1 Hello,
2
3 I have strange problem with X.org. I've updated whole world and after it the
4 X.org stop working correctly:
5 - in gdm the text fields doesn't look like text fiedls
6 - windows in fluxbox are without header and the text is not readable, because
7 the characters overwriting each other
8 - the "X -config" doesn't work at all and "X -config -retro" shows only balck
9 screen (no background of x characters)
10
11 All that wrong functionality is when using intel video card. I've try to
12 switch to fbdev and everything is up, but there's no way how to play video,
13 it's horribly slow.
14
15 When using X.org with intel driver there's an error in log:
16 FATAL: Module fbcon not found.
17 (EE) intel(0): Failed to submit batch buffer, expect rendering corruption or
18 even a frozen display: No such device.
19
20 And when using X.org with fbdev driver there's another error in log:
21 (EE) FBDEV(0): FBIOPUTCMAP: Invalid argument
22
23 Is there a way how to move back to correct functionality with fast video and
24 intel video driver for X.org?
25
26 Using kernel tuxonice-2.6.32-r18, xorg-server-1.9.4, xorg-drivers-1.9.
27
28 Thanks a lot for help
