One thing to note, I dont switch to console while DRI is active otherwise panic could happen(last time when I tested it with 915GM). > All that's in /var/log/messages is May 13 11:19:35 jimmiejaz kernel: > pid 65663 (Xorg), uid 0: exited on signal 6 > Unfortunatly, Xorg log doesn't have anything, as I restarted X over ssh > several times, the only thing there, is when trying to startx a lot of > times, the first attempt can't find any screens with a usable > configuration, ^c then startx again works just fine. > > (WW) intel(0): drmDropMaster failed: Unknown error: -1 > (II) intel(0): [drm] removed 1 reserved context for kernel > (II) intel(0): [drm] unmapping 8192 bytes of SAREA 0xc5819000 at 0x2884f000 > (II) intel(0): [drm] Closed DRM master. > > > xrandr > Screen 0: minimum 320 x 200, current 1600 x 1200, maximum 1600 x 1600 > VGA connected 1600x1200+0+0 (normal left inverted right x axis y axis) > 306mm x 230mm > 1600x1200 65.0* > > vgapci0@pci0:0:2:0: class=0x030000 card=0x25821043 chip=0x25828086 > rev=0x04 hdr=0x00 > vendor = 'Intel Corporation' > device = '82915G/GV/GL, 82910GL Integrated Graphics Device' > class = display > subclass = VGA > > grep vga /var/run/dmesg.boot > vgapci0: <VGA-compatible display> port 0x6800-0x6807 mem > 0xcfd80000-0xcfdfffff,0xd0000000-0xdfffffff,0xcfe80000-0xcfebffff at > device 2.0 on pci0 > agp0: <Intel 82915G (915G GMCH) SVGA controller> on vgapci0 > drm0: <Intel i915G> on vgapci0 > vgapci0: child drm0 requested pci_enable_busmaster > vgapci1: <VGA-compatible display> mem 0xcfe00000-0xcfe7ffff at device > 2.1 on pci0 > vga0: <Generic ISA VGA> at port 0x3c0-0x3df iomem 0xa0000-0xbffff on isa0 > vgapci0: <VGA-compatible display> port 0x6800-0x6807 mem > 0xcfd80000-0xcfdfffff,0xd0000000-0xdfffffff,0xcfe80000-0xcfebffff at > device 2.0 on pci0 > agp0: <Intel 82915G (915G GMCH) SVGA controller> on vgapci0 > drm0: <Intel i915G> on vgapci0 > vgapci0: child drm0 requested pci_enable_busmaster > vgapci1: <VGA-compatible display> mem 0xcfe00000-0xcfe7ffff at device > 2.1 on pci0 > vga0: <Generic ISA VGA> at port 0x3c0-0x3df iomem 0xa0000-0xbffff on isa0 > > > > -- > Over the years I've come to regard you as people I've met. > > _______________________________________________ > freebsd-multimedia@freebsd.org mailing list > http://lists.freebsd.org/mailman/listinfo/freebsd-multimedia > To unsubscribe, send any mail to > "freebsd-multimedia-unsubscribe@freebsd.org" > That is same corrupted screen output I was experiencing with older server and mesa. And only when zapping Xorg. Somehow small change somewhere "fixed" that problem for me, actually everything points to some timeing issue. It's hard to say if this is FreeBSD DRM issue or X11(mesa or server) problem. I could put console into somehow not perfect but still usable conditon if I started X11 again using vesa driver. -- Paul
