[14:32] heya, just changed laptop last week and upgraded to quantal. Now trying to have the shiny new hd4000 to drive 3 monitors at once and failing quite miserably [14:32] getting any two displays to work is fine, getting the third to work at the same time, not so much [14:34] looking around, I found http://www.mail-archive.com/intel-gfx@lists.freedesktop.org/msg12877.html which may be related [14:34] so far I'm trying with two 1920x1080 external monitor (one over HDMI, other over VGA) + laptop's 1366x768 [14:34] will receive an adapter this week to get both external monitors on DVI (mini-DP => two separate single-link DVI) [14:35] stgraber: so it only has the intel, no hybrid? [14:35] right, it's a new ivy bridge laptop with an hd4000 [14:35] the hd4000 has 3 CRTC [14:36] yup [14:36] so is supposed to be able to drive 3 screens, as long as two of them share the same clock (should be the case here, with two 1920x1080 screens) [14:37] those patches will hit 3.7 at the earliest [14:39] I may try to rebuild a kernel with http://www.mail-archive.com/intel-gfx@lists.freedesktop.org/msg12880.html applied as it seems to match my current setup (one of the two external being on VGA, likely getting CRTC2) [14:41] hopefully everything will just work once I move to DVI for both screens. TBH runing a full-hd screen over VGA is usually quite bad, so I can't think of anyone who'd stick with that setup ;) [14:42] only the first patch is in the drm queue [14:45] Somebody around that could help me to solve HDMI output not working with nouveau? [14:48] dupondje: better luck with #nouveau i guess [14:49] dupondje, what card is that? [14:51] Nvidia GeForce GT 540M [14:51] I can get HDMI output 'working' when I manually add the device in xorg.conf [14:51] the image is a bit disorted [14:52] but xrandr for example shows HDMI1 disconnected [14:52] if dvi works you can use an adapter [14:52] won't carry sound though [14:53] have no DVI output :) [14:53] HDMI & displayport [14:53] neat [14:54] obviously you could use the blob [14:54] you don't have to use nouveau [14:55] the blob can't even read the resolution of my laptop screen ... :) [14:56] which blob is this? [14:56] nvidia-current in quantal [14:57] must say I haven't looked into fixing the blob really :) [14:58] nouveau works near to perfect, except the HDMI output which seems partly broken [14:58] try 3.6-rc [14:58] I guess if xrandr can see the HDMI output connected, its working fine [14:58] tjaalton: tried daily kernel already [14:58] ok [14:58] as I saw alot of new nouveau stuff was in it :) [14:59] http://dupondje.be/dmesg.txt => is my dmesg with drm.debug=0x4 [14:59] you can see it correctly finds the HDMI screen, even its supported resolutions etc [15:01] [ 49.248709] [drm:output_poll_execute], [CONNECTOR:17:HDMI-A-1] status updated from 1 to 1 [15:01] here I pulled the HDMI cable [15:01] (last line) [15:17] any idea's ? :) [16:03] dupondje: like I said, #nouveau would be better for such questions ;) [16:04] its quite dead there :( [16:04] i'll try harder :p [16:05] ah, saw that now [16:05] well, yesterday was a holiday in the US [16:05] dunno if that matters [17:28] tjaalton, bryce, RAOF: hey guys, xorg still has lit of items on http://status.ubuntu.com/ubuntu-quantal/canonical-desktop-team-ubuntu-12.10-beta-1.html ... can we get them postponed, moved to beta2, closed, etc as appropriate? [17:28] desktop-q-xorg-general 15 todo for beta1 [17:29] and some still on desktop-p-libxrandr-utils and desktop-q-hybrid-graphics [17:48] there's a prime ppa now? inb4 front page of phoronix [17:48] hmm, maybe should just delete that task [17:49] no separate ppa, we have what is released [17:49] seb128: checked most of my tasks [17:49] tjaalton, if there was to be a ppa, it would need i915-uxa, nouveau, and xrandr 1.4 [17:49] one remains, probably need to postpone it [17:49] quantal has xrandr 1.4 [17:49] some ddx patches are missing, might make it in, dunno [17:50] seb128, will so do [17:50] tjaalton, bryce: thanks [17:50] will i915 be sna or uxa as default? i know both will be built [17:50] hmm, not sure about xrandr anymore :) [17:51] LLStarks: likely uxa [17:51] airlied's patches are just starting to land for both ddx [17:52] right, so we don't have xrandr 1.4 yet [17:55] meh, I'll decide tomorrow if the ppa is really needed or not [17:58] mesa should be ready if the 8/21 build included the DRI_PRIME cherrypick [17:58] err merge [17:58] looks like it got in [17:59] tjaalton, if you're interested in prime QA for the quantal stack (plus the patched ddx's), i'd be happy to help. very encouraging results so far. [18:00] LLStarks: ok, cool [18:01] mesa snapshot updated as of yesterday, sitting in git waiting for the beta freeze to end (and libdrm update to enter the archive..) [18:08] dri2proto, xserver, randproto, libxrandr are all landed. i'm pretty sure libdrm 2.4.38 landed with the needed changes as well. [18:09] xrandr 1.4 is needed to manually set the provider [18:14] prime with nouveau is nice though, it already outperforms bumblebee with the nvidia blob: http://pastebin.com/j1CQBsdB === yofel_ is now known as yofel === chrisccoulson_ is now known as chrisccoulson === sebdebug is now known as seb128 [21:13] #nouveau seems really silent : [21:57] dupondje, that is because nouveau has no problems or bugs or missing features at all, so no one complains [22:01] right :D [22:01] anyway, opened a bug https://bugs.freedesktop.org/show_bug.cgi?id=54512 :) [22:01] Freedesktop bug 54512 in Driver/nouveau "xrandr does not detect screen" [Normal,New] [22:03] don't believe that one, huh? [22:10] ;
