Intel Xorg Driver For Intel HD Graphics

I found this page:
https://01.org/linuxgraphics/downloads/2015q4-intel-graphics-stack-release

I have an Intel NUC5C with “Intel HD” graphics and I’m trying to use CentOS
7.2

I downloaded the files suggested:
cairo-1.14.4.tar.xz libva-1.6.2.tar.bz2
mesa-11.0.4.tar.xz intel-gpu-tools-1.13.tar.bz2 libva-intel-driver-1.6.2.tar.bz2
xf86-video-intel-2.99.917.tar.gz libdrm-2.4.65.tar.gz xorg-server-1.18.0.tar.bz2

and compiled, then installed them. All are working except the final one xorg-server-1.18

On the configure I get these errors:
configure: error: Package requirements (fixesproto >= 5.0 damageproto >1.1 xcmiscproto >= 1.2.0 xtrans >= 1.3.5 bigreqsproto >= 1.1.0 xproto >7.0.28 randrproto >= 1.5.0 renderproto >= 0.11 xextproto >= 7.2.99.901

Requested ‘xproto >= 7.0.28’ but version of Xproto is 7.0.26
Requested ‘randrproto >= 1.5.0’ but version of RandrProto is 1.4.0

I’m not sure what to do with these errors. The “proto” packags are nothing that I can install -devel packages for as these packages are not even present on the Packages directory that I see.

Any thoughts how I might get the Xorg server running on the “Intel HD”
graphics of the NUC5C?

Thanks,

Jerry

  • You haven’t explained the problem you are trying to solve. I assume your hardware is not supported?

    Which version of which package does not support your hardware? At what version was support added?

    No point updating that, it’s already at that version in the distro:

    $ rpm -q xorg-x11-drv-intel xorg-x11-drv-intel-2.99.917-8.20150615.el7.x86_64

  • All intel embedded graphics is “HD”, but there have been a lot of generations of it..

    Your NUC 5C has the Braswell based Celeron N3050, which apparently has the 8th generation of this, also known as HD400, this is way new stuff, I have no idea whether or not Linux has caught up with it yet, or if they have, whether its available for CentOS 7… Some googling talks about Linux kernels 4.1+ supporting it, thats much newer than EL7.

  • Adding this to the boot – does not make it work on straight 7.2

    I saw information about this – but it is mentioned on the page I
    included that this was no longer needed with the files listed in the link.

    The kernel 4.4 installs and runs fine on the NUC5C. Its the xorg-server package that is is my issue. Everything else ran fine.

    The problem I’m trying to solve is getting the NUC 5C to run X on 7.2.

    I “realize” that is all newer hardware – but if its possible it’s beneficial.

    I just need to figure out how to compile the X server it was giving an error.

    Thanks,

  • I have an older intel card (845G) that works _correctly_ only with the newer kernels (3.17+) with everything else being CentOS 6 stock. The elrepo kernel-ml made this much easier to support. http://elrepo.org/tiki/kernel-ml http://elrepo.org/tiki/kernel-lt I don’t know if you need all the other new packages you built and installed, but at least you will not have to be compiling the kernel for yourself if you use the elrepo packages. Note: although I am using the el6 packages, they have el7 packages. http://elrepo.org/linux/kernel/el7/x86_64/RPMS/
