Thanks Salvatore, and thanks everyone. |

Finally I got it solved by follow Salvatore's suggestion. I am using the |
| 11 |
bumblebee project. |
| 12 |
|
| 13 |
there are still some other minor problems solved before success running |
| 14 |
bumblebee. |
| 15 |
|
| 16 |
The vgl init script doesn't work on xdm. the xauth section should have a |
| 17 |
update. the start function of /etc/init.d/vgl was updated. paste here for |
| 18 |
anyone may need it. |
| 19 |
|
| 20 |
start() { |
| 21 |
ebegin "Starting VirtualGL" |
| 22 |
truncate --size=0 /etc/VirtualGL/vgl_xauth_key |
| 23 |
|
| 24 |
# Check if XAUTHORITY was set successfully, if not wait a bit and let X |
| 25 |
to start |
| 26 |
[ -z "$XAUTHORITY" ] && sleep 3 && set_xauth |
| 27 |
[ -e "$XAUTHORITY" ] || sleep 3 |
| 28 |
for i in `xauth -f $XAUTHORITY list | awk '{print $3}'`; do |
| 29 |
xauth -f /etc/VirtualGL/vgl_xauth_key add $DISPLAY . $i && \ |
| 30 |
chmod 644 /etc/VirtualGL/vgl_xauth_key |
| 31 |
done |
| 32 |
eend $? |
| 33 |
} |
| 34 |
|
| 35 |
|
| 36 |
and i915(and its modsetting ) is required for my intel onboard card, but we |
| 37 |
have to disable all framebuffer driver options before going that. |
| 38 |
|
| 39 |
else the screen will get blank during boot stage. |
