Xorg.0.log with 2.4.2-7 and XAA

Description of problem:

X fails to start and the Xorg.0.log shows:

(EE) intel(0): Failed to pin front buffer: Cannot allocate memory

Fatal server error:
Couldn't bind memory for BO front buffer

Note that my xorg.conf is set to use XAA instead of EXA because the
latter causes the computer to completely hang when X tries to start.  In
dmesg, the following error appears repeatedly:

mtrr: type mismatch for d0000000,10000000 old: write-back new: write-combining
[drm:i915_gem_object_bind_to_gtt] *ERROR* GTT full, but LRU list empty

Version-Release number of selected component (if applicable):

xorg-x11-drv-i810-2.4.2-7

I was able to successfully use XAA with xorg-x11-drv-i810-2.4.2-1, but I
have not been able to use either XAA or EXA in any version since.

Please let me know if any other output would be helpful.

I am also attaching the Xorg.0.log from xorg-x11-drv-i810-2.4.2-7 with
EXA, which causes the system to completely hang.  In some runs, there
were no errors in the Xorg.0.log (it just stopped), but in others, it
gave more verbose output, which I am attaching.  It appears that the
same messages appeared in the syslog as with XAA.

I could be mistaken, but I believe it to be a different issue.  In this
case, I cannot ever get X to start, and there are errors that appear in
the Xorg.0.log and in dmesg.  With 2.4.2-1, X usually worked, but I
haven't been able to get it to start with 2.4.2-2 and later.  In
contrast, bug 461171 is an occasional problem (20% of the time) that I
noticed with 2.4.2-1, and it doesn't put any errors in the log.

Version 2.4.2-1 doesn't work with either EXA or XAA, and later versions
don't work because of the "BO front buffer" error.  The machines I've
tested this with are G43/G45.  Anyway, it sounds like they've made a
bunch of stability improvements upstream recently, so it would be great
to have a newer working driver.  Thanks in advance to whoever is working

Installing F10-Snap1-i686 on Intel 82845G/GL[Brookdale-G]/GE broke X unless 
option "NoAccel" was added to some xorg.conf file created after completion of 
the install procedure, and the bug still affects current "rawhide".
It does not seem to be a matter of kernel mode setting anyway which appears to 
be currently disabled for Intel graphics.

Just for the record, at least since F9 i810 driver is just an alias for
intel driver.

Side note: with Option "Legacy3D" "no" the KDE splash screen is
being displayed properly but the X server is soon getting stuck in some
DRI ioctl . 

Just launching X and starting an xterm and twm goes OK, however when
moving around the xterm there is graphics garbage left behind
(mostly thin horizontal and vertical lines). The xterm (maximized)
survives a find / -print and runs at a fine speed. Then I got
adventurous and started firefox on www.orf.at. The page got mostly
displayed  but then the X server hung like above.

During boot I only get something like a progress bar in text mode
at the bottom of the screen, no nice splash image at all.

Konrad

That's expected. Graphical boot requires kernel modesetting. Intel
modesetting drivers should appear sometime before F11.

In comment #36, it should read "same error messages with
kernel-2.6.27.5-101.fc10"

With the new kernel, I still get a black screen and hang using XAA.
While EXA doesn't hang and I can login, I get screen corruption if using
Compiz (or any 3D app).

EXA is the default, as far as I can tell. So if the default case works
now, we can at least move this off the blocker list.

What error messages appear in Xorg.0.log if you're using XAA?

Screen corruption using Compiz/GL stuff is a separate bug - if it's font
corruption, perhaps it's bug 471537?

Server starts now even w/o xorg.conf but text display is heavily
corrupted. (KDE konsole, Firefox, etc) 
With no_accel there is no text corruption.

glxgears
[intel_init_bufmgr:592] Error initializing buffer manager.
668 frames in 5.0 seconds = 133.492 FPS

The corruption looks funny while typing: while typing the "The" at beginning
of this line the "Th" was cut about half vertically(only upper part shown) and
when I typed the "e" then the missing parts appeared.

will attach an image combined from three screen shots (KDE konqueror on
www.heise.de)

Thanks for your efforts,
Konrad

Xorg.0.log - comment #40

it is almost impossible to view this file in less or vi. about one third
of the lines is invisible and gets visible when you move the cursor
around vertically.

Yes, that looks just like bug 471537. Follow up there for the graphical
corruption problems.


Seems like X is starting up successfully now, and there's no mention of the 
original error message. Closing this bug.

Reopen *only* if X fails to start and the message "Couldn't bind memory
for BO front buffer" appears in Xorg.0.log.

I see this same problem with F10 release, on a Thinkpad T61 with Intel
Mobile GM965/GL960 (PCI vendor/ID 8086:2a03).

EXA vs XAA doesn't matter, and neither does the suggested Legacy3D; the only 
workaround I've found is Option "NoAccel" "yes" in xorg.conf. Same error from 
dmesg:
  ...
  [drm:i915_gem_object_pin] *ERROR* Failure to bind: -12
  ...

Same error from Xorg.0.log:
  ...
  (EE) intel(0): Failed to pin front buffer: Cannot allocate memory

  Fatal server error:
  Couldn't bind memory for BO front buffer

kernel-2.6.27.5-117.fc10.x86_64
xorg-x11-drv-i810-2.5.0-3.fc10.x86_64

(Additionally there's a failure when the X server crashes that seems to
disable all input, so X never exits cleanly and I can't switch to
another virtual terminal. All I can do is hit the power button to
cleanly reboot [i.e. the ACPI event seems to be handled properly].)
