[SOLVED] Issue with second monitor on awesomeWM after recent upgrade

I am using a laptop with a dock connected to two monitors and use awesomeWM (the awesome-git package on AUR). They worked fine until yesterday when I ran a pacman update. Now, when I set them up to be two monitors next to eachother (with xrandr), one of them is just black, except that the mouse cursor shows on it, but nothing else. Moving windows there make them disappear. If I play around with the resolution and positioning I sometimes get it to show some of the taskbar and background, but no windows. It is simply bugged. If I clone the display, it shows fine on both monitors. If I revert to the arch awesome package, it works, but my config isn't written for that version of awesomeWM.

Steps I have tried:
- Running it with an empty config
- Recompiling the awesome-git package
- Downgrading all pacman packages to 2024-09-06, and recompiling awesome-git

I am not sure how to debug this, so any help would be appreciated.

Re: [SOLVED] Issue with second monitor on awesomeWM after recent upgrade

This sounds way more related to some compositor (picom?) than a WM (awesome)?
Does killing the compositor "fix" it and does restarting it not break it again?

Re: [SOLVED] Issue with second monitor on awesomeWM after recent upgrade

You are correct! Yes, killing picom did fix it, and starting it again also worked. Thank you soooo much!

Edit: I used the picom-git package, but have changed to using just picom. I can't remember why I switched to the -git package back then.

Re: [SOLVED] Issue with second monitor on awesomeWM after recent upgrade

No problem w/ the repo package?
The problem would have been that picom failed to resize the GL context (assuming you're running the GL backend) - make sure there's no wider issue w/ your GL stack: notably if you've xf86-video-intel installed there probably is.

Re: [SOLVED] Issue with second monitor on awesomeWM after recent upgrade

Thank you for the heads up! There wasn't any issues raised on the picom github at least.

Now I am getting into territory where I am don't know much. I do have xf86-video-intel installed though. Is there anything I should to do about that?

Re: [SOLVED] Issue with second monitor on awesomeWM after recent upgrade

Probably remove it - please post your Xorg log, https://wiki.archlinux.org/title/Xorg#General so I can tell you haw bad it currently is wink

Re: [SOLVED] Issue with second monitor on awesomeWM after recent upgrade

I tried uninstalling it, but then the login screen (lightdm) didn't show anymore, just a black screen with a mouse cursor, so I added it back in. Btw, I have an 8th generation Intel CPU.

I made a gist with the logs: https://gist.github.com/Irubataru/68544 … ae6ff58f80

Also, thank you for going through the trouble of looking at this for me. You really don't have to, but I very much appreciate it ^^

Re: [SOLVED] Issue with second monitor on awesomeWM after recent upgrade

grep -ri intel /{etc,usr/share}/X11/xorg.conf*

You've a config referencing it in there and

[    32.147] (EE) AIGLX error: dlopen of /usr/lib/dri/i965_dri.so failed (/usr/lib/dri/i965_dri.so: cannot open shared object file: No such file or directory)

[    32.184] (II) IGLX: Loaded and initialized swrast

want to get rid of that and the driver w/ a UHD Graphics 620 - currently you're running CPU emulation.

Re: [SOLVED] Issue with second monitor on awesomeWM after recent upgrade

Hmm, the grep reported nothing about intel in the Xorg config. It's just synaptics configuration.

I booted after uninstalling xf86-video-intel, and I get a black screen, and the following Xorg log: https://gist.github.com/Irubataru/879ab … a0faff7dc2

Re: [SOLVED] Issue with second monitor on awesomeWM after recent upgrade

Looks unsuspicious - how black is the screen? Do you see a cursor?
nb. that the output names change with the driver, if you've some randr script in place to disable all but a specific output or sth. like that, it'll no longer match.

Can you switch the VT and run "DISPLAY=:0 xrandr -q" there? Is any output active?

Re: [SOLVED] Issue with second monitor on awesomeWM after recent upgrade

Hiya!

Yes, I have a cursor, but nothing else. Once it showed  one of the boot messages is the background as well with the cursor on top

[ OK ] Authorization manager started

or something like that. It wasn't that exact message.

When I switched to a different VT and checked xrandr I got the following error

Authorization required, but no authorization protocol specified

Can't open display :0

I tried starting lightdm directly from the VT, and that worked. I got the login screen, and I am writing this message without xf86-video-intel installed now. I also tried restarting the lightdm service, but that did not work.

Re: [SOLVED] Issue with second monitor on awesomeWM after recent upgrade

So lightdm fails, can be started but not be restarted?
I'd suspect sth. around https://wiki.archlinux.org/title/LightD … TTY_output

Re: [SOLVED] Issue with second monitor on awesomeWM after recent upgrade

I have been testing some more things. I tried disconnecting the laptop from the dock and boot it like that, and there it works for some reason.

Setting the lightdm parameter did nothing unfortunately.

Also, I never mentioned that when it shows a black screen with a cursor, the cursor only shows on one monitor, and I can't move it to the other, as if they are running different sessions.

I also tried using SDDM instead, and that had other problems (flickering, and it starting separate instances on separate monitors).

Re: [SOLVED] Issue with second monitor on awesomeWM after recent upgrade

Oh, it's a mouse cursor??

The xorg log from #9 has three outputs, the laptop panel a samsug and an ACR monitor (looks like displayport daisychained)
The eDP offers an insane

[    26.028] (II) modeset(0): Modeline "15360x8640"x60.0  11669.25  15360 16824 18560 21760  8640 8643 8648 8938 -hsync +vsync (536.3 kHz d)

resolution, your laptop doesn't have a 15360x8640 panel, does it?

Otoh the intel-driven log in #7 doesn't have a laptop panel at all?

As for the xrandr error, try

export DISPLAY=:0
xhost +
xrandr -q

Also please explain what outputs you actually expect to see in this situation.

For xf86-video-intel at least add https://wiki.archlinux.org/title/Intel_ … ecent_GPUs

Re: [SOLVED] Issue with second monitor on awesomeWM after recent upgrade

Sorry, I thought I wrote that, but I must have just written cursor.

Yeah, the laptop display definitely do not have those resolutions.

If I run the xrandr command from a VT I get the same permission denied as last time. When logged in the eDP-1 shows a long list of unreasonable resolutions. Before uninstalling x86-intel it used to show it  as "disabled", saying it had no modes. Now it shows all of these. I also tried setting the modset drivers (https://wiki.archlinux.org/title/Intel_ … ing_driver), and that removed the errors of not being able to find intel etc in the Xorg log, but otherwise did nothing.

When I boot the laptop undocked I just expect it to show on the laptop monitor. When I boot the laptop docked (with the laptop lid closed), I expect to see the login screen on both the DP monitors. Or one of them, doesn't really matter as long as they are both working when I log in.

Re: [SOLVED] Issue with second monitor on awesomeWM after recent upgrade

When I boot the laptop docked (with the laptop lid closed)

Can you boot the system docked w/o the lid closed?

The intel driver probably has a quirk providing a sanity check or so against the bogus edid from the eDP.

Whether on xf86-video-intel or the modesetting driver, but booting w/ the lid closed

for OUT in /sys/class/drm/card*; do echo $OUT; edid-decode $OUT/edid; echo "================="; done

You'll need https://aur.archlinux.org/packages/edid-decode-git

The best idea I'd have against this (fixing xf86-video-intel to use the iris driver aside) is to dump the sane edid from the opened lid and inject that: https://wiki.archlinux.org/title/Kernel … s_and_EDID


that removed the errors of not being able to find intel etc

Those are generally harmless.

Re: [SOLVED] Issue with second monitor on awesomeWM after recent upgrade

I think you are on to something!

If I boot it with the lid open, everything works. One issue is that if I then turn off the display and close the lid, then lock the screen and try to unlock, the login still shows on the closed laptop screen, but I have a feeling that this is something I can fix with a display script in lightdm.

Here is the edid log when booting with a closed laptop lid (it's a different dock and different monitors btw, same behaviour)

It's the same when I boot with a closed lid. It's a different dock and different monitors btw, same behaviour though.

The "Manufacturer-Specified Display Descriptor" looks like bogus garbage.

Here is the edid log when booting with a closed laptop lid … It's the same when I boot with a closed lid.

Ok, but what about an opened lid?
You basically want to get a sane edid out of the system that you can then inject and won't have to rely on the junk reported when the panel is closed (I'm not sure how long xf86-video-intel will remain a viable options, iris driver or not)

Re: [SOLVED] Issue with second monitor on awesomeWM after recent upgrade

Sorry, it seems I keep writing the wrong thing. The second one was when booting with the lid open and the laptop docked.

Here is the log from lid open and laptop undocked

It seems that the entry fro eDP-1 is the same regardless.

By the way, I haven't reinstalled x86-video-intel, and everything seems to work fine except for the boot issues with the lid closed.
