 Then you may need to use a different xorg-server version.  If that
 doesn't pose a major problem, then

 # emerge -C xorg-server
 # emerge -D ati-drivers

 Simply installing the ati-drivers should automatically pull in the
 newest xorg-server that they will work with.  There's a thread somewhere
 on forums.gentoo.org, and another one a while back on gentoo-dev,
 explaining the reason for the block.

 When I first started with the ati-drivers, Xorg 6.8 was the latest
 available, but they would only work with 6.7 - so we had to wait until
 ATI released a new version before we could use 6.8.

 Waiting a few weeks for the very latest xorg-server build won't kill you.
 ;)

Ok, I'll try not to die in the meanwhile :)
Thanks!

[gentoo-user] troubles with ati-drivers-8.25.18

2006-06-13 Thread Mauro Arnoldi
Hello!

I installed a new Gentoo system, but I find big problems with ati drivers and 
3D acceleration. I have followed the wiki howto but now I receive this error

(/dev/agpgart must be enabled as module).
I Hope it will help.

After you have changed your kernel configuration, I suppose you

Did you enable via chipset support in Character Devices ( then modprobe

This usually means you need to re-merge ati-drivers.  You have to do
this every time you upgrade to a new kernel.

As far as the 2.6.16 support, I find this in
/usr/portage/x11-drivers/ati-drivers/ChangeLog:

*ati-drivers-8.24.8 (17 Apr 2006)

So it looks like whatever patches are needed are already applied by
Gentoo.  Try it and report back if it fails.

A little OT:
What if I do not have any agp, but pci-express graphics?

 This usually means you need to re-merge ati-drivers.  You have to do
 this every time you upgrade to a new kernel.

 As far as the 2.6.16 support, I find this in
 /usr/portage/x11-drivers/ati-drivers/ChangeLog:

 *ati-drivers-8.24.8 (17 Apr 2006)
 snip
   21 Mar 2006; Jory A. Pratt [EMAIL PROTECTED]
   +files/ati-drivers-8.23.7-noiommu.patch, ati-drivers-8.23.7.ebuild:
   2.6.16 support wrt bug#122335

 So it looks like whatever patches are needed are already applied by
 Gentoo.  Try it and report back if it fails.
 

 My ati drivers doesn't want to compile:

 #emerge -pv ati-drivers

 These are the packages that would be merged, in order:

 Calculating dependencies... done!

Yes, it seems that there is a problem between xorg-server-1.0.99 and
ati-drivers; :-(

But for me doesn't work both the closed and the open source drivers! Well, I 
suppose I have to wait the next release...

Then you may need to use a different xorg-server version.  If that 
doesn't pose a major problem, then


# emerge -C xorg-server
# emerge -D ati-drivers

Simply installing the ati-drivers should automatically pull in the 
newest xorg-server that they will work with.  There's a thread somewhere 
on forums.gentoo.org, and another one a while back on gentoo-dev, 
explaining the reason for the block.


When I first started with the ati-drivers, Xorg 6.8 was the latest 
available, but they would only work with 6.7 - so we had to wait until 
ATI released a new version before we could use 6.8.


Waiting a few weeks for the very latest xorg-server build won't kill you. ;)

   Hello!
  
   I installed a new Gentoo system, but I find big problems with ati
   drivers and 3D acceleration. I have followed the wiki howto but now I
   receive this error message
  
   #fglrxinfo
   Xlib:  extension XFree86-DRI missing on display :0.0.
   display: :0.0  screen: 0
   OpenGL vendor string: Mesa project: www.mesa3d.org
   OpenGL renderer string: Mesa GLX Indirect
   OpenGL version string: 1.2 (1.5 Mesa 6.5)
  
   I saw the Troubleshooting:
   If fglrxinfo says mesa3d.org instead of ATI after A SUCCESSFUL
   modprobe of fglrx, but nothing changes.
   I include my configuration, hoping that someone can help me out of
   this mess...
  
   kernel version: 2.6.16-gentoo-r9
   in Character Devices:
   /dev/agpgart (AGP Support)  M
   ATI chipset support M
  
   Hi,
  
   I think  you have to disable ATI chipset support in Character Devices
   (/dev/agpgart must be enabled as module).
   I Hope it will help.
  
   Nothing changed:
 
  After you have changed your kernel configuration, I suppose you
  recompiled your kernel ?
  Did you enable via chipset support in Character Devices ( then modprobe
  via-agp) ?
  After compiling ati-drivers, did you run
  eselect opengl set ati ?

 eselect is ok:

 #eselect opengl list
 Available OpenGL implementations:
   [1]   ati *
   [2]   xorg-x11

 Why do I have to compile via chipset support? I have and Ati Radeon X300 in
 my laptop..

set kernel .config these lines

CONFIG_AGP=y
CONFIG_AGP_AMD64=y  (this in question)
CONFIG_AGP_INTEL=y 
# CONFIG_DRM is not set (this is must have)

set in xorg.conf
Driver  fglrx

dont use x11-base/xorg-x11-7.1


good luck
