  1. rotate screen on kde plasma 5

    in Desktop Help

    Posted

    Hi cardinal,

     

    Thanks a lot.

     

    I have already "x11-base/xorg-server glamor" in /etc/portage/package.use

     

    I tried to add VIDEO_CARDS="radeon radeonsi" in /etc/portage/make.conf

     

    and tried:

     

    # emerge -auvDN --with-bdeps=y @world --autounmask-write

     

    Unfortunately I have a dependency problem, which I could not solve yet.

     

    I'll post my problem on the "Portage Help" forum.

     

    Best Regards

  2. rotate screen on kde plasma 5

    in Desktop Help

    Posted

    Now I tried:

    xrandr --output DVI-1 --mode 1920x1200 --pos 0x0 --rotate left

    output:

    xrandr: output DVI-1 cannot use rotation "left" reflection "none"

    and 05-device.conf:

     

    Section "Device"
  Identifier "RadeonR7"
  Driver "radeon"
  Option "monitor-DVI-1" "DVI"
  Option "RandRRotation" "True"
EndSection

    the same output.

     

    But I don't know why RandR is disabled and RandRRotation is not used, from Xorg.0.log:

     

    [    16.699] (II) RADEON(0): RandR 1.2 enabled, ignore the following RandR disabled message.
[    16.749] (WW) RADEON(0): Option "RandRRotation" is not used
[    16.749] (--) RandR disabled

    Any idea?

    Thanks

    Hi cardinal,

     

    Thanks for the configs. I tried them, but unfortunately I get segmentation fault in Xorg.0.log:

     

    https://bpaste.net/show/df0271fcb6b7

     

    Is interesting that these configs have effect, because I tried something like:

     

    05-device.conf (unmodified)

    10-monitor.conf

     

    Section "Monitor"
  Identifier "DVI"
  Option "PreferredMode" "1680x1050"
EndSection




Section "Screen"
  Identifier "Default Screen"
  Monitor "DVI"
  Device "RadeonR7"
  DefaultDepth 24
  Subsection "Display"
    Depth 24
    Modes  "1680x1050" "1280x800"
  EndSubSection
EndSection

    but have no effect at all. I wanted to see only if I can change something.

     

    I tried also arandr, but the Outputs->DVI-1->Orientation->left (or right) menu option is not active.

     

    Anyway, thanks.

    Best.

    Hi cardinal,

    Currently I have only the default /etc/X11/xorg.conf.d/20opengl.conf:

    Thanks for help.

  5. rotate screen on kde plasma 5

    in Desktop Help

    Posted

    Hi,

     

    I'd like to rotate the screen by 90? in a Funtoo based system on KDE Plasma 5.

     

    Unfortunately I can't do that by the KDE System Settings -> Display and Monitor: Orientation (doesn't work).

     

    I tried to add an xorg conf file: /etc/X11/xorg.conf.d/40-monitor.conf according to this

     

    but has no effect.

     

    I don't know whether I should change /etc/sddm.conf or what is the solution.

     

    I'd appreciate any help.

     

    Thanks

  12. Install wireless driver, 'chroot'-ing from Kubuntu

    in Installation Help

    Hi j-g-,

     

    iwconfig and 'ip a' shows wlan0. Fantastic!

     

    Sorry, I could not imagine this.

     

    I realized only now that ifconfig didn't show eth0 either.

     

    Should I file a bug report for ifconfig? Unfortunately I could not find where to do that.

     

    I'm going to emerge NetworkManager with --autounmask-write and I'll configure the network.

     

    I learnt a lot with this issue, kernel configuration, about modules and a lot of commands to investigate these kind of problems.

     

    Thanks a lot.

    Hi j-g-,

     

    You are very steadfast to solve this issue, I appreciate it very much.

     

    Output of rfkill list:

     

    0: phy0: Wireless LAN

                 Soft blocked: no

                 Hard blocked: no

     

     

    In the dmesg log the RT chipset is 3593 not 3573, couldn't be the problem?

     

    But in SystemRescueCd and Kubuntu (3.13.0.32 kernel) works with the same rt2800usb module.

     

    I compared the firmware files rt28*0.bin from Kubuntu, they are the exact same files in Funtoo.

    I'm using debian-sources 3.14.4-1

     

    In lib/firmware I have only rt2860.bin, rt2870.bin (from rt28xx)

     

    Here is a diff of dmesg before and after device plugin:

    modprobe loads rt2800usb, too.
     
    I have all the rt2*00*.ko files you mentioned in /lib/modules/3.14.4-1/kernel/drivers/net/wireless/rt2x00
     
    I don't understand why the interface doesn't show up.

    Hi j-g-,

     

    I checked the rt3573* file, is missing, but is missing even in Kubuntu. I think I don't need it.

     

    I'm sure I emerged linux-firmware during install, but I did it again from chrooted environment.

     

     

    I compared the output of lsmod in SystemRescueCd, Kubuntu and Funtoo.

     

    It seems the only modules I don't have in Funtoo (and SystemRescueCd, Kubuntu both are using it) are:

     

    ccm

    pata_acpi

     

    I suspect the ccm module.

     

    Do you have idea how to configure the kernel in order to include this module?

     

    In any case, thanks for all your help.

    Hi,

     

    I'm very grateful for the Funtoo community. I learnt to configure the kernel with config-extract, menuconfig, genkernel.

     

    Unfortunately the wireless card doesn't appear yet.

     

    @j-g-    It seems that the mentioned config values were 'y' by default, I didn't change them:

     

    cat .config | grep RT2

     

    CONFIG_RT2X00=m
    CONFIG_RT2400PCI=m
    CONFIG_RT2500PCI=m
    CONFIG_RT2800PCI=m
    CONFIG_RT2800PCI_RT33XX=y
    CONFIG_RT2800PCI_RT35XX=y
    CONFIG_RT2800PCI_RT53XX=y
    CONFIG_RT2800PCI_RT3290=y
    CONFIG_RT2500USB=m
    CONFIG_RT2800USB=m
    CONFIG_RT2800USB_RT33XX=y
    CONFIG_RT2800USB_RT35XX=y
    CONFIG_RT2800USB_RT3573=y
    CONFIG_RT2800USB_RT53XX=y
    CONFIG_RT2800USB_RT55XX=y
    # CONFIG_RT2800USB_UNKNOWN is not set
    CONFIG_RT2800_LIB=m
    CONFIG_RT2800_LIB_MMIO=m
    CONFIG_RT2X00_LIB_MMIO=m
    CONFIG_RT2X00_LIB_PCI=m
    CONFIG_RT2X00_LIB_USB=m
    CONFIG_RT2X00_LIB=m
    CONFIG_RT2X00_LIB_FIRMWARE=y
    CONFIG_RT2X00_LIB_CRYPTO=y
    CONFIG_RT2X00_LIB_LEDS=y
    # CONFIG_RT2X00_DEBUG is not set
     
    I am going to investigate the working kernels (Kubuntu, systemrescuecd).
     
    Best regards

    Hi j-g-,

     

    Many thanks for the detailed explanation.

    Unfortunately I screwed up my systems a bit and I don't like it. I'll not detail the issues now. Perhaps I'll start from scratch again.

    Now I've found how can I set the wireless from systemrescuecd graphical environment and I can reinstall the system anytime.

    I'm in the process of learning, it's a fun experience.

     

    I'll announce the result.

    Best regards.

    Sorry, is not a trivial task for me, to configure the kernel. I did it only once with Gentoo.

     

    I read here: http://www.funtoo.org/Funtoo_Linux_Kernels

     

    "It is necessary to name the kernel configuration file something other than ".config" to avoid errors with genkernel."

     

    Should I do that after "make oldconfig" and "make menuconfig"?

     

    I suspect, yes and so I screwed up things, but I learnt a lot now.

     

    I'll try again.

     

    Thanks for the help.

    Hi,

     

    I have a working Funtoo system (thanks to nrc and sputnik). Unfortunately my usb wireless card was not recognized. ifconfig shows only the lo interface.

     

    Now I would like to install the wireless driver from a working Kubuntu system.

     

    When I 'chroot' into Funtoo, will the wireless connection remain alive?

     

    I tried this but I get an error at the chroot command:

     

    mount /dev/sda2 /mnt/funtoo

    mount /dev/sdb2 /mnt/funtoo/home

    cd /mnt/funtoo

    mount -t proc none proc

    mount --rbind /sys sys

    mount --rbind /dev dev

     

    env -i HOME=/root TERM=$TERM chroot . bash -l

    env: chroot: No such file or directory

     

    Any idea?

     

    Thanks

  25. How can I copy/install usb driver from system rescue cd?

    in Installation Help

    Posted

    Hi,

     

    Recently I installed Funtoo Linux with the debian-sources kernel according to the installation instructions (http://www.funtoo.org/Funtoo_Linux_Installation).

    I had to boot the alternative kernel (alter64) of system rescue cd, because the standard kernel could not work with usb ports.

    I have a Gigabyte GA-970A-DS3P motherboard.
    Unfortunately in the installed system is the same situation, the usb ports don't work.
     
    Is there a way to port/install the usb driver from the system rescue cd?
     
    I'll be grateful for any help.
