 Posted: Fri Nov 20, 2009 10:26 pm Post subject: Major issues with Xorg, don't know where to begin |
 |
|
Hi everyone!
Just as a quick background check, I'm fairly new to Gentoo. I finally got around to installing X-org and a window manager and I somehow blew everything up while installing them. The first mistake I did was that I installed Xfce and set that up according from within a chrooted enviroment. After that, I installed X-org and attempted to set that up from within the same environment, along with the proprietary ati drivers as I'm using an ATI 4890. Anyway, X-org installed fine, as did the ati drivers, but something went wrong or I did something wrong. I can't configure X-org by using any of the commands on the guide/wiki, and I can't configure the ati driver. When I attempted to configure X-org in a terminal setting, it would say:
"Caught Signal 11 server aborting"
HOWEVER, Xfce is working fine. All I had to do was follow the guide and upon running "startx" it fired up. I'm typing this from it. I don't see how Xfce could work without a X-org configuration in place. I checked the folder- it doesn't exist! GL Gears doesn't work either.
What could I have done? I'm very confused as to what to do, how I have a GUI without a working X-org config, etc. If anyone can offer any advice I would appreciate it! |

I dont know if i underestand you right but...
You must install xorg server
emerge xorg-server
then install ati drivers
then run:
Xorg -configure
this should generate /etc/X11/xorg.conf file. There should be "section Device" and there driver option. There should be ati drivers.
This is all (if X is enough for you). |

I could be completely wrong on this but I think (part of) the problem is that you installed from a chrooted environment. Namely, with your drivers. You need to build the drivers against the kernel you will be using on the newly installed system. I'm *halfway* certain that building from within a chrooted environment builds the drivers against the RUNNING (host) kernel unless you tell it otherwise. Even if I'm wrong about the build, I know I had problems trying to install a module from a chrooted environment. It was trying to install in the host directories even when chrooted.
Again, I could be wrong, but it's something to consider |

I'm slightly confused by what you are trying to achieve here...
Xfce will be using xorg - and you are saying that it is working, right? So what is the problem? Are you unable to leave the chroot and boot your environment, including loading Xfce? Or are you trying to run another desktop environment and can't get that to work? When you say GLGears doesn't work either, do you mean it doesn't load/run, doesn't even exist, or it has very low frame rates? You might want to post the output of /var/log/Xorg.0.log. Can you also post the output of: | Code: | | glxinfo | grep rendering; eselect opengl list |
jbarnes8: the gentoo compile process will normally build against the symlinked kernel found at /usr/src/linux, so being in the chrooted environment shouldn't be an issue.

Does | Code: | | emerge --search mesa |
show mesa and mesa-progs installed? Unless they are; no glxinfo no glxgears. |

Hey guys,
Thanks for the responses. I have Xfce running now, but I have a driver issue. I can't get it to work properly. Here's the output for the above:
glxinfo | grep rendering; eselect opengl list
X Error of failed request: BadRequest (invalid request code or no such operation)
Major opcode of failed request: 154 (GLX)
Minor opcode of failed request: 19 (X_GLXQueryServerString)
Serial number of failed request: 14
Current serial number in output stream: 14
Available OpenGL implementations:
[1] ati *
[2] xorg-x11
And
emerge --search mesa
Says that they are installed. However, whenever I run something like glxgears I get:
glxgears
X Error of failed request: BadRequest (invalid request code or no such operation)
Major opcode of failed request: 154 (GLX)
Minor opcode of failed request: 19 (X_GLXQueryServerString)
Serial number of failed request: 14
Current serial number in output stream: 14
What should I do? It seems that the ATI driver is not working properly. Should I try and re-emerge? Thanks! |

update your system:
| Code: | emerge --sync
emerge -uND world |
report any problems.
post results; xfce is probably running x using vesa or radeon driver; this will tell us
open xcb upgrade guide and follow it; use careful reading -- some steps are not in code listings; one step is several lines long and needs to be pasted in as a block or typed in with great care for spacing and back slashes
more to follow after you report back
BTW xorg-server has been designed to run without a xorg.conf file for about 2 years now. xorg.conf is still supported to deal with special equipment and needs. |

open xcb upgrade guide and follow it; use careful reading -- some steps are not in code listings; one step is several lines long and needs to be pasted in as a block or typed in with great care for spacing and back slashes
more to follow after you report back
BTW xorg-server has been designed to run without a xorg.conf file for about 2 years now. xorg.conf is still supported to deal with special equipment and needs. |

Well, if lsmod has no output, that must mean that the fglrx driver isn't currently loaded (although I suspect you may have made a typo - it's LSMOD not ISMOD)
Either way, your xorg log file shows that it is failing to load the DRI2 component - this is the most likely source of your issue. Here's what I suggest you try:
Come right out of X (stop xdm, if it's running, and unload the module if it is loaded) and ensure you are fully up-to-date with the relevant packages:
| Code: | /etc/init.d/xdm stop; modprobe -r fglrx
emerge --sync; emerge -uDN eselect-opengl mesa mesa-progs xorg-x11 |
then re-install ati-drivers
| Code: | eselect opengl set xorg-x11
emerge ati-drivers
eselect opengl set ati
|
then load the fglrx module
then start your X session.
Give it a go and let us know how you get on.

Either way, your xorg log file shows that it is failing to load the DRI2 component - this is the most likely source of your issue. Here's what I suggest you try:
Come right out of X (stop xdm, if it's running, and unload the module if it is loaded) and ensure you are fully up-to-date with the relevant packages:
| Code: | /etc/init.d/xdm stop; modprobe -r fglrx
emerge --sync; emerge -uDN eselect-opengl mesa mesa-progs xorg-x11 |
then re-install ati-drivers
| Code: | eselect opengl set xorg-x11
emerge ati-drivers
eselect opengl set ati
|
then load the fglrx module
then start your X session.
Give it a go and let us know how you get on. |
mesa-progs xorg-x11
Results in a command not found
modprobe fglrx results in:
FATAL: Error inserting fglrx (/lib/modules/2.6.30-gentoo-r5/video/fglrx.ko): Operation not permitted
What do I do? I recompiled my kernel and it didn't seem to make a difference. |

That was a one liner, but let me break it down for you. (run these one at a time):
| Code: | emerge --sync
emerge -uDN eselect-opengl
emerge -uDN mesa
emerge -uDN mesa-progs
emerge -uDN xorg-x11
|
Let's add another one whilst we're at it:
| Code: | | emerge -uDN ati-drivers |

You must be running as root - for all of these commands!

Try again with my instructions as posted before and in this post. Once you've run them all without error, please post back...

Ok,
All of those commands worked fine- no errors or anything of the like. I recompiled my kernel as well. However, when I boot, all I get is a black screen instead of Slim showing up so I can't do much beyond that. I don't think it's a kernel issue because I compiled it and rebooted before the other stuff. I'm very confused. Is there a way to completely remove X, the Ati drivers, etc and just start from scratch from the command line? |
