Hi listers
I upgraded myhost to the following version of fedora 13 this morning.
[myuser@myhost ~]$ uname -a
Linux myhost.lan 2.6.34.6-54.fc13.x86_64 #1 SMP Sun Sep 5 17:16:27 UTC
2010 x86_64 x86_64 x86_64 GNU/Linux
[myuser@myhost ~]$
After the upgrade compiz failed to work in the upgraded system. When I
try to start compiz, it says:
[myuser@myhost ~]$ compiz --replace &
[1] 3012
[myuser@myhost ~]$ compiz (core) - Fatal: GLX_EXT_texture_from_pixmap is
missing
compiz (core) - Error: Failed to manage screen: 0
compiz (core) - Fatal: No manageable screens found on display :0.0
[1]+ Exit 1 compiz --replace
[myuser@myhost ~]$
I thought that it was a failure in a library or in the xorg-server
alltoghether and googled around with that in mind to find a solution. I,
however, didn't find anything which helped. I also did not find any
convincing error in the /var/log/Xorg.0.log, except that according to
this log
[ 20.929] (WW) RADEON(0): Direct rendering disabled
When I did, however,
[myuser@myhost ~]$ glxinfo |grep -i direct
direct rendering: Yes
[myuser@myhost ~]$
I then gave the old kernel (2.6.33.6-147.2.4.fc13.x86_64) a try and -
unexpectedly - compiz workes fine with the new libraries when using the
old kernel.
This is how I start the two kernels:
title upper Disk Fedora (2.6.34.6-54.fc13.x86_64)
root (hd0,0)
kernel /vmlinuz-2.6.34.6-54.fc13.x86_64 ro
root=UUID=afe5a1d5-a316-4cfb-90e0-d7e44b582037 rd_NO_LUKS rd_NO_LVM
rd_NO_MD rd_NO_DM LANG=en_US.UTF-8 SYSFONT=latarcyrheb-sun16 KEYTABLE=sg
resume=UUID=767752a5-5c99-4076-82d0-8912ef12a0db
initrd /initramfs-2.6.34.6-54.fc13.x86_64.img
title upper disk Fedora (2.6.33.6-147.2.4.fc13.x86_64)
root (hd0,0)
kernel /vmlinuz-2.6.33.6-147.2.4.fc13.x86_64 ro
root=UUID=afe5a1d5-a316-4cfb-90e0-d7e44b582037 rd_NO_LUKS rd_NO_LVM
rd_NO_MD rd_NO_DM LANG=en_US.UTF-8 SYSFONT=latarcyrheb-sun16 KEYTABLE=sg
resume=UUID=767752a5-5c99-4076-82d0-8912ef12a0db
initrd /initramfs-2.6.33.6-147.2.4.fc13.x86_64.img
Note that I do not use the "nomodeset" flag.
The graphics driver is radeon:
[root@myhost ~]# lsmod |grep radeon
radeon 711725 2
ttm 54819 1 radeon
drm_kms_helper 24738 1 radeon
drm 176953 4 radeon,ttm,drm_kms_helper
i2c_algo_bit 5045 1 radeon
i2c_core 25709 5
i2c_piix4,radeon,drm_kms_helper,drm,i2c_algo_bit
[root@myhost ~]#
[root@myhost ~]# cat /etc/X11/xorg.conf
Section "Device"
Identifier "Videocard0"
Driver "radeon"
Option "AccelMethod" "EXA"
Option "DRI" "1"
EndSection
Section "Extensions"
Option "Composite" "Enable"
EndSection
[root@myhost ~]#
Has somebody had a similar problem? How did you solve the problem with
the new kernel?
