https://bugzilla.novell.com/show_bug.cgi?id=247012 ------- Comment #5 from ian.grant@cl.cam.ac.uk 2007-03-05 03:57 MST ------- I'm sorry about that. The machine is in constant use and I did not realise there was a deadline. I could maybe do it this week. Note that this is standard Intel 'corporate hardware' so it seems likely that you will get it reported against SLED sometime. Perhaps that's a better way to fix it. -- 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, or are watching someone who is.

https://bugzilla.novell.com/show_bug.cgi?id=247012 ------- Comment #11 from ian.grant@cl.cam.ac.uk 2007-03-07 07:09 MST ------- I have access toa atest machine for a couple of days. It has openSUSE10.2 and an Intel ADD2 card. I can try out anything on it as no-one else is using it. With xorg-x11-driver-video-7.2-88.2.x86_64.rpm xorg-x11-server-7.2-81.1.x86_64.rpm it fails to produce any video display at all and text modes are inaccessible. I don't have the logs to hand but if you want them I can post them. -- 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, or are watching someone who is.

So I loaded the libdrm-2.3.0-1.1 RPM as well and things worked better! Here is the log file from this. The display works, but text modes are not restored and I have found that the server seems to be looping in select(256, [1 11 12], NULL, NULL, {107, 233000}) = ? ERESTARTNOHAND (To be restarted) select(256, [1 11 12], NULL, NULL, {107, 233000}) = ? ERESTARTNOHAND (To be restarted) and the caps lock light doesn't change. The monitor is complaining that the signal is Non Optimum Mode and isn't displaying anything. -- 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, or are watching someone who is.

https://bugzilla.novell.com/show_bug.cgi?id=247012 ------- Comment #19 from ian.grant@cl.cam.ac.uk 2007-03-08 03:31 MST ------- It depends on the text mode. Booting the kernel with vga=normal I can switch to and from the text mode VCs OK, but after switching away from X and going back I just get a blue screen, no kdm greeting. However the server is looking at the keyboard and in a much more interesting-looking loop. The caps lock light work and I can restart it with Ctl-Alt-Backspace. However the kdm display never reappears. Just a blue background. This is probably more information than is useful to you though :-) -- 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, or are watching someone who is.

The only problem is that DRI is not available so people who need the 3d graphics hardware will have to lose their text-mode displays. Let me know if are likely to have more beta code to test. I could hang on to this test box for a few more days, would it worthwhile waiting? The guy I took it from mumbled that it might have some other use at some point. -- 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, or are watching someone who is.
