[gentoo-user] Modular Xorg 7 won't start with nVidia GeForce4 440 Go

[Daevid Vincent]

I went to do an 'emerge -Davu world' yesterday, and it forced me to upgrade
to modular xorg7. I followed the directions here, But now X doesn't start.

Xorg is not able to detect your mouse.
Edit the file and correct the Device.

Your xorg.conf file is /root/xorg.conf.new

To test the server, run 'X -config /root/xorg.conf.new'

I tried to re-emerge the drivers:

media-video/nvidia-glx-1.0.6629-r7 [1.0.8178-r1] 0 kB 

And when those didn't work, I tried the newer drivers:
media-video/nvidia-kernel-1.0.8178-r3  0 kB 
media-video/nvidia-glx-1.0.8178-r1  USE="-dlloader" 0 kB 

On a semi-related issue, I thought I heard some rumblings
that the new drivers won't support my older 
NV17 [GeForce4 440 Go] card? 
Is that true? Is nVidia abandoning me?

Should I just revert back to the older Xorg? Is this not ready for
prime-time use? I realize it's ~x86 masked, but I run many packages that
are. In fact my KDE/GNOME/and Xorg previously were as well. If so, what do I
need to put in my /etc/portage/package.* files to prevent it from trying to
upgrade me to 7 ?

This will usually cause a fatal server error.  I suggesting editing
xorg.conf and pointing the mouse a /dev/input/mice.

If that doesn't help, the contents of /var/log/Xorg.0.log would be the
most useful thing for us to see.

That error is bogus as that had to do with the "Xorg -configure" version. 

If you notice, the real 'startx' uses my regular /etc/X11/xorg.conf file
that worked fine with Xorg 6.8 and has no such mouse error.

Not sure what is going here.  The backtrace starts from some font
handling functions, but I don't see anything significant in your log
that points to a font issue.  And the backtrace itself doesn't seem to
make any sense.

On my system (using modular X with the nvidia 8178 driver), an strace
of the X server shows that the input devices are initialized almost
immediately after the GLX initialization completes:

13611 write(0, "(II) Initializing extension GLX\n", 32) = 32
13611 open("/usr/lib/xserver/SecurityPolicy", O_RDONLY) = 11
13611 fstat64(11, {st_mode=S_IFREG|0644, st_size=2925, ...}) = 0
13611 mmap2(NULL, 4096, PROT_READ|PROT_WRITE,
MAP_PRIVATE|MAP_ANONYMOUS, -1, 0) = 0xb6651000
13611 read(11, "version-1 \n\n# $Xorg: SecurityPol"..., 4096) = 2925
13611 read(11, "", 4096)                = 0
13611 close(11)                         = 0
13611 munmap(0xb6651000, 4096)          = 0
13611 time(NULL)                        = 1143686197
13611 write(0, "(II) Synaptics touchpad driver v"..., 53) = 53
13611 write(0, "(**) Option \"Device\"", 20) = 20
13611 write(0, " \"/dev/input/event1\"", 20) = 20

This leads me again to think that there is a problem with the input devices.

Have you tried doing a revdep-rebuild?  Have you verified your
'eselect opengl' settings?  What use flags did you build with (emerge
-pv xorg-x11 xorg-server)

Richard, I want to thank you for your trying to help me on this first of
all...

Yes. There is nothing that needs rebuilding.

As per your advice, I tried the /root/xorg.conf.new file and edited to be
/dev/input/mice but I get the same errors.

It's strange as the screen goes blank like it wants to start, but instead of
seeing the KDE loading screen like I normally would, it just bails out to
the console again with those backtrace and signal 11 error.

Daevid,

What is your touchpad driver?

-synaptics

That USE flag is little strange for laptop. As I know, so many laptop
has touchpad that drive whit synaptics driver.

Hope to find problem

RE: [gentoo-user] Modular Xorg 7 won't start with nVidia GeForce4 440 Go

[Daevid Vincent]

I still cannot get X to start with the nvidia drivers. However, I did take
(someones?) suggestion and tried both the "vesa" and "nv" drivers and they
both "work". I say "work" because with 'vesa', I get a HUGE (i.e. low rez)
screen = unuseable. And with the 'nv' I get the right resolution 1600x1200,
but I get horrible frame-rates (glxgears).

I tried to turn off the RenderAccel option with 'nvidia' but no joy.

RE: [gentoo-user] Modular Xorg 7 won't start with nVidia GeForce4 440 Go

[Daevid Vincent]

I'm getting closer to narrowing this down.

One of the problems is that "/sbin/NVmakedevices.sh" has been yanked from me
in some nvidia ebuild update. Grr. 

Do this instead:
-----------------------------------------------------------------
# /etc/conf.d/local.start

# This is a good place to load any misc programs
# on startup ( use 1>&2 to hide output)

# added by DV as per some email discussion on the nVidia drivers and UDEV

  for i in 0 1 2 3 4 5 6 7; do
    node="/dev/nvidia$i"
    rm -f $node
    mknod $node c 195 $i  || echo "mknod \"$node\""
    chmod 0660 $node      || echo "chmod \"$node\""
    chown :video $node    || echo "chown \"$node\""
  done
           
  node="/dev/nvidiactl"
  rm -f $node
  mknod $node c 195 255   || echo "mknod \"$node\""
  chmod 0666 $node        || echo "chmod \"$node\""
  chown :video $node      || echo "chown \"$node\""
-----------------------------------------------------------------

The module still loaded which was throwing me off. I would have expected it
not to.

So what is causing X7 to crash is when I set:

"eselect opengl set nvidia"

X won't even start (see previous emails for the errors). It wants to. The
screen goes blank and the resolution "blinks" and then crash.

But if I set:

"eselect opengl set xorg-x11"

Then X7 starts, but glxgears appears to barely move, yet it claims ~230fps
?!!?

All of this worked just fine in X6.8.

I'm using the latest 8756 version of the nvidia driver.

Try this - 

	emerge -C nvidia-kernel nvidia-glx
	emerge -av =nvidia-kernel-1.0.8178-r3 =nvidia-glx-1.0.8178-r1

Set the /etc/X11/xorg.conf driver def to nvidia and re-try starting X.

This should not be needed.  The X server (actually, the nvidia module
loaded in the X server) should create these automatically if they do
not exist.  From an strace of X on my system after removing the
nvidiactl and nvidia0 device nodes:

2262  stat64("/dev/nvidiactl", 0xbffcea38) = -1 ENOENT (No such file
or directory)
2262  stat64("/dev/nvidiactl", 0xbffcea38) = -1 ENOENT (No such file
or directory)
2262  mknod("/dev/nvidiactl", S_IFCHR|0666, makedev(195, 255)) = 0
2262  chmod("/dev/nvidiactl", 0666)     = 0
2262  chown32("/dev/nvidiactl", 0, 0)   = 0
2262  open("/dev/nvidiactl", O_RDWR)    = 7
2262  stat64("/dev/nvidia0", 0xbffce9a8) = -1 ENOENT (No such file or directory)
2262  stat64("/dev/nvidia0", 0xbffce9a8) = -1 ENOENT (No such file or directory)
2262  mknod("/dev/nvidia0", S_IFCHR|0666, makedev(195, 0)) = 0
2262  chmod("/dev/nvidia0", 0666)       = 0
2262  chown32("/dev/nvidia0", 0, 0)     = 0
2262  open("/dev/nvidia0", O_RDWR)      = 8

If you comment out the line:

Load "glx"

in xorg.conf, do you still get the crash?

How are you starting the X server?  Does it still crash if you run just "X :0"?

FYI, if you read Daevid's original posting from Mar 29th, these are
the versions where he first encountered this probelm.

If you have some ideas of why this happens, we are certainly
interested, but please check the archives.

Has this already been suggested?

Take the most recent version of nvidia-kernel and nvidia-glx (~x86) and
take a look at /etc/modules.d/nvidia. There something about a
module-option for notebook systems.

Okay. I removed them. Thanks.

No. X starts now. But "glxgears" segfaults.

I type "startx".

X :0 just gives me (as you probably already know) a "checker-board" backdrop
and a cursor. Can't do anything else with it.

Tried various ways with and without this option enabled.
However, it says that's to solve "hard lock ups". I don't have that problem.
X starts, then just dies (if I have the wrong combination of eselect/glx).
It's definitely related to OpenGL now...

Tried rebooting after a few different option/tweaks just to be sure too.

So it is definitely opengl related.

What DE do you normally run?  KDE, Gnome, ?  It seems to me that one
the programs being started as part of the DE is trying to use opengl,
and causing a crash.

Have you tried playing with the RenderAccel, NoRenderExtension,
NoFlip, and AllowGLXWithComposite options?  The safest settings for
these should be:

Option "RenderAccel" "Off"
Option "NoRenderExtension" "On"
Option "NoFlip" "On"
Option "AllowGLXWithComposite" "Off"

Maybe an idiot question... Have you tried the drivers directly from
NVidia, unmerging the nvida-kernel and nvidia-glx drivers and just
downloading and running the NVidia Installer? I just say that because
I once had problems with the portage versions, tried the installer and
it worked. In another computer I had no problems, but after putting
the NVidia installed driver it gained 20% performance...

RE: [gentoo-user] Modular Xorg 7 won't start with nVidia GeForce4 440 Go [SOLVED]

[Daevid Vincent]

I finally got this working it seems. 

These links were very helpful:

http://bugs.gentoo.org/show_bug.cgi?id=90047

ntoo
http://www.nvnews.net/vbulletin/search.php?searchid=464072

I can't recall the exact thing that solved it, but I suspect it was the
nvidia/tls thing in the first post. I un/merged, un/masked, rm -rf  so many
things I can't remember anymore. But at the end of the day, I do have the
latest nvidia drivers working in OpenGL glory on my Dell i8200 notebook
GeForce 440 card.

Glxgears gives me:
7630 frames in 5 seconds = 1526 FPS +/-

Now if only I could figure out a way to get the video card to not share an
IRQ with SEVEN other things including my eth0, wlan and usb amongst other
things -- then it wouldn't studder. *sigh*.
