Intel HD - disable framebuffer

Hello!

Guys, i would like ask for an advice. I'm trying to disable framebuffer for Intel HD graphic (from Pentium B 960 processor), i read wiki, www but cant find the right answer or approach in order to do this. I added, accordingly to wiki this

nomodeset i915.modeset=0

to

/etc/default/grub/

but this does not work in my opinion because this command

 ls -l /dev/fb*

shows that i have enabled framebuffer

ls -l /dev/fb*
crw-rw---- 1 root video 29, 0 05-08 17:22 /dev/fb0

I also uncommented from grub this

# Uncomment to use basic console
GRUB_TERMINAL_INPUT=console

Could somebody tell my what im doing wrong? Thank you.

Re: Intel HD - disable framebuffer

The framebuffer is not the same as kms.
This sounds a lot like an xy-problem. What are you actually trying to achieve?

Re: Intel HD - disable framebuffer

It will sound stupid, but i'm trying to find why Star Wars Knight Of The Old Republic II does not work. I own two copies, one from GOG and one from Steam. The Steam version launched via Steam client installed with Playonlinux and Wine works correctly, also Steam version runs correctly under Windows and what more, native version for Linux published few years ago for native Steam linux client also works. Unfortunately GOG version does not work under Arch, Playonlinux, Wine...and even Windows. Over the net the solution is to disable framebuffer.

I find something regarding framebuffer. When i added

 i915.modeset=0

this command

 ls -l /dev/fb*

gave me an output that there is no screen, so i thought that framebuffer was disabled but with it..i could not login, there was no SDDM greeter. When i deleted i915.modeset=1, and reboot i saw sddm greeter, could log in.

Re: Intel HD - disable framebuffer

Over the net the solution is to disable framebuffer.

That makes no sense whatsoever. So I did a quick search, what I've found is talk about an in-game feature called "frame buffer effects". It has nothing to to with the linux framebuffer. It's a setting in the game itself, it provides some graphical effects, and apparently this doesn't work on modern graphic cards. But again, this is something completely different from the linux framebuffer.

Re: Intel HD - disable framebuffer

+1
Moreover w/o kms you won't get a graphical displayer server itfp (as you figured, that's why sddm failed and it's completely expectable)

There might be some after-effects relying on framebuffer reads (rather than using framebuffer objects) what kinda works (or at least used to work couple of years ago, not tried since ages) on the nvidia blob but is terribly slow to outright broken on mesa.

Re: Intel HD - disable framebuffer

Thank you for replies. About in-game framebuffer, that's another funny thing. Steam version allows me to enable/disable it, while option in GOG version of the game is greyed out. I read that if its greyed out than there is no framebuffer on this machine, but i thing that is some garbage saying from not os and tech people.

Re: Intel HD - disable framebuffer

Yeah, no - everything fine here (no VESA + sw rendering etc.)

What if you ditch xf86-video-intel (you'll be using the modesetting driver on top of i915 then)?

Re: Intel HD - disable framebuffer

Ok, i could try, uninstall it but if i remember correctly, adding nomodeset and i915.modeset=0 to grub would finish with not being able to log into graphical env, right? Maybe i don't understand something here.

Re: Intel HD - disable framebuffer

Yes, don't deactivate modesetting - X11 or wayland won't work w/o kms.

If you wipe xf86-video-intel, X11 will "resort" to a generic modesetting driver that relies on the kernel module (and kms) for most stuff - it's worth a try (though it's impossible to say what's going on w/ the game from a distance)

Re: Intel HD - disable framebuffer

Thank you for replies. About in-game framebuffer, that's another funny thing. Steam version allows me to enable/disable it, while option in GOG version of the game is greyed out. I read that if its greyed out than there is no framebuffer on this machine, but i thing that is some garbage saying from not os and tech people.

You could have a look at the raw config files (of the game) and see if it's really disabled. I remember having some trouble with KOTOR on Windows where I had to disable all the fancy effects to make it not crash all the time.

Just to be clear: this GOG version is a Windows binary you're running using Wine right? So it's not native? (if it's native, you could try running it in the steam runtime, see here)
