Dear guys, I'm having some problems with the vga-out tricky stuff. I'm running debian unstable on a powerbook 1ghz, ati 9000.
It is not completely clear to me which are the steps to follow to have the vga-out working. What I did is to go to http://people.debian.org/~daenzer/dri-trunk-sid/ and get the following packages: xserver-xfree86-dri-trunk_2003.08.07-1_powerpc.deb xlibmesa-gl1-dri-trunk_2003.08.07-1_powerpc.deb drm-trunk-module-src_2003.08.07-1_all.deb I installed them. Then I exctracted the drm-tarball and I went to /usr/src/linux but when I ran make-kpkg modules-image, I obtain errors: dpkg-gencontrol: error: source paragraph in control info file is missing Source line dh_gencontrol: command returned error code 65280 make[2]: *** [binary-modules] Error 1 make[2]: Leaving directory `/usr/src/modules/drm-trunk' make[1]: *** [kdist_image] Error 2 make[1]: Leaving directory `/usr/src/modules/drm-trunk' Module /usr/src/modules/drm-trunk failed. Moreover following the suggestions of Jamie Wilkinson (http://lists.debian.org/debian-powerpc/2003/debian-powerpc-200308/msg00780.html) I tried to run xrandr but without any success: $ xrandr Xlib: extension "RANDR" missing on display ":0.0". maybe I missed the main point.....what's wrong? Thanx Fra
