unable to set the resolution + bad slow referesh

B

behzad

I am not able to set the resolution to "1366x768" (which is the correct value according to my linux and windows installations), and besides that the screen looks very ugly and it is very slow in refreshing,

The Xorg.0.log says

Code: 
(II) VESA(0): Monitor0: Using hsync value of 47.41 kHz
(II) VESA(0): Monitor0: Using vrefresh value of 60.01 Hz
(II) VESA(0): Not using mode "1366x768" (no mode of this name)

I have no idea if this is a driver problem or a configuration problem. I am attaching both Xorg.0.log and xorg.conf in case it's helpful.

Thanks, but how should I apply these patches? Can you help me out here because I am new to bsd FreeBSD. So I did [cmd=]git clone git://anongit.freedesktop.org/xorg/proto/dri2proto[/cmd] and I did the same for the other packages, and applied the mentioned patch.

Yet there is no configure file inside the folders but configure.ac and autogen.sh. Should I just run autogen.sh?

P.S. 1- I cannot find any ab10008 for xf86-video-intel. This is very ambiguous to me.
P.S. 2- I am working with freebsd FreeBSD 9, if that matters.

I did

Code: 
# svn co https://trillian.chruetertee.ch/svn/ports/branches/xorg-dev
# wget http://people.freebsd.org/~miwi/xorg/xorgmerge

# chmod u+x xorgmerge
# ./xorgmerge

# portupgrade -a

but nothing changed!

Is there anything so obvious to do that is not mentioned on http://miwi.bsdcrew.de/2011/02/cft-xorg-7-5-miwi1-freebsd-edition/ and I am missing it?

I am attaching Xorg.0.log, it has a line which says
Code: 
(WW) VGA arbiter: cannot open kernel arbiter, no multi-card support"

Does it mean there is anything wrong in the configuration?

Again thanks, I missed that line,

However, now the problem is that xf86-video-intel does not compile.

I did a fresh install of FreeBSD, and applied above patch before installing anything, still when I want to install X11/xorg, xf86-video-intel does not compile.

This is what I get

I am confused in here. Some threads and posts claim that intel drivers do not yet work in FreeBSD and one needs to stick to vesa drivers which work dismally. Then we have got http://wiki.freebsd.org/Intel_GPU patch and stuff which at least in my case they don't work either.

Can somebody explain for me what is the status of intel graphics (particularity i915) in FreeBSD 9? Is it going to change any time soon? What are the options for someone who has got i915?

P.S. I tried to install xf86-video-intel29 but that didn't compile either.

Did you try install with pkg_add ?

It will install, but then it will not work. Running

# Xorg -configure

will produce some errors, among them that WindowTable is undeclared (or unknown?!)
