Did poulsbo die to anyone?

qbit · 2011-04-13 11:24:10

This morning I rebooted my netbook, and I discovered that the driver of my gma500 (xorg-x11-drv-psb from AUR) doesn't work anymore. Probably in these days I upgraded one or more times the system, before this morning's reboot.
Another strange thing: for the first time two-finger scrolling is enabled in my touchpad. It never worked and now it works without any additional c.onfiguration... maybe I made a kernel update?
Anyway, this is the error:

Anyone could help me? :(

yes, poulsbo die in each kernel update. And AUR package don't compile.
I guess it compile if downgrade kernel, kernel headers and xorg headers.

Inxsible · 2011-04-13 17:53:37

qbit, please use code tags as opposed to quote tags. The code tags provide nice scrollers which help in keeping the thread to a decent length.

I have edited your post for you this time.

qbit · 2011-04-13 17:58:13

Inxsible: yes, sorry, it was my first post, it will not happen anymore
Perberos: the problem is that i rebooted my system and i don't have the old packages of kernel, headers and xorg
WHere can i find them?

Inxsible · 2011-04-13 18:00:47

unless you cleared your cache, you previously installed packages should still be under /var/cache/pacman/pkg

I already checked into package cache directory, i found old version of kernel and kernel headers, but there is only last version of xorg-server (11/04/2011 is the date, 1.10.0.902 is the version), I don't know why... and probably the package that causes the problem is xorg (last version of kernel was upgraded at 30/03, and i'm almost sure that I rebooted many times without problems).
P.S. I know that my english is not perfect, sorry for that!

is there some place in which i can download it?

The update of the kernel appends monday I think ...

See this topic : https://bbs.archlinux.org/viewtopic.php?id=78719&p=16
You are not the only one ^^

I have also installed an older kernel (kernel26-2.6.37.5-1 - kernel26-headers-2.6.37.5-1), no other choise :-(
You can find old packages here : http://arm.konnichi.com/core/os/i686/
http://arm.konnichi.com/core/os/i686/ke … pkg.tar.xz
http://arm.konnichi.com/core/os/i686/ke … pkg.tar.xz
(wiki for that : https://wiki.archlinux.org/index.php/Do … g_Packages)

Hope it can help you !

I needed packages of xorg, and not kernel, but thanks a lot, because in that site i found at "extra" section what i was looking for!
Now I downgraded and things work, I hope that the problem will be completely solved as soon as possible...

Maybe I am lucky. I just installed arch and had never even heard of poulsbo. win7 was on here.
Installed from livecd and ran the update and followed the steps and I get

_ScrnInfoRec has no member named pixmapPrivate

when building xorg-x11-drv-psb

I may just start over and install from livecd but not do an update but I don't know where it will
take me. I had tried chakra and graphics worked but was slow even though it "looked" fine.

Anthony Bentley · 2011-04-22 02:49:05

Calling it “dead” implies it was ever really alive in the first place. The Poulsbo driver has always been second‐class on Unix.

I would stick to vesa and look into a new laptop / graphics card. I don’t see the driver situation improving anytime soon.
