I have kept installing gentoo amd64 on laptop with intel 945GM chipset for 2 weeks. However, I still can't startx.

I have build i810 and i915 as graphic and character device into kernel.

Here is the error log:

intel 945 chipset is popular, it seems that many users have met the same problem. but I can't find any solution on an amd64 laptop after searching from internet (this forum included).

Thank you, mixtix.

This problem has been solved by back the video driver to a stable version. Hope this information be helpful to who has the same problem.

To avoid update driver to an unstable version, don't forget to add the stable version to /etc/portage/package.mask.

Add me to the "me too" list, except this is on a 32bit install with the 965 pci express chipset.

X does work for me, but when starting an x session, the screen goes on - off - on -off -on. It's rather annoying. I don't receive the xinit error either.

The following only shows up on the screen after I do "X -config /etc/X11/xorg.conf
Code:
expected keysym, got XF86KbdLightOnOff: line 70 of pc

There are NO errors in my Xorg logs.
It would be nice to track this baby down.

the vblank errors are fixed with a newer version of the intel driver (~) but the new driver also broke my aiglx. i'm using 915. the keyboard errors should be a simple fix, but i haven't found it yet. obviously, my numlock key does not work in X.

I tried xf86-video-i810-2.2.0-r1 and the vblank errors disappeared as well, but not the keysym errors. It seems the keysym errors are what is causing my screen to go on-off-on-off-on.

The brightness buttons on the keyboard already work! - "Fn+>" increases brightness and "Fn+<" decreases brightness. There are no "special" keys on the laptop for the screen besides the Fn key combinations.

xmodmap can be used to assign keycodes to X, but how does one go about figuring out what is needed? I've already picked up some codes from the forums for my laptop volume buttons using xmodmap.

I'm getting the same errors, but my symptoms may be different. I use fvwm. It starts up but doesn't recognize my usual key combinations. I get some kind of default config with minimal functionality.

This is ~amd64. It was working fine until I rebooted; no doubt the previous X update either munged something or expects some difference in some config file. I just resynced and emerged the latest X changes; no change.

I am posting this from a different computer since a useful X is not forthcoming on the troubled machine. xorg-x11 is version 7.3.0, xorg-server is version 1.4.0.90.

I update the bios, no help :(

I guess it's just a matter of time before all the bugs are worked out of the xorg drivers for this chip.

What annoys me is that mine was working until the reboot. Presumably something in the last upgrade batch fubared, and now it's just a matter of waiting for some other fix to make it work again. I tried a few downgrades, but they quickly got into wanting USE flags changed for compatibility and causing other downgrades, so I brought it back to current up to date and will just have to wait.

Same problem here with my MacBook (Intel 945GM) using xf86-video-i810-2.1.1 on amd64 (stable keyword), plus:
Code:

(EE) intel (0): I830 Vblank Pipe Setup Failed 0
(EE) intel (0): I830 Vblank Pipe Setup Failed 0
(EE) intel (0): I830 Vblank Pipe Setup Failed 0

when logging out of X. Sometimes leading to a full system crash (systems reboots without going through the shutdown sequence...). It seems that using a lower framebuffer res. makes the system more reliable.

Downgrading to xf86-video-i810-1.7.4 + 915resolution seems to have fixed the problem.
