xorg for i915 chipset


Has anyone had any luck getting 3D with the new sonoma chipset? I have loaded the i915 module and set it to be used in xorg.conf but can't get it working. I've also tried with the i810 module but get an error saying:

I'm using xorg 6.8.2 on Arch linux

I would suggest that you try UBUNTU or KUBUNTU.
I have tried UBUNTU and now KUBUNTU on my Inspiron 6000(with i915 chipset).
3D works on both without any additional setup.

I'm not sure if anyone is still reading this old post, but I'm still replying in the hope that someone that was in the same situation as me can solve his problem.

My i915GM (Dell Inspiron 6000) wasn't working at all with the i810 driver and I couldn't watch movies with the default vesa driver.
After much time and research, I finally got the DRM and i915 snapshots from dri.freedekstop.org and compiled them. Now everything works like a treat and I get 100+ fps with glxgear in fullscreen (The acceleration is buildin in the driver).


Hope that helps someone,

It is not the dist problem, it is releated to the system kernel, maybe you dist's kernel is not support then you can't use it, but you can upgrade your kernel of your system to support more hardware and more stable.

I'm using kernel 2.6.11.11. You need to compile i810 and i915 support in it. Then you can load the i915 module (modprobe i915). If it doesn't work, it means you haven't compiled the module.
Then you just need the dri drivers that I mentioned previously and do "./install.sh" as root (if I remember well).

R4cOOn,

Do you have any idea of what to do for Suse 9.3 where X.org is used instead of XFree86?

Doesn't work for me.

I'm running Slackware 10.1 on an Acer Aspire 1690.
Self compiled kernel 2.6.12.2 (with i915 selected as module)
Xorg 6.8.2
Grabbed the snapshots for drm and i915 from dri.freedesktop.org and installed

But I get no joy.

There are no errors in my Xorg.0.log file

xdriinfo gives me the following
Xlib: extension "XFree86-DRI" missing on display "0.0".
Screen 0: Not direct rendering capable.

also, I've noticed that the

Section "DRI"
Mode 0666
EndSection

part of my xorg.conf file gets ignored since /dev/dri/card0 has 0660 permissions. Seems like udev might have been overriding stuff.

I'm used to nvidia which is painless and simple to work with, by my old laptop got stollen and this seemed like a sweet deal. Turns out it's a lot of grief. I can't even watch a DVD on this thing right now.

Hi !

I have problem with i915 too..

Does dri change something in xvideo - (watching movies - xvinfo :

X-Video Extension version 2.2
screen #0
no adaptors present

In mplayer "-vo xv" etc. are not working, only "-vo x11" is working, and if I want fullscreen I have to type mplayer -vo x11 -zoom, then I have fullscreen.. I don't like this.. ;[ ) ?

If yes then great, if not, what can I do to "normally" watching movies ?


So.. I'm trying to install dri..

I downloaded latest dri (i915-20050718-linux.i386.tar.bz2), everything is compiling well, but I can't insert module.. ;[

from dri.log :
FATAL: Error inserting i915 (/lib/modules/2.6.12.3/kernel/drivers/char/drm/i915.ko): Unknown symbol in module, or unknown parameter (see dmesg)

I'm trying myself (modprobe i915) - the same.. ;[

dmesg :

kobject_register failed for drm (-17)
[<c0275c6b>] kobject_register+0x6b/0x80
[<c0133ba1>] mod_sysfs_setup+0x51/0xc0

[<c01031e5>] syscall_call+0x7/0xb
i915: Unknown symbol drm_cleanup_pci


Slackware 10.1, Linux 2.6.12.3 (config :
CONFIG_DRM_I915=y - is it wrong ?)

Will dri help me in transparency ? Because now it doesn't look good.. everything is slow when I'll run transparency (xorg 6.8.2)..


What can I do ? ;(

(Sorry for my english.. I hope you understand me.. :/ )

I noticed a few weeks ago, when I tried to update the drm/i915 snapshots, that they were no longer working. Try using the last but one versions, or the ones before that.
As for the SUSE 9.3 question, I'm a 9.2 user myself, so you just need to compile the drm/i915 modules like everyone else.

I noticed that sometimes the display gets slow for no apparent reasons, but I couldn't quite work out the reason why.
If anyone is interested I can post my fancy xorg.conf here (for an Inspiron 6000 with a 1280x800 display).

Did anyone get it to work? There are only post of people who didn't manage to make it work.

Thanks for the tip R4cOOn,

I downgraded back to the version from 050707.

My frame-rates for glxgears and some of the gl hacks in xscreensaver have doubled ... still not great, but better.

I can now watch DVDs ... boat-loads of dropped frames, and only works windowd, not full screen, but it much better than the absolutely nothing that I got before.

xdriinfo segfaults ... not sure what's up with that.

Basically, I think I'm half-way there, which is farther than I was.

Here's an interesting segment from Xorg.0.log

(WW) I810(0): Bad V_BIOS checksum
(II) I810(0): Primary V_BIOS segment is: 0xc000
(II) I810(0): VESA BIOS detected
(II) I810(0): VESA VBE Version 3.0
(II) I810(0): VESA VBE Total Mem: 7872 kB
(II) I810(0): VESA VBE OEM: Intel(r)915GM/910ML/915MS Graphics Chip Accelerated
VGA BIOS
(II) I810(0): VESA VBE OEM Software Rev: 1.0
(II) I810(0): VESA VBE OEM Vendor: Intel Corporation
(II) I810(0): VESA VBE OEM Product: Intel(r)915GM/910ML/915MS Graphics Controller
(II) I810(0): VESA VBE OEM Product Rev: Hardware Version 0.0
(--) I810(0): Xv is disabled because it needs 2D accel and AGPGART.
(II) I810(0): Allocating at least 256 scanlines for pixmap cache
(II) I810(0): Initial framebuffer allocation size: 8448 kByte
(II) I810(0): Allocated 4 kB for HW cursor at 0xffff000 (0x1d5dc000)
(II) I810(0): Allocated 16 kB for HW (ARGB) cursor at 0xfffb000 (0x0b708000)
(--) I810(0): DRI is disabled because it needs HW cursor, 2D accel and AGPGART.

I feel bad about posting the whole thing here because it's a pretty big file, but i thought this might be useful. If there's some other stuff in the log that I should be looking for, I hope someone will let me know.

Anyway, is this "Bad V_BIOS checksum" a likely cause of the problem? If so, is there anything I can do beside hassling ACER for an update?

Also, lsmod says that agpgart module is loaded ... is there something I can do in the xorg.conf file to try to force 2d accel and maybe force the xserver to notice agpgart?

Finally, just to be sure ... hardware cursor has to do with the graphics card rendering the arrow, not support for my touchpad, right?

Anyway, thanks again R4cOOn. It's not quite there yet, but it definitely feels like a stop in the right direction.

I downgraded to 050707 too but have still the same.. ;(

FATAL: Error inserting i915 (/lib/modules/2.6.12.3/kernel/drivers/char/drm/i915.ko): Unknown symbol in module, or unknown parameter (see dmesg)

and dmesg :

What should I do in

Device Drivers -->
Character devices -->
Intel 830M, 845G, 852GM, 855GM, 865G (i915 driver) -->

exclude, include or in module "i195" ?

What to do else in kernel 2.6.12.3 for my i915 chipset (graphic card is most important of course) ?

Got stuff working ... not sure why ... here's what I did ...

First off, it's an ACER Aspire 1690, just in case anyone needs to compare notes.

Basically, I'd done so much tweaking with Xorg, CVS, kernel, ACPI, etc. that I couldn't figure out what was what anymore, so I backed up my personal data to my desktop and started fresh.

Repartitioned the HD so I had a small windows partition so I could see what MS does (ACER suports MS, but only gives lip-service to Linux)

0) Installed XP on the first partition from the recovery disks and booted it up once to check out the hardware config that windows picks up.
1) Installed Slackware 10.1
2) Installed gcc-3.4.4 with the following config/compile options
../gcc-3.4.4/configure --enable-shared --enable-threads=posix --enable-__cxa_atexit --enable-languages=c,c++,f77,java,objc
make profiledbootstrap
3) Compiled and installed 2.6.12.2 kernel with acpi patch (note, I still need to fix my dsdt)
Make sure to have agpgart, i915 modules compiled in.
4) Install new version of hdparm so that I can get dma to work on my hard-drive/dvd-drive. This wasn't working before either.
5) Install Xorg6.8.2 from source (full source, fonts and all since slackware 10.1 doesn't seem to have all the fonts)
Note, I didn't play with host.def or any configs at all for the compile, just let it do it's thing.
Note, I'm still using my xorg.conf file from before when I couldn't get dri to work.
6) Install the drivers i915 and dri drivers from freedesktop, the versions from 20050707 worked best for me before, so these are what I used now.

Now, for some magic reason, everything works. glxgears gives me numbers 10 times higher than what I had before and xdriinfo finds screen0.

The only real difference that I can think of are
1) I have windows installed and actually booted it up once.
2) I have dma working on the hard-drives.

If anyone can tell me why everything suddenly works when it didn't before, that would be tres cool. I hate this black magic feeling I have right now.

If anyone wants me to post my xorg.conf file or an Xorg.0.log file, let me know.

If anyone can tell me
