Has anybody had any luck with x11-drivers/ati-drivers and the latest stable kernel gentoo-sources-2.6.15-r1?
I have been using the latest stable ati-drivers (8.14.13-r3) with gentoo-sources-2.6.12-r10 for a few months and it has been absolutely stable. Now a hal update seems to need at least 2.6.13, so I emerged and built 2.6.15-r1, and rebuilt all modules for it. Well, ati-drivers throws a kernel stack dump when X11 starts, so I guess there's some kind of incompatibility. Then I emerged the latest ~x86 ati-drivers (8.21.7), which seems to work at first sight, but hangs when I logout. Actually, kdm starts the first time, but hangs after the logout. I am still able to login by ssh, though. The symptoms are pretty similar to a few bugs on b.g.o not yet solved. Any insights would be greatly appreciated (or working combinations of kernel and driver versions). -- Remy Remove underscore and suffix in reply address for a timely response. -- gentoo-user@gentoo.org mailing list
