Thanks Salvatore, and thanks everyone.
Finally I got it solved by follow Salvatore's suggestion. I am using the
bumblebee project.
there are still some other minor problems solved before success running
bumblebee.
The vgl init script doesn't work on xdm. the xauth section should have a
update. the start function of /etc/init.d/vgl was updated. paste here for
anyone may need it.
start() {
ebegin "Starting VirtualGL"
truncate --size=0 /etc/VirtualGL/vgl_xauth_key
# Check if XAUTHORITY was set successfully, if not wait a bit and let X
to start
[ -z "$XAUTHORITY" ] && sleep 3 && set_xauth
[ -e "$XAUTHORITY" ] || sleep 3
for i in `xauth -f $XAUTHORITY list | awk '{print $3}'`; do
xauth -f /etc/VirtualGL/vgl_xauth_key add $DISPLAY . $i && \
chmod 644 /etc/VirtualGL/vgl_xauth_key
done
eend $?
}
and i915(and its modsetting ) is required for my intel onboard card, but we
have to disable all framebuffer driver options before going that.
else the screen will get blank during boot stage.
