Xory.0.log
I have exactly the same problem with my Dell X200 (i830M chip). X.org.log has the errors attached below; not sure these are related. -- Marten van Kerkwijk . . . (II) Loading /usr/lib/xorg/modules/drivers//sil164.so (II) Module sil164: vendor="X.Org Foundation" compiled for 1.3.0, module version = 1.0.0 ABI class: X.Org Video Driver, version 1.2 (II) intel(0): I2C bus "DVOI2C_E" initialized. (EE) intel(0): detecting sil164 (EE) intel(0): Unable to read from DVOI2C_E Slave 112. (II) Loading sub module "ch7xxx" (II) LoadModule: "ch7xxx" (II) Loading /usr/lib/xorg/modules/drivers//ch7xxx.so (II) Module ch7xxx: vendor="X.Org Foundation" compiled for 1.3.0, module version = 1.0.0 ABI class: X.Org Video Driver, version 1.2 (II) intel(0): I2C bus "DVOI2C_E" removed. (II) intel(0): I2C bus "DVOI2C_E" initialized. (EE) intel(0): Unable to read from DVOI2C_E Slave 236. (II) intel(0): I2C bus "DVOI2C_E" removed. (II) intel(0): I2C bus "DVODDC_D" removed. We don't have any working drivers for the integrated panels on the 830. You can find sample code (not working yet, and not probed for in i830_dvo.c) for the two common panel chipsets in the ivch and ch7017 directories of xf86-video-intel, and the specs for those chipsets are public. Ok, I830 panel support for the IVCH DVO chip has been merged to the intel driver master branch. It was tested on an IBM X30, so your mileage may vary, please test it at your convenience and re-open this bug if it still fails on your machine. Created attachment 10458 [details]
Xorg.0.log using xserver-xorg-video-intel
I tried installing the new Debian package xserver-xorg-video-intel 2.0.0 on my Dell X200 laptop with i830M, but unfortunately, the melting effect on the laptop display still appears. The error messages are exactly the same as described above in comment #2 (I attach the full log file). The latter may mean the appropriate modules was not updated in Debian's version; if so, please let me know. Thanks, -- Marten van Kerkwijk (In reply to comment #6) > I tried installing the new Debian package xserver-xorg-video-intel 2.0.0 on my > Dell X200 laptop with i830M, but unfortunately, the melting effect on the > laptop display still appears.

Thanks for the quick reply! With 2.0.0-5, the screen does not "melt" anymore, but it is not quite OK yet: the screen stays black, apart from the pointer (which changes shape appropriately when one moves over an otherwise invisible xterm). It sounds very similar to Debian Bug#430085, and I'll investigate solutions that I think I saw elsewhere. However, this is just to confirm that your bug 10748 can indeed stay closed. -- Marten |
