[2025-07-04T09:06:49Z] hi all [2025-07-04T09:39:17Z] welp [2025-07-04T09:39:21Z] the power really fucking sucks lately [2025-07-04T09:39:43Z] so much that it was my "can eat normal stuff day" and my fucking favourite local pub was without any electric power [2025-07-04T09:39:55Z] for the whole evening [2025-07-04T11:51:12Z] I build every firmware and I still cannot boot kiss linux without nomodeset :( [2025-07-04T11:51:42Z] esotericwarfare: do you have an initramfs [2025-07-04T11:51:53Z] Maybe it's the kernel version I use. I ran make defconfig and make localyesconfig enable every single CONFIG_... as core not as module [2025-07-04T11:51:56Z] riteo: no [2025-07-04T11:52:07Z] that's weird then [2025-07-04T11:52:18Z] you should see the kernel logs somehow [2025-07-04T11:52:28Z] there's surely some debug tool somewhere [2025-07-04T11:52:30Z] I installed Gentoo and I didn't even need the linux-firmware to boot [2025-07-04T11:52:49Z] even if that just means running "dmesg > /help.log" as root [2025-07-04T11:52:56Z] riteo: I can write and I can turn off my pc but I cannot see anything more than "Loading kernel..." [2025-07-04T11:53:10Z] if you can write then try doing that ig [2025-07-04T11:53:18Z] dump dmesg somewhere [2025-07-04T11:53:19Z] I can write my user and my password and write poweroff and my pc will turn off but I cannot see anything [2025-07-04T11:53:32Z] yea but if you dump dmesg then reboot with nomodeset you can see what's going wrong hopefully [2025-07-04T11:53:49Z] okay [2025-07-04T12:05:29Z] dmesg: https://paste.c-net.org/ToothedSlowly [2025-07-04T12:06:14Z] I paste there with curl --silent --databinary @dmesg.txt 'https://paste.c-net.org' [2025-07-04T12:06:24Z] --data-binary* [2025-07-04T12:41:26Z] riteo: When I run make INSTALL_MOD_STRIP=1 modules_install it says SYMLINK /lib/modules/6.15.4/build INSTALL /lib/modules/6.15.4/modules.order INSTALL /lib/modules/6.15.4/modules.builtin INSTALL /lib/modules/6.15.4/modules.builtin.modinfo DEPMOD /lib/modules/6.15.4 [2025-07-04T12:41:56Z] When in reality that command only has to output DEPMOD /lib/modules/6.15.4 without anything [2025-07-04T12:42:08Z] I check the make menuconfig but I didn't see any M [2025-07-04T12:51:52Z] esotericwarfare: did you disable module loading [2025-07-04T12:51:54Z] you can do that [2025-07-04T12:53:27Z] yes [2025-07-04T12:53:45Z] uh it's not even fetching the firmware [2025-07-04T12:53:47Z] that's weird [2025-07-04T12:54:22Z] do you not even see, like, ttys even if you switch them? [2025-07-04T12:54:29Z] the fact that it works with nomodeset is really weird [2025-07-04T12:54:40Z] riteo: No, I dont see anything I didn't try to run sway tho [2025-07-04T12:54:53Z] riteo: It happens to my running in virtualbox too [2025-07-04T12:55:08Z] It happened* [2025-07-04T12:55:21Z] gentoo says that you might need CONFIG_FRAMEBUFFER_CONSOLE [2025-07-04T12:55:40Z] or maybe just pass `acpi_osi="Linux"` to the kernel [2025-07-04T12:55:56Z] see https://wiki.gentoo.org/wiki/Intel#Black_screen [2025-07-04T12:56:00Z] maybe it's an hardware thing [2025-07-04T12:56:06Z] it's really weird [2025-07-04T12:56:31Z] riteo: I did that. I first add nomodeset but it wasn't working so I enable the CONFIG_FRAMEBUFFER_CONSOLE I tried with the acpi_osi="Linux" too [2025-07-04T12:59:59Z] I boot archlinux 6.6 I think and downloaded linux kernel 6.15.4 and run make localyesconfig enable every single CONFIG_ but maybe I should download the same kernel version that I was using on my archlinux live [2025-07-04T13:00:05Z] does the vga port work [2025-07-04T13:00:16Z] I wonder if it's redirecting everything to that [2025-07-04T13:00:37Z] I mean it should usually mirror everything to all displays but I'm really not suer what's going on [2025-07-04T13:00:43Z] I dont have a VGA port only HDMI [2025-07-04T13:01:00Z] uh [2025-07-04T13:01:02Z] well that then [2025-07-04T13:01:07Z] the kernel reports a vga connector too [2025-07-04T13:01:10Z] maybe it's unwired [2025-07-04T13:04:08Z] there's apparently a `video=` argument and I'm reading that some old intel users had to specify that manually [2025-07-04T13:04:12Z] https://bbs.archlinux.org/viewtopic.php?id=145648 [2025-07-04T13:04:40Z] riteo: I'll check that [2025-07-04T13:05:07Z] although note that you definitely don't have lvds, just edp [2025-07-04T13:10:46Z] so I should add video=card0-eDP-1:d ? [2025-07-04T13:10:58Z] I don't know I never did this [2025-07-04T13:14:46Z] me neither :P [2025-07-04T13:15:50Z] I'd first see what happens through the hdmi honestly [2025-07-04T13:16:10Z] Okay [2025-07-04T13:16:26Z] Thanks [2025-07-04T13:17:41Z] hope they read the logs [2025-07-04T13:17:42Z] in case [2025-07-04T13:17:43Z] https://www.kernel.org/doc/Documentation/fb/modedb.rst [2025-07-04T13:18:06Z] :d disables the output so it's definitely not it, although it might be wise to manually set it ig [2025-07-04T13:18:56Z] maybe ':e' or ':D' might help [2025-07-04T13:19:01Z] those look so much like smileys lmao [2025-07-04T13:23:17Z] riteo: I booted with nomodeset and I did a cd Videos mpv . [2025-07-04T13:23:25Z] and the video opened [2025-07-04T13:24:09Z] before I downloaded a video with yt-dlp so I tried to run sway with seatd-launch and it did not work [2025-07-04T13:24:59Z] so maybe it's some config_framebuffer_console I don't know but I have that enable I'll check that again [2025-07-04T13:26:05Z] https://paste.c-net.org/ShamedNellie thats the output from running seatd-launch sway [2025-07-04T13:26:39Z] If I run with nomodeset it outputs: 0 GPU detected that same command so something is working [2025-07-04T13:26:47Z] If I boot* [2025-07-04T13:28:43Z] My user is on the video group [2025-07-04T13:41:17Z] riteo: it didd run sway with seatd-launch sway but I don't know if the keyboard was working because it did not open foot [2025-07-04T13:41:32Z] all with broken fonts [2025-07-04T13:55:08Z] I compile the kernel with CONFIG_FB_VESA maybe I need to disable that. My PC has Legacy BOOT compatibility [2025-07-04T14:02:52Z] esotericwarfare: looks like the :d thing disables the output btw [2025-07-04T14:02:56Z] https://www.kernel.org/doc/Documentation/fb/modedb.rst [2025-07-04T14:03:11Z] with nomodeset you disable a lot of stuff [2025-07-04T14:03:17Z] so I wouldn't rely on it tbh [2025-07-04T14:03:42Z] no wait [2025-07-04T14:04:04Z] ughhhhhhh tbf I'm not entirely sure how much kernel modesetting might be useful but IIRC most wayland compositors depend on that [2025-07-04T14:04:07Z] https://wiki.archlinux.org/title/Kernel_mode_setting for reference [2025-07-04T14:07:53Z] riteo: I run without nomodeset and without the video= parameter and sway did open but I have to write the command blind because I cannot see the TTY [2025-07-04T14:08:14Z] I can watch videos con mpv with DRM from the TTY but I cannot see what I'm typing [2025-07-04T14:08:23Z] with* [2025-07-04T14:09:11Z] that's interesting [2025-07-04T14:09:26Z] so sway works uh? [2025-07-04T14:09:31Z] I guess the issue is with the tty then [2025-07-04T14:09:36Z] yes [2025-07-04T14:09:41Z] do you have getty running [2025-07-04T14:10:19Z] the tty only works when I write nomodeset [2025-07-04T14:10:35Z] yea but is it still running [2025-07-04T14:10:43Z] even without nomodeset [2025-07-04T14:11:48Z] I guess yes because I can type my user and password [2025-07-04T14:11:58Z] but I don't know how do I check [2025-07-04T14:12:16Z] well on sway you can check on htop [2025-07-04T14:12:46Z] haha I need to reboot [2025-07-04T14:12:54Z] I think I found it [2025-07-04T14:12:56Z] printk: legacy console [tty0] enabled [2025-07-04T14:13:16Z] nvm [2025-07-04T14:16:26Z] riteo: Now I'm running sway again, I installed the terminus font [2025-07-04T14:16:37Z] ps aux | grep getty throws me nothing [2025-07-04T14:16:43Z] wat [2025-07-04T14:16:52Z] what if you run it [2025-07-04T14:16:58Z] as root [2025-07-04T14:17:01Z] wait [2025-07-04T14:17:05Z] nothing [2025-07-04T14:17:11Z] getty 38400 tty1 [2025-07-04T14:17:15Z] or getty 38400 tty2 [2025-07-04T14:17:28Z] and then you switch to it [2025-07-04T14:17:36Z] getty 38400 tty1 operation not permitted [2025-07-04T14:17:42Z] as root [2025-07-04T14:17:46Z] tty2?
