Bug#455355: xserver-xorg 7.3 from unstable broke X

2007-12-09 Thread Brent S. Elmer, Ph.D. 
Package: xserver-xorg
Version: 1:7.3
Severity: normal

--- Please enter the report below this line. ---
I tried to install xserver-xorg 7.3 from unstable and it broke X.  First the 
error was that
it couldn't find module type1.  I commented out load "type1" in xorg.conf.  
Then it told me 
it couldn't find module v4l.  I commented out load "v4l" in xorg.conf.  Then it 
told me it 
couldn't find mga.  I have a matrox card and need mga so I gave up and reverted 
to xserver-xorg 7.2.

Bug#532623: [xserver-xorg] install hangs at Setting up xserver-xorg (1:7.4+2)

2009-06-10 Thread Brent S. Elmer Ph.D. 
Package: xserver-xorg
Version: 1:7.4+2
Severity: critical

--- Please enter the report below this line. ---
This bug report is not being submitted from the machine the bug is on so 
disregard the package information.  The machine the bug is on is severely 
broken due to
trying to install xserver-xorg 1:7.4+2.  The machine that is broken is an up to 
date 
squeeze box.  I tried to install gnome-session, and gnome-settings-daemon from 
sid.  
When I did that it wanted to install xserver-xorg 1:7.4+2.  Synaptic hung with 
the last line 
in the console saying:

Setting up xserver-xorg (1:7.4+2)

It would not complete so I killed synaptic.  I can still ssh into the box.  
After I removed all of the locks that were 
hanging around, I did dpkg --configure -a to try and reconfigure whatever was 
partially configured.
That command also hangs with the last line saying:

Setting up xserver-xorg (1:7.4+2) ...

So, it looks like X is completely broken. I did Ctrl-Alt-backspace and 
everything went blank.
Ctrl-Alt f1... doesn't even bring up a terminal.

It still hangs when I try to install.  After it hung the first time I
removed the left over locks and tried to reinstall and it hangs again.
Here is where it hangs.

Given the fact that my X is still totally broken, should this bug be
opened again or a new bug opened?

2009-06-15 Thread Brent S. Elmer Ph.D. 
I rebooted the computer hoping that X might work when the computer came
up.  X did start but it had some problems.  I was running metacity
before trying to install the xserver-xorg version from sid and ran into
all of the problems installing.  I noticed some animation when I started
windows in gnome and the windows did not have window decorations.  I
started the compiz configuration applet.  The applet said I was running
metacity which is what should have been running.  I did not see any
metacity process though.  If I select compiz in the applet and then go
back to metacity, metacity will be the windows manager and everything
will work correctly as it did before the xserver-xorg upgrade.  Each
time I login to gnome it seems to go back to compiz.  If I configure
compiz to have window decorations and restart compiz it will have
decorations but they don't do anything (i.e. you can see them but can't
move the window, minimize, maximize, kill, etc. on the decoration).  So
it seems that the xserver-xorg install kind of halfway switched the
window manager from metacity to compiz.  Forcing compiz and configuring
compiz gives me visual non-functioning window decorations.  I wouldn't
mind running compiz if the windows decorations worked.  Otherwise, I
would like the default to be metacity.

Here is dmesg after reboot and attempting to use radeon.  I know radeon
used to work on this computer because I tried it a year or so ago.

Bug#546603: [xorg] have no mouse or keyboard after xorg upgrade

2009-09-14 Thread Brent S. Elmer Ph.D. 
Package: xorg
Version: 1:7.4+4
Severity: critical

--- Please enter the report below this line. ---
I upgraded my squeeze box this morning to the new xorg that just hit testing.  
When I get the 
gdm prompt I have no keyboard or mouse.  I can connect to the computer remotely 
which is how I 
am submitting this bug report.  The computer is an IBM thinkpad T42p.

You can see it has an ATI video card so X is trying to use the radeon driver.

I see this in my Xorg.0.log:

(II) Cannot locate a core pointer device.
(II) Cannot locate a core keyboard device.
(II) The server relies on HAL to provide the list of input devices.
If no devices become available, reconfigure HAL or disable 
AllowEmptyInput.

I am attaching my Xorg.0.log and my xorg.conf.  What do I need to do to make 
this work?

I was previously using fglrx but the upgrade to xorg removed fglrx so I can't 
easily go 
back to fglrx which is okay if the radeon driver will work.

Bug#546836: [xserver-xorg-video-mga] black screen when X starts

2009-09-15 Thread Brent S. Elmer Ph.D. 
Package: xserver-xorg-video-mga
Version: 1:1.4.11.dfsg-1
Severity: grave

--- Please enter the report below this line. ---
I upgraded xserver-xorg... that hit squeeze recently.  I also updated 
xserver-xorg-video-mga.
When I restarted X, I don't get a gdm login screen it is just  black.  I can 
still hear the ready to
login sound that plays.  I can blindly type the login information and hear the 
gnome login sound.  The 
screen remains black.  It is like the monitor has been put to sleep.  I can do 
alt-F1 to go to a tty session.
When it opens the session, the monitor slowly wakes up and I can see the 
session.  There are no errors in the 
Xorg.0.log.  I have a Matrox G550 card.  I even tried removing xorg.conf and 
letting X set everything.  It didn't make 
any difference.  I tried /etc/init.d/gdm resgtart and X restarts and I can hear 
the ready to login sound but the screen is 
still black.  I am submitting this bug report from a different computer because 
the other one is not very useful at 
the moment.  What can I do to fix it?

Bug#585911: display breaks on Lenovo W500 with KMS

2010-10-01 Thread Brent S. Elmer Ph.D. 
I got the latest linux-source 2.6.32 from sid and rebuilt my kernel.  I
removed my /etc/modprobe.d/radeon-kms.conf which had options radeon
modeset=0.  I can boot with the kernel and X seems to be fine.  When I
look in Xorg.0.log I see the following line:

[KMS] drm report modesetting isn't supported.

So, I'm not sure if KMS is being used or not.  I am on the current
squeeze version of xserver-xorg-video-radeon(1:6.13.1-2)

Bug#585911: display breaks on Lenovo W500 with KMS

2010-10-01 Thread Brent S. Elmer Ph.D. 
I set modeset=1 explicitly.  It still said modesetting isn't supported
in the Xorg.0.log.  I got linux-image-2.6.32-5-686-bigmen from sid
(2.6.32-24) and rebooted and KMS worked.  I did get 4 or 5 error
messages first thing in the boot messages at the top of the screen.  I
couldn't write them all down before they scrolled off.  They started out
something like this:

drm:[atom_op_jump] *ERROR* atombios stuck in loop for more than 1 sec
...

So, I don't know if setting modeset=1 explicitly is actually required or
if the sid kernel was all that was required.
