I'm running on a 32 bit system, with a N2800 Intel atom, with the infamous GMA3600 series video card (Cedar Trail). If the 'cedar' above refers to Cedar Trail it might be it. Intel has failed to provide an apropriate driver for Linux. After exactly the same update I have experienced the same issue, before that the gma500 module provided a basic functionality, not i915. I suspect the xf86-video-intel update might be related, but I don't know, it can be a different thing. -- 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.

At least not that I'm aware of. I just run the openSUSE installer and after installation, the video is there.
But this does not explain, why it ever worked before. Unless before the update fbdev X driver was configured manually. But why? And why did this change during the update?
Fortunately both src.rpms (2.19 and 2.20) are available at: http://download.opensuse.org/update/12.2/src/ I made a diff between, you can find it attached. It is not just a small patch, but a rather big file (over 30.000 lines!). The change notes starts with: Release 2.12.0 (2012-07-15) =========================== First the big news, a new acceleration method that aims to be faster and consume far less CPU than UXA is now available for selection at runtime. This snazzy new architecture can be selected through use of Option "AccelMethod" "sna" in your xorg.conf. Whilst it has been under development for some time, it has not yet had the same degree of widespread testing of UXA, so tread lightly. Try it and if you spot anything that can be improved, please do report a bug. <<<< >>>>> Thus it is not a trivial update, but introduces a new feature. ps: the version number is first line is wrong. It states 2.12.0, it should be 2.20.0 -- 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.

IDs stolen from Kernel psb driver. (bnc#772279) * obsoletes xorg-detect-psb.patch After the installation I rebooted the system, and it kept on working. I verified the Xorg.0.log and the intel driver is no longer called. After this I looked for the updated xf86-video-intel, but that is no longer present (did you remove it from the repository?). At this point I decided to remove the xf86-video-intel rpm, and rebooted the system. System booting fine, X is working. Looks like a fine patch has been applied. I'm impressed by the speed, by which this problem has been tackled, solved.

No, it's still there and an update to 2.20.1 is planned. Thanks for confirmation, that the patch fixes the issue. -- 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.

I'll try the package from the XOrg repo too. The reason why I couldn't have Internet is not related to the bug, I'm not at home these days. Just in case, this is the output to hwinfo --gfxcard, I reinstalled openSUSE. 09: PCI 02.0: 0300 VGA compatible controller (VGA) [Created at pci.319] Unique ID: _Znp.RnKWEMhAUhB SysFS ID: /devices/pci0000:00/0000:00:02.0 SysFS BusID: 0000:00:02.0 Hardware Class: graphics card Model: "Intel VGA compatible controller" Vendor: pci 0x8086 "Intel Corporation" Device: pci 0x0be2 SubVendor: pci 0x1043 "ASUSTeK Computer Inc."

So it's the same GPU Richard is using (GMA 3600/CDV). -- 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 makes not much sense. intel is definitely the wrong X driver for this GPU.
Looks like they fixed that issue in the intel X driver (release 2.20.5). commit ae6b3c7508d570af94f172d6a91d62d2987d654b Author: Chris Wilson <chris@chris-wilson.co.uk> Date: Mon Aug 20 17:03:16 2012 +0100 Check that the module that indeed i915 before using custom ioctls Thanks to Adam Jackson for pointing me towards drmGetVersion() and Julien Cristau for saying "Yuck!" commit b5b76ad849bfda1e75192d1cb3c6c0fcc623bb91 Author: Chris Wilson <chris@chris-wilson.co.uk> Date: Mon Aug 20 12:01:39 2012 +0100 Sanity check that the driver is an i915.ko GEM device before claiming it This fixes an issue with us claiming Poulsbo and friends even though we do not speak their language. -- 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.
