Direct Rendering On F16 using Intel 845G & Mesa

gadgetwiz · #1 27th April 2012, 05:36 AM

I'm trying to help a friend setup Fedora 16 (Gnome) on his system. We have ran into an problem with the integrated Intel 845G video adapter. As noted, Fedora installed the Mesa drivers that claims to support direct rendering but it doesn't work properly.

VGA
Intel Corporation 82845G/GL[Brookdale-G]/GE Chipset Integrated Graphics Device

OpenGL
Vendor Tungsten Graphics, Inc
Renderer Mesa DRI Intel(R) 845G
Version 1.3 Mesa 7.11
Direct Rendering Yes

When running glxgears (or blender), Fedora throws this X error..

glxgears -info

approximately the same as the monitor refresh rate.

Anyone have any thoughts or suggestions on how to proceed from here? Perhaps some tweaks to xorg.conf could solve the problem or is that auto-generated in F16?

Any help would be most appreciated.

The user is still not able to run glxgears (or blender) without the error message. Shouldn't the system be able to, at the least, run glxgears?

What am I missing here?

Here is the output from glxinfo and I'm attaching xorg.0.log.

Thanks for any insight into this problem.

Are you aware that the intel i8xx chipset has been blacklisted in gnome 3 for unfixable bug(s)? That chipset only runs in fallback mode.

gadgetwiz · #4 28th April 2012, 03:17 AM

I was not aware those cards were blacklisted. I'm an nVidia user and I'm still on F14. Personally, I have only tested F16 using the nouveau drivers. I'm attempting to help out another user with the i845G chip.

So what happens when a card is blacklisted into "fallback" mode? Doesn't it use the VESA driver or some other fallback driver?

It seems strange that glxinfo reports Mesa drivers installed and that direct rendering is available. Seems that would cause problems.

Found more info regarding this issue in these two thread.

Has some good info but was closed due to personal attacks..

And of course here..
http://www.google.com/search?q=intel...+Gnome+3+Shell

I guess the only option for users with Intel 8xx/915 chipsets is to move to another DE if they need to run OpenGL apps like Blender.

Has anyone had success using Intel 8xx/915 chips with KDE, XFCE or LXDE on F16 to run openGL apps like blender, perhaps with the Intel driver or the Mesa driver?

Or, is this hardware so outdated that no one cares?

Hi All,
It seems that Java3D support has come to a standstill with no new
releases in recent memory. As a result, I am giving up on hardware acceleration,
like the above, and looking for a software rendering, bypassing all the openGL
angst.

So far, my only solution is to use VNC server and a VNC viewer to transmit frames.
Even xwindows has failed to give me a software render.

Is there a way to direct Java3D to render only in software sans opengl hardware
acceleration?

Thanks!
- D

Java3D does that by default if hardware acceleration in the OS is disabled. So you could disable DRI, either by creating a config file in /etc/X11/xorg.conf.d or (more extreme) by just moving the /usr/lib64/xorg/modules/extensions/libdri* files somewhere else.

I have moved all the lib directories...but still no joy...

If I run this under teamviewer or vncviewer, there is no problem. I think this indicated
that the software is still trying to render using hardware.

What do you think of that?
Thanks!

P.S. here is what is left in the extensions:

/usr/lib64/xorg/modules/extensions
moon{lyon}208: ls
backup/ libdbe.so* libextmod.so* libglx.so* librecord.so*

Perhaps I should remove libglx?

RupertPupkin · #8 8th May 2012, 04:41 PM

Did you restart the X server after moving those libdri* files? Otherwise they're still in memory. It's not necessary to move the libglx.so library.

No joy in mudville; still getting the same old error...more info:
I am running X11 on the mac as the remote display. This was
quit and then restarted. The Java code is running on the unix machine;
It is invoking J3d which depends on JOGL.

Is what I am getting.

Now, if I run VNCviewer, all is well...
Are you thinking that I need a:
gdm restart
?
Thanks!

If you're doing a remote display to a Mac then that might be a bit different. You said it works with VNCviewer, so perhaps that has some built-in hardware or software acceleration capabilities. As far as running and displaying the Java3D program on the same Linux machine, that should work whether hardware acceleration is enabled or not. I don't have a Mac so I'm afraid I can't help you with that.
