intel card recognised but not used, llvmpipe used instead

#1 Post by Bernoot »

Hello,

I have a Dell Latitude 5310 / with an Intel Core i5-10210U CPU @ 1.60GHz
I am under Debian GNU/Linux 10 (buster) / GNOME 3.30.2
There is no additional graphic card, so the intel chipset should be used, but it seems it is not, although propoerly detected.

I paste the results of some diagnostic commands (sorry for several output statements being in french, but should be easy to understand).
  • I can understand that errors are reported in /var/log/Xorg.0.log @ 3.455, but I am too noob to interpret them.
  • I also find puzzling that uname says the kernel is 5.8 while /var/log/Xorg.0.log says "Build Operating System: Linux 4.19.0-10-amd64 x86_64 Debian". Could this be related to the graphic card issue?
Thanks for any suggestion!

Re: intel card recognised but not used, llvmpipe used instea

#2 Post by Deb-fan »

Weird ... just some random thoughts which popped into head. You clearly installed kernel 5.8 which yep, you should do for a 10th gen i5, did you also upgrade whatever firmware pkgs too ? Other thing is try recreating your initrd.img cmd is something like "update-initramfs -u" etc, "man update-initramfs". I mean that should've been done, the script which handles that type of thing should've handled anything like this needed when you installed the new kernel. Something to investigate though, don't have a super deep understanding of the topic and how it's handled in Debian Buster.

Do you have anything which relies on dkms, might look into upgrading it too if needed, really overall hazy on much of this but may be of some help, so there you have it. I have(do remember)having to chase newer versions of dkms and the broadcom-sta-dkms pkgs to get my broadcom wireless "wl" module to build correctly and install with newer kernels.

Is it safe to ln -s some existing files with names in the "missing" list?
Does initramfs require all these files to be present, or only one / some ?
Do you have anything which relies on dkms, might look into upgrading it too if needed
hmmm, not sure I understand what it is about.
I have installed dkms, then tried sudo dkms autoinstall and sudo dkms status, and got no answer at all.
then sudo update-initramfs -u gives the same warnings about missing i915/*.bin files.

Thanks again for your time!

Re: intel card recognised but not used, llvmpipe used instea

What I was meaning is when you upgrade the kernel like that on newer hardware, should also upgrade whatever firmware from buster-backports too. Try that and then if needed run the "update-initramfs" thing again, see if it clears up for you.

Ps, would also go ahead and install the kernel headers that correspond to the 5.8 kernel version you're using too. Why not, not sure it's needed but not like they take up overmuch space. Anyway, that's about best I've got, hopefully helps out. :)

OK, I have done this:

Also, I found on another forum that the missing i915/*.bin files could be downloaded from intel's blob list. I downloaded all those required files.
Now, sudo update-initramfs -u does not complain about missing files anymore: :)

But after rebooting, I still have the intel/llvmpipe issue :( , and /var/log/Xorg.0.log shows the same strange/error lines as in my initial post:
  • it refers to 4.19.0-10-amd64, while uname -a says 5.8.0-0.bpo.2-amd64.
  • it shows the "/dev/dri/card0: No such file or directory" error, while in fact /dev/dri/card0 does exist (see below)
  • it ends after "Cannot run in framebuffer mode. Please specify busIDs for all framebuffer devices"

I can't figure it out either, what's this llvm thing ? Logical volume management ? You're using LVM ? Might look into upgrading it as well. Never dorked with LVM, just making a wild assumption at this point that it may be playing a role ? Honestly am about out of suggestions. Though if you figure it out, post the solution for whomever else.

You're running this instance inside a virtual machine? Which is which? I don't see from a cursory reading which version is inside which. It appears that one is using 4.19 and one 5.8. The llvm is for virtualbox. Exactly what is going on with the system?
Take my advice, I'm not using it.

Bernoot wrote:I also find puzzling that uname says the kernel is 5.8 while /var/log/Xorg.0.log says "Build Operating System: Linux 4.19.0-10-amd64 x86_64 Debian".
"Build Operating System" is the system used to build (compile) Xorg binaries. It is expected that Xorg for buster was built on a system running buster's kernel.
More interesting are the next two lines :

Code: Select all

[     3.445] Current Operating System: Linux ABI20 4.19.0-12-amd64 #1 SMP Debian 4.19.152-1 (2020-10-18) x86_64
[     3.445] Kernel command line: BOOT_IMAGE=/boot/vmlinuz-4.19.0-12-amd64 root=UUID=14670662-fa63-4e49-a473-79a5d2cacb87 ro quiet nomodeset
They say that the current running kernel was 4.19.0-12. Obviously this log was not created while running a 5.8 kernel.
Check the Xorg.0.log file date. I bet it is outdated. AFAIK Gnome and GDM do not write Xorg logs in /var/log but in some dot directory under the user's home directory (check gdm home directory in /etc/passwd).

Also, the kernel parameter "nomodeset" disables graphic acceleration. So it is normal that /dev/dri/card0 does not exist and Xorg uses software rendering. This kernel parameter was not added automatically, so you added it somehow.
Bernoot wrote:Does initramfs require all these files to be present, or only one / some ?
The initramfs does not require any of these files to be present. The messages are only warnings. They are displayed when a kernel module is embedded in the initramfs (graphic modules are embedded if plymouth, the splash screen, is installed) and advertises that it may use missing firmware files for some supported hardware. But the firmware files actually needed, loaded or missing are only mentioned in the kernel logs, such as :

Code: Select all

oct. 30 13:19:21 ABI20 kernel: i915 0000:00:02.0: firmware: direct-loading firmware i915/kbl_dmc_ver1_04.bin
oct. 30 13:19:21 ABI20 kernel: i915 0000:00:02.0: [drm] Finished loading DMC firmware i915/kbl_dmc_ver1_04.bin (v1.4)
So the only firmware needed was already present.
Bernoot wrote:hmmm, not sure I understand what it is about.
I have installed dkms
If you do not understand, why don't you just search or ask for explanation before installing anything ? dkms and kernel headers are used to build out-of-tree kernel modules. Irrelevant here.

Can't you just shut up when you're clueless, and spare us your annoying "random thoughts" and "wild assumptions" ?
LLVM has nothing to do with LVM. A quick search in Wikipedia would have given you useful information about LLVM and MESA's llvmpipe.

The simple and correct answer, which could be verified by testing a Live ISO of MX Linux AHS or KDE versions, which support 10th-gen out of the box, and which I've already mentioned quite a few times here: 10th-gen Intel requires a newer Mesa to work correctly (DRI acceleration instead of llvm), which is not available in buster-backports. I expect these questions to only become more common until Bullseye is released, so perhaps a note could be made of that fact.

I was behind the MX AHS release to start with, and would have preferred not to have to backport LLVM 10 and a newer Mesa, but facts are facts--I had to do so. Maybe a Debian maintainer could do it for backports, since it seems to work a treat for MX.

AFAIK, a software replacement for graphic treatments provided by a dedicated chipset.

OK, thanks for trying, anyway.

No, the lvm in llvm does not mean this is a virtual machine. My system is a fresh debian 10 install in a new machine.

You win the bet: file date is system install time. I was wrongly thinking that this was a log file which was re-generated at each boot.

Yes, my first boot after installation showed a black screen. This is why I added nomodeset.

p.H wrote:Because the file you are reading was not updated. Still the same old outdated file. Look for the current Xorg log files in the proper places (see above).
I tried to, but no success: sudo find / -iname "*Xorg*" shows no result in /home/, and no .log file except in /var/log.
stevepusser wrote:10th-gen Intel requires a newer Mesa to work correctly (DRI acceleration instead of llvm)
So, I understand I just have to wait for updates :? .

:?: In the meantime, is there a way to at least reconfigure Xorg under the 5.8 kernel, without the nomodeset option?

According to the output of fbset and journalctl and the contents of grub.cfg in your original post, nomodeset is no longer present. If you just added it once in the GRUB menu entry editor, it was not persistent.

Sorry but I do not have any system with GNOME and cannot be more precise about Xorg log location.

Yes, if I remember well, I added nomodeset using the "e" option when grub boot screen was displayed. If I understand well, this is a one-shot option.
But if Xorg was configured during this session, does it result in nomodeset being active afterwards? In this case would it be a good idea to configure Xorg again (how?), while under 5.8 and nomodeset option removed?
N.B. in my grub config files, nomodeset is only present for the linux recovery option in /etc/grub.d/10_linux, which makes sense.

No. By default, Xorg is autoconfigured each time it is started.

I do not see "nomodeset" in recovery menu entries in the grub.cfg included in your original post.

Sigh...llvm is NOT a virtual machine. It's a compiler toolchain which also includes the clang compiler. Mesa is compiled with the llvm toolchain, which is why it's mentioned when a driver has to fall back onto software rendering instead of direct rendering. A newer Mesa requires a newer llvm toolchain, which takes quite a while to backport, plus you will also probably need to cross-compile the i386 version for your 64-bit install. I had to use sbuild to build and cross-compile llvm-10--pbuilder builds barf and die after an annoyingly long time of building. :(

You can get it to work on Debian correctly by either updating to Debian testing, adding the MX 19 main and AHS repos and updating your driver stack from there, or doing all the backports yourself (not a trivial job). All may have some hurdles.

^ Thanks for sharing some of thy compilation and nix graphics wizardry Stevep. So if getting this right, OP should pretty much go with using MX w AHS, at least that's what it sounds like would be easiest, either that or use the needed MX pkgs on Buster. Lol ... should've and started to just google llvm to see what the hades it is but nope, not going through all that to try n lend someone a hand.

Since it's been mentioned though, my take on the best solution to all things Virtualbox is don't use it, still have a hard time understanding with a well supported real hypervisor = KVM readily available, why people even bother with VB but hey, many obviously like it so whatever ...

OK, I'll try to update through debian testing repos. But that's unusual to me, so I need to read some doc first.
Thanks again for helping

Do not try to just add the Debian testing repos to Buster and update Mesa, etc.--that way leads to madness unless you are an expert with pinning package versions. You have to use backported versions or do a full upgrade to testing--no half-measures.
