Problem in Xorg configuration : No screen found

A

Artaxerxes

Hi,

I'm installing freeBSD fro the very first time and I please need help.

I'm experiencing trouble trying to configure and run Xorg.

*** FreeBSD ***

I've installed FreeBSD 12.1-RELEASE and I'm now configuring it.

*** Hardware configuration ***

I'm using a Asus laptop computer, the UX305F's model.
It runs with a Intel 5300 HD graphic card.

% pciconf -lv

vgapci0@pci0:0:2:0: class=0x030000 card=0x181d1043 chip=0x161e8086 rev=0x09 hdr=0x00
vendor = 'Intel Corporation'
device = 'HD Graphics 5300'
class = display
subclass = VGA


*** Actual configuration ***

- user added to group "video"
- drm-kmod package installed.
- i915drm.ko modules added to sysrc.conf sysrc kld_list+="/boot/modules/i915kms.ko"
- According to the handbook (https://www.freebsd.org/doc/en_US.ISO8859-1/books/handbook/x-config.html), no configuration files set up in xorg.conf.d.
- xfce installed. (the command used was : pkg install xorg xfce xfce4-goodies xfce4-mixer xfce4-volumed xf86-video-intel file-roller dbus)
- Computer restarted (many times)


*** Issue ***

When I try to use commands such as "startx", "startxfce" or "Xorg -configure" I get the same error message :

Fatal server error:
(EE) no screens found(EE)

Then startx exits.

Hi T-Daemon,

thanks for your answer.

I remove the package (using the command : "sudo pkg remove xf86-video-intel") but I still have the same error message.

Please find below the new log file. It seems that Xorg now looks for the missing "intel_drv" and triggers an error. Is that ok ?

  • "Not automatically adding GPU devices" -- move all files out of /usr/local/etc/X11/xorg.conf.d/
  • Does the screen resolution change during the boot process (when the i915kms.ko is loaded)? AFAICS, your GPU should be supported.
  • Please post the output of grep -i drm /var/run/dmesg.boot.
  • 1st we must make shure the DRM KMS kernel module detects your GPU and supplies the necessary interfaces.
  • Yes, the advantage of deinstalling the intel(4) driver: the Xserver will pick the graphics driver automagically without configuration. You can install it again later, when X starts ok with the default modesetting framebuffer driver.
  • Maybe sysrc kld_list+=" acpi_asus acpi_asus_wmi" helps. You can kldload(8) them now without reboot.
  • Later, when you got X11 working: in rare cases, it helps to put Option "ReprobeOutputs" "yes" into /usr/local/etc/X11/xorg.conf.d/intel.conf (create it). The intel(4) man page tells: Please do file a bug for any circumstances which require this workaround.
  • You may want to deinstall the full-blown Xorg package & install x11/xorg-minimal instead, if you have small storage. Of course this is not related to your genuine issue.
 
Hi Mjollnir,

Thanks for your answer and your concern.

*** move all files out of /usr/local/etc/X11/xorg.conf.d/ ***

A file called intel.conf remained there. It deleted it. I tought all the Xconf files were in /usr/local/share/X11/xorg.conf.d/. Thanks for info.

*** GPU support ***

I didn't mentionned it before, but I try a live iso of a FreeBSD (GhostBSD) derivative to check the hardware compatibility to FreeBSD. Everything was ok and I had a MATE DE perfectly working and a screen with the right resolution. I'll have a look at xorg.log on GhostBSD.

*** grep -i drm /var/run/dmesg.boot ***
Code: 
info: [drm] Initialized drm 1.1.0 20060810
info: [drm] Initialized drm 1.1.0 20060810
info: [drm] Initialized drm 1.1.0 20060810


*** sysrc kld_list+=" acpi_asus acpi_asus_wmi" ***

I kldload them and the Xorg error message changed to :

Code: 
Fatal server error
(EE) Cannot run in framebuffer mode. Please specify busIDs for all framebuffer devices

Thus, the Xorg.log.0 output is now different.

*** Option "ReprobeOutputs" "yes" ***

I created a /usr/local/etc/X11/xorg.conf.d/intel.conf file containing

Code: 
Section "Device"
Option "ReprobeOutputs" "YES"
EndSection

I didn't notice any change.
 
(EE) open /dev/dri/card0: No such file or directory: Your DRM KMS kernel modules did not load ok.
That file /usr/local/etc/X11/xorg.conf.d/intel.conf should contain a line to load the graphics driver:

You can also rename it video.conf or gpu.conf or device.conf (since it's the Device section). And since the intel driver is not installed, it wouldn't succeed. Move it e.g. to your home.

Mjollnir,

so I reinstalled xf86-video-intel and created a /usr/local/etc/X11/xorg.conf.d/intel.conf as you described it.

But now It seems like I'm back to initial situation. The intel driver seems to be loaded correctly but there's still the "(EE) no screens found(EE)" and the WM won't launch.

Do you have any idea please ?

On my side, I'll
- Reinstall FreeBSD. Maybe I've changed too many files and a fresh install might help.
- Have a look at the GhostBSD config, installed packages and log files. The DE (MATE) launches correctly with GhostBSD, so maybe there's some good piece of information relies in it.

Hi Alexander,

thanks for your answser.

I reinstalled the xf86-video-intel package

If I change the /usr/local/etc/X11/xorg.conf.d/intel.conf conf to "Driver "modesetting"" or If I remove this file to let modesetting load the correct driver, startx remains unable to launch.

Please find below the last part of Xorg.log.0

Any idea please ?
 
mjollnir , Alexander88207 ,

As said earlier, I try the GhostBSD live distro and Xorg works fine on it.

I checked the Xorg.0.log generated on GhostBSD and there's a module called "scfb" which is loaded by Xorg before modesetting. Do you think it can be revelant to install it ?

Is there anything useful in this log please ?
