Creating an X11R6 Compatibility Symlink

OK I,m here now http://www.linuxfromscratch.org/blfs...x/x-setup.html
I ran
Code:
ln -vsf <$XORG_PREFIX> /usr/X11R6
I got, "ln: missing file operand". There is an empty file in /usr/X11R6. Also I take it these commands can be run from anywhere.

I guess my first two questions would be:

(1) Is $XORG_PREFIX defined? What is the output of `echo $XORG_PREFIX'?

(2) You're not actually typing the '<' and '>' characters, are you?

Hi,

Just to make sure:
- You ran the cd ~ && Xorg -configure step, which created a ~/xorg.conf.new file in ~
- You tested the created xorg.conf.new file with the X -retro -config ~/xorg.conf.new command and that one gave you the above mentioned error(s)?

It looks like the intel driver is loaded and rejected. Find the Section "Device" part and look for the Driver "xyz" line. xyz is probably intel in your case. Try changing that to vesa and see if that works. This vesa driver is very generic and you do want to change that to the driver that is specific for your hardware (probably intel), but you might need to change some kernel settings.

Also: All the available drivers can be found in /usr/lib/X11/modules/drivers, check to see if the inte driver is present.

PS: The ctrl-alt-backspace might not work unless you add/edit the xorg.conf file, solution was mentioned by me in your previous post: (this post).

Hope this helps.

PPSS: Just noticed your newest reply, which seems to strengthen my believe that the intel driver is missing/misconfigured.

Right I added "Option" as stated in post,
Code:
Section "InputClass"
    Identifier          "Keyboard0"
    Driver	        "kbd"
    Option              "XkbOptions" "terminate:ctrl_alt_bksp"
EndSection
mine is slightly different. Still wont go back to term?.
You were correct with Vesa got me a black screen, Nothing on it No mouse!! is this correct or still more probs?

I don't think that is correct. When you start X using the X -retro ... line you should get a gray/grid-like screen with an X (the mouse pointer, which should be working). You cannot do anything yet, but that should prove a working, be it very basic, X.

Depending on the option in the Section "InputClass" you should be able to use ctrl-alt-bksp to exit X. If that is not possible you can always open a second terminal (ctrl-alt-F2) and kill the associated process from there.

Can you post the original xorg.conf.new file and the /var/log/Xorg.0.log file that goes with it (re-run the cd ~ && Xorg -configure and X -retro -config ~/xorg.conf.new steps to make sure we look at the original, unedited file).

Hope this helps.

Hi,

The Xorg.0.log shows that:

1 - Multiple screens/monitors and devices are found (2 of each to be precise),
2 - intel is used as driver, but that one is not valid. You do eventually need the intel driver, the lspci output does show 82852/855GM. You probably need to configure this in the kernel, I'll focus on the vesa driver for the moment.
3 - there is a problem with xgi (ignore for now).

I removed the second device/screen/monitor from your xorg.conf.new, edited the ServerLayout and changed the intel driver to vesa, try this one:
Code:
Section "ServerLayout"
  Identifier   "X.org Configured"
  InputDevice  "Mouse0" "CorePointer"

I added the Option "AllowEmptyInput" "off" entry due to this message from the Xorg.0.log:
Quote:
[ 434.808] (WW) AllowEmptyInput is on, devices using drivers 'kbd', 'mouse' or 'vmmouse' will be disabled.
[ 434.808] (WW) Disabling Mouse0
[ 434.808] (WW) Disabling Keyboard0
The Option "Xinerama" "off" makes sure that no dual screen or twin view is activated.

I do believe the blue entry is the correct one, although your lspci output does show 2 entries. If you still have problems try changing it to BusID "PCI:0:2:1" or remove that line altogether.

Hope this helps.

Edit: I added the Option "XkbOptions" "terminate:ctrl_alt_bksp" line to the keyboard Section "InputClass" section.

The error from the log files is quite clear. You do not have kernel modesetting enabled. Did you build the kernel with CONFIG_DRM_I915_KMS=y ?

I have tried the modded xorg.conf.new still end up with the same result. Also changed the BUS:ID 0.2.0 >0:2:1
