FreeBSD 7.0 Release Graphic card : ATI RV350 Radeon 9600 M10 Rev 0 Xorg 1.4.0
Hello, I had a problem with the driver for the ATI Mobility 9600. At the start of the X Server, the system froze ! To solve this problem, I performed the operations listed below: 1) update the ports # portsnap fetch update 2) remove the xf86-video-ati package 2.1) detect version # pkg_version -v | grep xf86-video-ati xf86-video-ati-x.x.x x.x.x : version of package 2.2) delete package # pkg_delete xf86-video-ati.x.x.x 3) make and install new driver # cd /usr/ports/x11-driver/xf86-video-ati #make ... #make install 4) create new xorg config file (choose radeon driver) # xorgconfig 5) modify xorg config file ( /etc/X11/xorg.conf ) 5.1) modify device section Section "Device" Identifier "** ATI Radeon (Generic) [radeon]" Driver "radeon" VideoRam 131072 Option "DRI" "no" # Add this line BusID "PCI:1:0:0" # Add this line, for find the bus address use "pciconf -lv" EndSection 6) start server # startx Normaly, the X server now works ---- I tested with drm, it's ok. If you want to use the drm, here's how: 1) modify /etc/X11/xorg.conf, in section "Module" add: Load "drm" Load "radeon" # I'm not sure... 2) load radeon module # kldload radeon 3) start X server # startx _______________________________________________ [email protected] mailing list http://lists.freebsd.org/mailman/listinfo/freebsd-hardware To unsubscribe, send any mail to "[EMAIL PROTECTED]"
