Heho,
I have just pushed initial RandR 1.2 support into the branch 'initial-randr' in the git repository. It's no way sure it will stay this way (might be completely rewritten), but at the moment everything looks good.
With the fixes to randr/rrcrtc.c and xrandr.c I just published on the xorg mailing list this implementation gets through the xrandr testcase I also published there today just fine.
Still, I would like to have it tested before we even think about moving this into the master branch, so if you want to try (assuming git 1.5 or higher, and *hopefully* correct...):
git-fetch origin initial-randr:initial-randr git-checkout origin/initial-randr ... configure & compile
If you want to work on the branch yourself, better do a git-checkout -b initial-randr origin/initial-randr
And then please tell me what is working what isn't.
I tried and I just get black screen, and I never get output again. I have to reboot.
Grmbl. Doesn't sound good. Please try:
- Set Option "NoRandr" temporary in the device section, just to verify that the driver + Xserver in *principle* works. This doesn't change anything to the driver in master.
I tried that, and it didn't work.
- Try to run Xorg -logverbose 7 and check whether you get some reasonable logfile. Post it. What card do you have?
I'm attaching the logs with dvi, vga, nothing connected and with the "NoRandr" option.
- Check whether you can still log into the machine remotely when it is dead. Check whether the Xserver is running (just no image) or not. If it is running, also post the output of 'xrandr'.
I can't try that right now but I think it is running. Best regards. -- Felipe Contreras
