[Solved] X + Ati = BlackScreen

I've been trying to set up my X server on a new install of Arch. I have an ATI X850XT graphics card and am trying to use the open source ATI driver however I've been having the same problem from ATI's own driver.

When I run startx I get a completely black screen and and unable to use the (Ctrl + Alt + Backspace) or the (Ctrl + Alt + F1) key combo's to get back to the console, and so have to restart.

I've included my xorg.conf and xorg.0.log files.

Thank you in advance for any help.

Re: [Solved] X + Ati = BlackScreen

I had exactly the same problem but with nvidia, added the following, problem solved smile
From a simple quick look, seems to me that just by adding this to your xorg.conf, your problem is gone

Section "ServerFlags"
   Option    "AllowMouseOpenFail" "True"
   Option    "AutoAddDevices" "False"
EndSection

If it's not solved, here's a couple things I'd do to your xorg.conf, add "True" on DPMS and remove BusID line

Section "Device"
...
...
    Option       "DPMS" "True"
    BusID        "PCI:1:0:0"

and on your screen section I'd just put this. If your monitor supports more resolutions, you can add them later.

Section "Screen"
    Identifier     "Screen0"
    Device         "Videocard1"
    Monitor        "Monitor0"
    DefaultDepth    24
    SubSection     "Display"
        Viewport    0 0
        Depth       24
        Modes      "1024x768" "800x600" "640x480"
    EndSubSection
EndSection

I don't have an ATI card, I have nvidia, and I didn't look at wiki on ATI here, so maybe some options might be missing or some might be there that shouldn't be, but I think that just by adding the Section "ServerFlags" your problems will be solved.
What those lines do is basicly what it says, not to auto add stuff, let it grab the configs from your xorg.conf and not automatic. If you notice on Xorg.log your keyboard and mouse are deactivated automatically, that's why you don't have them smile
btw, if your mouse still not work, you might wanna try change the "Protocol" to "IMPS/2" or "ExplorerPS/2" instead of "auto", and that "ZAxisMapping" shouldn't it be just "4 5"? not sure, just what I basicly see around the foruns.

Section "InputDevice"
...
    Option        "Protocol" "ExplorerPS/2"
...
EndSection

Well, try it out, gl!

edit: changed Device "Card0" to Device "Videocard1" since that's the identifier on your xorg.conf. Card0 is usually default

Re: [Solved] X + Ati = BlackScreen

I did the changes as advised and it does seem to have got the starting of Xserver to move on a bit by the looks of the log file.
It is now ending by stoping output to the monitor all together and again needs to be rebooted before doing any thing.

Thanks again.

Re: [Solved] X + Ati = BlackScreen

I fixed my ati woes by loading the ddc module to probe the monitor. In xorg.conf, try adding the following:

Section "Module"

    Load  "ddc"
    Load  "glx"

and

Section "Device"

    Identifier  "ati"
    Driver      "radeon"
    Option      "XAANoOffscreenPixmaps" "true"
    Option      "AGPMode" "4"
    Option      "ColorTiling" "on"

Re: [Solved] X + Ati = BlackScreen

I've tried adding that but sadly it made no change. Also the card is PCI-E so I tried it with and without that AGP setting just to see.

Re: [Solved] X + Ati = BlackScreen

I found this in a release announce for Ubuntu 9.04 Alpha. Arch uses X.Org 1.6 as well...

the new X.Org Server 1.6 still doesn't support the proprietary ATI driver.

Re: [Solved] X + Ati = BlackScreen

The version listed in the repository is version 1.5.3-4....

I might be really missing some obvious there, if so how would I install the old version

Re: [Solved] X + Ati = BlackScreen

it doesn't really matter.  i am going to try the HD drivers instead of the catalyst sometime soon.  Since ATI Catalyst isnt being supported anymore here.  Plus now i am angry because Nvidia's gpu video processor was implemented into FFmpeg .5.  So Buying my new card from ATI was kind of pointless.

Re: [Solved] X + Ati = BlackScreen

I'm in a hurry right now, and no time to check on http://wiki.archlinux.org/index.php/ATI , saw this on your log tho:

drmOpenDevice: node name is /dev/dri/card0
drmOpenDevice: open result is -1, (No such device or address)
drmOpenDevice: open result is -1, (No such device or address)
drmOpenDevice: Open failed

edit: I had some unuseful information here, about the card identifier name, but it was ilogical, since the identifier name has nothing to do with the directories, and linux is case sensitive, wich means Card0 is not card0.

noticed this tho:
On the word "XAANoOffscreenPixmaps", notice the letter 's' from screen and the letter 'm' from maps, you have it capital 'S' and capital 'M' on your xorg.conf, but it should be like this:

Section "Device"
...
    Option        "XAANoOffscreenPixmaps" "true"
...

I've changed that and sadly still no progress just keeps cutting of output to the monitor.

It just seems really strange that I am getting no error message and yet still having a problem....

Re: [Solved] X + Ati = BlackScreen

I had the time to check on wiki ATI and a couple more sites, got intrigued, and noticed I had a Radeon 9500 here, which uses the same driver version as your X850 and as chmoder's radeon 9650, which is the 'r300_dri.so', you can see that here http://dri.freedesktop.org/wiki/ATIRadeon, so I got my hands on work, and made a fresh Arch install, xorg and ati open driver. It all worked well, so let's try to put yours working also wink

First, make sure your user is on the 'video' group. You can check that by doing

$ id  or $ grep username /etc/group  or $ grep video /etc/group

If you're not on that group, than log as root and add it with

$ gpasswd -a username video

Second, make sure you don't have catalyst drivers installed, you can check by doing:

$ pacman -Qs catalyst

if you have, remove them with:

$ pacman -Rsn catalyst
$ pacman -Rsn catalyst-utils

Now, about the steps I made, you might wanna make a backup of your xorg.conf and follow them also. When using pacman, if it says your version is up to date, and want to reinstall, you can just say no.

Just installed Arch, configured locales and added a user, and I'm gonna install Xorg now, then open driver, then hwd, make xorg.conf, test!
1. Xorg

root$ pacman -S xorg
root$ pacman -S xf86-input-evdev
root$ pacman -S mesa

2. Open Driver

root$ pacman -S libgl
root$ pacman -S xf86-video-ati

3. hwd

root$ pacman -S hwd
root$ hwd -u

4. .xinitrc as user:

user$ cp /etc/skel/.xinitrc ~/
user$ nano ~/.xinitrc

add 'exec xterm' to look like this. Save and exit.

...
#Executed by startx (run your window manager from here)
exec xterm
# exec gnome-session
...

Remember that only one exec type.of.session can be uncommented. And instead of nano, you might wanna use your editor of preference.

5. last step before xorg.conf as root:

root$ depmod -a
root$ reboot

Just to make sure all dependencies are correct, and to make sure we get all loaded correctly.

6. xorg.conf
6.1.

root$ hwd -s
root$ hwd -e
root$ hwd -u
root$ hwd -xa

Your new xorg.conf is made. but before test, let's check a couple things.

6.2.

root$ nano /etc/X11/xorg.conf

change driver to 'radeon'

Section "Device"
...
    Driver      "radeon"
...

and check on it if you have these lines there, if not, add them:

Section "ServerFlags"
    Option "AllowMouseOpenFail"  "true"
    Option "AutoAddDevices" "False"
EndSection

Save and exit.
exit root.

6.3.and we're ready for a very rough,basic,to the ground test. login as user:

user$ xinit

If all went well, you should be with your black screen, a white square, a black movable cross, and a keyboard that types smile
If it didn't go well, do:

root$ grep EE /var/log/Xorg.0.log
root$ grep WW /var/log/Xorg.0.log

EE to see what Errors were reported, and WW to see the Warnings, but errors are main concern.

6.4.Assuming all went well, it's time to add some things to the xorg.conf.
Log as root and work on it:

root$ nano /etc/X11/xorg.conf

In Section "Module". if not there, add:

Section "Module"
...
    Load  "glx"
    Load  "dri"
    Load  "drm"
    Load  "extmod"
    Load  "dbe"
    Load  "freetype"
...
EndSection

In Section "Monitor" clean everything under DPMS "true", to look something like this:

Section "Monitor"
    Identifier "Monitor0"
    Option "DPMS" "true"
EndSection

In Section "Device", add options if not there:

Section "Device"
    Identifier  "Card0"
    Driver      "radeon"
    Option      "EnablePageFlip" "1"
    Option      "GARTSize" "64"
    Option        "DRI" "true"
EndSection

In Section "Screen" you can let it be like it is, or clean it a bit to look something like this:

Section "Screen"
    Identifier "Screen0"
    Device     "Card0"
    Monitor    "Monitor0"
    DefaultColorDepth 24
    SubSection "Display"
        Depth     24
        Modes "1024x768" "800x600" "640x480"
    EndSubSection
EndSection

Add section extensions:

Section "Extensions"
    Option    "Composite" "Enable"
EndSection

Check if you have Section "DRI", if you have or not, put it as simple as this:

Section "DRI"
    Mode 0666
EndSection

Save and exit.
exit root.

And it's time to test again your xorg.conf.
Log as user:

user$ xinit

6.5.In that white window, do the following:

user$ glxinfo | grep direct

it should say "direct rendering: Yes".
and a small test on frames

user$ glxgears

let it work a bit, and hit ctrl+c to break it. Check results.

And that's it, your xorg is working.
You should backup now, for example as 'xorgconf.good', so you know you have a good working xorg.conf in case something happens, and also the Xorg.0.log so you might compare.
And now you can play a bit with your xorg.conf, and tweak it to your liking smile

In case you wanna check, I'll leave here my 1st rough,basic,to the ground xorg.conf and log, and 2 other a bit more cleaner, but still with stuff that can be taken out.
rough,basic,to the ground - rough.xorg.conf   rough.xorg.log
cleaned 1 - clean.1.xorg.conf   clean.1.xorg.log
cleaned 2 - clean.2.xorg.conf   clean.2.xorg.log

Have fun, and good luck! smile

Re: [Solved] X + Ati = BlackScreen

I decided to reinstall arch and follow  your guide to the letter.

I got up to the first start of Xserver and have hit the same problem. Interestingly it hasn't made a log file for me to look at... Am not sure quite why that would be though.

Re: [Solved] X + Ati = BlackScreen

I think I have/had the exact same problem you do.
See my post at http://bbs.archlinux.org/viewtopic.php?id=64781

I have found two work-arounds for this, none of which are very satisfying:

1) Downgrade the kernel to 2.6.27

2) Add the option acpi=off in the 'kernel'-line of your /boot/grub/menu.lst
I don't know what this exactly does, or what consequences it may have,
all I can see is that my computer doesn't die anymore.

Re: [Solved] X + Ati = BlackScreen

Thankyou so much! This sorted it and I am now posting this from the machine it's self.

Any idea why that fixes it, I don't want to question a good thing just curious.

Re: [Solved] X + Ati = BlackScreen

Congratz on your Arch powered functioning machine smile

About ACPI, taken from the kernel documentation:

ACPI Options
These options control parameters that the Advanced Configuration and Power Interface (ACPI) subsystem can use.
ACPI subsystem options: acpi=[force|off|noirq|ht|strict]
...

Well, now I got curious about kernel options, since it can give you some more control on how your hardware performs. Very good in cases of troubleshooting, where most basic/default situations fail, just like your case.

Off to some reading tongue
