Hi,
I know this is a well discussed topic.. but I can't find answer to my
problem.. and I'm completely lost in all mails/forums..
I have a ATI Technologies Inc Radeon Mobility M6 LY and I been using
"radeon" driver from kernel.
In order to enable rendering, I been looking around and after no
success I was told that I should use fglrx driver from proprietary
ATI-drivers! Tried it, but no deal! Then I was again told that these
drivers were not to my card, and that radeon should made it.
So, I'm back to radeon but still no rendering. However, there's noting
saying the opposite unless:
# glxinfo | grep -i rendering
direct rendering: No
I am following this thread w/ interest as I am having similar problems.
Although I am seeing errors in my syslog file that indicate I'm not even
able to get agp going. Anyone seen something similar?
[drm] Initialized radeon 1.16.0 20050311 on minor 0: ATI Technologies
Inc M9+ 5C61 [Radeon Mobility 9200 (AGP)]
[drm:radeon_cp_init] *ERROR* radeon_cp_init called without lock held
[drm:drm_unlock] *ERROR* Process 9513 using kernel context 0
I've got a radeon mobility 9200 in my laptop and have compiled
CONFIG_AGP=m, CONFIG_AGP_INTEL=m, CONFIG_DRM=m, and CONFIG_DRM_RADEON=m.
Interestingly enough, agpgart module loads at boot but intel_agp
doesn't. Modprobe of intel_agp produces no errors, but lsmod shows it's
not loaded. Nothing in log files either. When X is started, drm and
radeon modules load up, but dri still doesn't work, probably because agp
isn't working.
Cheers,
Kevin
