kde4 or nvidia-driver problem

[imho]

Hi all,

I'm using FreeBSD-8.2 amd64 and KDE-4.6.4. It's a new installation. My card is a GeForce 7300 SE/7200 GS. (xorg.conf). I've installed the current nvidia-driver from ports: 270.41.19.

linux_enable="YES" is in rc.conf.
nvidia_load="YES"
machdep.disable_mtrrs="1" in loader.conf.

When kde4 is starting I can log in and then I see the hard drive, hammer and screwdriver and all start symbols but from the blue K I see only a blue fog. That's all, KDE4 stops.

No errors in Xorg.0.log. I test the newest nvidia-driver 275.09.07 -> same result. The nvidia kernel module is loaded. The nvidia-driver is compiled without FreeBSD-AGP.

dmesg | grep nvidia
nvidia0: <GeForce 7300 SE/7200 GS> on vgapci0
vgapci0: child nvidia0 requested pci_enable_busmaster
vgapci0: child nvidia0 requested pci_enable_io
vgapci0: child nvidia0 requested pci_enable_io
nvidia0: [ITHREAD]

When I use the nv driver then KDE4 starts normally. Don't know what the problem is, KDE4 or the nvidia-driver.

I put some files in the attachments. The xorg.conf file is generated via nvidia-xconfig.

Hope anyone can help.
Thanks.

Not related but don't use AllowEmptyInput in xorg.conf.

Your Xorg.0.log seems truncated, it doesn't look complete.

[imho]

Hey SirDice,

What you mean with AllowEmptyInput? There is not this entry in xorg.conf.

[DutchDaemon]

(WW) AllowEmptyInput is on, devices using drivers 'kbd', 'mouse' or 'vmmouse' will be disabled.
in your Xorg.0.log.

[imho]

I add in xorg.conf:

Section "ServerFlags"
Option "AllowEmptyInput" "off"
EndSection

After a reboot Xorg.0.log says:

tail -f /var/log/Xorg.0.log
(**) Option "Device" "/dev/sysmouse"
(==) PS/2 Mouse: Emulate3Buttons, Emulate3Timeout: 50
(**) PS/2 Mouse: ZAxisMapping: buttons 4 and 5
(**) PS/2 Mouse: Buttons: 9
(**) PS/2 Mouse: Sensitivity: 1
(II) XINPUT: Adding extended input device "PS/2 Mouse" (type: MOUSE)
(**) PS/2 Mouse: (accel) keeping acceleration scheme 1
(**) PS/2 Mouse: (accel) acceleration profile 0
(II) PS/2 Mouse: SetupAuto: hw.iftype is 4, hw.model is 0
(II) PS/2 Mouse: SetupAuto: protocol is SysMouse

That's all. Same problem. KDE4 dont start.

Here's the complete Xorg.0.log:

Maybe that helps.

Dbus and hald aren't running. Add to /etc/rc.conf:


dbus_enable="YES"
hald_enable="YES"

[imho]

Yes.
With the "nv" driver works KDE4.

[SirDice]

Yes.
No.
From your kdm-bin.log:


klauncher(1778) kdemain: No DBUS session-bus found. Check if you have started the DBUS server.
kdeinit4: Communication error with launcher. Exiting!
kdmgreet(1770)/kdecore (K*TimeZone*): KSystemTimeZones: ktimezoned initialize() D-Bus call failed: "Not connected to D-Bus server"

[imho]

Thats right but dbus and hald are loaded via rc.conf.
dbus_enable="YES"
hald_enable="YES"

[imho]

The question is why the connect to D-Bus failed. Which other output do you need?

Ok, I have deinstalled nvidia-driver 270.09.07. Downloaded and installed 260.19.44. -> It works. It is a problem with polkit-qt-0.99.

Thanks for help.
@DutchDaemon: sorry for bad formatting.

Now it's solved.
