[SOLVED] building xorg-server: libgl & nvidia-utils conflict

Hello!
I somehow feel like I'm totally missing the point, but...
edit: although I think (not sure any more) this was the same procedure when I first compiled xorg-server, I maybe should mention, I'm now using the testing xorg.
I still don't really understand, why I need libgl to build xorg-server. Aren't nvidia-utils supposed to replace that? Is there a way of building xorg-server with nvidia-utils instead of libgl and if yes: are there (dis-/) advantages doing so other than not having to uninstall nvidia-utils while compiling xorg-server?
Or the other way around: Perhaps it's just me, but I feel "funny" having to remove something that's vital to my installation before I can compile something that's vital to my installation, too... so is it really OK to remove nvidia-utils and compile xorg-server without it or am I doing it wrong?
Thank you for enlightening me

Well AFAIK, The nVIDIA closed source drivers haven't caught up with xorg server 1.6 which is why you need libgl to build xorg-xserver 1.6+. I personally perfer the open source drivers over Fglrx (FireGL and Radeon X) and the closed source nVIDIA drivers as well.
edit: xorg server is 1.6 in testing so if you want to compile from source, and have the closed source nvidia drivers, you would need to compile xorg server 1.5.XX
P.S. You cannot have both, the nvidia drivers and the open source drivers (libgl), running at the same time which is why the nvidia-* packages are to be removed.
Cheers!

Two GPUs, two purposes - libgl and nvidia-utils conflict - lib32-libgl

Hi all!
After realizing there is no way (by now) to perform a vgs switch (between integrated Intel and discrete Nvidia GPUs) using nvidia propertary driver (as I read, the only one supporting gpgpu with cuda/openCL), I wondered if there is a way of letting them co-exist: graphics on the integrated one and applications on the nvidia. After all, I might not need to be using the discrete card for the video if I want to use it for other purposes.
Obeviously, the tho drivers conficlt (nvidia-utils conflicts with libgl), but in this post a workaround is suggested.
Thing is, also lib32-nvidia-utils and lib32-libgl (Skype depends on it) conflict, so I thought I could just extend the suggestion, but I couldn't find lib32-libgl's pkgbuild. Where can I find it? If it doesn't exist at all, is there a way I can workaround?
By the way, why aren't libgl and lib32-libgl on abs? In what way are they different from the others?
There is libgl-git in AUR, but I couldn't find the 32-bit version.
Do you think I have a chanche it'll work?
Thanks a lot

So you think it'll never work :sad:
Actually, it is working now. It's a recent development posted in the mailing lists, but the solution came up yesterday and tests have been positive so far. It's confirmed to work in at least two Optimus machines.
Progress is being posted in the mailing lists, but the author, Martin Juhl, is also blogging it. I'll just sum up what the solution: It resorts to turbojpeg VirtualGL and two xorgs. The intel card does everything, and apps meant to use the nvidia are specifically run with vglrun.
Unfortunately, the solution removes hardware acceleration in the intel card (immediately noticeable by the absence of desktop effects). In arch that translates the libgl / nvidia-utils conflict.
intel-dri demands libgl.
xf86-video-intel demands intel-dri.
In order to install nvidia + nvidia-utils in Arch, without removing intel-dri and xf86-video-intel, you have to:
# pacman -Sd nvidia nvidia-utils
This will still remove libgl, though.
Now THAT is just cool... would make optimus laptops so much more useful if/when it works reasonably well. Sounds like quite a bit of hackery involved though.

[SOLVED] Trouble Building Xorg-Server 1.6.1-1 (Modified PKGBUILD)

ever since the release of xorg-server 1.5.3, i've been using a modified
PKGBUILD to build xorg-server sans hal and dbus. (not gonna try
justifying it again; that'd just lead to yet another flame war.)
i've never had a problem until the 1.6.1-1 PKGBUILD, which adds the lines:
libtoolize --force || return 1
aclocal || return 1
autoconf || return 1
automake --add-missing || return 1
after applying patches and before running the configure. these added lines produce:
libtoolize: putting auxiliary files in `.'.
libtoolize: linking file `./ltmain.sh'
libtoolize: Consider adding `AC_CONFIG_MACRO_DIR([m4])' to configure.ac and
libtoolize: rerunning libtoolize, to keep the correct libtool macros
in-tree.
libtoolize: Consider adding `-I m4' to ACLOCAL_AMFLAGS in Makefile.am.

Aborting...
my modified PKGBUILD is build. please note that i *have* tried
reverting my changes (the commented patches), to no avail.
as i'm pretty clueless vis-a-vis makefiles and the autoconf system,
could somehow point me in the direction of a fix?
many thanks,

Not any help to your error but have you tried the one in aur with disabled dbus and hal?
I've been using it for a week or so with no problems and it built fine.

Heh I missed some part of like like flamelab said , how I do that?
Some time ago I created my own PKGBUILD for xorg-server and toady I want to update it becouse I see some difreces between my PKGBUILD and PKGBUILD from abs tree and I copy the difrrent line
Thanks Perry3D and big thanks to flamelab.

Building xorg-server fails

Hi everyone
I think I'm having the same problems as this guy: https://bugs.freedesktop.org/show_bug.cgi?id=12509
To make sure that the suggested patch (from here: https://bugs.freedesktop.org/show_bug.cgi?id=12858) is really working I tried to rebuild xorg-server.
But I just get some strange errors and I can't figure out where they come from
I did 'make' in the folder that failed during makepkg
Here's the output: http://phpfi.com/277365
My system is completely up to date (I also tried building it after the core-update but no success)
I'd appreciate any help
Thanks in advance
XazZ

Yep. it should work with --disable-config-hal .
Btw, thats how the patch was really commited :
http://gitweb.freedesktop.org/?p=xorg/x … 1b4c747727
You should be able to download this link and use it as a patch directly.
If it works, open a bug report on bugs.archlinux.org with a link to the upstream bug report 12858, and with the link above (the patch that was actually commited).

[SOLVED] After xorg-server update backlight is not behaving

After updating a Thinkpad S540 today the system goes into dim backlight level for the screen during the initial stages of the boot process, and recovers to normal brightness after the password has been entered in the KDM greeter and the user logs in to KDE. Running KDE the brightness behaves normally, but when the system shuts down after logging out from KDE the text output during shutdown does into very dim mode again.
The brightness parameters when logged in to KDE look fine.

Booting with kernel parameter systemd.restore_state=0 gives a normal brightness throughout. So this must have something to do with the saving of the brightness parameters by systemd. The clue is in the journal log above:
systemd-backlight[200]: Saved brightness 11 too low; increasing to 46.
I wonder how I can get systemd to reset the stored value which is too low to be sensible?
Has anyone seen similar behaviour and if so is there a proper fix instead of the workaround in the bug I have filed upstream as below?

@iskandr , @ens about backlight and fn keys:
keys work (I checked by xmodmap) and backlight control works, but only by:
/sys/class/backlight/intel_backlight/brightness
old scripts which used for example:
/sys/class/backlight/acpi_video0/brightness
stopped works.
I wonder if this is a BUG or new feature? Where are handlers in clean Linux / systemd responsible for action to acpi keys which controlls backlight? ( I checked and it's not acpid /etc/acpi/handler.sh - acpi keys backlight controll works without it ). (moreover,acpid is external application as well as xbacklight, gbacklight etc... It should work OOTB, without these applications and also in the console.)
to turn on old interface as before 3.16 try add
video.use_native_backlight=0
to GRUB_CMDLINE_LINUX_DEFAULT line in /etc/default/grub ( remember about grub-mkconfig -o /boot/grub/grub.cfg )
it turns on old interface:
ls -l /sys/class/backlight/
lrwxrwxrwx 1 root root 0 08-15 13:36 acpi_video0 -> ../../devices/pci0000:00/0000:00:01.0/0000:01:00.0/backlight/acpi_video0
lrwxrwxrwx 1 root root 0 08-15 13:36 acpi_video1 -> ../../devices/pci0000:00/0000:00:02.0/backlight/acpi_video1
lrwxrwxrwx 1 root root 0 08-15 13:36 intel_backlight -> ../../devices/pci0000:00/0000:00:02.0/drm/card0/card0-LVDS-1/intel_backlight
and everything works again as before 3.16.
http://cgit.freedesktop.org/xorg/driver … 0d681c171e
This is another BUG (also occurs to my laptop). I see that the code is ready, so wait for a fix update.
I wonder also whether and where to file a bug report (about fn keys + backlight control).

Hi,

This happens for xorg-server-1.17.1-6 and up as well as for xorg-server-1.17.2-1 .

I searched for a solution or a patch, but couldn't find anything.
xorg-server-1.17.2 supposedly has build fixes with gcc-5.1, but obviously that didn't help much for me.
Otherwise my arch installation is up-to-date.
I'm building on x86-64 (Haswell) with

Has anyone else seen this or any idea how to fix it?

Using
CFLAGS="-march=native -mtune=native -O2 -pipe -fstack-protector-strong --param=ssp-buffer-size=4"
CXXFLAGS="-march=native -mtune=native -O2 -pipe -fstack-protector-strong --param=ssp-buffer-size=4"
in makepkg.conf actually worked, I totally forgot about changing the optimization level.
Since this is the first time for a very long time I've encountered a problem with -O3, do you think this should be reported as a bug for xorg-server?
With gcc-4.9 building xorg-server with -O3 optimization level worked perfectly fine for me (I built 1.17.1 like that) and gcc-5.1 causes this culprit.
Anyways, thank you very much for your help!

[solved/cannot be solved]Xorg-server and gnome-power-manager

I was wondering if there is hope that someone will put patches to main tree of Xorg-server which are here: http://blogs.gnome.org/hughsie/2009/08/ … of-bodges/
It should remove this weird blanking effect and time gap before screen is backlighted again. I didn't tested it, because it requires rebuild of xorg-server and I don't want to use git version, but guys there says that it's working.
Last edited by megawebmaster (2010-02-08 22:24:26)

OK, thanks for advice, I'll try building xorg-server with ABS.
I've got another problem with automatic turn off screen - media players don't prevent turning screen off while they are playing film. Is there any possibility to fix it? Only way I've found is to turn off automatic screen backlight off after couple of minutes, but it's not how tigers want this to work

Wine - lib32-nvidia-utils

I'm trying to play a game via wine, the game needs the lib32-nvidia-utils package.
If I try to install it from the repos, pacman tells me that it is unavailable, even after repo syncing with pacman -Sy...
( Arch package search shows me that it is normally in the community repos )
However, I've navigated to a repo in my browser,
downloaded it manually, and tried to install it ( with pacman -U).
Then pacman tells me something like:
the package lib32-nvidia-utils conflicts with lib32-libgl.
khm...
lib32-libgl is needed by lib32-mesa which is needed by wine.
so, how to install lib32-nvidia-utils?
host is archx86_64, nvidia driver is 190.42, with gnome 2.28, wine version is 1.1.34-2, installed from AUR (bin32-wine)
Last edited by scar (2009-12-19 12:13:47)

sorry, it is solved....
pacman -Syy ( forced syncing )
sudo pacman -S lib32-nvidia-utils
remove lib32-libgl, it doesn't break anything...
wine launches well and the games ( as any wine app ) is working fine

I've read threads on this before but this time nvidia-utils is being asked to be removed. I'm not sure if removing nvidia-utils is safe. Before, reading some threads on here, I had to set libgl to ignore to get nvidia-utils to install.
Thanks.

Solved the problem is very simple - removing the nouveau. I have it was because I was in one blog/forum read that no problem with containing both nvidia and nouveau, but that one of them will be in Blacklist. But he interrupted me to upgrade. But the strangest thing - when I last updated, they do not conflict, but now whoop.
Thanks TigTex and wonder for your help!
