So we only expect screen rotation to work for people that only have one graphics card? Or only for specific combinations of drivers? Then we should document this somewhere. Last time I checked the nouveau driver was fully open source. I'd have sympathy for your comment if I were using the Nvidia proprietary driver but I am not. -- Configure bugmail: https://bugzilla.novell.com/userprefs.cgi?tab=email ------- You are receiving this mail because: ------- You are on the CC list for the bug.

There appears to be adverse interaction between the nouveau driver and the intel driver. When I connect the vertically connected monitor to my laptop (i7 based) I can use

xrandr --output HDMI1 --right-of LVDS1 --rotate right

and the rotation works as expected.

It is certainly problem somewhere in the output sourcing from one gpu to another. Rotated monitors on one gpu are well tested and working. Changing the bug description to make the situation clear. -- Configure bugmail: https://bugzilla.novell.com/userprefs.cgi?tab=email ------- You are receiving this mail because: ------- You are on the CC list for the bug.

https://bugzilla.novell.com/show_bug.cgi?id=878667 https://bugzilla.novell.com/show_bug.cgi?id=878667#c8 --- Comment #8 from Michal Srb 2014-06-06 12:24:34 UTC --- The problem is that rrCheckPixmapBounding function in X server doesn't consider rotation of monitors. This function is called only when you set up monitors of output slaved graphic cards, not when you set up monitors of main graphic card. It calculates incorrect framebuffer size and sets it up. That's probably why your monitors get messed up after the first xrandr command. Additionally it incorrectly sets physical size to 0x0 mm. That's why any subsequent xrandr command fails with BadValue already in RRSetScreenSize. (You can prevent this by giving --dpi parameter to xrandr, but it will still set the wrong framebuffer size as it does when called first time.) Summary: Bug is in X server, not in any of the drivers, it won't happen if you use only one gpu, there are at least two separate bugs in rrCheckPixmapBounding. -- Configure bugmail: https://bugzilla.novell.com/userprefs.cgi?tab=email ------- You are receiving this mail because: ------- You are on the CC list for the bug.

Cool, do I need to file new bugs? No, it's part of this bug.

The rrCheckPixmapBounding function looked quite weird, so I asked upstream and it looks like it should be removed completely. I'll make you a build without it to test. -- Configure bugmail: https://bugzilla.novell.com/userprefs.cgi?tab=email ------- You are receiving this mail because: ------- You are on the CC list for the bug.

The good news is that the adverse effect on the other monitors observed and described previously when attempting to rotate the display is no longer observed. Thus at least one problem got resolved. The bad news is that rotation doesn't work. When using xrandr --output HDMI2 --rotate right The display is not rotated. It appears as if the "resolution" (I know I am using the improper term) changes some how. What I am observing is that the background logo which is normally centered on the display moves toward the lower left corner of the monitor while also appearing to "increase" in size. This is consistent with "change in resolution" behavior, thus I used that term. Bu the logo does not rotate. FYI the "HDMI2" output is the Intel graphics on the CPU. -- Configure bugmail: https://bugzilla.novell.com/userprefs.cgi?tab=email ------- You are receiving this mail because: ------- You are on the CC list for the bug.

This incarnation is worse than the previous one. When I try to rotate the display on the "spanned" display, i.e. the monitor connected to the Intel graphics the x-server becomes completely unresponsive. The windows on the other monitors are blank, i.e. the frame is rendered but no content in the frames. -- Configure bugmail: https://bugzilla.novell.com/userprefs.cgi?tab=email ------- You are receiving this mail because: ------- You are on the CC list for the bug.
