I've noticed also this in dmesg:

You are using kms, right?

Please attach the full Xorg.0.log and dmesg, according to http://intellinuxgraphics.org/how_to_report_bug.html.

Yes using kms; (without it does works normally)

i've tried the 2.6.3, this version i thinki i't more correct with my laptop becouse i get the right resolution with kms (1280x800 instead thatw 1280x1280 with 2.6.2).

but with 2.6.3 and kms after kdm login if i run kde after some seconds the screen freeze. using the failsafe X login instead i can run the simpole glxggears without windows decoration correcnly.


any assumptions?

can i help you in some way?

(In reply to comment #3)
> can i help you in some way?

attachment as I requested in comment#2.

Sorry i've didn't notice the request.

I'm going to attach dmesg and xorg log;

He are the related additional informations:

Chipset: "Mobile Intel® GM45 Express Chipset"
System Architecture: i686
Xorg-server: 1.5.3
Mesa: 7.3
Libdrm: 2.4.5
Kernel Version: 2.6.29-rc7-git1
Linux Distribution: Gentoo
Machine: Sony Vaio SR19XN

Step used to reproduce:

boot with modeset=0
login correctly in kdm on Kde
/etc/init.d/kdm stop
rmmod i915
modprobe i915 modeset=1
/etc/init.d/kdm start
=> and the screen freezes
shutdown with power button, so only the video card it's freezed, not all the system.

Created attachment 23608 [details]
dmesg

Created attachment 23609 [details]
xorg log with modeset=1

The screen freeze before reg dump, i've attached also a xorg log using exa with the reg dump inside.

Created attachment 23610 [details]
xorg log with modeset=0

If it can help with modeset=1 i've noticed this from the xorg log:

(==) intel(0): VideoRam: 4194303 KB


this is totally insane

i've tried to force it to the correct value(262144 ) but i got:

(WW) intel(0): Option "VideoRam" is not used


any suggestion?

Looks like in the KMS case you're not getting DRI2 initialized for some reason, so you may be hitting a failure in the non-DRI path somehow.

The video memory thing is an artifact of KMS; it just reports a bogus value since the kernel manages everything (I should just remove it in the KMS case).

Maybe you can pull git master of xf86-video-intel and see if DRI2 works there?

Any update here Giovanni?

Jesse thanks for the interest.
I've tryed with the gentoo x11 overlay that includes xorg 1.6.0 and it does work!

but i got some problems:

- freeze on vt change
- on a 3d game i not some errors in surfaces


is there no way to make it work with dri1 at the momemnt ? any assumption


now i've reverted to xorg 1.5.3

VT switch works for me with git master of xf86-video-intel from today, can you try that when you have time?  Also please attach the dmesg and X log from your updated test config.

Ok, sounds like this was just a config problem, so I'm closing it out.  Thanks for testing!
