xorg status on sparc
-----BEGIN PGP SIGNED MESSAGE-----
Hash: SHA1
Hi,
I have recently volunteered to maintain the xorg drivers for the cards
most commonly found on sparc hardware: sunbw2, suncg14, suncg3, suncg6,
sunffb, sunleo and suntcx. These packages have not been uploaded yet, I've
prepared an upload based on David's excellent work, and would appreciate
if someone would commit the attached patch to svn. If there are no
objections, I would like to upload these packages to unstable tomorrow
(Sunday).
There are a few issues that I know of which currently affect the sparc
port:
* Under some circumstances xorg hangs the machine hard while loading
modules (most commonly xaa and ramdac), in some cases the on-disk module
files are getting corrupt as a result (!). I have not be able to
reproduce the problem myself, but plan to look into it. Additional
information may be found in threads:
http://lists.debian.org/debian-sparc/2006/05/msg00001.html
http://lists.debian.org/debian-sparc/2006/06/msg00063.html
* It looks like driver autodetection is not doing a very good job. I've
seen the driver "fbdev" being chosen on a couple of occasions, which is
most probably wrong. The framebuffer driver on sparc is sunffb. I plan to
look at it (as I understand the part which generates the config file on
fresh install is the config script of xserver-xorg).
* Bug 368214: wrong keyboard layout is chosen for on sparc with 2.6
kernels.
* Bug 352869: sunffb driver depends on symbols from cfb and cfb32 modules,
which are not included in the default configuration file.
Please let me know if you have any input on any of these issues.
Best regards,
Jurij Smakov jurij@wooyd.org
