Description Aleksey Lazar 2007-05-02 18:09:19 UTC

After upgrading to xorg-server-1.3.0.0 my 3DLabs Permedia II 2D+3D card using xf86-video-glint driver stopped loading. The error messages I get in xorg.log are:

.....

(WW) GLINT: No matching Device section for instance (BusID PCI:5:14:0) found
(--) Chipset pm2v found

.....

(EE) Screen 2 deleted because of no matching config section.

I tried this with an older kernel -- same problem.


Reproducible: Always

P.S. This exact configuration worked prior to this latest xorg server update. At the same time as the xorg update I also updated the kernel, so that's why I mention it above.

Comment 6 Alan Hourihane 2007-08-07 11:19:15 UTC

Can you try removing the RightOf / LeftOf from your screen section, and putting..

Option "LeftOf"

or 

Option "RightOf"

in your Monitor sections instead ???

I replaced this card with an nvidia. I might give it a try on a different box though.

Comment 8 Karl 2007-09-15 02:38:32 UTC

Had the same problem with 1.3.0.0 and glint driver. Error shown was missing symbol RamDacCreateInfoRec. 
Found probably the same problem shown in this bug:
https://bugs.freedesktop.org/show_bug.cgi?id=10906
New xorg-server source doesn't have external ramdac symbols any more.
Their patch fixes that. It's here:
https://bugs.freedesktop.org/attachment.cgi?id=9920
This worked. Glint driver now loads with xorg-server-1.3.0.0

Comment 9 Aleksey Lazar 2008-03-30 18:46:03 UTC

Is this patch now available in gentoo xorg ebuild?

Please try glint 1.2, should be available in your next sync.

Please reopen if it doesn't work, assuming fixed.

Comment 12 Aleksey Lazar 2008-05-11 05:36:52 UTC

I no longer require this driver, not can I test. If anyone else has a problem with it, please reopen. Thanks. Closing.
