Dear All,
following you suggestions, now I have an - almost - perfectly working
hp c8000 workstation.
Mission accomplished? Not exactly: despite a lot of efforts, the video
card section is still not fully operative. Let me resume the
situation.
I'm using a c8000 with two PA-8800 and Debian 8.0, kernel:
Linux version 4.4.0-1-parisc64-smp (debian-kernel@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx)
(gcc version 4.9.3 (GCC) ) #1 SMP Debian 4.4.6-1 (2016-03-17)
I have two very different AGP video cards (ATI FireGL T2 and NVIDIA
QUADRO MXR) that have the same issue, despite the two complety
different drivers ("radeon" and "nouveau"). The full logs are in
bottom of this post. Just to make a long history short:
ATI FIRE GL T2 ("radeon")
[ 47.836000] [drm:r100_ring_test [radeon]] *ERROR* radeon: ring test
failed (scratch(0x15E4)=0xCAFEDEAD)
[ 47.948000] [drm:r100_cp_init [radeon]] *ERROR* radeon: cp isn't
working (-22).
[ 48.036000] radeon 0000:80:00.0: failed initializing CP (-22).
[ 48.036000] radeon 0000:80:00.0: Disabling GPU acceleration
NVIDIA QUADRO MXR ("nouveau")
[ 54.388000] nouveau 0000:80:00.0: DRM: GPU lockup - switching to
software fbcon
[ 54.684000] nouveau 0000:80:00.0: fb0: nouveaufb frame buffer device
[ 54.784000] [drm] Initialized nouveau 1.3.1 20120801 for
0000:80:00.0 on minor 0
Looking inside the posts on many developers mailing lists, I see that
most of the efforts have been focused on the video device drivers init
code. I have tried to force the video drivers using the "modeset"
parameter without success. I have tried also to boot without video
driver, then load it manually using "modprobe". No way: the results
are the same.
"lsmod" tell me that "radeon"/"nouveau" are used by the "ttm" module
and they cannot be removed (despite the "- r --force" modprobe
parameters).
Let suppose for a moment that the issue is NOT inside the video driver
but in the "ttm" module: something is not fully correct in the
initialization of the ZX1 chipset, therefore the video driver code go
crazy because cannot match the video card with the chipset.
The only way that I know to investigate this issue is to recompile the
kernel with debug support and execute "single step"/breakpoint the
code that initialize the video card and the chipset near the zone of
the error message.
Question: "What are the deb packages that I need to install to
recompile the 4.4.0-1-parisc64-smp kernel (or another kernel version
suitable for this investigation) ?
Thanks in advance for you help
