Greetings,
Sorry if I'm violating list etiquette in any way--the readme link to
intellinuxgraphics.org no longer works.
My hardware:
Asrock Z77 Extreme4 with iGPU Multi-Monitor enabled. Primary graphics is
set to PCIe but that doesn't make a difference.
i7 3770k / HD 4000
nVidia GTX 660 running nVidia's binary drivers v334.21, although
multiple versions have the issue
My software:
Stable Gentoo with gentoo-sources-3.12.13, although multiple kernels
have the issue
I am trying to use both the HD 4000 graphics and the nVidia card
simultaneously in a single-seat multiple-X-server Zaphod scenario. I
have another cheap nVidia card on order so I don't have any urgent need
and maybe not any need at all to get this working with i915.
The Zaphod setup works fine with the exception of two problems that
occur only when the i915 driver is loaded with modesetting enabled.
I.e., not loading i915 or setting "nomodeset" or "i915.modeset=0" at
boot resolves the issue, but does not allow the HD 4000 to be used. With
i915 loaded normally:
1) The nVidia virtual terminals are messed up. They appear zoomed-in and
don't update.
2) The nVidia card does not resume correctly from suspend-to-ram. It
prints some errors to dmesg and either doesn't wake the monitor up, or
doesn't ever show the X session again until I reboot.
I am a C programmer and I don't mind helping to fix this if it turns out
to be relatively simple issue and my help is desired. Is this a known
limitation, and does anyone have a clear idea what the problem is or
where to look?
Thanks,
-Ben Johnson
