Laptop Monitor fine when booting from live usb, then fails after installation <SOLVED>

[biologopaco]

after xrandr --newmode "1024x768_60.00" 63.50 1024 1072 1176 1328 768 771 775 798 -hsync +vsync
no problem.

after xrandr --addmode LVDS1 1024x768_60

i got:
xrandr: cannot find mode "1024x768_60"

and then after xrandr --output LVDS1 --mode 1024x768

also: xrandr: cannot find mode 1024x768

it is indeed strange

[roblm]

Try the xrandr commands again with this Modeline:

Code: Select all

xrandr --newmode  "1024x768_60.00"  65.00  1024 1048 1184 1344  768 771 777 806  -hsync -vsync
xrandr --addmode LVDS1 1024x768_60 
xrandr --output LVDS1 --mode 1024x768

If that fails, then use this Modeline:

Code: Select all

xrandr --newmode "1024x768R"   56.00  1024 1072 1104 1184  768 771 775 790  +hsync -vsync 
xrandr --addmode LVDS1 1024x768R
xrandr --output LVDS1 --mode 1024x768R

If that fails, then use this xorg.conf file:

Code: Select all

Section "ServerLayout"
   Identifier   "Layout0"
   Screen   0 "Screen0" 0 0 
EndSection

Section "Monitor"
   Identifier    "Monitor0"
   HorizSync       24.0 - 94.0	   
   VertRefresh     24.0 - 60.0
   Modeline "1024x768_60.00"  65.00  1024 1048 1184 1344  768 771 777 806  -hsync -vsync
   Option "PreferredMode" "1024x768"
EndSection

Section "Device"
   Identifier   "Device0"
   Driver   "intel"   
   Option "Monitor-LVDS1" "Monitor0"
EndSection

Section "Screen"
   Identifier   "Screen0"
   Device   "Device0"
   Monitor   "Monitor0"
   DefaultDepth   24
   SubSection     "Display"
      Depth       24
      Modes "1024x768" 
   EndSubSection
EndSection

Log out and back in and open Settings > Display. Mark the checkbox next to Configure new displays when connected and click the Identify Displays button. Then select the 1024x768 resolution if it is listed and click the Apply button. Don't click Apply if the resolution is not listed or it will generate a new displays.xml file.

still no luck, when using the addmode in xrandr, got the usual cannot find mode. Except when using this:

xrandr --newmode "1024x768R" 56.00 1024 1072 1104 1184 768 771 775 790 +hsync -vsync
(no error message)
xrandr --addmode LVDS1 1024x768R
then:
X Error of failed request: BadMatch (invalid parameter attributes)
Major opcode of failed request: 140 (RANDR)
Minor opcode of failed request: 18 (RRAddOutputMode)
Serial number of failed request: 27
Current serial number in output stream: 28

then changed the xorg file, still no luck, and in display, still only 640x480 is the only option, even after selecting configure new displays when connected and clicking the identify display.
Still no luck!

[biologopaco]

also, at the end, the xrandr output is:

Do you have a dual-boot with Windows. If so, there is another method that can be used.

If not, go to Settings > Display and click the Apply button. Then go to
/home/your-user-name/.config/xfce4/xfconf/xfce-perchannel-xml and post the contents of the displays.xml file.

[biologopaco]

I don't have dual boot with windows in this laptop, It originally came with WinXP, but I erased it already.

display.xml looks like this:

Code: Select all

<?xml version="1.0" encoding="UTF-8"?>

<channel name="displays" version="1.0">
  <property name="Notify" type="bool" value="true"/>
  <property name="Default" type="empty">
    <property name="LVDS1" type="string" value="Portátil">
      <property name="Active" type="bool" value="true"/>
      <property name="Resolution" type="string" value="640x480"/>
      <property name="RefreshRate" type="double" value="60.003840"/>
      <property name="Rotation" type="int" value="0"/>
      <property name="Reflection" type="string" value="0"/>
      <property name="Primary" type="bool" value="false"/>
      <property name="Position" type="empty">
        <property name="X" type="int" value="0"/>
        <property name="Y" type="int" value="0"/>
      </property>
    </property>
  </property>
</channel>

[roblm]

I assume the word Portatil in this line means laptop in a different language:

<property name="LVDS1" type="string" value="Portátil">

This line shows a refresh rate slightly above 60:

Code: Select all

<property name="RefreshRate" type="double" value="60.003840"/>

Open the xorg.conf file and change the line VertRefresh 24.0 - 60.0 to VertRefresh 24.0 - 61.0 in the Monitor section. Repeat the steps previously done.

If that fails, then go to /home/your-user-name/.config/xfce4/xfconf/xfce-perchannel-xml, open the displays.xml file and change this line (line 6):

Code: Select all

<property name="Resolution" type="string" value="640x480"/>

To this

Code: Select all

<property name="Resolution" type="string" value="1024x768"/>

Log out and back in and repeat the steps previously used.

If that fails, then post the Xorg.0.log file. Use this command to open it:

Code: Select all

gedit /var/log/Xorg.0.log

Press Ctrl+A to select the entire file contents. Right click on the screen and select “Copy”. Don't save it to a file. Open the Mint Forum reply window and select “Code” in the menu. Press Ctrl+V to paste the lines between the two code words. If you have problems posting that long file, then upload it to github.com by using this command:

Code: Select all

pastebin /var/log/Xorg.0.log

Post the URL link that displays in the Terminal window.

Then run the Mint Xfce Installation USB again and copy the Xorg.0.log file and post it.

[biologopaco]

Still not succes, however, I think there may be some clues in the logs.

Ok, seems there is some partial success:

after changing the xorg.conf file, the screen stayed the same, except the font of the headings was markedly reduced (for example the font of the "welcome screen" window). After changing the grub file to LVDS-1:1024x768, the screen become unstable, with heavy flickering and was not possible to read from it. After ssh into the laptop from another computer, I changed the grub file again adding the line with the drm_kms_helper.edid. and updated grub. After rebooting again, this time the laptop seemed to be stuck, as only a blank screen was visible, and was not possible to ssh into it even after a long period of time (to complete booting in case only the screen was unresponsive). At this point I did a hard reset (press the on button for several seconds to do a hard shut down), and the laptop when directly into the grub boot menu (it usually only goes there when I press the shift key). After selecting the normal start (first choice in the menu), this time the computer boots correctly.... and with the correct display resolution!
so hooray?
well, after restarting, I don't get the grub menu this time, instead goes directly into the same blank screen going nowhere. Now I do hard reboot again, got the grub menu, select normal booting, and get the correct resolution screen!
So almost there!

here is the output of Xorg.0.log (with the correct screen resolution)

Interestingly, if I restart the system (so not a hard reboot, from the good resolution screen) and use shift key to go to the grub menu, and select a normal start, I again get a blank screen, so it is only after a hard reboot (>5 sec holding the power button) and grub menu booting that I get a working screen resolution.

[roblm]

So if I understand correctly, when you pressed and continued to hold down the power button, the laptop didn't shut down like it normally does, but went directly to the grub menu? I've never heard of that happening.

I didn't realize using those parameters would cause that kind of startup problem. Perhaps because of the age of your laptop. I've never seen that with all the testing I've done. To reverse any changes you make to the grub file, you can try to enter tty1 or Recovery Mode. If those don't work, then you can run a live session using the Mint Installation DVD or USB stick to get access to that file.

I don't know if this will make a difference but it's worth trying. To make the GRUB menu always visible at each startup, use this command in the Terminal to open the grub file:

Code: Select all

gksudo gedit /etc/default/grub

Add a hash mark to the beginning of this line:

Code: Select all

GRUB_HIDDEN_TIMEOUT=0

So it will look like this:

Code: Select all

# GRUB_HIDDEN_TIMEOUT=0

Then update grub with this command: sudo update-grub

[biologopaco]

Sorry!, I think I did not explain it correctly I meant to say that whenever the laptop (or other computer) becomes unresponsive, I just press and hold down the power button (for about 5-10 secs) until the laptop turns off, so basically something similar as to unplug the computer and take out the battery. So after shutting down the laptop in this way, and then press the power button to start it again, I get the grub menu, I suppose this is because I fail to shut it down properly, since when I shut down the computer properly, as in alt-f4 and then selecting shut down (or restart), and then start it again, I don't usually get the grub menu.
Also, when I shut down the computer properly (as in alt-f4) and then when restarting, I press the shift key, I also get the grub menu. But in this case, after selecting normal start (first choice in the grub menu) I still get the blank screen and the computer hang.
So only after doing the following: laptop hang with blank screen -> press+hold power button for hard shut down -> grub menu -> select normal start -> normal screen resolution
If I then do: normal screen resolution -> alt-f4 -> restart -> hold down shift key -> grub menu -> select normal start -> I get laptop hang with blank screen

now, after changing the grub file to # GRUB_HIDDEN_TIMEOUT=0 ... I still get my laptop with an unresponsive blank screen.

So, the difference is that when properly shut down, the computer wont restart properly, but after a forced shut down (press and hold power button...) the computer restarts properly and with the right resolution.... quite weird!
As you said, perhaps is the age of the laptop!

The xrandr --verbose output shows an EDID. I extracted the contents of it and used the info to create a Modeline and this one had different values than the other 3 that were used. I also added the Horizontal and Vertical frequency ranges from that EDID in this new xorg.conf file you can test:

After changing the xorg.conf file, I still get the same result: computer hangs and only after a hard shut down the proper screen resolution shows up.

[roblm]

So, the difference is that when properly shut down, the computer wont restart properly, but after a forced shut down (press and hold power button...) the computer restarts properly and with the right resolution

I don't understand how that can make any difference, because the parameters added to the kernel command line are executed after the selection is made in the GRUB menu. It looks like you stumbled into a very interesting discovery. I wonder if that method works if you remove the last kernel parameter that was added to the grub file.

I'll have to think this over some more. As a last resort you could remove the intel driver and try using the vesa driver, but it provides no 3D graphics acceleration, or try using Ubuntu, which I think has a little better hardware support than Mint.

[biologopaco]

I think you are right, it should not make a difference. I also noticed the same results when installing mint 18.1 xcfe, and lubuntu 16.10: fine in live mode, wrong resolution after installing.

Also interesting, removing the kernel parameters allows for successful booting (no hanged blank screens ) with 640x480 screen. Doing a forced shut down at this stage does not lead to a grub menu and does not give a good screen, perhaps because the system senses that the initial boot process was completed successfully, whereas with a hang blank screen, it does not complete booting successfully.
But... if I do a forced shut down *before* the booting process is completed, that is, before I get to see the xcfe desktop.... I do get the grub menu upon restarting, meaning the system sensed that booting was not properly completed the last time it was started, and now I do get the correct screen resolution!
So it was not because the kernel parameters, but because I was not completing the booting up process successfully, I was getting the grub menu (to solve any potential problems causing the failed booting probably), and the getting the correct screen size.

Thank you for all your help!!

[roblm]

When you removed the kernel parameters from the grub file, I hope you remembered to update grub after that.

It appears the drm_kms_helper.edid_firmware parameter did have an effect. When you posted the xrandr --verbose output from using the Live USB, it did not show a EDID, but the last output did, after adding that parameter.

If you do a Google search for “Not using mode (exceeds panel dimensions)”, that problem has been reported by many others using many different distros, and I have not read any solution that worked.

Here is something you can try. Open the xorg.conf file and change the line DisplaySize 270 203 in the Monitor section to
DisplaySize 355 266. That info was also in the EDID.
Then add the drm_kms_helper.edid_firmware parameter to grub, update grub and reboot. At the desktop try using this command again:

Code: Select all

xrandr --output LVDS1 --mode 1024x768 --rate 60

If that fails, then remove the xorg.conf file by renaming it:

Code: Select all

sudo mv /etc/X11/xorg.conf /etc/X11/xorg.conf.old

Reboot and at the desktop use the xrandr command again. To restore the xorg.conf file:

Code: Select all

sudo mv /etc/X11/xorg.conf.old /etc/X11/xorg.conf

Also, your system is set to show the grub menu now on a normal boot. When you get there, don't press the ENTER key, but just wait 10 seconds to allow it to start automatically.

[biologopaco]

Ok So I did the changes, but I still get a hang up system with a blank screen, and then after the hard shut down, a system with proper screen resolution.
So lets see if I am doing all the changes right:

You did all the changes correctly.

Here is another method to try. The EDID below is not from the laptop's display but from using the drm_kms_helper parameter. The kernel has generic built-in EDIDs for standard resolutions to be used in situations where no correctly working EDID is available.
Copy the lines below, open the text editor and paste them:

Code: Select all

00ffffffffffff0031d8000000000000
051601036d231a78ea5ec0a4594a9825

004c696e7578205847410a2020200055

Save the file as .edid.txt in Home (/home/your-user-name). Open the Terminal and use this command to convert the data from hex to binary format and save it to a file named .edid.bin in Home. It will be hidden:

Code: Select all

xxd -r -p .edid.txt .edid.bin

Open the existing xorg.conf file, remove all the lines and add these, changing your-user-name to your actual user name:

Code: Select all

Section "Device"
   Identifier   "Device0"
   Driver   "intel"   
   Option "CustomEDID" "LVDS1:/home/your-user-name/.edid.bin"
EndSection

If that fails, then post the Xorg.0.log file.

Hi. I made the filesm and changed the xorg.conf file so it only includes the 5 lines of the section device.
But it still gives a hanged blank screen after rebooting. At this point instead of doing a hard power off and rebooting from the hard drive, I rebooted from a live usb in order to get the Xorg.0.log file made from the booting that leaded to the hanged screen.
Here is that Xorg.0.log file
