Re: [gentoo-user] ATI radeon problems

Sebastian Günther a gentiment tapote: * Jacques Montier (jacques.mont...@numericable.fr) [08.04.09 11:27]: Hi all, I have two major problems with my 9600 ATI (RV350) graphic card - With the free radeon driver (x11-drivers/xf86-video-ati-6.12.1-r1) : After few minutes, while emerging or working with some software (Gimp), %CPU increases and then X completely freezes. Then reset... :-( - The proprietary ATI driver (x11-drivers/ati-drivers-8.582) can't compile with gentoo-sources-2.6.28-r4. It asks me to set CONFIG_PCI_MSI=y in the kernel config. But there is no CONFIG_PCI_MSI line in the .config !!! Is CONFIG_PCI=y present? If set to =n the all PCI things are not configured... CONFIG_ARCH_SUPPORTS_MSI=y should also be there, for this an internal check if your platform has the possibility to use MSI. Any idea that would help me ? Maybe a make menuconfig could be a little more informative for you. Thank you very much, Sebastian #CONFIG_ARCH_SUPPORTS_MSI is not set, and i don't see the line in make menuconfig. I suppose i have to select another option to make it appear, but i can't find the good one... Thanks -- Jacques
