:

Code: Select all

CONFIG_AGP=m
# CONFIG_AGP_ALI is not set
# CONFIG_AGP_ATI is not set
# CONFIG_AGP_AMD is not set
# CONFIG_AGP_AMD64 is not set
CONFIG_AGP_INTEL=m
# CONFIG_AGP_NVIDIA is not set
# CONFIG_AGP_SIS is not set

# CONFIG_MWAVE is not set
# CONFIG_RAW_DRIVER is not set
# CONFIG_HPET is not set

I have this in my xorg.conf:

Code: Select all

    Load        "dbe"  
    Load        "type1"
    Load        "freetype"

    Load       "dri"
EndSection

Section "Device"
    Identifier  "TheCard"
    Driver      "i810"
EndSection

(i also tried several alternative xorg.conf configurations, using several Options to no avail)

I also tried emerging x11-drm with VIDEO_CARDS set to i915
same result.

there is however a /dev/dri/card0 created.

but xorg doesn't seem to use it or something.

This isn't a laptop or anything so i guess i could put in another card but it'd still be nice if it would work :~( money doesn't grow on trees :p
