Debian :: Plymouth - Cannot Reserve Video Memory At 0xdf00000
Sep 13, 2015
I'm trying to install plymouth on my Debian 8.2 Jessie (Stable), but when I boot my pc I get this error:
Code: Select alluvesafb: cannot reserve video memory at 0xdf000000
This is my configuration:
Code: Select allcat /etc/default/grub
# If you change this file, run 'update-grub' afterwards to update
# /boot/grub/grub.cfg.
# For full documentation of the options in this file, see:

I have a problem with Plymouth. It works pretty well on low res, but on higher resolution some strange video artefacts appear - see attachments.
I use ATI proprietary drivers, if it has something to do with it.
The resolution is set in /etc/default/grub like this:
Code:
GRUB_GFXMODE=1024x768
GRUB_GFXPAYLOAD_LINUX=1024x768x32
edit: reducing colour depth doesn't help /end edit
I don't know whether it has anything to do with the current problem, but Plymouth used not to appear at all until I followed these instructions (or actually I took them from another thread but I can't find it at the moment and these are the same).
I don't know whether it's possible to take them during booting so I've taken these photos with a mobile and retouched in gimp to remove reflections (more or less), and since I'm no pro photographer nor photoshop/gimp master they look as they look. They should do to demonstrate the problem, though.

Code: Select all# plymouth-set-default-theme --list
details
joy
lines
spacefun
text
tribar
These are the plymouth themes available.
I've tried to preview every themes (using this script [URL[....), but they're all the same, just three dots except for "details" and "tribar". I've tried to use one of those three dots theme too and yes the bootsplash is three dots.
I've opened /usr/share/plymouth/themes/spacefun/ and saw that it shouldn't be like that. It should be something with blue background and Debian logo.
I've used this Wiki page as reference: [URL] .... I'm using Jessie.

I installed (debian-jessie-DI-rc3-amd64-DVD [testing]) on both my laptop and desktop. After I installed plymouth and some themes, on the laptop I entered into the terminal to steup and activate the theme like so:
Code: Select all<USER>@<USER>-Aspire-5336:~$ su -
Password:
root@<USER>-Aspire-5336:~# /usr/sbin/plymouth-set-default-theme --list
aurora-borealis
debian-logo
debian-sunrise-blue
debian-sunrise-mono
debian-vizta
[CODE] ....
It wouldn't load the plymouth theme. Now I installed (debian-jessie-8.0.0-amd64-DVD [stable]) only on the laptop so far, and used the same process as with (debian-jessie-DI-rc3-amd64-DVD [testing]) for installing plymouth and when it got to where it said it was missing firmware I fallowed the:
Code: Select allroot@<USER>-Aspire-5336:~# apt-get install firmware-linux-nonfree
It loaded the firmware just fine. But after I...
Code: Select allupdate-initramfs -u
...and then rebooted the system, the plymouth theme didn't load just like the desktop when I installed (debian-jessie-DI-rc3-amd64-DVD [testing]) on it. I looked at the /etc/plymouth/plymouthd.conf and it reads:
Code: Select all# Administrator customizations go in this file
#[Daemon]
#Theme=text
#ShowDelay=0
[Daemon]
Theme=debian-sunrise-blue

I've been trying to setup Plymouth on Debian Squeeze, but have only been partially successful: Plymouth works with shutdown (i.e. I see Plymouth after I tell the computer to shut down), but not when I start up my computer (before it reaches GDM). In other words, Plymouth seems to work with my graphics, but for some reason does not show up at startup (not even briefly, as far as I can tell). I've searched the forums and followed this advice, as well as the instructions found here: [URL] but neither of those worked. I'm running Debian Testing (Squeeze) on a Thinkpad X41, which uses "Intel Corporation Mobile 915GM/GMS/910GML Express Graphics Controller" for graphics.

My hardware is >> Core 2 Duo 8400, GT 740 GDDR5 and 2 Hd of 500GB.

I am new to linux... and I have Installed Debian as my default OS replacing Ubuntu.
I have Installed Plymouth:
# apt-get install plymouth
# /usr/sbin/plymouth-set-default-theme --list
# /usr/sbin/plymouth-set-default-theme THEME
# update-initramfs -u
Plymouth does not work. What went wrong? or what more should I do to make it work.Also how do I install themes to plymouth, which are not there in the theme package? I have come across this theme I really like but it is in tar.gz and I am looking for some guidance from the forum to run tar.gz packages.

I have have to write a video device driver, but rendering will happening in memory, not on a physical card. I already wrote a simple driver stripping out hardware piece code from an existent vodoo driver. I an install it, uninstall it but i dont know how to map it to a file /dev/mydevice_video
Is there a field in fb_info or fb_vscreenifo where the device name has to be passed before calling register_framebuffer.

I just got a Sony DCR-DVD108. It uses a mini dvd and a memory stick pro duo. It was a gift, and it's the first time through the rodeo for me using this set up. I can get the card recognized when I plug it in using a card reader. I want to record video, and that's where I run into problems. When I insert it, I get something saying that I have still photos, and Shotwell is the default photo software. That would be OK if I had still photos, but like I said, I'm going for video with this set up. I have VLC, but when I tell VLC to "open capture device" under "Media" it gives me a dialog box with (I think) Linux 2 as the capture method (this is going to get a little fuzzy as I have no idea what it's looking for here) and a couple of blanks that need filled in. I may be going about this bass-ackwards, in fact I probably am, but like I said, this is the first time I've messed with a memory stick pro duo. I guess since it's Sony they want me to go out and buy a Play Station to get this to work. I don't think I want to go there. I might be barking up the wrong forest with VLC, but Wikipedia says it will play it.

I'm trying to increase my framerate on World of Warcraft, and I'm not sure if this will help but it should in theory. I'm not even sure if I'm right in my assumption that it's currently non-optimal. nvidia-settings reports the full 1024MB of onboard video memory from my 420GT, but lspci reports three separate figures which don't even add up to 256MB:
[Code]....
Now, I don't know which to trust, is all the video memory being detected or just the pittance that lspci reports? To my mind, more graphics memory means you can store more graphical code and data closer to the gpu resulting in faster framerates, right?

That's the message I see briefly right before I am booted into Ubuntu Meerkat. It's right after the boot menu and the boot into Ubuntu begins and the screen is still black when that message appears.

I run a few programs that are very resource intensive, and although my computer has 4 cores, it keeps "freezing": it still works, I can see that my downloads keep on going, it's just too slow to show me a terminal screen so that I can kill whatever program got out of line.
It may be a bit complicated, but I suppose that there should be a way to do it: how can I keep some "cpu usage" from being used? I don't know, maybe reserve a core for management? Or throw the problematic programs in a "box" of limited processing power?
I'm sorry if this is a really dumb question, I'm a bit of a noob, but that would help me a lot. Of course, if someone has a better suggestion for my problem, I'd appreciate it very much.

I have several environments in which I am using Thin Clients as terminal emulators to Red Hat servers. I have been deploying Thin Clients for the past few years to replace old WYSE dumb terminals. One problem I am having is that the dumb terminals were serial so they were on a specific tty port. The Thin Clients however connect on the first available pts port, I really don't have control over the port each Thin Client connects on, other then possibly making sure they are always started in a certain order, which isn't a feasible option. What I am wondering is if anyone knows a way to control which pts port a thin client connects on; I'm guessing it would have to be by hostname or IP, I just can't figure out how.

What's up with this log message?
shpchp 0000:00:01.0: Cannot reserve MMIO region
After grub loads I get a flashing cursor then I get this message on the screen.
This is what I found in dmesg:
shpchp 0000:00:01.0: HPC vendor_id 1022 device_id 9602 ss_vid 0 ss_did 0
shpchp 0000:00:01.0: Cannot reserve MMIO region
shpchp: Standard Hot Plug PCI Controller Driver version: 0.4
I'm running an AMD laptop With Lucid x86_64, a custom install I did off the alternate iso with onlyLXDE installed.
All my hardware works fine and this just seems like some sort of bug.
Is there anyway I can silence all kernel messages at bootup?
This is what I have in /etc/default/grub and it's not working to silence it.
GRUB_CMDLINE_LINUX_DEFAULT="loglevel=0 splash"

In gparted I have the following stats for my /home drive
size: 824 gb
used 75.51 gb
unused 748.59 gb
Now when I view this in nautilus it shows something else: remaining free space as 709 gb. My question is what happened to the 40gbs? the 75.51gb are my files, but where did the 40gbs go to? Because 709 (total remaining) + 75 (my files) + 40 (mysteriously lost gbs) = 824gb. When I first made the partiton, it was a 824gb partition and ubuntu had automatically at that point reserved about 40gb for something. Does anyone know why Ubuntu reserved this space?

I am somewhat familiar with SGE (Sun Grid Engine, now Oracle Grid Engine) commands but am having a problem when running parallel jobs.
Present Machine configuration:
machine I - 12 cpus
machine II - 12 cpus
machine III - 12 cpus
.... so on ...
One_machine - 16 cpus
(I have all machine of 12 cpus and 1 machine having 16 cpus)
I want to schedule jobs on these machine such that if I ask for 12 cpus - my jobs should execute on any of the machines which has all 12 free cpus (eg machine I or machine II) in this case.
Eg. suppose I ask for 24 cpus
Option I : 12@machine1 12@machine2 ----- I need this
Options II : 10@machin1 10@machine2 4@machine3 ---- I don't need such a distribution
Hence, Option I is ideal here. Also, when running 12 jobs on machine1 (say) - even if all 12 cpus are not being used at some instance of time, none of the 12 cpus should be freed.
In short, until my run finishes, all blocked cpus should remain blocked.
If you may understand, the purpose here is to run some performance tests.
I'm using 'qrsh' to launch jobs.

I'm using a slack 13.37 version and this message is occuring during wine apps running:
preloader: Warning: failed to reserve range 00010000-00110000
Instead of being only a warning, I think it's breaking down and don't know exactly it's a wine or OS problem.
Googling point me a wine problem,

and another Ubuntu and Wine topics .

I have an integrated intel video and latest xserver-xorg-video-intel driver(using only stable repo). Now I wanna watch high-res video. From the bits of info collected from all over internet I understood that I need to:
1.aptitude install libdrm libva.
2.compile or find the .deb mplayer-vaapi and install it.
3.add -vo vaapi -va vaapi to the mplayer command line in gnome-mplayer.
My question : is that correct or did I miss something? Do I have to compile latest libdrm and libva or the ones from the squeeze repo will be good? Do I need kms enabled, i.e. install firmware-linux-nonfree?
