Launch Xorg works on laptop but not on external display

lunario · 2019-01-18 17:10:11

I am running devuan ascii on a Thinkpad X60. When I launch X with "startx" without an external screen attached, it works just fine. If I attach a second screen when I am already in my window manager, I can also switch to that easily with xrandr. However, if my laptop is attached to an external screen while I am on the tty still (i.e. before "startx"), Xserver briefly tries to launch but then closes again. Any ideas for why this could be? I read through the log file and wondered whether "pipe 1 / pipe 0" in the second log might be the problem, as the external screen seems to have no pipe. But I don't really know much about that aspect of X,so maybe that has nothing to do with anything. Could you be so kind and help me find out what the problem is?

First, here is the log when X starts normally (i.e. no second screen attached):

Attaching an external screen to a laptop with Xorg may cause strange results. As far as I ~~know~~ have learned the last decade, any problem of this kind can be solved despite there is a lack of documentation. Let's try:

lunario wrote:

... launch X with "startx" ... while I am on the tty (and attach external monitor afterwards) ... Xserver briefly tries to launch but then closes again. ...

It's hard to figure out when (at which point) things went wrong between case #1 "X starts normally" and case #2 "when it does not work". Looking at the beginning of both logs slightly stripped:

lunario wrote:

X.Org X Server 1.19.2

... (WW) warning, (EE) error, (NI) not implemented, (??) unknown.
.... (==) Log file: "/home/.../.local/share/xorg/Xorg.0.log", Time: ...

Then there are a lot of lines about what Xorg automagically guesses about keyboard, video and mouse. (KVM you know?). Now read the log of case #2 backwards:

Ah, huu ... is there a need to mark the relevant string? IMHO this problem looks like the (really stable:-) devuan/ascii was bitten by some "scope creep". Further investigation needed.

It's common usage on a laptop, but rarely on stationary computers, to connect an external monitor or projector to the running system. On devuan/ascii the xserver was startet by slim on "VT number 7" and less /var/log/Xorg.0.log shows:

[...] (II) systemd-logind: logind integration requires -keeptty and -keep tty was not provided, disabling logind integration

Nice to see, but note 1: Once upon a time a collegue asks for help about his black screen. My final answer was: NEVER EVER hot plug VGA again with your next monitor! I summe this is true for DVI, but not for HDMI. Nevertheless: On my devuan/ascii-i686 i can simulate connect/disconnect trought power on/off my KVM switch.

The next step was to prevent X from starting by disabling /etc/rc?.d/S04slim. then shutdown, disconnect monitor, boot and login on tty1 , connect monitor and startx. BTW: the logfiles goes to $HOME/.local/share/xorg/Xorg.0.log:

[...] (++) using VT number 1
[...] (II) systemd-logind: took control of session /org/freedesktop/login1/session/_31
[...] (II) xfree86: Adding drm device (/dev/dri/card0)
[...] (II) systemd-logind: got fd for /dev/dri/card0 226:0 fd 11 paused 0
...

WTF? What tooks control? And why is xfree86 mentioned? Ok, on my hardware X starts despite of this. This may be difference between acer travelmate (ascii 32bit) and thinkpadX60. But see with VGA1 as laptop and LVDS1 as external:

...
[...] (WW) intel(0): Output LVDS1: Strange aspect ratio (304/22800), consider adding a quirk
[...] (II) intel(0): resizing framebuffer to 2304x1024
[...] (II) intel(0): switch to mode 1024x768@60.0 on LVDS1 using pipe 1, position (1280, 256), rotation normal, reflection none
[...] (II) intel(0): switch to mode 1280x1024@60.0 on VGA1 using pipe 0, position (0, 0), rotation normal, reflection none
[...] (**) Option "fd" "22"

The last line "(**) from config file" is repeatet for more "fd" (file descriptors?), log ends up with

[...] (II) UnloadModule: "libinput"
[...] (II) systemd-logind: not releasing fd for 13:71, still in use
[...] (II) UnloadModule: "libinput"
[...] (II) systemd-logind: releasing fd for 13:73
...
[...] (II) UnloadModule: "libinput"
[...] (II) systemd-logind: releasing fd for 13:67
[...] (II) Server terminated successfully (0). Closing log file.

As my X starts there is a $HOME/.xsession-errors with lines:
dbus-update-activation-environment: systemd --user not found, ignoring --systemd argument

Summary: It's not nice to know, that systemd has found an backdoor entry to my current devuan_ascii i386_desktop-live. Although devuan/ascii keeps on running stable, is this problem worth a bug report?

Update: while reviewing lunario's point of view
...
[ 76.733] (II) Using input driver 'wacom' for 'Serial Wacom Tablet WACf004'
[ 76.734] (EE) systemd-logind: failed to take device /dev/ttyS0: No such device
[ 76.734] (**) Serial Wacom Tablet WACf004: always reports core events
...

there is a bug report 232 "xserver-xorg-input-wacom: starting X session results in permanent black screen" already, dated 8 Aug 2018 16:03:01 UTC. IMHO hard to resolve.
