=== yofel_ is now known as yofel [13:00] Is Intel Clarkdale blacklisted for compiz in maverick? [16:25] apw, Sarvatt: happy new year [16:26] apw, Sarvatt: please see cjwatson's comment on: https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/linux/+bug/693093 [16:26] Launchpad bug 693093 in linux (Ubuntu) (and 1 other project) "[i945gme] 2.6.37-10.24: Black Screen on Boot (affects: 8) (heat: 50)" [High,Confirmed] [16:30] marjo, yep so things work with old grub and not new ... what graphics h/w is this? [16:31] marjo, this probabally means newer grub is leaving the display initiailised differnetly and the kernel is not coping [16:31] apw: Intel 945GME Express Integrated Graphics Controller (rev 03) [16:31] marjo, as this is intel graphics we need to get an intel_reg_dumper output from both working and not working cases for comparison [16:32] preferably at the same spot, say at gdm just after the drums, remotely logging in to get it [16:32] apw: please provide specific instructions [16:34] marjo, and as we have just released a new -12 kernel i recon you should test with that [16:34] as for instructions: [16:35] install intel-gpu-tools [16:35] got it [16:35] run sudo intel_reg_dumper on the old grub and on the new grub [16:35] preferably at the same place [16:36] apw: how do i do that with the old grub when i can't even get to any ttys? [16:37] marjo, i thought you could hear the drums [16:37] which means the machine is up, so you can login over the network [16:37] apw: yes, so run it using ssh login, after the drum is heard, right? [16:37] apw: will do [16:38] marjo, yes in both cases, working and not [16:38] apw: ack [16:39] then the setup is the same in both cases, so any register differences are likely the problem [16:39] marjo, but do upgrade to -12 beforehand [16:39] apw: ah yes [17:03] apw: bad news [17:03] * apw listens [17:04] apw: with latest grub-1.99~20110104 and kernel-12, kernel-11, i don't even hear drums any more! [17:05] apw: but i have intel_reg_dumper output for old grub & kernel-12 (which works) [17:06] marjo, ok so boot -11 on both [17:06] apw: will do [17:07] or whatever kernel works on both [17:07] boots ok on both, not with working graphics obviously [17:21] apw: ok, i've got two dump files, how do you want them? [17:21] marjo, on the bug please, label them appropriatly with kernel and grub versions in both [17:22] apw: oh wait; i need to get you -11 and old grub, sorry [17:47] apw ok attached two intel_reg_dumper outputs [17:54] marjo, will this machine be in dallas next week? [17:54] apw: yes, it's my "travel netbook" [18:00] marjo, cool then we can look at it some more then [18:01] i think we need to get an intel_reg_dumper before X starts which is somewhat complex to descrive [18:04] marjo, is 1126 the first one which works going back, ie. have you tried the ones in between [18:06] apw: 1126 was suggested by Sarvatt based on his analysis of when the breakage occurred [18:07] apw, i.e. before Alpha-1 release, since I confirmed that the Alpha-1 worked, remember? [18:07] maxb, be handy to confirm exactly which version triggers this, the changes between the two grubs may help us understand [18:07] * maxb *blinks*, pays attention [18:11] maxb, soz stupid xchat (or stupid apw) [18:11] marjo, ^^ [18:12] Heh. I have a i945 too :-) [18:12] apw: what do you want me to look at?! [18:13] marjo, never mind we'll look next week [18:13] apw: ok thx; i'll bring an extra netbook, for backup [18:13] cool [20:48] hi [20:48] I got: error setting MTRR when trying to load X, there's only X installed. What does this mean/how to fix? [20:50] qoelqast, https://wiki.ubuntu.com/X/Glossary#What%20are%20%22MTRR%22s? [20:52] bryceh:I read something on gentoo wiki, but is there a way to fix that? [20:55] bryceh: cat /proc/mtrr gives outpu: base=0x000000000 ( 0MB),size= 128MB, count=1:write-back etc [20:59] Well, I guess the problem isn't X based? I'll try in default channel, thanks === JanC_ is now known as JanC === apachelogger is now known as gnomelogger
