<font face="Helvetica, Arial, sans-serif">Hello Martin,<br>
<br>
<br>
sorry for the delay, but i was changing residence and there where
no possibility to do your tasks.<br>
But no the situation has changed ...<br>
<br>
In BIOS i can only change display settings, i tested with graphics
device Integrated Graphics (Intel) and Discrete Graphics (Nvidia)
and with Nvidia Optimus with OS detection for optimus enabled and
disabled.<br>
While i choose intel graphic there is no external monitor, only
for nvidia, but that's another problem. <br>
<br>
So with intel graphics or nvidia optimus the inteldriver don't
work, the screen is always distorted, with and without custom
configured xorg.conf, only vesa is working.<br>
Disabling DRI and hw-acceleration and change resolution also don't
change anything.<br>
<br>
The same behaviour with solaris11.3 <br>
<br>
<br>
Best regards,<br>
Alex <br>

<p>Hallo <font face="Helvetica, Arial, sans-serif">Alex</font>,<br>
<br>
<br>
do I need to ask for each snippet with an extra email, is it
some quiz here?<br>
<br>
First I _need_ to know if Solaris11.3 works for you or has the
same problem (yes, I must know that).<br>
Then you didn't respond to any of my other questions, such as
stolen-ram gtt setting in Bios or GPU-choice setting in Bios.<br>
Also: Did you follow my instructions to try several stolen ram
settings (best multiples of 32MB without remainder)?<br>
<br>
*Then*: Why is it so hard to connect some external screen to
VGA1 and repeat _all_ mentioned tests (including on both Hipster
_and_ Sol11.3)?<br>
*Plus*: At least you now said that this Xorg.0.log was created
"with xorg.conf". How useful.<br>
But what about adding the customizations I proposed, such as
disabling DRI in step A, disabling hw-acceleration in step B,
and hardwiring the resolution to a low config like <a moz-do-not-send="true" href="//e.mail.ru/compose/?mailto=mailto%3a1024x768@60" target="_blank">1024x768@60</a>
?<br>
<br>
Sorry Sir, you are not using Windows 10 Home Edition ;)<br>
Am I asking for too much when I say that I need to know how it
behaves on Sol11.3?</p>
<p>You can download it from Oracle after you register there (for
free).<br>
S11.3 uses the same DRM/KMS driver, only that it didn't need to
backport it because they do have a more modern gfx_private and
do have more modern kernel memory management interfaces.<br>
For this reason I need these comparision results. Because then
this would give some hints.<br>
It is also mandatory that you repeat the test with an externally
connected Monitor (VGA1).<br>
And if you do decide to create xorg.conf, why then don't you
benefit from its customizational powers?</p>
<p>Just to have some whatever xorg.conf is little helpful, if you
don't follow the other configuration instructions.<br>
<br>
<br>
#####p.s. Note to Hipster team: #####<br>
The Mate-Compiz diff backport was more complicated than
originally expected (gconf interfaces no longer in MATE).<br>
After 2 days of external jobbing I can finally continue with it.<br>
As announced on Tuesday I created a working MATE build env on a
SDHC Photo/Video-16GB card connected to and booted from my old
Lifebook via USB2 card reader. So I think tomorrow it should be
at a stage where it functions.<br>
