-----BEGIN PGP SIGNED MESSAGE----- Hash: SHA1 Howdy List,
I'm trying to setup Debian Etch on a new Dell Inspiron 1501. X is working great so far, except that I cannot get DRI enabled. I can modprobe radeon and tell the xorg.conf to use the radeon driver, but glxinfo still reports no DRI. Looking in the xorg.log file it says screen :0 is not dri capable. So I have tried adjusting refresh rates and resolution and everything but still the same error message. Finally I realized that it is not creating a /dev/dri/card0 device. I am assuming 'it' would be udev, in this instance, probably because there is no '*_agp' module loaded. So I tried loading each of the *_agp modules present in the 2.6.18-4-amd64 kernel but still no /dev/dri/card0. I have seen others say they got DRI working on their 1501, so I am hoping someone knows what I need to do or maybe another 1501 user can share some config details with me. Any hints or tips? TIA & HAND, Jacob -----BEGIN PGP SIGNATURE----- Version: GnuPG v1.4.6 (GNU/Linux) iD8DBQFGZe39kpJ43hY3cTURApgkAKC/qiwMDa1OLgcs3tk5kIZ5SzFoKgCdGDUZ e+mOSUH/MZkTd/zmgH103nA= =qlzP -----END PGP SIGNATURE-----
