New kernels

Hi
Have you seen the color error in cairo-dock. Background color should be transparent but is violet.

Thanks goodness it works. It seems, the Radeon DRM driver works again.
Many thanks for testing!

Have a nice day too.

Maybe updates are responsible for this issue.

Could you please test it with the alpha4?

Hi
Its the same with 6.12_a4 but but I discovered that I had not selected the window manager in mate tweaks
and therefore I selected marco Xpresent and now the background became invisible. There are still some icons with errors in the colors

Its the same with 6.12_a4

OK, it is not a kernel issue.

Hi All,

I tested the alpha6 on my X5000/40 today and it doesn't boot.

I connected my X5000/40 with a null modem RS-232 serial cable to my PC for getting error messages.

Code: Select all

X5000> setenv bootargs root=/dev/sda4 console=ttyS0,115200

Log file: PuTTY_P5040_U-Boot.log

The X5000/20 isn't affected.

I reported this issue to the kernel developers: FSL P5040 board doesn't boot after DRM updates (drm-next-2024-09-19)

I tested the latest Git kernel with my VAPOR-X Radeon HD5870 1GB GDDR5 PCI-E DUAL DVI-I/HDMI/DP on my X1000 today.
Unfortunately it has the same issue like my X5000/40.

I think it depends on which graphics card is used.

It could be, that the X5000/20 is also affected.

Hi All,

The merge window is over. Linus Torvalds has released the RC1 of kernel 6.12 for testing.

I compiled it with the Radeon DRM driver from the kernel 6.11 for the X1000 and X5000 today.

Download and further information: github.com

Alternative download link: linux-image-6.12-rc1-X1000_X5000.tar.gz (xenosoft.de)

Please test the kernels.

Thanks,
Christian
