Hi list
I've just installed FreeBSD 9.0BETA3 on my G5 iMac (I'm about 90% sure it's a
5,1, it's the 1.8 ghz one without iSight)
Everything is working great except I can't get Xorg to run up. I know that X
does work on this hardware as I've had it going with linux, openBSD and ( I
think ) an older freeBSD release at some point.
X -configure and relevant parts of pciconf -lv follow:
domino# X -configure
X.Org X Server 1.7.7
Release Date: 2010-05-04
X Protocol Version 11, Revision 0
Build Operating System: FreeBSD 10.0-CURRENT powerpc
Current Operating System: FreeBSD domino.psych0tik.net 10.0-CURRENT FreeBSD 10.0-CURRENT #1: Mon Oct 17 09:18:22 EST 2011 richo@domino.psych0tik.net:/usr/obj/usr/src/sys/DOMINO powerpc
Build Date: 17 October 2011 10:58:04PM
Current version of pixman: 0.22.2
Before reporting problems, check http://wiki.x.org
to make sure that you have the latest version.
Markers: (--) probed, (**) from config file, (==) default setting,
(++) from command line, (!!) notice, (II) informational,
(WW) warning, (EE) error, (NI) not implemented, (??) unknown.
(==) Log file: "/var/log/Xorg.0.log", Time: Mon Oct 17 23:58:02 2011
Missing output drivers. Configuration failed.
domino# pciconf -lv
vgapci0@pci0:0:16:0: class=0x030000 card=0x001010de chip=0x032910de rev=0xa1 hdr=0x00
vendor = 'nVidia Corporation'
device = 'NV34M [GeForce FX Go5200]'
class = display
subclass = VGA
hostb0@pci0:0:11:0: class=0x060000 card=0x00000000 chip=0x0058106b rev=0x00 hdr=0x00
vendor = 'Apple Computer Inc.'
device = 'U3L AGP Bridge'
class = bridge
subclass = HOST-PCI
pcib2@pci1:0:1:0: class=0x060400 card=0x00000000 chip=0x0053106b rev=0x00 hdr=0x01
vendor = 'Apple Computer Inc.'
device = 'Shasta PCI Bridge'
class = bridge
subclass = PCI-PCI
The issue as partially diagnosed in ##freebsd appears to be that the
extensions/drivers are being installed as .la and .a not .so as Xorg seems to
expect (this is speculative, but seems to be confirmed by the xorg-server
plist)
but at this stage I'm very open to suggestion.
thanks
richo
