Screen not found with Vaio Z on ArchLinux #588

Closed Pahcixam closed 13 years ago

Pahcixam commented 13 years ago

I run ArchLinux with kernel 3.0, acpi_call from git and last version of BumbleBee from AUR.

Nvidia module is loaded and working, bumblebee deamon is started. I've got the following message when trying to use nvidia card:

$ optirun glxgears Arguments: glxgears Arguments for the application:glxgears Eco mode: 32 bits mode: Compression mode: proxy Display: :1 :: Starting Bumblebee server [DONE] Arguments: -c proxy -d :1 -ld /usr/lib/nvidia-bumblebee glxgears [VGL] ERROR: Could not open display :1.

I follow this instructions: https://wiki.archlinux.org/index.php/Bumblebee

Do you need more information ?

That's a 3+ year old laptop (Sony VAIO VGN-Z21MN/B) are you sure it has Optimus?

EDIT: Yeah, that laptop doesn't have Optimus. You can only use Bumblebee on nVidia based laptops that have Optimus technology.

You may use vga-switcheroo instead of Bumblebee.

Samsagax commented 13 years ago

We are currently working on a stable release. That package will be replaced with a new one. Just be patient. I'll recommend to remove that bumblebee package for now. Probably that Laptop is not an Optimus one but can be used (theoretically) with bumblebee for rendering

Do you need more information ?

The last messages of Xorg.1.log would help us to determine the error

Hi ! Yes my vaio doesn't have a nice sticker with Optimus, but Sony made quite the same thing before nVidia give it a name. So I hope it could worked.

So here is the last messages of Xorg.1.log

NVIDIA(0): Failed to initialize the NVIDIA GPU at PCI:1:0:0.

Here is your problem... try using another version of nvidia kernel module. You can grab the PKGBUILD and do it yourself. Check if the current kernel module supports your GPU.

Please try the new version here : https://github.com/Bumblebee-Project/Bumblebee.
