Config

Problem :

first start of X : primary screen work fine, secondary screen stay blue
(mandriva make root X window blue instead of grey by default). 
The screen seems to be properly configured (1024x768@85) and I can drag
something on this screen (but obviously I don't see it anymore)
If I try this in clone mode, the second screen is blue, the first display
properly.

Second start of X or after a switch to VT and come back, the second screen is
perfectly fine, and I can use it



Configuration :

xserver : 1.4.0.90 from mandriva 2008.1

Card (NV4B, 10de:02e1) on AGP bus :
01:00.0 VGA compatible controller: nVidia Corporation G73 [GeForce 7600 GS]
(rev a2)

Primary screen on DVI (with DVI to VGA adaptor) : IIYAMA A705MT (Vision master
pro 411) 

Secondary screen on VGA : IIYAMA S704HT (Vision master 404), this screen alone
had worked fine with nouveau on VGA since 18 months.

I've made a small movie (~1 min ; 8MB) in order to better explain the problem :
http://mjules.free.fr/nouveau/bug.avi

storyline : 
fresh boot in runlevel 3 (before the beginning of the movie)
2" : startx
30" : KDE is loaded, the screen on DVI (with adaptor) show KDE, the screen on
VGA show nothing but a blue color
37" : I made a switch to VT
45" : I come back from VT to X, the two screen display KDE in clone mode as
expected initially.

thx

Thanks, for the video, that explains it really well.

1) it would seem you are using an FB for the console.  Certainly this can cause
problems if it's nvidiafb.  Even if it's vesafb it may be worth trying a boot
with "vga=0" added to the end of your kernel parameters to force a text-mode
only boot.

2) assuming this doesn't fix it, please make register dumps while in X, both
before (broken) and after (working) the switch to and from VT.

Use my version of radeontool to make these.  It can be acquired by:

git clone git://anongit.freedesktop.org/~stuart/radeontool
cd radeontool; make

then dumps made by

./radeontool regs > logfile

Hi,

thx for your answer

disabling vesafb doesn't fix the problem but it becomes different : 
now the secondary screen doesn't come up at all at first start. It is powered
but stays black as if it doesn't receive a signal. 

As previously switch to VT and come back fix the display.

Dumps attached

Try running these register writes, all together in a script and see if it fixes
anything (in the same mode you made the dumps - I assume vesafb enabled?)

./radeontool regset C1:00 0xa7
./radeontool regset C1:01 0x7f
./radeontool regset C1:02 0x7f
./radeontool regset C1:03 0x8b
./radeontool regset C1:04 0x88
./radeontool regset C1:05 0x95
./radeontool regset C1:06 0x27
./radeontool regset C1:07 0xf5

If that doesn't produce anything, it might be interesting to see the reg dumps
for the vesafb disabled case.

Dumps were made with vga=0 (but vesafb has been compiled inside the kernel by
my distro)

Writing the registers seems to solve the problem :) the screen display fine
after that.

thx

Could the weirdness you see come from grub ? my distro is using a "graphic"
grub.
