Bug 30402

I am getting the same when building mesa with r600 gallium, with the autogen command -

 --enable-debug --disable-egl  --enable-gallium-r600 --enable-gallium-swrast --with-dri-drivers=r600,swrast

My radeon_drv.so gets overwritten so that the next startx fails with the error as reported.

Either the binary needs to be renamed to radeong_drv.so, or the references to 'radeong' in src/gallium/targets/xorg-radeon/radeon_xorg.c need to be changed to 'radeon'.

replaces 'radeong' in src/gallium/targets/xorg-radeon/radeon_xorg.c with 'radeon'

Thank you! I changed the references in radeon_xorg.c like you said.

Forgot to mention: After replacing 'radeong' with 'radeon' xorg server was starting and I was able to log into KDE. Looks fine so far.

So it's fixed ?

It's been a while since I was playing with the Xorg state tracker. It did work when I booted into the graphical mode using the xf86-video-ati driver, then quit the xserver and restarting the xserver with the Xorg state tracker. It didn't work after a reboot of the system.

There is a little bit more information in this bug report: https://bugs.freedesktop.org/show_bug.cgi?id=30406

If it is still broken: Could you please attach a full log of a failed Xorg start with the state tracker enabled.

Hello Knut,

thanks for looking into the problem. I did try to make a package with the xorg driver but xorg doesn't start. I don't know what the exact problem is though. Could you have a look at my build file which I use to build my packages if I have some configuration problem?


Greetings
Martin

Xorg log file for r600 card when 2d acceleration is disabled

Hello,

I've found the problem why it didn't work. I didn't know that the entry funtion (or whatever it is called) has to have the same name as the driver. After creating a xorg.conf file I was able to successfully start the Xorg server. It's working great on my two systems (no problems after rebooting the system). One system has a r500 type card installed and the other system has a r600 type card installed.

When I enable 2d acceleration in xorg.conf I get screen corruptions though (see attached screenshots of Firefox). There is an error/info message in the Xorg log file:
"[  2724.965] (II) r300(0): xorg_composite_accelerated fallback Component alpha not supported with source alpha and source value blending. (op=3)"
This message is the same for both cards.

Best regards
Martin

The bug reported here is fixed. Current Mesa Git produces lib/gallium/r300_drv.so which can be loaded with Driver "r300".

That's not related to the original problem and needs to be tracked separately.

That's not related. If you don't want to get these debugging messages, use Option "DebugFallback" "off".
