[gentoo-user] Problem with the graphic card

[gentoo-user] Problem with the graphic card

[Massimiliano Ziccardi]

[-- Attachment #1: Type: text/plain, Size: 1122 bytes --]

No one answered to my mail so far.... Do you mean I should switch to windows
? ;-)

Please, can someone give me some hint?
Do you need some more information to be able to help me?

I have a ThinkPad lenovo R500 running the latest GENTOO.

Here is what I found so far.

Everything works, but I have 2 problems:
1) OpenGL screen saver do not works
2) Graphic is not very fast.

I think the first problem is related to the second one.

I think (but I'm not sure) that the source of my problem is this:

xxxx@localhost ~ $ glxinfo | grep renderer
OpenGL renderer string: Software Rasterizer

However,

xxxx@localhost ~ $ glxinfo | grep direct
direct rendering: Yes

xxxx@localhost ~ $ dmesg | grep -i agp

[    1.713030] agpgart-intel 0000:00:00.0: AGP aperture is 256M @ 0xd0000000

Can someone give me some hint about what to do/what to check?

Thank you in advance,
Massimiliano

Do you have your system setup for an intel videocard (graphics chip)?

If so, what guide did you follow or what steps/configs have you made?

Can you tell use the hardware you are using (lspci) and contents of
your xorg.conf file and Xorg.0.log file.

If you're worried about 3D performance, run 'eselect opengl list'

To see if you have a hardware accelerated option, and if so 'eselect opengl set <option>' will fix that.

If you want more 2D speed, you'll need to tweak xorg.conf. Read up on options like backingstore, renderaccel, and verfiy that accelmethod is exa instead of xaa (only if its supported). There probably other options that may help as well.

Hi James, Ward, Adam!

Thanks for your help!

To James: Yes, I've an intel card. I followed many guides.
My card is :
        Identifier  "Card0"
        Driver      "intel"
        VendorName  "Intel Corporation"
        BoardName   "Mobile 4 Series Chipset Integrated Graphics Controller"
        BusID       "PCI:0:2:0"

To Ward : attached you'll find Xorg.0.log, xorg.conf and lspci.out

To Adam: I tried 'eselect opengl list', but the only answer has been
 [1] xorg-x11 *

I'm going to try exa.

Thanks a lot,
Massimiliano

Hi. What driver are you using with your graphic cart? Try
x11-drivers/xf86-video-intel-2.1.1, but this driver works bad with
compiz. But you get better performance. 
Intel developers rework their driver and provoke this problems with
performance. Soon there will be all good.

Hi Vasya! Thank for your help!!
xf86-video-intel-2.1.1 is an older version: what do I have to do to switch
to that?
And, after I've switched, how will I switch back to the latest one?

Thank you,
Massimiliano

Well, add to /etc/portage/package.mask
">x11-drivers/xf86-video-intel-2.1.1" and then emerge
x11-drivers/xf86-video-intel. Of course you need to update (downgrade)
your xorg-server to 1.3.0.0-r6 (same operations:mask every version which
later than 1.3.0.0-r6 ">x11-base/xorg-server-1.3.0.0-r6") and don't
forget that you can't using evdev afaik with this xorg but
x11-drivers/xf86-input-keyboard and x11-drivers/xf86-input-mice will
replace it. And configure your xorg.conf

For swithcing back just erase strings that you add to package.mask and
then reemerge packets. Don't forget that xorg-1.5* and 1.3* are
different. Read upgrade guide.

Are you sure that's a good idea? He has an GM45 which was only
released last year. Isn't this driver older than that?

I don't understand which older driver do you mean...
Intel rewrite their driver. And there isn't any good support for linux
by their driver at now. As I know they start rewrite thier driver from
version 2.1.1 or so. Version 2.1.1 not good but with it I have reached
best performance.

Wait until they finish work is a good idea.

That diference definately explains poorer 3D performance in gentoo compared to ubuntu. IIRC GEM is a very new feature in the 2.6.29?? kernel, so at a minimum you'll need to enable it in your kernel, to be able to use that feature. There may be other things you need as well....

You'll probably want to run the very latest version of the intel driver, to try it, add the following to /etc/portage/package.keyword;
x11-drivers/xf86-video-intel ~x86
if you're running 32 bit or
x11-drivers/xf86-video-intel ~amd64
if you're running 64 bit, then emerge it again

Have you read http://en.gentoo-wiki.com/wiki/Intel_GMA? Should be better info in there

Hi Adam.

Thanks for your help.

I read that document a while ago.
It says I need :
1) gentoo-sources 2.6.29 + : I'm ok, my version is 2.6.29-r5
2) xorg-server 1.6+ : here I'm too old. I have 1.5.3-r6. however, emerge
says that 1.5.3-r6 is the latest available....
3) xf86-video-intel 2.6.1+: I have 2.6.3-r1.

Do you think it wold be a good idea to upgrade xorg, even if emerge says
I've the latest available version?

Thank you,
Massimiliano

Your xorg.conf is fine. Take a look at make.conf. Somewhere you should
define a variable VIDEO_CARDS than contains the string "intel". If
not, add it and remerge mesa. Take a look at the HOWTO Adam suggested,
http://en.gentoo-wiki.com/wiki/Intel_GMA It's all explained over
there.

Sorry, I read that document after I sent the e-mail.

However (but maybe I've understood wrong), it says that I have to define
that variable only if I want to use the old xf86-video-i810 name. If I don't
define that, I should use the new name (xf86-video-intel).
Do I get any improvement using the old one (and, is that a good idea?) ?

No, it says you should set that variable regardless of what driver you use.

Re: [gentoo-user] Problem with the graphic card

[Massimiliano Ziccardi]

[-- Attachment #1: Type: text/plain, Size: 1540 bytes --]

Hi Ward. Thank you for your clarification.

Just to be sure I have undestood right.

The document says:

"
Since 22 Oct 2008, Gentoo switched all ebuilds to the upstream naming:
x11-drivers/xf86-video-intel. The ebuild xf86-video-i810 no longer exists.
To switch, set the VIDEO_CARDS variable to intel in your /etc/make.conf. See
VIDEO_CARDS for further instructions.
"

When it says "to switch set the VIDEO_CARDS", I thought it meant "since
Gentoo switched all ebuilds to the upstream naming
x11-drivers/xf86-video-intel, if you want to switch to the old
xf86-video-i810, set the VIDEO_CARDS variable to intel ...."

So, your answer made me a little bit confused about that 'if you want to
switch'.

Maybe they mean 'if you want to switch to the new
x11-drivers/xf86-video-intel'?
But, if "Gentoo switched all ebuilds to the upstream naming:
x11-drivers/xf86-video-intel", isn't that the default one?

Surely I miss something...

Thank you very much,
Massimiliano

It just means that you need to change the VIDEO_CARDS to include
"intel". So, what you need to do is set VIDEO_CARDS to contain the
string "intel". With this variable, gentoo controls which drivers are
being built when you emerge xorg-x11, mesa, etc

Done. After that I did:

killall -1 X

However, performances didn't change much...

xxx@localhost ~ $ glxinfo | grep render

OpenGL renderer string: Software Rasterizer

Other ideas?

I'm following to the letter, now :-)

However, it says I need xorg 1.6, so, now I'm upgrading.

Here is my package.keyword files

I hope it won't break my system :-)

One more thing.
Now, driconf says 'Could not detect any configurable direct-rendering

Before the config changes I did, I never got this message calling driconf

Re: [gentoo-user] Problem with the graphic card

More INFO

Running driconf, I see the following message:

Xlib:  extension "XFree86-DRI" missing on display ":0.0".

However, inside the xorg.0.log, I see:

(II) AIGLX: enabled GLX_MESA_copy_sub_buffer
(II) AIGLX: enabled GLX_SGI_swap_control and GLX_MESA_swap_control
(II) AIGLX: GLX_EXT_texture_from_pixmap backed by buffer objects
(II) AIGLX: Loaded and initialized /usr/lib/dri/i965_dri.so
(II) GLX: Initialized DRI2 GL provider for screen 0

Any help?

Thank you,
Massimiliano

I'm close to the solution.

If I run glxinfo | grep renderer as root, I get

direct rendering: Yes
OpenGL renderer string: Mesa DRI Mobile Intel�� GM45 Express Chipset GEM
20090114


while, if I run the same command as a simple user, I get

direct rendering: Yes
OpenGL renderer string: Software Rasterizer

So I think that's a permission problem now.

Have you any idea?

Thanks a lot,
Massimiliano

Check /dev/video* en /dev/dri*

Try adding,
Section "DRI"
    Mode         0666
EndSection

To your xorg.conf file.
If that doesn't work, take a look into Xorg.0.log.

Finally it works!

I just had to add my user to the 'video' group.

Shouldn't new user be added to such groups by default?

driconf, always says

Xlib:  extension "XFree86-DRI" missing on display ":0.0".


Thank you a lot,

We're Gentoo, not Ubuntu ;-)

You safely ignore that.

This is Gentoo.  Very little is default here.  You either set it
yourself or it doesn't get set.

Thank you all for your beautiful help and your patience (my thread is 33
mails long!!).

This has been one of the best support I have ever got (much better than many
paid support services).

Thank you!

That's the beauty of Gentoo.  If the folks here can't fix it, it wasn't
broke anyway.  LOL  It's a feature.
