    Solved Display sleeps immediately when dropping out of X

    This does not work for me unfortunately. My console and X have the same resolution and still my display goes to sleep. :confused:

    Solved Can't get the GNOME 3 desktop

    GNOME 3 absolutely requires a working libGL. Without working 3D acceleration, you will get the Something has gone wrong message.

    tracker-miner-fs giving core dump

    This is an issue with tracker-miner-fs, see issue #7 here. For now, you can add CFLAGS+=-O0 to the Makefile of sysutils/tracker-miners to fix it.

    Solved Display sleeps immediately when dropping out of X

    Hm, I have nothing connected to my laptop and the internal display shuts off. Do you have the same problem when there is no external display connected?

    Solved Display sleeps immediately when dropping out of X

    I am having the exact same issue with my ThinkPad P71. yuripv wrote here that he had no issue with 12.0-ALPHA9. Well, I tried 12.0-BETA3 and... I am still getting a black screen when exiting my X session. :confused:

    Lenovo P51

    I already enabled Discrete Graphics in the BIOS and X is working fine with my NVIDIA card. The problem I have is that I cannot return to the console nor can I log out from GNOME because GDM returns back to the console for this and then I get a black screen. I do not really need efifb but it...

    Lenovo P51

    I am experiencing a similar issue like hazz. kern.vty="sc" does not work as the display freezes as soon as the kernel is booting. These are the last lines I can see: Booting... Start @ 0xffffffff80310000 ... EFI framebuffer information: addr, size 0xa0000000, 0x21c0000 dimensions 3840...

    Starting GDM on NVIDIA results in black screen

    Disclaimer: Do not do it like this! Patch the Makefile of x11/nvidia-driver! You asked for it... # mv /usr/local/lib/libGL.so.1.2.0 /usr/local/lib/libGL.so.1.2.0.orig # cp /usr/local/lib/libGL-NVIDIA.so.1 /usr/local/lib/libGL.so.1.2.0 Again, it is extremely bad to do it like this. Thomas

    Starting GDM on NVIDIA results in black screen

    Thanks, I know that using xorg.conf is not how to do it. ;) I just quickly hacked the config file together for a first test. Still have not decided if I will use VirtualGL or just the NVIDIA card. If I use VirtualGL then I need another setup anyway to be able to start both X servers.

    Starting GDM on NVIDIA results in black screen

    Cannot really help you with your mouse issue but there are already several threads about mice not working, e.g. 47318 54244 64262 You might want to check them out. Meanwhile I was able to (temporarily) fix the segfault in tracker-miner-fs (not exactly X.Org-related but oh well). The issue has...

    Starting GDM on NVIDIA results in black screen

    That should work, yes.

    Starting GDM on NVIDIA results in black screen

    GNOME definitely needs OpenGL to work while I am pretty sure that Xfce does not. That is why Xfce starts even with the "incorrect" libGL.

    Starting GDM on NVIDIA results in black screen

    I strongly recommend that you do not do it like I did (because that was a quick & dirty hack) but check out 226403. You need to patch the Makefile of x11/nvidia-driver and rebuild the port, then it should work. I just replaced libGL.so.1.2.0 which is not how you should do it. ;)

    Starting GDM on NVIDIA results in black screen

    No, the screen is black like in Ctrl+Alt+Fn does not do anything, but the machine is still fully functional. Is not GDM restarted after a logout? This would more or less be the same like switching to the console from X which also results in a black screen. I think I will either try...

    NVMe controller problem

    Just for the record: Installing FreeBSD on a Samsung 970 Pro worked without any issues. So this problem indeed seems to be related to the Samsung 961 series. Thomas

    Is anybody running nvidia-driver and gnome 3.28 successfully?

    Thanks for the link, that is exactly what I figured out on my own today. ;) Just for testing I replaced libGL.so.1.2.0 from Mesa with the NVIDIA version to get GDM working (see my 67799). I will definitely give the Makefile patch a try! Regards Thomas

    Starting GDM on NVIDIA results in black screen

    Well, if you see this error message libGL error: No matching fbConfigs or visuals found in /var/log/gdm/:0-greeter.log then you are using the libGL library from Mesa instead from the NVIDIA driver. That is what I found out after some googling. ;) By the way, I attached the wrong file, I did not...

    Nvidia 1050ti + IntelHD 630

    The NVIDIA driver is unable to assign a connected display device because of Optimus. With Optimus (i.e. both integrated and discrete graphics adapter) enabled, the integrated graphics adapter (Intel HD Graphics 630 in your case) is controlling the display and the NVIDIA graphics adapter is just...

    Starting GDM on NVIDIA results in black screen

    Thanks for the reply, I do not have a secondary monitor configured so the position part does not apply. I have disabled the Composite extension but that did not change anything (except that I see in Xorg.0.log that the extension has been disabled). Still getting a black screen. Thomas Edit...
