Fglrx black screen on startx

Hi,
I installed archlinux on my mid-2010 21,5' iMac (with an ATI Radeon HD4670 inside) without any problems.
Then I installed xorg from the xorg112 repo, and I installed catalyst-hd234k from AUR.
Now when I try to launch X using startx, the screen stay black and nothing happend. I'm then forced to reboot.
Here is my xorg.conf :
Section "ServerLayout"
Identifier "aticonfig Layout"
Screen 0 "aticonfig-Screen[0]-0" 0 0
EndSection
Section "Module"
EndSection
Section "Monitor"

EndSection

Thanks in advance !
(PS : I'm really sorry for my bad english, it's not my native language.)

I have a Radeon HD4870 (identical to your card for most purposes besides performance).  The reason for my move to Arch was Ubuntu's decision to shoot anyone who doesn't use the latest cards, so here is how I get it running on Arch:
yaourt -Qs '(catalyst|radeon|hd234)'
catalyst-hd234k/catalyst-hook 13.1-14
AMD/ATI legacy drivers. Auto re-compile fglrx module while shutdown/reboot. Now with Angela - The Slayer Of The Daemons ;P
catalyst-hd234k/catalyst-utils 13.1-2
AMD/ATI Catalyst legacy drivers utilities and libraries with OpenCL implementation
catalyst-hd234k/lib32-catalyst-utils 13.1-2 (lib32)
AMD/ATI catalyst legacy driver utilities and libraries. (32-bit)

Dual 1200/1080 monitors, fullscreen video works, counterstrike works, starcraft 2 works astonishingly smoothly.
Are there any config files I could send you to help out?  Btw, I didn't bother with nomodeset.

  • Black screen on startx with ati radeon HD4330 Mobility and fglrx

    Hi,
    I managed to install Archlinux on my HP Butterfly laptop that's great !
    However I am not able to get X running properly.
    lspci|grep VGA
    00:02.0 VGA compatible controller: Intel Corporation Mobile 4 Series Chipset Integrated Graphics Controller (rev 07)
    01:00.0 VGA compatible controller: ATI Technologies Inc M92 LP [Mobility Radeon HD 4300 Series]
    Firstly I tried to use the xf86-video-ati open source driver but it made my kernel crash during the module init.
    So I am now trying fglrx, and at least my kernel is unharmed.
    But all I get is a black screen after running startx.
    Here is my X log :

    I tried those tips Archlinux Catalyst Wiki but it didn't help.
    I may be missing something obvious, but I am quite desperate so any help is welcome.
    I can give you any other log that would be meaningfull to you.
    Thanks for helping Archlinux to spread a little more.

  • [Xorg/startx] black screen with startx

    I notice a strange bug with the new version of xorg packages if I use the "startx" method for running KDE4,
    description of this bug :
    1) I type "startx -- vt1"
    2) KDE4 loads successfully
    3) I run a 3D game ( or glxgears )
    4) I choose the "logout" menu in KDE4
    5) then I type again "startx -- vt1" to start again KDE4
    6) KDE4 loads but if I move the mouse I get a black screen, but I can see the HDD led continues to light
    this bug doesn't occur if I start KDE with KDM,
    my system:
    - archlinux 32 bits
    - laptop with pentium 4 2.4 Ghz 1.2 Gb ram
    - SIS645DX chipset
    - ati radeon 9000 AGP ( I use DRI2 with KMS, xf86-video-ati driver )

    Sorry, I will use code tag next time.
    I deleted xorg.conf and it works.
    It seems a little bit strange, because xorg.conf is generated automatically by X itself. Why xorg.conf does not work?

  • After installing gnome packages, always black screen when startx

    Hello everyone,
    I am a newbie to Arch Linux, also not quite experienced at bare-bones Linux installation. I installed Arch Linux by following the steps in the installation guide up to X. Then I installed X by referring to the wiki Beginner's Guide: pacman -S xorg-server xorg-server-utils xorg-xinit. Then I installed vmware video: pacman -S extra/xf86-video-vmware. Now I tested startx. It works fine, tmw fires up, xterm windows open and xclock displaying. I can also switch to other virtual consoles by pressing Ctrl+Alt+F1~F6 (on VMware, I do Ctrl+Alt+(Space,F1))
    Then I did: pacman -S gnome. Because I didn't startx during the installation, and I didn't install dbus by that time, I got some warning message regarding dbus, "GConf-WARNING **: Client failed to connect to the D-BUS daemon:", but that was installing gnome-shell, gnome-terminal, etc., so I guess it doesn't affect gnome startup. However, after this installation, startx goes into a black screen and cannot switch to other virtual consoles by pressing Ctrl+Alt+Fn. And even if I remove all files from /etc/X11/xorg.conf.d/ and /etc/X11/xinit/xinitrc.d, leaving only the /etc/X11/xinit/xinitrc (and no ~/.xinitrc), it still doesn't work. The /etc/xinit/xinitrc contains starting of twm, xterm and xclock near its end.
    Could some experts shed some light on this?
    Thanks a lot and best regards,
    Robbie

    Following your suggestion and search, I found this:
    https://bbs.archlinux.org/viewtopic.php?id=158882
    I uninstalled the vmware video driver (pacman -R local/xf86-video-vmware) and installed the vesa driver (pacman -S extra/xf86-video-vesa). Now the desktop is visible, but freezes after being visible. I'll try to revert to x.org 1.13 and retry.

  • [SOLVED] Hangs for aged at fsck at boot then black screen on startx

    Hi fellow Archers,
    I'm really stumped here. I resized my arch partition to install another distro alongside. After, arch hung for 5-10min at the fsck screen and once it gets past this startx fails with a black screen. I've tried a few things and at one point it booted up fine (no hang at fsck) and I was able to start x, which makes me think the issues are related, I'm unsure what changed and cannot reproduce. My UUIDs in grub.cfg and fstab look fine to me (if this is relevant). I'll post any files/logs on request as I'm on a phone just now.
    EDIT: The UUID for my swap partition in fstab was incorrect. Alls well after correcting it. Anyone know why this would cause x to give a black screen?
    Last edited by coire (2013-12-11 12:08:17)

    When you resized the partition, it caused the UUID of the partition to change. The drive couldn't be mounted, and this caused the hang in startx.

  • [Solved] Black screen after startx, GDM causes hang at boot

    So I followed the install guide and and have tried many google workarounds for the problem but none have worked. I am running a Toshiba Satellite e500 with Intel i5 which I assume comes with HD4000 graphics. I installed the  vesa drivers along with the xf86-video-intel drivers.  First startx caused the screen to stay black so I installed the GMD and then starting the computer would hang just after GRUB, and I cannot do anything further.... Any ideas?
    Last edited by wingsuit (2013-05-22 17:03:14)

    Try disabling GDM in systemd.  Boot to a console and log in.  If things are still working, start GDM from the console.  If that fails, switch too another console, log in, and kill GDM.  There now may be useful information on the original console.  Were it my system I would actually log in from to the console, start a tmux session, flip to a second console, log in, attach to the tmux session, and then start GDM.  While it is starting, flip back to the original console and watch the telemetry go by in the other tmux screen.

  • Catalyst black screen

    I have installed the Catalyst and Catalyst-utils packages available in AUR.  I
    configured with 'aticonfig -f' and ran startx, all I got was a black screen.
    However, I'm still able to switch to other virtual terminals, and from the log
    the server appears to be running. I can even execute programs fron .xinitrc. 
    I've also tried starting it through kdm, and get the same black screen.  Startx
    and kdm both work fine if I use vesa. 
    Here's my Xorg.conf and Xorg.0.log from a typical run.

    So I've googled, and read that both xrandr and aticonfig can dynamically enable
    monitors, but not at the same time.  I tried enabling my monitor with "xrandr --output CRT2 --auto" (from .xinitrc, heh) and changed the resolution, but nothing happened.
    So I wanted to try enabling it with the catalyst utils. I tried to disable xrand
    r with 'aticonfig --set-pcs-str="DDX,EnableRandR12,FALSE"'.  This put the right
    key in the right place, and the Xorg.0.log reports "RandR disabled". But when I
    run X again, the xrandr client functions and aticonfig refuses to manage display
    s.
    So I'm kind of stumped.  I'd appreciate it if someone could go over the log and
    see if there are any clues I missed.

    Sorry, I post for the third time but I have something new.
    The problem is not catalyst, because if I use the free driver on the HD 5xxx, I am the same problem (black screen)
    I think it's my graphics card which was not detected or something else. But when I do : lspci. The HD5xxx was detected at the PCI 2:0:0.
    This is my Xorg.log with catalyst
    Xorg.log with free driver
    And if you want  my xorg.conf
    (I hope you can understand me :s)
    Thanks !

  • Catalyst/fglrx startx freeze - blank/black screen

    Sometimes, usually the second or third time I use startx after a reboot, video is not displaying.  I get a black screen (blank) with no cursor and no windows of any sort.  Ctrl+Alt+F[1-12] does not work at all.  The system is unresponsive.  I'm not sure whether the system is locking up or if video is just not displaying.
    My graphics card is a "Mobility Radeon 9600 M10"
    The Xorg doesn't appear to have any errors either.  Here's the log from when Xorg failed:
    http://www.lastholdout.com/foo/xorg/Xorg.fail
    Also, here's my xorg.conf file.  I generated it using 'sudo aticonfig --initial':
    http://www.lastholdout.com/foo/xorg/xorg.conf
    Notice that I added:
       Option      "UseInternalAGPGART"         "no"
       Option      "KernelModuleParm"           "agplock=0"
    around line 135 for good measure since Arch's Wiki says that those options may help prevent lockups.
    I've had this problem at least since 2.6.22.  Back in December, I switched back to the open source ATI driver.  As of late, system performance has been a real drag, and other than this strange behavior, catalyst seems to do a better job.  Is anyone else having this problem?

    Sorry,
    I'd pretty much given up on this - I know it sounds strange, but this only affects me at home, when I turn on the laptop at work, it works perfectly every time.  If I try using the work network profile at home it sometimes randomly works.
    I did a bit more digging into this, and running a strace produced lots of ioctl messages:
    15692 open("/dev/dri/card0", O_RDWR)    = 10
    15692 write(0, "drmOpenDevice: open result is 10,"..., 39) = 39
    15692 write(0, "drmOpenByBusid: drmOpenMinor retu"..., 40) = 40
    15692 ioctl(10, 0xc03064a6, 0x7fffc8705010) = 0
    15692 ioctl(10, 0xc03064a6, 0x7fffc8705010) = 0
    15692 ioctl(10, 0xc03064a6, 0x7fffc8705010) = 0
    15692 ioctl(10, 0xc03064a6, 0x7fffc8705010) = 0
    15692 ioctl(10, 0xc03064a6, 0x7fffc8705010) = 0
    (about 2,000,000 or so before I managed to kill X)
    i don't think this is a wireless issue any more, it is more than likely a fglrx problem, but I doubt we will get any luck trying to get support out of ATI, in the meantime I will just end up constantly rebooting my laptop until it decides to work.
    BTW I have also seen this happen under Mandriva when network profiles were used, but never got a chance to dig into it very much.
    As I type this I am looking at it a bit more closely and I can see that in the same strace I also get:
    15692 open("/dev/dri/card0", O_RDWR)    = 11
    15692 write(0, "drmOpenDevice: open result is 11,"..., 39) = 39
    15692 write(0, "drmOpenByBusid: drmOpenMinor retu"..., 40) = 40
    which makes me think that X has opened the DRI device twice and there may be some kind of race condition going on here, at which point I am in way too deep and if there is anyone here with clue, please help.
    Cheers

  • Can't fix fglrx/Xorg black screen issue, no matter what I try!

    I've tried everything that I can think of or find online to fix this. Please help.
    I'm getting what seems to be an oft-recurring issue where Xorg simply won't start when using the fglrx driver. It boots fine with VESA or Xfree86-ati, but using fglrx I just get a black screen that won't accept any input, although ssh'ing into the box while this is happening still works.
    I've been reading forum posts for *days* now trying to get this to work. I've tried every combination of 12.4/12.6 drivers, Xorg 1.11/1.12 and modeset/nomodeset kernel parameters. I definitely do not have any radeon or other DRI modules compiled into my kernel. I have an HD4200, SLiM/Xfce4, and I'm using the proper catalyst-hd234k package. The fglrx module has been compiled for my kernel and added to my initramfs, and it loads at boot. lsmod reveals its presence and does *not* show 'radeon'. I have uninstalled every video driver aside from fglrx and Xfree86-vesa. Output does not seem to be going to HDMI instead. Switching consoles/typing blindly does not work, and I need to hold the power button for 5 seconds to shutdown. I've run aticonfig --initial and tried aticonfig --acpi-services=off, too.
    I've tried *all* the different tweaks that I've found to try to make a working xorg.conf, but here's what I'm trying to use now:

    fglrxinfo while running Xorg without an xorg.conf gives me this:
    X Error of failed request: BadRequest (invalid request code or no such operation)
    Major opcode of failed request: 135 (GLX)
    Minor opcode of failed request: 19 (X_GLXQueryServerString)
    Serial number of failed request: 12
    Current serial number in output stream: 12
    And in a console it tells me that it can't open display(null)... all of which I suspect is expected behaviour when the driver is not actually in use. I just wish something would tell me what's actually *wrong*, here, instead of just expecting me to magically figure out exactly the right configuration that will actually let me use fglrx.

    I'm sure you've tried reading https://bbs.archlinux.org/viewtopic.php?id=57084
    and http://wiki.cchtml.com/index.php/Configuring
    and I'm sure you've done
    aticonfig --initial
    I had to use https://wiki.archlinux.org/index.php/AT … leshooting, specifically the part about disabling EXAPixmaps to make my card work.
    What model is your ATI card? that would help. A LOT of ATI cards were dropped from proprietary support with the Catalyst driver.

  • Radeon HD 3870 + Catalyst 9.8 & fglrx drivers = Black Screen. (arch64)

    I've installed Arch on my Alienware M17.
    First off, ATI and RadeonHD drivers do work. I have KDE 4.3 installed, etc., etc.
    I do know how bad ATI support is. I used to use Ubuntu 8.10, and upgrading to 9.04 had borked my video bad.
    However, like the title says, installing the Catalyst drivers brings me to a black screen that requires a hard reset/poweroff.
    I've been browsing forums and google for the past 12 hours trying to find a solution; here's what I have so far:

    X.Org Server 1.6.3.901 (1.6.4 RC 1)
    Catalyst 9.8 x86_64 (including catalyst-utils) from AUR (using yaourt -S)
    Before installing fglrx, I had installed ati and radeonhd drivers, got the display working, uninstalled them (libgl and vesa as well), installed fglrx (all from a fresh Arch install), tweaked xorg.conf, added fglrx to Modules in rc.conf, and viewed the Xorg.0.log file with no "(EE)" lines.
    I noticed that there are a lot of warnings regarding AIGLX, and installing catalyst from AUR displays a message (warning?) saying something like "ati-dri" was a dependancy and/or is missing.
    modprobe -l | grep fglrx
    has the result of: "video/fglrx"
    I even installed the lib32-catalyst-utils libraries and that had no effect that I could see.
    Please help. This is all that is stopping me from giving into Arch.
    Thank you for your time.

  • [Solved] Startx black screen on nvidia macbook

    startx goes to a black screen, Xorg.0.log doesn't report anything unusual (that I noticed). I've been using arch for a few years, but this is my first install on a mac, and my knowledge is rather thin in places, so I apologize if I'm missing something obvious. any help would be appreciated. here's my log. I have nvidia graphics
    btw this is the first time I've ever posted, (although these forums have helped me tremendously over the years)

  • [SOLVED] startx causes black screen?

    I've installed Arch literally hundreds of times in Virtualbox, but this is my first time trying on a physical machine. I installed xf86-video-vesa and ran startx, and I got a black screen. It didn't quit back to the TTY, and I can't even switch to another TTY to kill it, I have to keep hard rebooting. I don't have a .xinitrc in my home directory. /etc/X11 contains twn, xinit, and xorg.conf.d.
    I have an Intel HD 4000. What could be going wrong?
    EDIT: I had read about Intel graphics being "plug-and-play", and I didn't realize I still had to install xf86-video-intel. This fixed it

    Try disabling GDM in systemd.  Boot to a console and log in.  If things are still working, start GDM from the console.  If that fails, switch too another console, log in, and kill GDM.  There now may be useful information on the original console.  Were it my system I would actually log in from to the console, start a tmux session, flip to a second console, log in, attach to the tmux session, and then start GDM.  While it is starting, flip back to the original console and watch the telemetry go by in the other tmux screen.

  • Fglrx install = black screen on reboot, cannot access any gui or cli.

    Lenovo T60
    ATI X1400
    Core2Duo 2.0Ghz
    i installed fglrx, and selected it in the xorg.conf, then rebooted, and didnt even get to GDM, all black, so i reboot, go into the failsafe option in grub, and still get a black screen, no text nothing.
    What should I do? I really don't want to reinstall i just spent a while doing arch Linux for the first time, and like it so far.

    Thanks, but i get a kernel panic

    Kernel panic - not syncing: Attempted to kill init!
    btw, im using Reiserfs
    if u got a kernel panic then U need to change the device to the one your arch partition is installed on. change the /dev/sdxx line. kernel panic means that it can't find the root file system to sync too. Or at least that is my understanding. If its not sda1 then what else is it? Its your pc u tell us, where did u install the arch partition to?
    I'd say from the sounds of it, whatever is on sda1 partition is a ext2 FS, u need to find the reiserFS, but I may be wrong. Maybe u can't boot like that. Someone with some more experience will need to offer more help. But, if u can't then that's one reason why I don't use resierFS.
    I have read before about some reason's why u would wanna keep the /boot partition ext3 for a reason, this was one of them.

    Can you Ctrl-Alt-Backspace out of the X server?
    Nothing jumps out at me in your X server log.  You can try paring your xorg.conf down to a minimum and try and let X figure it all out.  Here's mine, for example:
    Section "Device"
    # Identifier "VideoCard"
    # Driver "fglrx"
    # Option "monitor-PANEL" "InternalLCD"
    #EndSection
    Section "Device"
    Identifier "VideoCard"
    driver "radeonhd"
    Option "monitor-PANEL" "InternalLCD"
    EndSection
    Section "Screen"
    Identifier "Screen0"
    Device "VideoCard"
    DefaultDepth 24
    SubSection "Display"
    Depth 24
    EndSubSection
    EndSection
    Section "Extensions"
    Option "Composite" "Enable"
    EndSection
    Section "DRI"
    Group "video"
    Mode 0660
    EndSection
    You can comment out (or delete) the "Device" section that has radeonhd in it, and uncomment the fglrx one (I haven't tried fglrx on Arch64 yet, but plan to to see if it resolves some issues I'm having).

  • Xorg black screen freeze in vmware

    What's wrong?

    Thanks for the reply!
    No, keyboard indicators are not blinking (no num lock light or anything).
    Of course, we are talking about /var/log/Xorg.0.log.
    I've realized that it is even not created now.
    (I've tried with empty xorg.conf, just to get some log errors, and after I returned fglrx version of xorg.conf and run startx log was empty)
    I haven't made any ~/.xinitrc (I think that it should run default one from /etc/X11, right?)
    I've tried with ~/.xinitrc that has just "exec xterm"
    nothing worked...
