Posted: Mon Jun 22, 2009 3:41 pm Post subject: [solved]Problem with xorg and nvidia-driver

Hello,
I`ve got a problem with xorg, and nvidia drivers.
I`m install x server from Handbook
Everything worked to time when I use:

Code:

Xorg -configure

It fail...
Then I use:

Code:

xorgcfg -textmode

but after that, when i use

Code:

X -config /root/xorg.conf.new

appeared the gray screen with the mouse cursor in the middle, but mouse and keyboard doesn`t respond.
I must hard reset my pc.

After that i tryed to modify Xorg.conf, but without effect.

I think installing nvidia driver will work, and i installed official driver form nvidia.com

Code:

sh NVIDIA-Linux-x86-96.43.11-pkg1

for the first time i`ve got problem with my kernel config (i must turn off nvidiafb or something like that).
After recompiling the kernel drivers are installed without any problems, but when I use

Code:

startx

I see screen with some windows, but mouse and keyboard doesn`t respond too. After reset when I use "startx", I see black screen and pc doesn't respond.
After reset I take my xorg.conf from my slackware, and after reset when i use "startx" the situation was the same.
My actual xorg.cof (coppying from slackware)

Code:

There are various issues with your setup. You need to use evdev to take care of your input devices (emerge evdev and add it to your make.conf like:INPUT_DEVICES="evdev" and enable evdev in your kernel) and you need hal and hald running. You also need to remove the input section for mouse and keybord in your xorg.conf because hal in combination with evdev does it automatically since xorg 1.5. Here are some helpful links that should get you started Xorg 1.5 Upgrade Guide Best upgrade method to Xserver1.5 with Hal and evdev

Xorg 1.5 Upgrade Guide

Best upgrade method to Xserver1.5 with Hal and evdev

This is all correct, and I agree that it is the correct course to take. Input handling changed rather radically with 1.5 and you are not alone with this issue.
I feel I should tell you however that if you compile the X server without the hal flag, I think it will revert to the old behaviour, and your xorg.conf file will be valid again. (Again, not the recommended course of action)

I enable evdev in mykernel:

Code:

Device Drivers --->

Input device support --->

--- Input device support
[*] Event interface

after that i add it to make.conf

Code:

INPUT_DEVICES="evdev keyboard mouse"

and I want to install evdev

Code:

emerge evdev

it says

Code:

emergr: there are no ebuilds to satisy "evdev"

and the same with emerge hal

Code:

emergr: there are no ebuilds to satisy "virtual/eject"
(dependency requied by "sys-apps/hal-0.5.11-r9" [ebuild])
(dependency requied by "hal" [argument])

I try:

Code:

# emerge --update --deep --newuse world
# emerge --depclean
# revdep-rebuild
# emerge --sync

Next time try "emerge --search evdev"

EDITED

I recommend you uninstall the nvidia drivers and add VIDEO_CARDS="nvidia" to you make.conf

Then, run "emerge --deep --update --newuse world"

And you can use this xorg.conf

Code:

Section "Files"
EndSection

Section "Module"
Load "dbe"
Load "extmod"
Load "type1"
Load "freetype"
Load "glx"
EndSection

Section "Monitor"
Identifier "Monitor0"
VendorName "Unknown"
ModelName "Unknown"
HorizSync 30.0 - 85.0
VertRefresh 50.0 - 160.0
Option "DPMS"
EndSection

Section "Device"
Identifier "Device0"
Driver "nvidia"
VendorName "NVIDIA Corporation"
EndSection

Section "Screen"
Identifier "Screen0"
Device "Device0"
Monitor "Monitor0"
DefaultDepth 24
SubSection "Display"
Depth 24
EndSubSection
EndSection

If you want the latest nvidia drivers, you can add the following lines to /etc/portage/package.keywords

Code:

x11-drivers/nvidia-drivers
media-video/nvidia-settings

Or simply emerge eix and use

Code:

eix evdev

Edit: But remmember to use eix-sync instead of emerge --sync so the data is up to date.

I see small progress with my drivers, now every time when I use startx i see nvidia logo and after taht I see something like screen of puplit, but still I can not use mouse and keyboard.

I write step by stem what I do.

Code:

emerge eix
update-eix
eix evdev

emerge -av x11-drivers/xf86-input-evdev sys-apps/hal

emerge want some dependences (i dont remeber it), but i`ll install it with the required USe flags, after that:

Code:

emerge -av x11-drivers/xf86-input-evdev sys-apps/hal

everything looks good.

After taht I install nvidia drivers

Code:

sh NVIDIA-Linux-x86-96.43.11-pkg1

When I start system witk xorg.conf generated by nvidia installer after use startx, then i use my old xorg.conf it will be good i see screen of pulpit (but keyboard, and mouse doesn`t work too), when i use xorg.conf from user: peratu the situation was the same.

I want to check my files:

Code:

/etc/hal/fdi/policy/10-x11-input.fdi
/etc/hal/fdi/policy/11-x11-synaptics.fdi

but i don`t have them.

You need this in you /etc/make.conf

Code:

USE="hal" (and your other use flags)
VIDEO_CARDS="nvidia"
INPUT_DEVICES="evdev keyboard mouse"

Then, uninstall the nvidia drivers. First, unload the nvidia module.

Code:

rmmod nvidia
sh nvidia-installer.pkg --uninstall

Then, install xf86-input-evdev

Code:

emerge xf86-input-evdev

And finally run this:

Code:

emerge --deep --update --newuse world

This will recompile your xorg with hal support. Will install nvidia-drivers, keyboard and mouse drivers.

Install this package for synaptics:

Code:

emerge synaptics

Then, use my xorg.conf file

And then, start the X server.

NOTE: sh nvidia-installer.pkg --uninstall will not work. It's only an example. You must run this:

Code:

sh NVIDIA-Linux-x86-96.43.11-pkg1 --uninstall

Well, cotinue...

The problem is: sed: command not found

You don't have sed? This is very strange because is a basic system tool.

Ok, first, try:

Code:

emerge app-portage/gentoolkit
revdep-rebuild

And then, retry with:

Code:

emerge --deep --update --newuse world

If it not works, try this:

Code:

emerge sys-apps/sed

And then, retry:

Code:

emerge --deep --update --newuse world

Uhm..., it's very strange. You really don't have sed?

What is the result when you type "which sed" in a terminal?

The result must be this:

Code:

peratu@fujitsu ~ $ which sed
/bin/sed

If you don't have sed, you can follow this steps.

1º - Download the latest stage3 tarball and put it into / directory.
2º - Run this commands:

Code:

tar -x bin/sed -vjpf stage3.tar.bz2
tar -x usr/share/doc/sed-4.1.5-r1/ -vjpf stage3.tar.bz2
tar -x usr/share/info/sed.info-1.bz2 -vjpf stage3.tar.bz2
tar -x usr/share/info/sed.info-2.bz2 -vjpf stage3.tar.bz2
tar -x usr/share/info/sed.info.bz2 -vjpf stage3.tar.bz2
tar -x usr/share/locale/<your language>/LC_MESSAGES/sed.mo -vjpf stage3.tar.bz2
tar -x usr/share/man/man1/sed.1.bz2 -vjpf stage3.tar.bz2
tar -x var/db/pkg/sys-apps/sed-4.1.5-r1/ -vjpf stage3.tar.bz2

Now, you have sed installed and should be able to remerge sed and the rest of things you need:

Code:

emerge sed
emerge --deep --update --newuse world

I tryed what you talk:

Code:

wchich sed

Code:

which: no sed in (/usr/local/sbin:/usr/local/bin:/usr/sbin:/usr/bin:/sbin:/bin:/opt/bin:/usr/i486-pc-linux-gnu/gcc-bin/4.1.2:/usr/i686-pc-linux-gnu/gcc/bin/4.1.2)

I downloaded:

Code:

stage3-i686-2008.0.tar.bz2

and i copy it to: /boot, and when I try:

Code:

tar -x bin/sed -vjpf stage3.tar.bz2

Ok, you don't have sed.

Wrong!!! You have to put the tarball into / directory, not /boot

Code:

mv stage3-i686-2008.0.tar.bz2 /

Then, type cd / and you will be in the / directory. Now, run this commands:

Code:

tar -x var/db/pkg/sys-apps/sed-4.1.5/ -vjpf stage3-i686-2008.0.tar.bz2
tar -x usr/share/man/man1p/sed.1p.bz2 -vjpf stage3-i686-2008.0.tar.bz2

Ok, don't worry. We can try another thing.

First, as root, make a directory and move the stage3 tarball to it.

Code:

mkdir /test/
mv stage3-i686-2008.0.tar.bz2 /test/

Now, move into this directory and extract the tarball

Code:

cd /test/
tar xvjpf stage3-i686-2008.0.tar.bz2

Now, make this commands:

Code:

cp -Rp /test/var/db/pkg/sys-apps/sed-4.1.5/ /
cp -p /test/usr/share/man/man1p/sed.1p.bz2 /
cp -p /test/usr/share/man/man1/sed.1.bz2 /
cp -p /test/usr/share/locale/<your language>/LC_MESSAGES/sed.mo /
cp -p /test/usr/share/locale/<your language>_<YOUR LANGUAGE>/LC_MESSAGES/sed.mo /
cp -p /test/usr/share/info/sed.info.bz2 /
cp -p /test/usr/share/info/sed.info-1.bz2 /
cp -p /test/usr/share/info/sed.info-2.bz2 /
cp -Rp /test/usr/share/doc/sed-4.1.5/ /
cp -p /test/bin/sed /

may ask why you keep assuming it's sed-4.1.5 in that stage3 ? Could be a different version.
Try

Code:

ls -d /var/db/pkg/sys-apps/sed*
ls -d /test/var/db/pkg/sys-apps/sed* (if you wish try the latest suggestion peratu gave you)

Because I have downloaded the same stage3 tarball to check it :-)

And you can see the stage3 content here: ftp://gentoo.arcticnetwork.ca/pub/gentoo/releases/x86/2008.0/stages/stage3-i686-2008.0.tar.bz2.CONTENTS

The sed version is 4.1.5

Good. Now, try those commands to install sed and if you don't have any problem, continue with emerge sed and emerge --deep --update --newuse world

Wow, you don't have find too?????

Seems your system is broken, my friend.

If I were you, I would download the latest stage3 tarball.

Code:

cd /
wget http://mirror.usu.edu/mirrors/gentoo/releases/x86/current/stage3-i686-20090623.tar.bz2

Then, I would untar the whole tarball

Code:

tar xvjpf stage3-i686-20090623.tar.bz2

And then, I would run

Code:

emerge --sync && emerge --deep --update --newuse world
