ATI Radeon Mobility M9 Lf (AGP) LCD<->CRT
Hi, I'm trying to get the CRT output to work on higher resolution(s) than 640x480. The LCD is capable of doing 1400x1050 but I am just clueless as how to do and what to do so that I can get a hold of that d*mn CRT output. I've tried different XF86Config-4 setups to no avail... I'm running Debian sid, XFree86 4.2 with Michael Daenzer' -trunk packages: ii xserver-xfree86-dri-trunk 2003.05.04-1 The XFree86 X server [DRI trunk] BTW, DRI works fine (glxgears gives around 2233 fps - is that OK or should I get more?), with glxinfo saying: OpenGL vendor string: Tungsten Graphics, Inc. OpenGL renderer string: Mesa DRI R200 20030328 AGP 4x x86/MMX+/SSE2 TCL OpenGL version string: 1.3 Mesa 5.0.1 (why R200? Mobility 9000 is R250, isn't it?) lspci says: 00:01.0 PCI bridge: Intel Corp. 82845G/GL [Brookdale-G] Chipset AGP Bridge (rev 03) 01:00.0 VGA compatible controller: ATI Technologies Inc Radeon R250 Lf [Radeon Mobility 9000 M9] (rev 01) So my question to you is if The X Strike Force and/or GATOS projects can help me there in any way ( CRT tweaking and/or DRI tweaking to get more FPS). I'm willing to test patches and/or slightly more experimental code if needed. Also, any hints/pointers to proper documentation about setting up that CRT is welcome (unfortunately XF86Config-4, X and XFree86 man pages lack such info =| ) Thanks a lot.

Hi, > > is there any chance for gatos deb's for i386 and powerpc? > What do you need it for? If it's about Mach64, try > deb http://penguinppc.org/~daenzer/debian/dri-mach64/ ./ I would need 2d acceleration for my ATI Radeon 7200 (VIVO 64MB DDR) very bad. I'd like to dive myself into Quake 3 mapping with GTKRadiant map editor, but I can't since the ati driver shipped with the current xserver, does not contains any 2d acceleration... Are there any plans for integrating gatos 2d aacceleration into the xfree6 project's next debian release. Thanks. Regs, Csan PS: pls Cc: me, thx.

Hey guys, Michael's dri-trunk stuff works. Splendid... ! This is actually the first time GTKRadiant and Quake3 works at the same time! I am extremely excited and thankful to you. (Especially Michael? :)) And thanks for the explanatin, Mike, it helped a lot to understand what was going on. :) I'd already tried to use the gatos binaries in my Debian context several times before, but I could never get both Quake3 and GTKRadiant to run without having to switch back and forth between the gatos and debian ati drivers (maybe I hadn't tried disabling DRI, but that is now all history for me). I'm looking forward to a clean XFre86 4.3.0 .deb set (when does the 6 months devcycle end? :)) Keep up the good work! and take care... I'm heading back now enjoying Quake3 mapping :) Cheers, Csan Janos Holanyi Association of Hungarian Linux Users Email: csaniATlme.linux.hu Quoting Michel Dänzer <[EMAIL PROTECTED]>: > On Sun, 2002-08-25 at 07:20, Mike A.
