           Summary: nouveau KMS fails on NV11 - screen displays last input
           Product: xorg
           Version: git
          Platform: Other
        OS/Version: All
            Status: NEW
          Severity: normal
          Priority: medium
         Component: Driver/nouveau
        AssignedTo: nouveau-PD4FTy7X32lNgt0PjOBp9y5qC8QIuHrW@public.gmane.org
        ReportedBy: jb.faq-Mmb7MZpHnFY@public.gmane.org

dmesg output after loading kms with KMS enabled

I build the nouveau-kernel as recommended here: 
http://nouveau.freedesktop.org/wiki/InstallDRM
(Tried both master and master-compat)

Steps to reproduce
(I'm on gentoo)
1) I boot this kernel and login as root (VT)
2) modprobe -r nouveau
3) modprobe nouveau modeset=1
4) See a black screen shortly, then see the old VT, but now you cannot see new
inputs

Login with ssh still works or you can use the VT blindly

Is fbcon builtin or loaded (if it's a module)?

builtin.
I know the fbcon thing from the ati-kms ( I have a second system with r600 ati
and the kms works for me...)

Now I compiled fbcon as module, git today, branch master.
I booted the new kernel, unload nouveau, modprobe fbcon, modprobe nouveau
modeset=1

The problem still holds.

More precisely I see my frozen VT, but today I recognized the Cursor is
blinking (this is not a different to fbcon builtin, I just recognized it
today). But I don't know if this makes any differences.

greetings

From your logs:
> [drm:edid_is_valid] *ERROR* EDID checksum is invalid, remainder is 141

Doesn't sound like nouveau's fault, your monitor probably reports a broken
EDID. To workaround it you can manually set the framebuffer resolution in the
kernel command line, like:
> video=VGA-1:1024x768e
(The trailing "e" forces the output to be enabled)

Tried this, but the problem still exists!

But the message

> > [drm:edid_is_valid] *ERROR* EDID checksum is invalid, remainder is 141

disappear (see new dmesg log)

New ideas?

Reopen because forcing the video output is not a solution. And thus the wrong
EDID is not the problem (?)

Tried an other monitor (MD6155AH) today. Does work!

But: Tried forcing the resolution with the command line option
(video=VGA-1:1024x768e) with this monitor. Does not work (same problem, black
screen)! The monitor tells me it has no connection any more.

Tried other resolutions with the old monitor (LT1772ie, which is technical the
same like an Acerview 76ie)
The resolution 800x600e does work! This seems to be the resolution the kernel
boots with (so there is no resolution switch?). Maybe it is not possible to
switch the resolutions if it is forced by kernel command line?

If necessary I can upload the new dmesg outputs of the different cases.

Yes, this patch works! (I only test the situation with the command line
video=VGA-1:1024x768e )

Thanks.

The patch is already in Linus' kernel tree and it will eventually flow back to
nouveau, so I'm marking this bug as closed.
