 |
|
| Code: | libGL error: failed to open drm device: Permission denied
libGL error: failed to load driver: nouveau
|
There is no /dev/drm0 or any other /dev/drm*
My kernel config is here https://bpaste.net/show/5e20e5c216a4
| Code: | [ebuild R ] media-libs/mesa-11.0.6::gentoo USE="classic d3d9 dri3 egl gallium gbm gles2 nptl -bindist -debug -gles1 -llvm -opencl -openmax -osmesa -pax_kernel -pic (-selinux) -udev -vaapi -vdpau -wayland -xa -xvmc" ABI_X86="32 (64) (-x32)" VIDEO_CARDS="nouveau (-freedreno) -i915 -i965 -ilo -intel -r100 -r200 -r300 -r600 -radeon -radeonsi -vmware" 0 KiB

What do I need to do to create /dev/drm0 ?

Well, it's trying to open some device and failing due to permissions, not a not-found situation. Where are you seeing the not-found error?
Are you either using consolekit or systemd/logind (which would give permissions automatically), or manually giving yourself permissions to open /dev/dri/* (be in the "video" group) and this is failing?
In a modern udev setup it should show up as /dev/dri/card* I would think. I think the direct rendering guys thought drm has enough bad connotations they used "infrastructure" instead of "manager"...

By googling for the error message, I found posts (ubuntu) that this is caused by missing /dev/drm0

NO

LOL!

Everyone has read/write rights, correct? Should I change the owner/group to root:video? This is mdev, not udev and sometimes I have to patch some devices in /etc/local.d |

You shouldn't make any assumptions, at least you specified the actual error.
It looks like your /dev/dri/* has mode 660 root:root so that means only root group and root itself has permissions to do DRI.
Your mdev seems to be misconfigured. You should either add your regular user to group 'root' (has security implications), chmod 666 /dev/dri/* (has security implications), or make your mdev put /dev/dri/* under group 'video' and add your user to group 'video'.
The best test to see if this really is the problem is if you see these errors as root and try to start DRI?

Thank you, eccerr0r.
I added the last line to /etc/local.d/000.start and now the error messages have disappeared. | Code: | #!/bin/bash
mount devpts
chmod 1777 /dev/shm
#fix bug in mdev from busybox
chown -R root:audio /dev/snd
chown -R root:video /dev/dvr
chown -R root:video /dev/dri |
(After restart of course) |
