Hello,
I have been testing Jessie on my new Samsung ARM Chromebook 2, running armhf
architecture (using the Google Chromium Linux kernel).
Out of the box, I had problems with the xserver starting. I have included the
Xorg.0.log at the end of the email.
In order to get the xserver working, I needed to create a config fragment.
Section "Device"
Identifier "Card0"
Driver "fbdev"
EndSection
Then everything works well.
I've done a little digging into the driver and it appears that the probe
function, FBDevProbe, fails unless there is the above config fragment. In
particular, xf86ClaimFbSlot and xf86ConfigFbEntity appear to return errors.
I am not an expert at X11, so don't know if this behaviour is normal. I didn't
expect it :-).
Thanks,
