Posted: Sun May 08, 2022 3:59 am Post subject: "(EE) no screens found" when running startx

I recently made the choice to join the Gentoo community and try out the operating system my friend talks about all the time. I got a compiled Kernel and every thing but when I'm trying to get a Window Manager I'm always greeted with the fatal error "(EE) no screens found". I have included different outputs I assume are needed.

Xorg.log.0

If anyone can help me with this I'd be super thankful, I've been at it all day

buddy16755,

Welcome to Gentoo

Code:

[ 376.473] (II) modesetting: Driver for Modesetting Kernel Drivers: kms
[ 376.478] (II) [KMS] drm report modesetting isn't supported.
[ 376.478] (EE) open /dev/dri/card0: No such file or directory

You have a bit missing from your kernel.

I think its DRM Support. The ati driver, which you need, needs /dev/dri/card0 to exist.
There is a Radeon Guide on the wiki.
You need the older Radeon driver, not amdgpu.

If that doesn't help, make friends with wgetpaste and share your kernel .config file.

Hi NeedySeagoon, Thanks for responding! When I setup the kernel and everything I followed that exact guide because I was aware of me having a Radeon card. I can share my confit but I’m not 100% how I do that if you can tell me I can share that! Thanks!

... make friends with wgetpaste and share your kernel .config file

Code:

emerge wgetpaste
wgetpaste /usr/src/linux/.config

and post the URL that you get back.

If you followed that guide, check that you are using the kernel you think you are.
The date and time in

Code:

uname -a

is the build date/time of the running kernel.
Is it what you expect or do you have a newer kernel that you should be running?

NeddySeagon,

Here is the URL to my config

buddy16755,

You are very close.

Code:

CONFIG_EXTRA_FIRMWARE="radeon/R600_rlc.bin"

Code:

ls /lib/firmware/radeon/R600*
/lib/firmware/radeon/R600_me.bin /lib/firmware/radeon/R600_rlc.bin
/lib/firmware/radeon/R600_pfp.bin /lib/firmware/radeon/R600_uvd.bin

You need all those files. CONFIG_EXTRA_FIRMWARE is a space separated list.
The list changes (grows) as drivers develop and the Wiki is always out of date.

Your sound won't work as all the codecs are off

Code:

# CONFIG_SND_HDA_CODEC_REALTEK is not set
# CONFIG_SND_HDA_CODEC_ANALOG is not set
# CONFIG_SND_HDA_CODEC_SIGMATEL is not set
# CONFIG_SND_HDA_CODEC_VIA is not set
# CONFIG_SND_HDA_CODEC_HDMI is not set
# CONFIG_SND_HDA_CODEC_CIRRUS is not set
# CONFIG_SND_HDA_CODEC_CS8409 is not set
# CONFIG_SND_HDA_CODEC_CONEXANT is not set
# CONFIG_SND_HDA_CODEC_CA0110 is not set
# CONFIG_SND_HDA_CODEC_CA0132 is not set
# CONFIG_SND_HDA_CODEC_CMEDIA is not set
# CONFIG_SND_HDA_CODEC_SI3054 is not set

snd_hda_intel is correct for the PCI bus end. The codecs are the output end.
Enable them all until you discover which one you need.

That's all that stands out. I suspect that dmesg will tell you about one missing firmware file an sound not working.

Code:

04:00.0 Network controller: Broadcom Inc. and subsidiaries BCM4321 802.11a/b/g/n (rev 05)
Subsystem: Apple Inc. AirPort Extreme

is missing a driver.
It needs

Code:

CONFIG_SSB_B43_PCI_BRIDGE

That depends on CONFIG_SSB_PCIHOST See https://cateee.net/lkddb/web-lkddb/SSB_B43_PCI_BRIDGE.html
I suspect that its inside the

Code:

# CONFIG_SSB is not set

menu, or at least, its hidden by that option being off.
It doubtless needs firmware too.

So when I run

Code:

ls /lib/firmware/radeon/R600*

my output is

Code:

/lib/firmware/radeon/R600_me.bin
/lib/firmware/radeon/R600_pfp.bin
/lib/firmware/radeon/R600_rlc.bin
/lib/firmware/radeon/R600_uvd.bin

Which if I'm understanding you is what it should output when i run that.

As for the network adapter I've been running it in wired mode and was going to fix that once I got done with the graphics problems.

Would the sound not being enabled cause the startx to fail?

Lastly where would i get the driver for, is that in the link you have attached?

Code:

CONFIG_SSB_B43_PCI_BRIDGE

buddy16755, Your kernel needs to have those four files listed in EXTRA_FIRMWARE. Any one missing may be the cause of the missing /dev/dri/card0. That file is required for startx to work. None of the /dev entries are real files, they are the kernel exposing and interface to the outside world. Sound, Wifi and Graphics are all unrelated problems and as you suggest, can be tackled individually. CONFIG_SSB_B43_PCI_BRIDGE is a kernel configuration option. See Configuring the kernel for how to search in menuconfig, Including for hidden options. _________________ Regards, NeddySeagoon Computer users fall into two groups:- those that do backups those that have never had a hard drive fail.

It seems to still not be able to find this directory, when i run

the output is

so the kernel is up to date since the changes were made.

buddy16755,

Code:

CONFIG_FB_RADEON=y
CONFIG_FB_RADEON_I2C=y
CONFIG_FB_RADEON_BACKLIGHT=y

if that was there in the earlier config file I missed it.
Those options must be off.

The only safe framebuffer hardware divers today are:

Code:

# CONFIG_FB_VESA is not set
CONFIG_FB_EFI=y
# CONFIG_FB_SIMPLE is not set

as they do not attempt to take ownership of the hardware. All the others, including CONFIG_FB_RADEON, must be off.
The Direct Render Manager driver will own the hardware but it can't if another driver has already claimed it.
The old hardware specific framebuffer drivers are for turn of the millennium hardware.

I suspect being Apple, CONFIG_FB_EFI is correct for you but adding in the other two is harmless.

If you like the Tux logo on the framebuffer boot console, its inside the

Code:

# CONFIG_LOGO is not set

menu.

Hi NeddySeagoon,

Sorry it took me a few days, I changed the framebuffer settings and messed up the kernel and had to redo the system from scratch. Anyway even after doing the rebuild, following the wiki on radeon and this thread I am still getting the same error as shown.

...

...

That was looking good until firmware loading failed.
As firmware loading happens before root is mounted, the needed firmware must be included in the kernel binary.
Alternatively, configure the Radeon driver as a module.
You may need several firmware files, radeon/RV610_pfp.bin, is the first one that failed to load. The kernel does not check for any further radeon related firmware.
There are two

Code:

$ ls /lib/firmware/radeon/RV61*
/lib/firmware/radeon/RV610_me.bin /lib/firmware/radeon/RV610_pfp.bin

Code:

CONFIG_EXTRA_FIRMWARE="radeon/R600_rlc.bin radeon/R600_uvd.bin radeon/R600_me.bin radeon/R600_pfp.bin"
CONFIG_EXTRA_FIRMWARE_DIR="/lib/firmware"

You may need that firmware but the driver is looking for other files too.

After radeon fails to start, your system continues using

Code:

[ 0.829300] efifb: dmi detected iMac8,1 - framebuffer at 0xc0010000 (1680x1050, stride 6912)

Hi,

So i think we are getting closer!! I'm still getting the error but when checking the dmesg, which I've learned is super helpful!! It shows this:

But I have verified in my kernel through firmware loading i see all of them are there??

Code:

#
# Firmware loader
#
CONFIG_FW_LOADER=y
CONFIG_EXTRA_FIRMWARE="radeon/RV610_pfp.bin radeon/RV610_me.bin radeon/R600_rlc.bin radeon/R600_uvd.bin radeon/R600_pfp.bin radeon/R600_me.bin"
CONFIG_EXTRA_FIRMWARE_DIR="/lib/firmware"
# CONFIG_FW_LOADER_USER_HELPER is not set
# CONFIG_FW_LOADER_COMPRESS is not set
CONFIG_FW_CACHE=y
# end of Firmware loader

I find this a little confusing, I ran

Code:

ls /lib/firmware/radeon/R*

just to verify all of those files are correct, and the output of that is:

Code:

/lib/firmware/radeon/R100_cp.bin
/lib/firmware/radeon/R200_cp.bin
/lib/firmware/radeon/R300_cp.bin
/lib/firmware/radeon/R420_cp.bin

/lib/firmware/radeon/RV670_me.bin
/lib/firmware/radeon/RV670_pfp.bin
/lib/firmware/radeon/RV710_me.bin
/lib/firmware/radeon/RV710_pfp.bin
/lib/firmware/radeon/RV710_smc.bin
/lib/firmware/radeon/RV710_uvd.bin
/lib/firmware/radeon/RV730_me.bin
/lib/firmware/radeon/RV730_pfp.bin
/lib/firmware/radeon/RV730_smc.bin
/lib/firmware/radeon/RV740_smc.bin

/lib/firmware/radeon/RV770_pfp.bin
/lib/firmware/radeon/RV770_smc.bin
/lib/firmware/radeon/RV770_uvd.bin

so the files for sure exist and are being told to load but the kernel seems to error when doing so? Any idea what could be causing it not to properly load?

Here is the Kernel:

OMG I FIGURED IT OUT!!!!

looking closer i noticed

Code:

CONFIG_EXTRA_FIRMWARE="radeon/RV610_pfp.bin radeon/RV610_me.bin radeon/R600_rlc.bin radeon/R600_uvd.bin radeon/R600_pfp.bin radeon/R600_me.bin"

contains 2 files with a "_me.bin" and "_pfp.bin" extension, I removed the ones the kernel doesn't ask for aka

Code:

radeon/R600_pfp.bin radeon/R600_me.bin

i recompiled and launched the system, once done it flashed and rerendered on the frambuffer. I ran

Code:

lspci -k

and read the graphics output and it said

Code:

01:00.0 VGA compatible controller: Advanced Micro Devices, Inc. [AMD/ATI] RV610/M74 [Mobility Radeon HD 2400 XT]
Subsystem: Apple Inc. RV610/M74 [Mobility Radeon HD 2400 XT]
Kernel driver in use: radeon

the amount of serotonin i got seeing the kernel loaded a driver was insane. I ran startx and it actually launched!!! thank you for the help, I'll mark this as solved!

buddy16755, There is nothing like following the method and getting the detail right for yourself. Well done! _________________ Regards, NeddySeagoon Computer users fall into two groups:- those that do backups those that have never had a hard drive fail.

Hi, added /etc/X11/xorg.conf.d/99-vc4.conf contents on the bottom of the Raspberry pi install guide. Problem solved!
