Subject Re: [OpenIndiana-discuss] Selecting wrong video driver

Hi,

nvidia and modesettings messages are not from X11 but rather from the kernel 
trying all drivers when It does not find a card.
That makes sense, if only for the ignoring of the config file I made at Alan's suggestion (but also for other reasons).

Note that we are not a FreeBSD based OS thus assumptions about the card simply 
working cannot be made.
Oh, I'm well aware of that. But it certainly _won't_ work if it isn't even using the right driver.

 I am currently updating our libdrm version and then mesa and so on. If you can 
get me the pci id of your intel card from `prtconf -v` I can check if it is 
supported. Or if additional work will be required. That additional work being 
porting kernel bits from FreeBSD or other sources (our original driver is from 
linux)
Would this be what you need?
name='vendor-name' type=string items=1
                    value='Intel Corporation'
                name='device-name' type=string items=1
                    value='HD Graphics 620'
                name='subsystem-name' type=string items=1
                    value='unknown subsystem'
            Device Minor Nodes:
                dev=(249,0)
                    dev_path=/pci@0,0/display@2:text-0
                        spectype=chr type=minor
                        dev_link=/dev/fbs/text-0
                        dev_link=/dev/fb0
                        dev_link=/dev/vt00
                        dev_link=/dev/fb

Hmm. I've always assumed that this system was AMD-based, because that is what WinDoze always implied way back when... But maybe not.

Stack updates are necesary anyway though as DRI support for and the userland 
parts are part of the mesa sources, which I am working on at the moment.

Your Symptoms look like your card is simply not supported. Running the ddu 
utility from pkg:/diagnostic/ddu in the terminal should give further 
information. Using vesa as the driver should also help.
I've never used this, and only now installed the package (and its dependencies, etc.) Is this what you are wanting to see? (Controller)Intel Corporation HD Graphics 620:DEVID=0x5916:CLASS=00030000:[0,2,0]:vgatext:0:Attached:VENDOR=0x8086

Hello again.
It seems like some emails are not getting through. I've been checking by 
watching the archives. Also, sorry about the break--supper, and what-not.
Alan: thanks for the text. Unfortunately, the file is being ignored and NVidia 
and nvidia_modesetting are still loading and then unloading, and X doesn't 
start. sigh I've tried playing with permissions and ownership...
