Moin, I have to operate some 'surf station' at science conferences, so I thought it's a chance to test the backstreet ruby patch with several X servers. I have: patched and compiled a 2.4.25 by my own A debian based Pentium 4 with 1 GB RAM X packages 4.3.0-0pre1v3 from http://www.schuldei.org/debian/bruby 1 nVidia AGP card 1 nVidia PCI card 1 Matrox Millennium 2 PS2 keyboards 1 USB keyboard 3 USB mices The kernel is started with the parameter 'dumbcon=2' by grub I followed the instructions from the XFree-Local-multi-user-HOWTO.txt (so far). Now the problem: As long as there are only the PCI cards are build in everything is fine! I can use both consoles. Therefore, I have these entries in my /etc/inittab: # For we use "1-16", "17" and "18" #X2:23:respawn: su - guest -c "startx -- /usr/X11R6/bin/X2 :2 -layout X2 -xf86config XF86Config-4 vt7" X0:23:respawn: su - averell -c "sleep 5 ;startx -- /usr/X11R6/bin/X0 :0 -layout X0 -xf86config XF86Config-4 vt17" X1:23:respawn: su - joe -c "sleep 10; startx -- /usr/X11R6/bin/X1 :1 -layout X1 -xf86config XF86Config-4 vt18" But when the AGP card is build in, no matter if I try to start the 'X2' or not: the machine freeze in the second 'X0' is starting. The last lines in the logfile are (II) Module fb: vendor="The XFree86 Project" compiled for 4.3.0.1, module version = 1.0.0 ABI class: XFree86 ANSI C Emulation, version 0.2 (II) Loading sub module "xaa" (II) LoadModule: "xaa" (II) Loading /usr/X11R6/lib/modules/libxaa.a Here is the output of a 'lspci' cactus:~# lspci 00:00.0 Host bridge: Intel Corp. 82845 845 (Brookdale) Chipset Host Bridge (rev 11) 00:01.0 PCI bridge: Intel Corp. 82845 845 (Brookdale) Chipset AGP Bridge (rev 11) 00:1d.0 USB Controller: Intel Corp.: Unknown device 24c2 (rev 01) 00:1d.1 USB Controller: Intel Corp.: Unknown device 24c4 (rev 01) 00:1d.2 USB Controller: Intel Corp.: Unknown device 24c7 (rev 01) 00:1d.7 USB Controller: Intel Corp.: Unknown device 24cd (rev 01) 00:1e.0 PCI bridge: Intel Corp. 82820 820 (Camino 2) Chipset PCI (rev 81) 00:1f.0 ISA bridge: Intel Corp.: Unknown device 24c0 (rev 01) 00:1f.1 IDE interface: Intel Corp.: Unknown device 24cb (rev 01) 00:1f.3 SMBus: Intel Corp.: Unknown device 24c3 (rev 01) 01:00.0 VGA compatible controller: nVidia Corporation: Unknown device 032b (rev a1) 02:03.0 Multimedia audio controller: C-Media Electronics Inc CM8738 (rev 10) 02:0a.0 Ethernet controller: Intel Corp. 82557 [Ethernet Pro 100] (rev 0c) 02:0b.0 VGA compatible controller: Matrox Graphics, Inc.

In the documentation the gpm with a special parameter is mentioned. But I don't use gpm. In an other docu the command echo "1"> /proc/bus/pci/hackvideo is mentioned, but as far as I understud the HowTo it's not longer needed with the patched X server? I even think about to write an article about this method, so every help is welcome!

Mulptiple X servers depends from video adapters and mainboard too. Impossible cover all cases. Aivils |

Moin, I just subscribed to this list. I want to use one or more PC with some X consoles at a conference. Because I have some problems with the AGP card I wonder if user questions are welcome to this developer list?

Hi: I use Debian and my setup works just fine, but that is no help I am sure. I use the 4.26 patch to a vanilla kernel: no Debian kernel!!! Then I use the X .debs of Andreas from which you might have to force some X application installations.

Hi! I'm trying to set aside some time to grok the patch you sent me... For one thing, I have now produced a set of logs and output from various parts of the proc fs with the current running kernel, without your patch. They are now at http://dev.kjernsmo.net/tmp/ruby-only-logs1/ This stuff was produced just after the keyboard started generating events.

It is quite doable, possibly even easy depending on your setup. Svetljo and Aivils give super help, as does their documentation. Write to the list for help after completely checking out the latter.

No triks. fbcon seems contain bugs. My test adapters is too old and maintainer-less (Voodoo 1, ATI 3D rage). tdfxfb will not work on 2 adapters.

MGA G400 AGP (rev 82) Just try 4 sequences: 1) modprobe matroxfb modprobe radeonfb modprobe fbcon 2) modprobe radeonfb modprobe matroxfb modprobe fbcon 3) modprobe radeonfb modprobe fbcon 4) modprobe matroxfb modprobe fbcon :) Secondary xf86 may stop Your console output. In may case i oft do blindly login and type "consolechars -d", which command restores VGA fonts. After "consolechars -d" VGA is usable until any xf86 restart. Aivils |

Current most safe way is coplete work with 2.4.25 , because > all what You needs are now on the site. it's a Mandrake one, but with 2.6 kernels the kernel is a lot more usable on other distros and i think it should work fine on any distro (at least the kernel itself, the rpm post install scripts wont be really compatible) there are no such havy patches in any of the distributions like in 2.4 kernels (e.g. 0(1) scheduler, nptl, ....) i did used my 2.6.3 kernel without modifications on debian unstable, all i need to do was to add another entry to lilo.conf and copy the modules to the debian install best, svetljo |

Hi all I have a perfectly running multiheadsystem (GF FX 5800 AGP+Trident PCI) except when 2 users work simultanisly. I'd tried many combinations of different windowmanagers and drivers for the Nvidia card, but in the end, the system freezes whenever more then one user are logged in. I can't find the reason because there arn't any failures reported in the log files. Is there a way to fix such a problem? best regards tobias ____________________________________________________ Aufnehmen, abschicken, nah sein - So einfach ist WEB.DE Video-Mail: http://freemail.web.de/?mc=021200 |
