 Posted: Mon Sep 15, 2008 1:02 am Post subject: [Soleved] xorg-server 1.5 + Nvidia Driver + KDE 4.1 problem |
 |
|
Hello
Last weekend, I have upgraded (world upgrade) my gentoo that involved upgrade xorg-server to version 1.5 which turned out to be disaster. I am using KDE 4.1 with my Nvidia 8600GTS without any problem until reboot after the upgrade finished. I cannot get into KDE 4.1 with my Nvidia driver. I have tried both version 173.14.12 and also latest beta (177.70) driver but still have the same problem. The problem is I can see KDE default spash screen with all icons appearing then when it get into desktop I can see an error message (very fast, about a few sec) said that Kwin is crashed then it cut back to terminal. I also tried recompile x11-drivers packages e.g. mouse, keyboard and evdev but still couldn't help. Now I have to using NV driver that only work but give me only 2D capacity. I am missing GLX and Plasma
Is there any one have the same issue? please help...

Switching to Xorg 1.5 requires additional steps for evdev, for example. I'd also suggest to run revdep-rebuild to make sure dependencies are Ok. Have you also recompiled all your xf86 drivers?
Next simplify your xorg.conf. If X starts as expected with such a Screen section, then you can go on adding directives that are enough to start KDE (i.e. compositing aso). Only add what's strictly necessary.
| xorg.conf: | Section "Screen"
Identifier "Screen"
Device "video1"
Monitor "mornitor1"
EndSection |
Normally modelines are uneeded with nvidia proprietary drivers as it automatically tries to find the native resolution for your card. (Backup your old xorg.conf, of course.)
Finally does a simple xsession load normally or does it crash too?

.....NO... it not working... Actually it was work(some part) after remove Option "backingstore" from xorg.xconf.. It can start with Nvidia driver but it ended up with 2D without GLX working at all. Also, when it get into desktop it reported that "Kwin is unstable it seems to crashed several time" and tell me to choosee meacity instead of Kwin and KDE crash handler pop up with message A Fatal Error Occurred The application KWin (kwin) crashed and caused the signal 11 (SIGSEGV). Then I found out that GLX is not working either
| Code: | glxinfo
name of display: :0.0
Segmentation fault
|
I have tried update and recompile all packages related to xorg, mesa and KDE but it not help. mesa still broken (all compile get through without any problem). I have tried both mesa 7.1 and 7.2_rc1 but still got the same result. I also tried revdep-rebuild but it found no problem at all.
Any one have any idea? |

Are you running x86 or x86_64? ARCH or ~ARCH?

I am running x86 32bits. I am not using emerge but using paludis (I don't think it is something to do with paludis). The thing that worry me is my box cannot using openGL even nvidia driver and X server compile and load without any problem (the log shows that nvidia GLX has been loaded ). That might be the reason that it fail to run Kwin. I'll test it further with plain NV driver and will lets you know

I was also wondering if you were using the stable or unstable branch in fact. BTW I suppose you've run eselect opengl set nvidia, have you?

Yes. I have select opengl to use Nvidia's library. And I have been using both sable and unstable branch without any problem. I just test mesa latest version(v7.2_rc1) in portage for compare with v7.1 but they both didn't work.
More info:
I have tried to boot with "nv" driver sucessfuly (no problem with Kwin). So, I think the problem is about openGL, KDE and Nvidia driver. Then I tried to run glxinfo and glxgears

Right.... finally, I figured out what he problem it is?... As I mention above, it is about Nvidia driver and my Linux kernel that has been modified for Hypervisor or hardware emulator for using KVM. I have no idea before that Nvidia driver cannot work with this feature enable. Also, I have compile Nvidia driver latest beta driver by using Nvidia script rather than normal process from portage script. Therefore, the libraries had been mixed up in the /usr/lib with the old version. Anyways, thank you for you all for comment and help..

I'm sorry it didn't strike me at once  . I'm regularly reading Phoronix articles and I now remember there is a problem with binary drivers like nVidia and recent versions of Xorg. Xorg introduced a couple of ABI changes with direct rendering, IIRC. nVidia had to adapt their driver and this is probably what you experienced. If you downgrade to xorg-server-1.3 and the latest mesa-6*, you'll recover 3D.
