[gentoo-user] DRI doesn't work with Radeon XPress 200M and opensource Drivers

[Jerônimo Backes]

I've tried everthing I found on google and the forums and still can't find the way to make DRI work with my ATI Radeon XPress 200M and the opensource drivers. I don't want to install the closed source because I want to use beryl, and these drivers can't do the job, AFAIK. So, here I am, trying to figure out what is going wrong. I made everything I could think of. My Xorg.conf (the interesting part) Code: Section "Module"         [...]         Load    "dri"         Load    "drm"                Load    "glx"         [...] EndSection [...] Section "Device"         Identifier      "ATI Technologies, Inc. Radeon Xpress 200M (RS480)"         Driver          "radeon"         BusID           "PCI:1:5:0"         Option          "RenderAccel" "on"         Option          "XAANoOffscreenPixmaps" "true"         Option          "AccelMethod" "XAA"         Option          "AccelDFS"      "1"         Option          "GARTSize"      "64"         Option           "AGPMode"               "4"         Option           "EnablePageFlip"        "1"         Option           "ColorTiling"           "1"         Option           "dri"   "true"         Option           "AGPFastWrite"  "1"        EndSection Section "DRI"         Mode    0666 EndSection [...] #composite is disabled Modules I have enabled in the kernel and that are loaded by /etc/modules.autoload.d/kernel-2.6: Code: agpgart amd64-agp drm     #this one was built by emerge x11-drm radeon #this one too Dmesg doesn't show anything. However, /var/log/Xorg.0.log shows this: Code: [...] (--) RADEON(0): Chipset: "ATI Radeon XPRESS 200M 5955 (PCIE)" (ChipID = 0x5955) (--) RADEON(0): Linear framebuffer at 0xc0000000 (II) RADEON(0): PCI card detected (II) RADEON(0): Direct rendering broken on XPRESS 200 and 200M [...] (WW) RADEON(0): Direct rendering disabled (**) RADEON(0): Setting up final surfaces (**) RADEON(0): Initializing Acceleration (II) RADEON(0): Render acceleration unsupported on Radeon 9500/9700 and newer.
