Sorry for the cross-posting, problem seems to cross these three lists; remove inappropriate ones on reply if desired. I've got a VIA EPIA box which has the CastleRock CLE266 video chipset. Matt Dillion provided instructions on how to get the port XFree86-4-Server-snap to run, so I've been able to run its 4.3.99.12 build for a while. Last night I updated the port, which got XFree86 4.3.99.15. It works on my other non-VIA machines, but on the VIA CLE266 box it bombs upon startup, using the same XFree86Config file I had been using earlier. /var/log/XFree86.0.log repeats several times before death: Symbol drmOpen from module /usr/X11R6/lib/modules/drivers/via_drv.o is unresolvable Symbol drmClose from module /usr/X11R6/lib/modules/drivers/via_drv.o is unresolvable After some googling I added lines to my XFree86Config: Load "vbe" Load "int10" Load "drm" This made the "drmOpen/drmClose unresolvable" messages go away, but it died anyway, with no indication why. I suspected that DRI/DRM isn't working for me, since VIA isn't one of the common chipsets that seem to be supported, like here: /usr/src/sys/modules/drm: -rw-r--r-- 1 root wheel 141 Sep 9 2003 Makefile -rw-r--r-- 1 root wheel 110 Nov 6 2002 Makefile.inc drwxr-xr-x 2 root wheel 512 Jan 14 06:04 mga drwxr-xr-x 2 root wheel 512 Jan 14 06:04 r128 drwxr-xr-x 2 root wheel 512 Jan 14 06:04 radeon drwxr-xr-x 2 root wheel 512 Jan 14 06:04 sis drwxr-xr-x 2 root wheel 512 Jan 14 06:04 tdfx I then recomiled the XFree86-4-Server-snap after hacking the Makefile to get it to *not* use: RUN_DEPENDS+= ${X11BASE}/lib/modules/dri/r200_dri.so:${PORTSDIR}/graphics/dri BuildXF86DRI= YES PLIST_SUB+= DRI="" But again, it died on the VIA on startup, with no message indicating what failed in the log file. Am I correct in thinking that the problem is with FreeBSD's DRI/DRM support of the VIA CLE266 chips? If so, is there a way to tell XFree86Config to NOT use these features, to disable these options? If it's something else, any suggestions for a work-around? If 4.3.99.15 simply won't on my HW, can someone provide the incantation to cvsup the port from back when it used XFree86-4.3.99.12 ? Any other suggestions? Thanks.Received on Mon Apr 12 2004 - 08:28:49 UTC
